Hotel 5-Star di Krabi Province, Thailand

My stay exceeded my expectations and truly lived up to the reputation of Banyan Tree. I would especially like to thank Zen at the front desk, Teya at the Spa, and Lek at the beach counter for making my experience even more perfect and memorable. I will definitely stay at Banyan Tree again on my next visit to Krabi.

Amazing location! Beautiful scenery. There's a small village behind the resort that is worth checking out. It offers a little more variety than on the resort which has limited options. We booked an island tour through the resort which I would highly recommend. Excellent staff, very friendly and helpful

I don’t say this often, but Hotel Adam Krabi was something else. Yes, it’s on the pricier side, but absolutely worth it. We booked the Mountain View room with a balcony pool, and it was just next level—massive space, an indoor-outdoor bathroom, and a seamless shower-to-pool setup that felt like pure luxury. The whole hotel is an Instagram dream—stunning design, beautifully curated spaces, and a rooftop pool and bar that’s perfect for sunset. The floating breakfast was incredible, the bed was insanely comfortable (slept like a rock), and everything about this stay just worked. Special shoutout to Tia, who was warm, welcoming, and full of spot-on food recommendations. Leaving this place feels way too soon, but if there’s ever a reason to come back to Krabi, this is it.

Breakfast- smaller selection than usual five stars but it was high quality.  Activities- so much to do if you’re into fitness! Hyrox, Spartan, HITT, Muay Thai, rock climbing (some have surcharges- need to Check) Service- I found this lacking in terms of front desk service and phone as everything you are asked to dial 0. Maybe it’s the language barrier. Ten step onsen- only available 2 timings/day 11am and 5pm so you really have to plan your time around it which was annoying so we did not end up doing  Late check out- not available! Allowed to use facilities, only open shower available and change at the spa.  Beach club- free use of bean bags for hotel guest. But usage of pool is chargeable with minimum spend (depending where you choose to sit it’s a different price) free activities for hotel guest- kayak, paddle board, padel )  Pool- take note pool not allowed for kids below 12. I found the hotel very stingy with towels. Also lack service. Nobody comes to you to offer menu and ask what you’d like, I had to look high and low for attention.  As you walk out from Varana. there are some restaurant options (6-8 restaurants) very affordable.  Overall, we had a good time but lacked the magic somehow.

Stayed 3 nights at Dusit. Had a pleasent experience overall. Breakfast selection was decent enough. Rooms were clean and spacious. The staff working there were all amazing! Very friendly and helpful. Hotel amenities were awesome though. Hotel comes with complimentary workout classes and water sports for those interested. The pools were huge with more than enough sunbeds spread throughout the pools and beach. The private beach at the resort is amazing as well. Its never busy and had awesome views of sunsets. But be prepared to walk alot in this resort as it is such a huge compund. You can request a buggy but it may take a while. Not the most convenient in terms of location but it is to be expected for a private resort. There are decent restaurants nearby if you want other places to eat other than at the resort. This is the place for anyone looking to relax and zen out. Would choose to stay there again just for the vibes and serenity.

If you’re in much need of a holiday and don’t wish to worry about organising activities and finding a group of people to travel with, Sofitel Krabi Phokeethra Golf and Spa Resort is the perfect place. There are numerous activities organised by the Resort which one can enjoy solo. I enjoyed Thai boxing and snorkelling for the first time. The meals offered by the resort were simply exquisite. I would describe the breakfast as a utopia…it was incredibly amazing and luxurious. Those in the activities team took good care of the excursion group, even helped with snorkelling for the first time. Everything felt safe, food was bountiful and I was able to enjoy new experiences… it was simply the perfect stay!

Warm and great hospitality. Fully pledged facilities at the resort. Well planned airport transfer which is seamless. Great food served everytime and attention to details even for family with young kids. Lush greenery and close to nature/seafront. Will definitely make a return trip with Pimalai. Great effort and well done, team Pimalai!

We choose to stay at this place, expected for a peaceful and excellecnce service. However, when we arrived the hotel, no one were at the front entrance to welcone and taking care of parking and our luggages, we need to walk into the Hotel at front desk to get attention. Tge front desk also tried to finish check-in process so quickly, just to finish the process and not even offer any welcome drink. This is first time I've experience bad treat by this level of hotel. Seems, the good srevice and hospitality is only rumors. The breakfast variety were limited and quality of food were not great, but staff at Thai restaurant were friendly and well trained. The room and facility are quite nice, but compare to everythings we had experience this hotel is not worth to money. On the check out, again no one attend to help for our luggages, so again all being taking from the entrance to our car by ourselves. Seem there is not enough staff. Will not come back to this hotel!

The receptionist is nice. As soon as you park your car, there's a golf cart waiting to pick you up. Upon check-in, there will be a welcome drink and cold towel provided while waiting for check-in. The staff recommended it well. But when entering the room, the housekeeper didn't take out the trash from the previous customer's bathroom. The amenities in the room were very ok. There is an iron stand ready. There are a lot of various bathroom items. There's even detergent provided. But Breakfast has quite a few options. and room service is slow And in the shower room Water from the shower flows out through the door and it becomes impossible to separate the dry and wet zones. It's all wet. There's a lot of deposit here, about 3,000 baht. Overall, I really like the staff here. Good service in every depar**ent. Especially the front

We had a villa with a pool and sea view, which is simply charming, partly because the villa is less than 20 meters from the sea. There you will find a very small but nice place with 2 loungers that belong to the villa. You see too well as no people at the sea, just fantastic. The island is still very natural. We have rarely seen such a clean beach in Thailand as here. The employees of the hotel are very, very friendly and accommodating, I would say almost like a family. The dinner is the best we have eaten in Thailand. We are simply delighted and would come back at any time. An absolute recommendation!
