We've just checked out after staying 4 nights. There were a few things that made me growl.......The receptionists were comically unfriendly - I think the head receptionist on the day we checked in could teach Basil Fawlty a thing or two! We were allocated a twin room, despite mentioning we were honeymooners, but with a bit of persistance they eventually found us a double instead.
The breakfast was OK, your usual hotel buffet, but they really need to get some covers for the fruit, pastries and jams as they were covered with flies.
The whole place seemed a bit pricey - I called housekeeping for an iron, only to be told that they 'don't provide that service' but I could send my clothes to be pressed (40Bt for a skirt. To put that into perspective, the laundry at the entrance to the hotel charges 60Bt to iron 1kg!). Plus the internet was astronomically expensive compared to the cafes nearby.
Finally - we requested a late check-out - they gave us an extra hour. At 12:45 we had a porter knocking on our door wanting our bags. When I explained we weren't ready he waited outside the room, knocking twice more (just in case, I guess) - loads of points for enthusiasm, but we weren't particulaly impressed.
Having said that, the rest of the Ao Nang Villa in Krabi staff were really friendly and helpful, the pool was great (and empty!), plus the hotel's in a good position for the restaurants and bars in Ao Nang, and the boats to Railay and Phi Phi. It's a bit over-priced and popular with tour groups, but if the price was right I'd stay again (if only to have a laugh at the receptionists!)
stayed July 5th till July 8th 2004...
stayed July 5th till July 8th 2004 in Deluxe room.
Nothing "Deluxe" about it. Just a fancy name. Only good thing about it is direct acces to the swimming pool, but lots of heavy construction going on, with pneumatic hammers and drills from 08.00 a.m. till 05.30 p.m.so relaxation at the pool is IMPOSSIBLE:
Staff at reception arrogant. The other staff friendly and helpfull
Breakfeast (buffet) has all the usual, but nothing special.
Location is perfect.
Better value is right next door in "Golden Beach Resort" at only 200 Baht more.
Would not recommend this hotel to anybody !!!

Stayed 5th till 8th July in "Deluxe " room. Not much deluxe about it, just a fancy name. There is also a lot of heavy construction work going on, refurbishing one wing to Spa. From 08.00 Hrs till 17.30 pneumatic hammers and drills spoiling the serenity of a holliday in Krabi. However the location is perfect, immediatly on the beach and close proximity to the beach promenade with shops and restaurants galore. This is my 7th stay in Krabi but next year I will move to the hotel right next door i.e. The Golden Beach resort, which is just a triffle more expensive but offers a lot more. All in all not my best experience in Krabi and I would NOT recommend this hotel. Ao Nang however remains a magical place.

STAYED HERE IN 2003.IT WAS FANTASTIC.SO QUIET AND RELAXING.VERY GOOD VALUE A TASTFULL HOTEL CLOSE TO LOVLEY BEACH.NO CONSTRUCTION WORK AT ALL.FROM HERE WENT TO PHI PHI NOW THAT WAS A NIGHTMARE.
WARNING : As of 12-Nov-02 Ao Nang...
WARNING : As of 12-Nov-02 Ao Nang Villa undergoing serious
construction work to the rear which many of the appartments look out on to. Expect serious noise from 7:30am - 11:00pm. Noise can also be heard from the breakfast area by all guests not just those with an unfortunate view of the work !
Still looked like alot of work to be done, would reckon on giving it a wide berth for at least 6 months from our date of travel.
