Krabi is home to some of Thailand’s most luxurious hotels, where elegant design meets the warmth of legendary Thai hospitality. Many of these high-end resorts sit along pristine beaches, offering breathtaking sea views and direct access to soft sands.
Klong Muang is a calm resort beach near Tubkaek, with no real town attached. It suits people who want to settle into one hotel, use the pool and the beach, and take a taxi to Ao Nang only when they feel like a busier night out.
Nopparat Thara is the long beach just north of Ao Nang, part of a national park and much quieter than its neighbour. It is a short drive or walk to Ao Nang for restaurants and boats, so you get the calm without being stuck for things to do.
Krabi beach hotels compared, from busy Ao Nang and clifftop Railay to the quiet resorts at Tubkaek and Klong Muang. Where to stay in Krabi and why.
Tubkaek is a quiet beach north of Ao Nang, with one of the best sunset views in Krabi looking out to the Hong islands. The resorts here are mostly upscale and low-key, set between the sand and the forested hills behind.
Ao Nang is the main beach town in Krabi and the easiest place to base yourself. Hotels range from simple guesthouses a few streets back to beachfront resorts on the main road, and the pier for island boats is right here.
Railay is reached only by longtail boat, which keeps it calm and a little cut off in a good way. Most hotels sit on or just behind West Railay beach, within a short walk of the climbing cliffs and the cave at Phra Nang.
