Guest Reviews
- Kristian (8/5): - Personalen är hjälpsamma, god mat i restaurangen. Tyvärr så ligger det allt för långt bort från samhället.
- Hani (10/5): - Booked for 19 night, fantastic set of place and a good place to stay in and away from busy, noisy parties, private beach is bonus
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Les bungalows sont très jolis et donnent directement sur une grande plage quasi déserte. Les installations sont simples et le confort minimum (électricité de 18h à 6h, pas d'eau chaude, eau de mer au robinet, les chambres ne sont pas faites pendant le séjour, carte du restaurant restreinte) mais c'est largement compensé par la tranquillité et l'accès à la plage. L'inconvénient est la localisation : on est isolés par le bras de mer et le trajet est assez long pour rejoindre les commerces et les animations.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - This was our second week long stay at this amazing property. If you want the best Thai food, beach for yourself, quiet and relaxing break - then this place is for you.
The family who runs the Bungalows is the most friendly and welcoming you will ever meet in Thailand. You will get whole bungalow for yourself, super spacious with a great bed - and even the cold shower feels refreshing after hot day on the beach. Talking about the beach, this is only 10 metres away and you will probably meet 10 other people on the 1km stretch - that's all. It is very shallow and great for swimming and shell collecting.
Make sure you eat there and to try Pad Thai, Tom Yum and Tom Ka. The juices are amazing and so is the coconut.
They also have super friendly dog Tia who will follow you everywhere you go. When we were there she was only 3 months old - very cute:-)
We are definitely coming back and you should visit!
- Stan (10/5): - Deux atouts à ce lieu : sa situation calme, assez sauvage (oiseaux multiples) et paradisiaque (loin d'être le cas des plages dans la région) même si la baignade n'est pas évidente à marée basse ; la nourriture était aussi très bonne (produits frais et bien cuisinés, plats variés).
Je recommande pour les personnes qui souhaitent un endroit plutôt sauvage et isolé pour profiter de la nature.
- HONGTAE (4/5): 환상적인 바닷가, 불편한 편의시설 - 환상적이고 조용한 바닷가에서 휴식하기 좋습니다. 그러나 단 하루면 됩니다. 그 이상은 불편합니다. 밤에만 전기가 들어오고 새벽 5시부터 저녁 6시까지는 전기가 없습니다. 그래서 숙소에 에어컨이 없어 낮에 쉬려면 더위를 참아내야 합니다. 4박5일 머물렀는데 첫 날 빼고는 생수도 숙박지에서 돈 내고 사먹어야 합니다. 음식은 맛있었으나 약간 비싼 편. 주변에 마켓이나 식당이 하나도 없다는 것 참고하세요. 샤워할 때 수압도 많이 약했고 물이 약간 짠 것으로 보아 바닷가 지하수를 이용하는 것 같습니다.
결론적으로 모든 불편을 감수하고 조용히 바닷가에서 휴식하기를 원하는 분들에게는 추천합니다.
- Mora (10/5): Värt! - Helt enskilt och avsides. Perfekt om du vill komma bort och inte träffa någon. Enkla små bungalows nära stranden, helt underbar mat som serveras! Topp för en liten slant.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - If you like to chill and relax and have the beach all to yourself, this is the place for you !!!
If you want to party stay in Ao Nang
The power is out during the day, but you're out and about, sono big deal.
Great restaurant, and family run establishment.
I really enjoyed over a week there...
Highly recommend !!!
- SHUN WAI (6/5): - 電力分時段供應 ,WiFi網絡不穩定,房間不能有網絡,但餐飲不錯。沒有空調而有風扇。不過無電就用不著。
- J (8/5): - Nice accomodation, friendly staff, good food and quiet area.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Loved the laid back atmosphere here and it’s right on the beach. You can pretty much have the whole beach to yourself. It’s easier if you rent a scooter so that it’s easy to get to town but the hotel is nice and quiet. Great place to relax.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Tolle Anlage mit genialer Aussicht auf das Meer.
Zuvorkommendem Personal und hervorragender Küche.
Klar ist auch das man nicht den gleichen Standard wie in Deutschland erwarten darf. Wenn man einfach leben und genießen kann ist man hier richtig .
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I literally cannot say enough good things about this place and its owners (it is a family run business) they were so kind to us, the food was incredible, and I don’t know that you will ever get such a private beach for this price anywhere.
- Christian (10/5): Großartige Unterkunft für Entspannung u. Top Essen - Sehr einfach (nur kaltes Wasser, Strom ab ca 18 Uhr bis ca. 1 Uhr morgens), sehr sauber und vor allem exzellentes Essen von sehr freundlichen und hilfsbereiten Gastgebern. Direkt am einsamen Strand. Scooter notwendig, um in die Stadt zu kommen, kann vor Ort gemietet werden.
