Krabi Sands Resort Reviews

My first hotel in Krabi 😍 very beautiful and clean rooms. There is a big swimming pool . The beach is just across the road . Ideal place to enjoy your vacation Far from the city centre .

In my opinion. This was the best place I have stayed. The location was very good, the friendly atmosphere was nice, the restaurant was great, I can recommend the local menu. We had breakfast every day, and it was more than enough. Very nice food. Everything's I needed was within a 2 minute walk. The beach was beautiful, many places to walk. Hong Island was 20 minute long tail boat ride. I would definitely book again.

Staff are friendly and helpful. The place is closed to the beach just cross the road. There is surrounding with shops, nice cafe and restaurants. One night stay was not enough for us because the beach is beautiful and quiet. Is was relaxing time there. Back there again for longer stay.

Excellent hotel, we had delicious breakfasts opposite in the cafe (American, European - payment on site) It's a couple of minutes to the sea, but we swam near the Krabi club, it's about 5 minutes along the beach. Next to the Krabi club there is a bar-cafe, we also had breakfasts there! The hotel is clean. Quiet. Pool. Everything you need is in the room. Nearby 7/11, currency exchange

The service attitude is good, the hotel is original, and the swimming pool is also good!

I like it. The room is large, very ergonomic, properly located air conditioning, comfortable bed and pillows. The shower is not separated by a partition, but you can bring rubber flip flops for the room. There is no hairdryer, but you need to carefully read the reviews - I brought it with me, you can ask at the reception. The curtains on the windows and doors, of course, are old and require replacement, but the budget for the stay is small. The hotel was apparently built about 20 years ago, the furniture is old, but good quality and comfortable. Beautiful pool. I didn’t take breakfast - 7/11, fruit stands and street food are located within a 1-minute walk. There are also plenty of restaurants nearby. The beach, where there is thick shade from the trees in the morning, is a 5-minute walk to the right, towards the Sofitel Hotel. Since there is nothing there, there were about 10 people along the entire beach line. Perfect))

Service au top…

Impressive, clean, good service, lovely staff. Welcoming and convenient to travel

Very clean, the staff is very caring.

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.

Everything is Perfect for a Nice holiday here. The Bungalow is very nice and clean. The people are so smiling and helpful. We stayed for 3 weeks and enjoyed every minute. The bedclothes were beautiful and changed ever so often. Thank you♥️🙏. Very nice breakfast and the garden is beautiful to🌴

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.

The water pressure in the shower was non existing to the point that we could seriously not have a shower, the water was merely a trickle, and having complained about it after the first attempt at having a shower nothing was done until 4 days later when I simply showed them our cancelled second booking for ten days later. We were checking out and checking in again later on in the month. Miraculously the pressure in the shower increased. My wife asked for a hair drier, and nearly electrocuted herself on trying to use it, it simply blew up in her hands. She got given a new one after again complaining about it. The Bed was seriously hard nearly as hard as sleeping on wood planks. Sitting outside on the small veranda Infront of the the room was spoiled by the very loud and annoying noise of the air conditioning compressors or the adjoining bungalow disturbing the peace. The air con was also inefficient taking hours to reduce the temperature enough and never achieving the desired setting. The whole place appeared to run on a skeleton staff who tried but only when pushed. All in all not a very satisfactory stay and although we planned to return to this hotel after a week on Koh Samui, we cancelled. On the positive site, the room was serviced daily and clean sheets and towels were supplied. The restaurant across the road belongs to the hotel and it is a nice spot, but beware, the kitchen closes at 8.45pm.
