The photos on this website don't do justice to the beauty and serenity of this place. The immense rocky cliffs and tropical greenery took our breath away. It was wonderful to escape the crowds of Aonang after a day of beach hopping and return to this oasis of quiet beauty. The hourly shuttle from the resort to the beach was convienent, and it was easy to catch a tuktuk in town to return if we missed the shuttle times. The rooms were huge with separate bath and shower, and the eating area overlooking the pool was our favorite place to hang out in the morning and afternoon. The staff were eager to respond to any of our questions or concerns. We'd highly recommend Phu Petra to any of our friends looking to spend time in this part of Thailand!

This is a decent hotel located on the outskirts of Ao Nang. The rooms are large and well kept. The pool area is nice and the lounge area contained two computers for the use of the guests. Wifi was not available in all rooms. I would say the staff at reception are more business-like than friendly. Breakfast was my least favorite among the 7 hotels we stayed at on this trip with limited choices that appealed to us. .

On the plus side the hotel was quiet and there was good view of a cliff from poolside-very scenic. On the minus side the hotel was outside walking distance to town and you needed to rely on the free shuttle or a tuk tuk to get to town and back. This was not without its problems as one night we had booked the shuttle for a return trip from town, and were not picked up. They said they were there, 5 sets of eyes didn't see their truck (we were about 15 min early and stayed for 30-40 min). No appologies or offer to pay the taxi fare. I don't know what happened, but it was a pain as we stayed in town longer than we needed to in order to get the shuttle. On another night the shuttle service worked fine.

We didn't eat at the restaurant other than breakfast, but there is a busy reasonably priced German restaurant 50 meters to the right as you are leaving the hotel.

Would I return? Maybe. This hotel is fair value for the price, nothing special, but nothing too bad either.

Dear our valuable guests:

First of all, let us convey our sincere appreciation for choosing our property in your vacation trip. We thank you that you give us the feedback and some useful notices but accept that we felt a bit disappointed to note that you just have a decent stay.

Please let me address your cons with us as per below message.

1. Wifi
Wifi is free of charge and available throughout the resort. Every room and every point in our resort can be accessed to an internet. The possibility can be thatn an accessibility is weak in some moments of a time or in some certain areas. We apologize for that problem occured and we are sure we can either assist you or find the better solutions for you in this matter. We ask you please to inform us when the problem arise.

2. Staff is business like
I am not so sure what issue made you think that our staff is business like. Everyone do their very best in serving the customers to fulfill their expectation but not all the things we can do. We doubt that you might be the one who desired to made your personal local calls at our Front Desk and anticipate for no charges. You asked us everyday to make a phone call but accept no charges. Please to be informed that such service needs to be charged since we are incurred the fees from the Telephone Organization as well. However it seemed that our guests didn't really understand and insisted that it should be free. We serve you to the very best but at the same time need to follow the policy and standard of our service as well. Please do not get our good mean wrong and we will be very glad should you understand in this matter.

3. Breakfast
We will discuss in a team in response to more options and variety of our breakfast. Thank you for your kind observation.

4. Location
We are so clear that we are the small luxurious boutique resort which suits for the guests who love to stay away for the messy things and prepare to enjoy their fullest recreation with their refreshed mind. However we have a transfer service to McDonald which is a centre of Aonang and take approximately only 5 minute to get there.

5. Shuttle Bus Service
I must apologize for a matter that you missed one trip of our shuttle bus to pick you up back toward the resort. I will definitely find out what made it happen and will educate our driver of the scheduling more.

Last but not least, we appreciate your patronage and hope that the events does not keep you from returning to our establishment. We hope you find our changes satisfactory and also hope for your kind understand in some matter that clarified as above.

We look forward to your returns

Thank you and best regards,

stayed here for 4D3N on 28th Nov for our family holiday. and we LOVED it! Value for money, YES! The villa was huge enough to fit all 6 of us and definitely clean. Place was beautiful and calm which was just what we needed- to just relax and enjoy the peacefulness.

THUMBS UP to the EXCELLENT SERVICE! the staffs were very friendly even though they had a bit of problem conversing in English. But that did not cause any communication problems. :) they were very efficient and attended to all our needs. We booked our island tours and booked a van to bring us to the night market all via the front reception counter! :)
Moreover, they answered all our enquiries well via email before we actually went there. Really appreciated that because it was our first time going to Krabi and we could have been very lost without the management's help. :)

Though the resort is a bit far from the Aonang street, you can easily take the shuttle service from the resort (to and fro).

Would definitely stay there again the next time we go to Krabi. Very satisfied, I`ll give this resort a 5 star!! :) :)

Quiet, relaxing environment, away from bustling Ao Nang. If you're looking for night life, stay away. This is a grown ups hotel. Beautifully surrounded by limestone cliffs with lovely, serviceminded staff and a free shuttle to town. Nice clean pool and good wifi. Spacious room with a large bathroom and loads of storage, we brought four suitcases and were able to tuck everything away. Bad points: the spa treatments were twice the price and some, compared to everywhere else.

Dear our beloved guests:

It has been a pleasure taking care you and our appreciation to note that our service meet your expectation.

For the spa price, we must say that we sale you for only with the quality authentic Thai Style Massage. That's why it should not be compared with the price of other where else. Our price is actually standard if to say with its convenience and genuine.

We however appreciate your trust, and we’ll do our best to continue to give you the kind of service you deserve.

Thank you and best regards,