- Marlon (10/5): The best keept secret in Krabi area :-) - This is my fifth time to this wonderful place. If you are looking for secluded , simple but clean , fantastic hospitalety and wonderful homemade thai food ---This is the place . To me this is my home in Thailand.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Rent o trevligt. Trevlig personal.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - great hotel and friendly, very clean.
the bed was very comfortable, and note the water in the shower is funny
- Marisa (10/5): Amazing! - This place is amazing and was one of the more magical experiences that we had in Thailand. Right on the beach - no one around. When the tide is down you can walk out far into the water and see starfish and sand dollars. The restaurant makes great food and fruit shakes right there on the sand. The staff are very friendly and attentive. I enjoyed it so much because it was so remote and relaxing. However, you have to go there with the mindset that you are camping on the beach. The bungalows are great and comfortable but there is no hot water (it's not too cold though) and since it is so remote they can only run electricity at night. To us, this place was a pleasant surprise and a great time-out from our busy trip. I would go back in a heartbeat.
- alex06 (8/5): si prêt et si loin à la fois - calme, sérénité, seul au monde
- Nina & Jonathan (10/5): Beautiful hidden hotel with its own beach! - Our stay at the Sand Beach hotel was amazing. The staff are so nice and polite, very friendly and helpful. The rooms and the whole hotel area is very clean, and their food at the restaurant is amazing!
The hotel is hidden away from the main area and its perfect as a getaway! But also is within easy access to Ao Nang. We either walked down the beach to Ao Nang or we rented a scooter from the hotel when we wanted to go elsewhere.
Perfect for couples. If you want to have the luxury of having pretty much a private beach, quiet hidden place, but also be able to access the busy town with ease - this is the perfect place for you!!!
- Jesper (8/5): - Stugor ca 2 mil utanför ao nang. Ok standard, man får vad man betalar för. Lugnt och tyst för de som vill ha det men lite avsides.
- Klaus (2/5): Zwischenstop - Die bungalows sind sauber je doch nur kaltes wasser und strom von 6 pm bis 6 am.
Personal war freundlich. Der strand mit müll verdreckt, freilaufende hunde wo am strand fleissig ihre geschäfte vollrichten.
Nie wieder ! Nach einem tag wieder ausgecheckt !
- Verified traveler (8/5): Oase direkt an Traumstrand - Ideal zum abschalten. Kleine Anlage mit einfach ausgestatteten Bungalows.
Lediglich 9 Bungalows, einfache Ausstattung, super schöner - sehr ruhiger - Strand.
Schattenplätze mit Hängematten laden zum relaxen ein.
Sehr gutes Restaurant mit Meerblick.
Und hat es super gefallen!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - very quiet clean great beach great staff beautiful scenery
- Verified traveler (10/5): Außerordentlich schöne Unterkunft - Wunderbare Unterkunft! Sauber, sehr geräumiger und schön eingerichteter Bungalow direkt am Strand und herzliches Personal. Das Essen im Restaurant war eines der besten, das wir im ganzen Thailandurlaub bekamen. Absolut empfehlenswert für alle die Ruhe suchen, ausspannen möchten und dabei an einem wunderbaren Strand relaxen möchten. Der Strand ist ruhig, wunderbar zum Spazierengehen und entdecken der kleinen Inseln in strandnähe. Sehr empfehlenswert!
- Aneta (6/5): Only nature worth to be savored. - NO ELECTRICITY form all day 05AM - 06PM / NO Hot shower / NO TV / NO air conditioner / Fare from Village, markets, other restaurants / Greedy oner offer overpriced tours for islands / No breakfast for Third adult person on extra bed!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Stille og laid back nydelse - Fantastisk sted og meget rare mennesker, maden var ok.
Her var stille og ikke så mange folk, dejligt!!
Bungalows var lidt primitive og stranden var ikke perfekt. Men alt i alt et dejligt sted. Der er mange forskellige aktiviteter at søge i Ao Nang og omkring liggende steder. Lej en scooter billigt på stedet og tag afsted!
- DocT (6/5): You cannot swim here - We were looking for a location to enjoy the beach and swim in warm waters. You cannot swim here ...
- Bruno (10/5): Excellent rapport qualité-prix - Bungalow au pied de la plage au calme dans un cadre magnifique.
Restauration excellente et pas onéreuse.
Seuls bémols pas d'électricité de 8h à 20h, pas de climatisation et pas d'eau chaude
Je recommande sans hésitation cet hôtel.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Sehr einfach - Kleines und einfaches Resort.
Strand ok, nur wenige Touristen.
Preisleistung gut.
