The hype
Travelers love the massive rooms and peace and quiet, but often complain about the 15-20 minute walk to the beach.
Maleedee Bay Resort
$80-120/ noapte
Rezervă dacă You want a quiet, spacious sanctuary with a massive balcony away from Ao Nang's chaotic main strip, and don't mind a 15-minute walk to the beach.
De ce o iubesc oamenii
- Huge private balconies that are actually usable living spaces
- Dead silent at night compared to beachfront hotels
- Two decent-sized outdoor pools that never feel overcrowded
Privire rapidă: A solid, slightly dated 3-star sleeper hit that trades modern flash for square footage and silence.
Evaluat de @alicia_katharina: I was shocked by how much value I got here for 30€. My room was spacious, the AC was ice cold, and having a little terrace to drink my morning coffee while looking at the pool was the best way to start the day. Definitely a hidden gem in Krabi.

Reality check
The 'shuttle' runs on a fixed schedule (usually 3-4 times a day), so you will likely end up walking or paying for a tuk-tuk/Grab.
- You prioritize sleep quality over beachfront location
- You need a family-sized room without paying 5-star prices
- You plan to rent a scooter anyway
Curățenie și Întreținere
8.2
- Housekeeping: Daily cleaning is reliable, though sometimes missed spots under beds are reported.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean, but grout can be discolored and water pressure is often described as 'weak'.
- Maintenance: Aging property. Expect some peeling paint, worn wood, and older AC units.
- Linens & towels: Clean but can feel a bit worn/thin. Beach towels are provided.
- Odors & scents: Some ground floor rooms and bungalows have a lingering 'musty' or damp smell, especially in the rainy season.

The shuttle costs 100 THB per person if you want it outside of the free scheduled times.

The 'Grand Deluxe' rooms have bathtubs on the balcony in some configurations—ask for this specifically if you want it.
5 lucruri pe care trebuie să le știi înainte să pleci
💡The 'hill' to the entrance is short but steep—a pain with heavy luggage.
💡The bathroom lighting is notoriously dim, making makeup application tricky.
💡There are resident dogs/puppies on the property (usually friendly, but good to know if you're allergic).
💡WiFi can be spotty in the corner bungalows.
💡The 'pool view' rooms basically have zero privacy when the curtains are open.
