It's a three-minute walk from Ao Nang Beach, with plenty of shops, bars, and restaurants in the surrounding area. Rooms are nothing fancy, but fine for a short stay, equipped with chunky wooden furniture, air-conditioning, en-suite bathrooms, and furnished balconies -- some with nice pool views. The small outdoor pool has a decked terrace and relaxed atmosphere, with a few sun loungers for tanning. There's an all-day Thai and European restaurant at the front of the property with outdoor seating, serving a generous breakfast buffet for a reasonable fee. Wi-Fi is free throughout the property. Families with small children might prefer the AoNang Villa Resort, which adds a beachfront location and excellent family-friendly facilities.
Scene
Small value hotel with a touch of rustic style
This no-frills hotel is geared towards tourists and situated on a main road that leads to the beach. Decor is simple, with Thai-style furnishings and chunky wood-carved pieces found throughout the hotel. A casual restaurant with outdoor seating is located next to the lobby, where guests can grab something to eat or drink before heading out. The outdoor pool is a lovely place to tan and get some peace and quiet during the day, though sun loungers are limited. Most guests staying here are couples and small groups in town for a short stay. Some families also stay here, though the hotel doesn't cater well to children.
