Holiday Ao Nang Beach Resort, Krabi

Parijat Sharma

An exceptional experience from start to finish. The resort is beautifully maintained, with stunning surroundings and a truly relaxing atmosphere. The rooms are luxurious, spotless, and thoughtfully designed, offering both comfort and privacy. What really sets this place apart is the service—warm, attentive, and consistently professional without ever feeling intrusive. Every interaction felt welcoming, and the staff went out of their way to ensure the stay was memorable. The check-in time at the hotel was long like it took around 20 mins for the lady to type in all the details but I think that is necessary for all international travellers The food was excellent, the amenities were top-notch, and the overall experience was exactly what a resort stay should be: peaceful, indulgent, and refreshing. I would highly recommend this resort and would absolutely return. The shrimp pineapple fried rice was top notch at the restaurant.

We stayed at this hotel as a family with our 3 year old and 1 year old children and absolutely loved it. We had a room with direct pool access, which was perfect for us. The kids especially enjoyed the slides and had a great time around the hotel. Breakfast was good with plenty of options. The location is excellent for boat tours, as most depart right in front of the hotel and the long-tail boat service to Railay Beach is also just in front. The night market is only a 5-minute walk. Overall, a fantastic stay for families.

Our family recently stayed at this resort for 2 nights. In our 12 nights in Thailand, this hotel was by far the most expensive we stayed in and we were really hoping to have an amazing experience, but we didn't. The facility was nice and the employees were kind but our issue was with the room. On our first night, our key card malfunctioned in the middle of the night and shut off all electricity to the room, resulting in our AC turning off and our devices not getting charged. When we notified the front desk in the morning, they fixed the key card for us and assured us that we would have no more issues. Well the 2nd night, the key card malfunctioned again, but this time all of the lights in the room turned on randomly for a total of 4 times before we decided to pull the key card out. Needless to say all of our sleep was disturbed all 4 times and everyone woke up tired. We had a shuttle to catch in the morning when we checked out so I wasn't able to discuss our issue with the manager in person, but sent an email letting them know about our experience and asking for them to consider giving us a partial refund for our troubles. After several days, management emailed me and basically let me know that they were sorry but couldn't offer us any refund. Given that this resort cost us more than double what we paid in any other hotel in our entire vacation, the fact that we got poor sleep both nights there was really disappointing and some compensation would have been nice. Needless to say, we can't recommend this resort, nor will we ever stay here again.

Very nice hotel in Ao Nang. We asked for interconnecting rooms, which they didn’t have, but they gave us adjacent rooms. Because these were different rooms than what we ordered, they gave us a free rollaway bed. The rooms were a bit far back, which wasn’t bad, but they seem to store beds and carts there, which wasn’t bad quite annoying. The only things is that they felt a bit cheap - everything cost money, especially water, and you get basically no “perk”. Every small thing costs a bit (kids want to draw? 120 baht). There was a very large free!! new year’s dinner, with shows and free food, but even there, water cost 150 baht. Not huge, but just annoyingly cheap feeling. Great location, you cross the road to take a 100 baht longtail to Railay beach, but we also saw people swimming in Ao Nang. Five minutes walk to the night market, lots of food stands, shows, etc. Breakfast was good, lots of variety, and they make eggs for you, in addition to many fruit, drinks, etc. Great experience overall!

Very Disappointing Experience – Not Family Friendly at All We booked this hotel three months in advance, paying over USD 500 per night, expecting a comfortable family-friendly stay. Unfortunately, the reality was completely different and extremely disappointing. First surprise: breakfast was not included, for reasons no one could clearly explain. We were traveling with two children (5 and 11 years old) and always book hotels with breakfast included, especially at this price level. Second and more serious issue: the room. We booked a “family room”, which turned out to be very small. When we asked where the beds for the children were supposed to be, we were told that all four of us should sleep in one king-size bed. This is absolutely unacceptable and feels like false advertising. The experience at reception made things worse. The receptionist was rude and unhelpful, and communication was extremely difficult. We repeatedly asked her to repeat herself because her English was not understandable. For an international hotel charging premium rates, front-desk staff should be properly trained in customer service and basic English communication. Another unpleasant detail: the hotel entrance constantly smells of sewage, which is shocking for a hotel in this category. Regarding facilities for children: the hotel advertises a kids club, but in reality around 90% of the activities require extra payment. Advertising a kids club as “available” without clearly stating that almost everything is paid is misleading. The kids club is empty all the time even with whatever activities such as "movie night" because it has nothing to do with REAL kids club where assigned people making activities for the kids!!! For the dot activity was given piece of paper and pencils to draw, no support, no supervision. If you are looking for the kids club better to go to Bali! Or you train your staff to do it right way!!! Finally, we were told that pools and slides are not free to use, and that we had to purchase food or drinks from the pool café in order to access them. This was never mentioned at booking and is completely unreasonable. Overall, this hotel feels like a series of hidden costs and misleading promises. Definitely not suitable for families, and certainly not worth the price. Avoid this hotel, especially if you are traveling with children!!!!
