A Perfect Peaceful Escape — Highly Recommended (from Canadian travelers!) We stayed 6 nights at Leelawadee Garden Resort in Krabi, and it was easily one of the best parts of our trip to Thailand. As Canadians looking for some peace and quiet after a very hectic stay in Phuket, this resort delivered exactly what we hoped for — and more. The property features eight beautiful freestanding units(cottages), each with its own kitchen, comfortable living room, cozy bedroom, and a spacious bath and shower. The resort grounds are absolutely stunning and immaculately maintained, creating a peaceful oasis that instantly puts you at ease. The owners, Paul and Bo, were exceptional hosts. They went above and beyond to help us make the most of our stay — from arranging a personal long-tail boat for a 4-island tour, to recommending (and reserving) a table at one of the best restaurants we visited during our entire holiday. They were always available with helpful suggestions and were genuinely invested in making sure we enjoyed our time. We also loved the resort’s location. It’s roughly equal distance between Ao Nang(busy, touristy, party vibes) or Krabi Town (authentic, local, peaceful, cheaper). We used the rideshare service Grab throughout our stay — affordable, efficient, and consistently quick with pickups no matter where we were. Our cottage was spotlessly clean, the bed was very comfortable, and the air conditioning worked perfectly — ideal for a good night’s sleep after long days of exploring. Overall, Leelawadee Garden Resort exceeded our expectations in every way. If you’re looking for a peaceful, beautiful, and well-hosted stay in the Krabi area, we can’t recommend it enough.
