Hotel Family Friendly Krabi

Beyond Krabi was beyond beautiful. The entire staff was so warm and friendly, especially Chet. The food and drinks were great, three pool was sparkling bright and can't beat that amazing view. Would 10/10 recommend this place and will be staying again.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and unfortunately, my experience were disappointing. Pros: • The air conditioning was cold enough, which was a plus. • Due to hotel room unavailability, we booked a twin bedroom, but the staff kindly offered to join the beds into a double bed upon our arrival, which we appreciated. Cons: • The bathroom was clogged, and water drained very slowly. When we reported it to the staff, they claimed it was due to an uneven bathroom floor, but this was not the case. • There was absolutely no soundproofing. Everyday from 7-8 AM, loud knocking sounds (as if renovation work was happening) could be heard, along with people opening and closing doors loudly, talking, and walking outside. It was impossible to get a good rest. • The ”Do Not Disturb” button in our room was broken, so we informed the receptionist that we did not need housekeeping for two days. However, despite this, housekeeping still entered and cleaned the room while we were out. • From the online pictures, the hotel appeared to have a beautiful lobby and pool area, but we didn't expect that our room type would be located in a separate building. This building was further from the lobby and pool area, and its overall appearance was not as nice as the main lobby area. Our balcony view was facing a building wall—definitely not what we expected. • The walkway in this separate building was dirty, and the housekeeping tray was always left outside, right next to our room door. Additionally, the staff’s housekeeping room was also right next to our room, which may explain why it was so noisy early in the morning. Overall, I would not recommend staying here if the room is located in the separate building without elevator access. Perhaps the rooms facing the pool and accessible by elevator offer a better experience.

Without question, the most wonderful hotel we have ever stayed at. With our own private villa and private pool overlooking the ocean and Hong Island, we were literally in paradise for our stay. Being welcomed with an incredible view at the hotel lobby, we were greeted by the warmest of staff who were so helpful. Not just with things at the hotel but organizing airport transfers, day trips and anything else we needed. Krabi was great but Banyan Tree, Krabi was sensational. The breakfast buffet has absolutely everything you could wish for, including a make-your-own Bloody Mary/Mimosa station! The Saffron restaurant was exquisite with exceptional cocktails of which I had never heard of and the spa is something out of this world. The hotel looks, feels and even smells amazing every corner you turn. Lighting around the beach bar and beachfront: stunning. Day tour on a private longboat: stunning. Banyan Tree, Krabi: stunning.

The hotel has a very nice pool with poolside drinks and food service. There are early morning/early evening complimentary yoga and other wellness lessons. There is a child playground and indoor creche (presumably not complimentary). The lobby is up an elevated driveway from the street. To get to your building, there are more outside steps. So, this hotel is not for you if you have limited mobility. Having said that, there is a hotel 'golf cart' available to move you plus your luggage. Then there is the location. There is a wide choice of eating places, some with live music. Ao Nang beach is just 10min walk away. This is where you catch boat trips to the other islands. All in all, the hotel met all my expectations. The world is too big for me to return in the near future. But if i did, I would rebook the Holiday Inn.

We had lovely stay. Great location . Nice atmosphere, we sleep in bungalow so good experience close to nature ❤️ beautiful view . Only one minus no restaurant or at least bar where you can get some cocktails , cold drinks or snacks

The location is very good, the room is very clean, and the price/performance ratio is very high. It is very good for a transitional hotel. I asked the front desk to help arrange a taxi to the airport one day in advance. Thank you very much

Excellent hotel staff very friendly and professional. They noticed from my passport that the 2nd day was my birthday. When I came up from the pool late afternoon there was a birthday cake in the fridge. Very nice touch and excellent attention to detail. The food was great and breakfast had plenty of choice. Highly recommend.

Breakfast- smaller selection than usual five stars but it was high quality.  Activities- so much to do if you’re into fitness! Hyrox, Spartan, HITT, Muay Thai, rock climbing (some have surcharges- need to Check) Service- I found this lacking in terms of front desk service and phone as everything you are asked to dial 0. Maybe it’s the language barrier. Ten step onsen- only available 2 timings/day 11am and 5pm so you really have to plan your time around it which was annoying so we did not end up doing  Late check out- not available! Allowed to use facilities, only open shower available and change at the spa.  Beach club- free use of bean bags for hotel guest. But usage of pool is chargeable with minimum spend (depending where you choose to sit it’s a different price) free activities for hotel guest- kayak, paddle board, padel )  Pool- take note pool not allowed for kids below 12. I found the hotel very stingy with towels. Also lack service. Nobody comes to you to offer menu and ask what you’d like, I had to look high and low for attention.  As you walk out from Varana. there are some restaurant options (6-8 restaurants) very affordable.  Overall, we had a good time but lacked the magic somehow.

Beautiful hotel, close to everything you need. They offer amazing activities and plenty of restaurants/bars/shops are around.  The Staff is super attentive and you’re always greeted with a big smile.

The service was incredible, the hotel was designed with a lot of stylistic consistency and attention to detail without compromising on comfort. The staff were very kind, helpful, and pleasant to be around. The food in the restaurant and the morning was amazing. I wish I could use other words besides “amazing” for everything, but it is just an accurate description of our (me and my wife’s) experience there. The location is great! Its close enough to key parts of the area, yet intelligently distanced (around 50-100 meters) away from the action so that the noise of everything never disturbed us during days we preferred the quiet. 10/10 on all parameters. Special thanks to the team of the hotel which were the key part of our personal feeling around our stay.
