The 52-room L Resort Krabi is a solid mid-range choice for all sorts of travelers -- families, couples, and friend groups -- in the heart of wild Ao Nang. After a year-long renovation, the resort reopened in 2016 with a contemporary purple-and-white design (though a few remnants of its pre-renovation self, like the odd outdated furnishing, remain) in its rooms and suites. All units have minibars and free coffee, tea, and Wi-Fi and most have balconies or terraces -- some swim-out. At the hotel's center are two landscaped pools, including one tiered with whirlpools. L Resort's central location is its best asset; just note that many of its neighbors are party hostels and nightclubs and late-night noise is likely, especially in high season. It's worth comparing rates at the nearby Phra Nang Inn, another ideally located beach-facing property, but the rooms there aren't as modern.

Green View Village Resort is a 29-room property close to the stunning cliffs of Ao Nang -- and away from the town's traffic and party scene. A huge range of rooms, from single rooms to freestanding villas, suit various budgets and traveler types. There are several units for families or groups, with multiple beds and bunks in some. Key features include two pools and an on-site restaurant. Other than that, there's not much to do on-site, but Green View's position near the main road means it's easy to get out and explore the town and islands. A block away, Centra by Centara Phu Pano Resort Krabi offers an alternative with more modern rooms for only slightly higher rates; however, some travelers will prefer the village-like vibe of Green View to its seven-story, corporate-style neighbor.

The 67-room Anyavee Ao Nang Bay Resort Krabi is a three-pearl hotel, located a short walk from the beach.
