My favorite lodging in Thailand
Krabi Klong Muang Bay View Resort (the full name) is my favorite lodging in Thailand. Mostly due to the two beautiful, kind, caring sisters, Are and Pla (if spellings are correct), who seemed to mostly run the resort, along with their wonderful family and their excellent staff. Everyone was helpful and so nice. I stayed 3 nights but when I return to Thailand I’ll come to Klong Muang just to stay here longer than the first time. The place has a great vibe. The superior double room was large with cool wooden furniture, large balcony overlooking the nice pool. The lights in the room were rather dim and should be remedied in the future. The staff kept the room and the area really clean. The wifi, unfortunately, was virtually inaccessible from the location of my room. The set breakfast offerings were good, but the items on the main menu, including the excellent made-to-order fruit shakes and coffee drinks, were great and reasonably priced, especially for a hotel/resort. The beach can be reached in a couple of minutes by foot, but it’s really rocky in that part. A walk a few minutes on the road until the next access leads to a wide open, empty beach. Or walk over the rocks. 20 minute walk along the beach or the road leads to the town square, where there are more restaurant choices. I’m glad I chose the quieter, slower place of Klong Muang Beach as opposed to Ao Nang or Krabi. I really look forward to staying at this resort again and is the main reason for a return trip there.