- Louis (6/5): Trompée par des avis trop enthousiasmes. - Me basant sur les avis, j'ai réservé avec beaucoup d'attente cette chambre.
Bon, je savais qu'il n'y avait pas d'eau chaude et pas d'électricité avant 18h. Mais, quand on sait le prix des chauffe-eau en Thaïlande et le prix des chambres que j'ai eu ensuite, l'eau chaude n'était pas un luxe.
On vous demande de ne pas jeter le papier toilette dans les WC ... OK, mais alors il faut changer la poubelle tous les jours, ce qui n'a pas était fait durant tout notre séjour. Egalement pas de changement de serviette toilette ni de ménage de la chambre et quand nous sommes arrivés, il y avaient encore des vieux cheveux au fond du misérable lavabo.
Trois chaises longues sur quatre étaient cassées !!!
Au petit déjeuner, nous avons eu partout 2 oeufs, ici un seul.
De plus comme nous étions dans un parc nationale, nous étions loin, mais vraiment loin de tout.
Maintenant les points forts : la gentillesse du personnel et la délicieuse cuisine et pour ceux qui aiment, la solitude.
D'aucun me diront que le prix n'était pas élevé ... En Thaïlande, nous avons eu de superbes chambres avec piscine pour le même prix.
- Isabelle (8/5): - Det låg lite off men det var väldigt mysigt och avkopplande. Vi var bara där i två nätter och det var perfekt. Trevlig personal.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Total afslapning væk fra fest og larm - Det er hyggeligt at være på sand beach bungalow, men der mangler et drive fra personalet og der kunne godt blive skabt et lidt mere livligt aftenmiljø. Alle var meget venlige og søde og til total afslapning er det okay. Stranden er smuk, men pga. meget stor forskel på tidevand omkring fuldmåne er vandet grumset og ikke noget at råbe hurra for.
- Tuyakbayev (6/5): Уединенный отель на берегу моря - Если вы ищете удобство и комфорт,то вам явно не сюда. Если вы непритязательный путешественник,которому надо только прийти переночевать, или вам нужно уединения и тишины,то смело можете ехать в этот отель. Минусы: Вода из душа и из крана идет всегда прохладная и соленая. Свет дают только вечером. Вай фай очень часто не работает. В номере повсюду насекомые. Муравьи,кузнечики и другая живность. Очень удален от города,аптек,магазинов. Абсолютно за всем надо ехать. Там же берете мотобайк на прокат и едите,если не боитесь непривычного движения. Вернуться нужно засветло,так как в темноте легко потеряться. Плюсы: отличный собственный пляж с шезлонгами. Хороший персонал, хорошая кухня.
- Markus (10/5): - Täydellinen paikka rentoutumiseen ja jos tulee tylsää niin paikan päältä saa vuokrattua skootterin reilun n.6 euron päivähintaan.
- SERGUEI (10/5): Relaxing - Beautiful place, make sure to rent a bike to go there.
Food that we ate there was the best out of any other places that we visited!
- Verified traveler (4/5): Far away, dirty and ascetic but close to the beach - The only advantage of this bungalow is the location right on the beach, so it's very quiet but on the other hand it is so far from anywhere that you'll have to pay a lot for the taxis. There is no sweet water (the shower is with salty water) and the electricity is only during certain hours during evening. The Internet works only from time to time and the reception and in the rooms there is no wifi reception (only in the restaurant). The rooms are dirty, especially toilet. Except for the bed and a single chair there is no other furniture, so nowhere to keep your stuff.
- Joanne (8/5): Hidden gem - We had a wonderful stay here and I would return to this beautiful place! You are very remote here and the only access is by using a tuc tuc or taxi as Aonung is about a 10 minute drive. The facilities are basic but clean and the food and hosts are lovely! I would recommend this place, probably not for party goers or people desperate to spend their time on the Internet as there is only electricity between 1800-0500.
A very relaxing, beautiful place!
- Wesley (6/5): Pretty basic cabin quiet remote location - A humble retreat food is good taxi from airport rip off beach nice but plastic evsrywhere bed was really uncomfortable a box spring with no matress no top sheet no hot water electricity only at night its cheap eh...so dont expect much...
- Jay (8/5): - I will not recommend to my friend. Service was nice and friendly but all day no wifi available also 5am to 6pm no electric
- Jan (10/5): The best experience we ever had! No kidding. - This is a place I would return again and again. The owners are absolutely lovely a amazing cooks. The kitchen us open from 7:30am until 9pm and they would cook these amazing dishes for you all the time. The best.food in Thailand. The location is on the long beach...far away from crowds and separated by river. You have peace and quiet, hammocks, nice beach chairs...ideal to recharge batteries and relax. You can rent a motorbike for 250 baht if you want and ride to Ao Nang if you want to. The bungalows are spacious, comfy and clean. Shower is cold one but you don't really.need a.hot shower. We stayed for 6 nights and would come again.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - We enjoyed it, huts good, people friendly would stay again .
