Krabi Tipa Resort

It is a great resort. The service of staffs are extremely friendly. Book The ocean view suites. Nice and spacious. However had to climb multiple flight of steps to the room unless you take their golf car to your building. Then again another flight of steps to the lift. Not too fun if you hurt your legs. The room had a jacuzzi tub which is nice , but when we start filling up the tub, a lot of hair start floating in the water , hence we decided not to used it. Toothbrush are not provided , if you do need one request from the counter. The weird thing is that they only provide 1 door card. Hence if you are going out separately, you have to coordinate on the return with your other half. The fridge is only functioning when the door card is plugged into. I bought a cake and it melted as we are out of the room with the door card. However overall it is still a nice hotel.

The location of the hotel is ideal which is walking distance to the Ao nang beach. The waiting time for buggy service need a lot of improvement as we had to wait each time to go out from the hotel and to return to the room. The waiting time was around 5minutes to 20 minutes. As it’s close to the mountain, please expect some bugs that may be a visitor into your room.

hotel is at great location, right beside ao nang beach. but quite dated and not very clean. we actually needed to file a request to switch room because 1. we booked a seaview room but cant see the sea or pool at all 2. the room was dimmed, dusty, musty and the lamp wasn’t even working. Fortunately, trips staffs Hafiz A was very helpful in this issue and managed to help me liaise with the hotel so that I can get a new room (though still no views & next day house keeping gave us a bedsheet with a black shoe-print, but at least better than the first).

There was no hot water for shower. Our room was faraway, and had to call the management to bring golf-car, sometimes took half an hour. The worst experience I had was when I booked a Private shared minivan to travel to Phuket. That trip should take only 3 hours.  The driver didn't speak English, was very impolite, and took him 5 hours to drop me at my destination. I called many times to hotel management and complained,  they assured me to take action, but I having heard from them.

There could have been a beach bag and towels for the beach in the rooms. We had it provided to us at another krabi hotel and it made total sense.

Right beside ao nang beach. The staff were friendly and the nice views from the pool.
