Bottom Line
The 40-room Phu Pha Ao Nang Resort and Spa is a mid-range hotel off Krabi's pretty Ao Nang Beach. Rooms are housed in separate four-unit buildings, and all have private terraces or balconies, along with air-conditioning. On-site features include a small spa, a tiny fitness center, and a small pool area with lounge chairs, drink service, and perhaps too much shade. For something a little more elegant and with a bigger pool, guests may want to compare rates at the nearby Golden Beach Resort, which also has direct beach access.

Scene
Low-key setting with abundant wooden elements and natural greenery
Tucked in a plant-filled stretch of land not far from the beach, Phu Pha has lots of lush greenery and a low-key vibe that makes it popular with vacationing couples and families. The open-air lobby has blue-tile floors and wood-paneled ceilings, and an area with bench seating, tourist brochures, and magazines off to one side. The grounds follow a similar decor pattern, with lots of lacquered natural wood in common areas -- such as the spa and the open-air restaurant. This natural design scheme extends to the rooms, which are decked out in floor-to-ceiling wood.
Location
Central location, a 20-minute walk to Krabi's Ao Nang Beach
The Golden Beach Resort is located about a 20-minute walk to Krabi's pretty Ao Nang Beach. It's in a pedestrian-friendly area surrounded by hotels, restaurants, and bars. The hotel also has a shuttle service to the beach and area restaurants. It's a 20-minute drive to Krabi Town and a half-hour drive to the Tiger Cave Temple. Railay Beach, a popular spot for rock climbing, can be reached in about 20 minutes via long-tail boat. It's a 40-minute drive to the Krabi Airport and slightly more than two hours to Phuket International Airport.
Rooms
Pleasant wood-filled rooms with air-conditioning and private balconies
There are 40 Superior and Deluxe Rooms at the hotel, either including two twins or a double bed. Each room is housed in a two-story bungalow shared with three other rooms, so large groups could rent out an entire block if they wanted. Units are designed with floor-to-ceiling wood, giving them a natural feel. They all have air-conditioning, mini-fridges, balconies or terraces, electric kettles, safes, and TVs. Bathrooms have walk-in showers, and those in Deluxe Rooms also have tubs.
Features
An outdoor pool, open-air restaurant, spa, fitness center, and free Wi-Fi
The swimming pool is beautiful -- surrounded by greenery and lounge chairs -- and has a shallow kids' section and poolside drink service. There's also a simple open-air restaurant with wood tables and ceilings, which serves all three meals. The fitness center is small but includes a couple of treadmills, free weights, and weight machines. There's also a rustic spa with multiple massage spaces and a sauna. Other amenities include a conference room, laundry service, a free area shuttle, babysitting (for a fee), and car rentals. Wi-Fi is free throughout the hotel.
