Krabi Sands Resort

“A wonderful place to stay in Klong Muang. Close to lots of beach bars and restaurants. Really relaxing place.”

We just stayed here for 2 weeks and really couldn’t fault the place. Jan in reception has a big smile and a warm welcome and is happy to help you with anything you need throughout your stay.

We just stayed here for 2 weeks and really couldn’t fault the place. Jan in reception has a big smile and a warm welcome and is happy to help you with anything you need throughout your stay. The rooms are cleaned and the bath & pool towels are replaced daily. The hotel was built by the owner 20 years ago and you can tell they’ve spent a lot of time making the gardens beautiful. We loved the location as it’s right across the road from the beach where you can choose to have breakfast at their own restaurant. We did a couple of times but mostly bought the delicious fruit on the stall next to the 7/11 right next door. There is also a little stall where you can buy freshly cooked street food if you fancy it for lunch by the pool. There are plenty of bars/restaurants on the beach literally 3 minutes walk over the bridge. We found the beach around the corner to the one opposite us to be better for swimming as it’s clearer and less rocky but we enjoyed our walks along the beach when we weren’t lounging by the pool or having a massage under the trees on the beach. You can easily get Tuk tuks and taxis if you fancy going into Aonang night market as it’s not far at all. I would definitely come back here again I enjoyed every minute

We really enjoyed our 4 night stay at Krabi Sands. The bungalow was clean., comfortable and well equipped. The grounds and pool were spotless. All the staff were friendly and helpful especially Jan who was always smiling and happy to help. Our fridge stopped working and another one provided in 10 minutes. Breakfast was taken in their restaurant across the road and was a good buffet with eggs cooked to order. They even bought muesli for my husband when he asked for it. We ate all our evening meals there as well as the food was fresh, good quality and a good price. The only problem was finding it in the first place. The satnav sent us 5km further down the road. Apparently you have to put in The Krabi Sands not just Krabi Sands to get you there. The beach at the hotel is not very good for swimming. We found beach Anderlay just up the road which was quiet with plenty of parking.

“Let down after 10 years”

This has always been my first choice resort, unfortunately, this trip was a little disappointing. The swimming pool floor (at entry points) has started to disintegrate and loose, sharp chippings dug into the soles of my feet making it almost impossible to walk into the pool, I had to slip off the wall at the deeper part. Pool chairs had been set up 10ft from my chalet doors and people placed towels on them early morning, meaning my kids had to keep their curtains closed. It was like being in a cave - not what a family comes to the beach for. I eventually had to get up at 5am to place towels on our own poolside chairs to keep people away - no manners at all. I booked these two chalet for the family but shared them with others who wanted to sit in this spot all day. They did not sit in their own poolside chairs. I actually watched the same couple come out every morning and put towels on chairs early morning because they were in the sun and their own chairs were not in the morning. It was impossible to get a nice shower, the water was either too hot or too cold - adjusting the flow 50/50 was not an option. This made showering a 6 year old a little difficult. I come here most years but my next trip may well be to a different resort. A shame after all these years.