- Tim (10/5): Excellent, private getaway to the wild! - Family owned bungalows near the seaside. Food is magnificent, staff is very helpful and friendly. The beach is huge and secluded. Nothing really to see underwater, though. Bungalows are spacious, clean and have fans. Tap water is salty. Scooters available for rent from staff for 250 THB a day.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Paradise on Private Beach - This was by far my favorite hotel throughout my trip in Thailand. The staff was extremely friendly. The food was delicious. There wasn't one thing that didn't taste fantastic. The hammocks right on the beach were great to take an afternoon nap in. We shared the beach with only 2-4 other people. It was Heaven on Earth. The rooms were clean and the bed was comfortable. I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely be back. Not to mention the sea being steps away from your bungalow and the water being crystal clear and warm. I love Krabi!
- Dean (10/5): Heavenly view, food, and peaceful paradise - Our family of five adults had a fantastic stay that was even better than the already great reviews we had read. This stay was the best one we have had. The staff are amazingly helpful and we appreciated their advice for excursions which they helped book, along with taxi rides. The food is truly the best...we will dream about the freshly made Thai meals which we ate while looking at the sea view. The beach is pristine, the water aquamarine, the walks along the shore restful. If you want a quiet uncrowded beach, this is it. The stay some rustic "do-able" parts such as electricity access only from 6 pm to 6 am, cold showers which worked in 92 degree heat, and wifi only for evening hours. It helped us "unhook" which was beneficial. This was heavenly and will be long remembered.
- david (10/5): Paradise is twice as nice at half the price. - Loved it
Arrived late so the kitchen should have been closed. Instead Tip arranged a table on the beach for us in a perfect spot and helped us choose some lovely food! We were sold. The whole family are lovely, friendly and helpful. The beach is lovely. Lots of crabs and starfish to find. We swam out 400 metres and could still stand up. Very relaxing stay. Rooms comfortable and had all we needed. Got a taxi bike tuk tuk home quite late one night and one of the lovely ladies came running out to meet us. She spoke to the driver a bit, chastised him for charging us too much, gave us some of our money back and sent him on his way! I'll never forget that. It was only a small amount and I'd had a few drinks so wasn't that bothered but I felt she was on our side and kind of protecting us as if we were one of the family. That is how we felt throughout our stay.
The fact that the power is off from 6am until 6pm only adds to the feeling of serenity and helps you to kick back and totally relax. It also encourages you to put down your electronic devices, take a walk and enjoy nature. We stayed in Thailand for 3 weeks in total. 4 nights at Sand Beach Bungalow. In that time we stayed in places that work out as 14 times the price of Sand Beach!! Very posh we'll appointed 5 star resorts. Next time we will only stay at Sand Beach Bungalow even if the 5 star resorts are cheaper! Nuf said.
Stay for the experience and remember it's the imperfections that make it perfect.
- Wim (10/5): Found rest again in Sand Beach Bungalow - This was really a getaway!!! Forgot about business life and enjoyed the silence and beautiful surrounding! Hospitality of Tip and her 'family' was worth more then a 10! The food --> one word: DELICIOUS. Next year I will come back. (the no electricity during the day really is big effort not to open laptop/cellphone/tablet--> back to basic)
- Mr Coke (8/5): Relaxed & friendly getaway 5km from Ao Nang - Stayed for 6 days and was heartbroken when I had to leave. The owner Tip and the rest of the staff were very friendly and helpful, will have to come back next year :) The kitchen was quite popular even with people from other nearby bungalows, I'll let that speak for itself. Only down sides were that the place was a bit hard to find (had a map and the taxi driver still had to ask for directions, plus it cost 500 baht), no aircon or hot water (only fan) in the bungalows, and they only had electricity from 6pm to 5am. They do have complimentary books for you to read and hammocks to chill in though. If you want a relaxed place right next to a beach away but not too far away from the masses of tourists, this is definitely the place to visit!
- Aidan (10/5): Superb! - If your looking for something off the beaten track, owned and operated by an amazing Thai family then this is the place for you.
Beautiful beach with only a handful of people and the food was great.
Aonang is only 20 minutes away by bike but like a lot of Thailand unfortunately it is very commercialised!
Great stay and will return!!
- Marion (10/5): Best place to stay in Krabi - The best bungalow place to stay in Krabi! The staff is so nice, the food is very good and not that expensive. Only downside is the location which is a bit far from everything, but we rent a scooter and it was very easy to go around and visit. A very nice place to stay and chill by the beach, having dinner on a little table on the sand with candles. Highly recommended for couples :)
