"Gorgeous little spot off the main busy strip. Very clean, picturesque, great pool, and fantastic staff. It’s a long walk to the beach, but you can easily grab a rickshaw ride down if you don’t catch the hotel shuttle (hours are limited). Would definitely stay here again. I’d recommend a room right outside the pool as well, but if you don’t there are lots of loungers available all along the pool."

"Super convenient location, on the main Krabi high street to go shopping and access to your own portion of the beach - however it is not a private access. The beach is still available to the public to walk along, the beach deck chairs and tables are raised on an elevated position that is for hotel guests only. Rooms were beautiful, had a lovely tropical feel to them, although a few wear and tear. Breakfast food was lovely too."

OMG! What is not to like?! This property was beyond stunning!! Surrounded by lush beauty. Safe area to walk around for an early morning coffee and just sit with the locals. Walking distance to beach and food and shops.
The hotel itself was beautiful. Pool a lovely welcome after a day in the heat. Staff were beyond friendly and helpful and they remember you daily. Greeted with a juice upon arrival. Food was delicious. Everything was perfect and the best amenities during our trip to...

We chose phulay bay as last stop of our honeymoon, after three weeks of being traveling around Thailand, vietnam and Cambodia this was the best decision to relax and have last amazing experience in this beautiful country.
We arrived later than expected and so tired after a long day, but since the doors of the reception were openned and we saw those thousands of candels and the beautiful Thai reception, our mood changed to relax mode.
The warmest welcome that we ever had, with a refreshing...

We had a wonderful 5-night stay here in late May. Our room was upgraded immediately upon arrival for free, so they basically had us won over from the get-go! The resort amenities are fantastic. They have a really cool pool with an in-pool bar, delicious breakfast right on the beach, different activities going on at the resort all day (although we weren't able to attend any), and much more. The room was clean and very large, and the bed was SUPER comfortable, which can be harder to find in...

We loved this private getaway. The staff were welcoming and helpful. Upon seeing how crowded the Ao Nang area is, we were grateful to have a quiet place to retreat to at the end of each day. I would recommend this location to solo travelers and anyone else who appreciates time away from the crowds.

Overall would recommend. Beds were comfy and aircon was good if you cranked it. Nice private bunks. Bathrooms were a little grimey, but manageable. Pretty big language barrier with staff, were not helpful with travel plans. They were very sweet and wanted to help but have limited English. Right night to 7-11 and a manageable walk to the beach. Pretty quiet at night too!

The Royal Nakara was perfect for what we needed. It was large, clean, and the location was great. It was about a 10 minute walk from the hotel to Ao Nang beach which is amazing for the price. I would suggest this hotel to anyone looking to stick around the Ao Nang area.

We had a wonderful stay at the Koyao Bay Pavilions. James and his team gave us a wonderful welcome and tour of the site and got us pointed to some local spots for food and scooter rental that all worked out great. If anything, we wish we would’ve stayed longer at the Pavilions as it was so nice and secluded from the rest of the normal tourist spots in Phuket and Krabi. If you’re looking to unplug, relax and get away from things this is the perfect spot!
