Be aware: this is a MUSLIM, dry hotel. Five times a day you will hear the loud-speakers from the mosque nearby with chanting songs/ prayer call. Location is beautiful, good and quiet (except for the 5 prayer calls that start right before the sun comes up). Staff is super friendly and helpful. The pool is very nice and you can order food and non-alcoholic drinks. Buffet breakfast was good, plus they have a menu to choose from (they do delicious scrambled eggs). The room was nice and clean. A few improvements needed in the room: the decorative mosquito net over the bed gets annoyingly tugged by the pillow. The lighting in the bathroom sucks. The grounds are beautiful; just know that they have large, Asian Water Monitor lizards. Overall, a very nice place to stay.

Clean room, very friendly, good customer service, great nature view at the restaurant and free breakfast was great quality. Only downside was the loud Muslim prayer time down the street that took away from the feeling of being secluded in nature. But the rooms are pretty sound proof and I would still highly recommend the resort. Pool was really nice too. We were very happy with our stay.

The location of the resort was scenic and private but still a short walk from shops and restaurants. The pool area was very clean and easy to use. Staff went above and beyond, with food service, tuk tuk service and helping with general questions. Highly recommend!

Beautiful hotel, all staff are so lovely and helpful. Peaceful location but also easy access to main centre, bar, shops etc. this is an amazing hotel and our stay here was very memorable. Just one point that we didn’t realise until we got to the hotel, there is no alcohol sold at the property, but they don’t mind you bringing alcohol into the hotel if you want some with your meal etc.

Great stay at Krabi. I’ve been around the world. Focusing on breaches. This was by far my best stay in terms of accommodation. The design of the cottages/villas were awesome. If you have a family. They have family villas with separate rooms! We had the front outdoor kitchen. Tub. Hammock. And even the showers were nicely designed. Love this place. The front desk ensured great service. Always with a smile! Greeted with cold wet towel. Cold tea. Delicious. Pool was awesome. Restaurant/ breakfast buffet was delicious! They have shuttle daily for your convenience set distances around town. Love this place! My best ever stay!

Great location & setting, not a perfect experience

Ao Nang is great to visit but not so relaxing if you can't escape to somewhere like this! Felt like 2 stays in 1 with contrast of the lively streets and beach and returning to this mini oasis with wonderful wildlife, great room space and shared pool. Fabulous family adjoining room with massive indoor and outdoor space, probably the best of 5 hotel stays of similar budget, although this was most expensive. Would stay here again and recommend to others, but service is not as refined as other reviews suggest. Front desk great, but it takes more than friendly gardeners for rest of resort to work well and we found breakfast to be worse than other hotels, not so much quality as things not being replenished, hot food orders were muddled all 3 days, and not quite the variety of other places we've stayed (Outrigger Khao Lak tough benchmark!). Coffee in room is great but then wasn't replenished after first day, and no English breakfast in rooms even though it ran out every morning at breakfast! (And again, had to ask for it to be restocked. Staff on phone, just not alert to what needed doing.) 3 nights here felt like the optimum for us on a 2 week trip. Think would get bored much longer and there's much better places to relax on a beach like koh lanta or Lak. There aren't many good hotels in the area and this one worked for us. 80bht taxi or 20mins walk to beach, 5-10mins to restaurants and massage before you get to main strip around the corner. All very simple.

This place is magical! The grounds are quiet and beautiful and we loved the traditional feel of the cottages. Each cottage is tucked into the jungle and is immaculate and spacious. They work hard to anticipate your every need and they work hard to add that personal touch. I book according to the reviews of previous guests and often guests will claim that the staff is what makes a place exceptional. Nowhere have I stayed where this is more the case than Ban Sanai. I really got the sense that the staff are all working together to give their guests the best experience possible and are committed to developing an excellent reputation. I would return to this resort in a heartbeat. If you book, you will not be disappointed.
