Thailand, affectionately known as the land of smiles, is globally celebrated for its spectacular beaches. In your quest for the perfect seaside getaway, you’ll inevitably stumble upon mentions of the southern jewels, Phuket and Krabi. The choice really hinges on the kind of atmosphere you’re after. If you yearn for a more serene, laid-back setting and a fun nightlife scene to accompany, Krabi is the vibe you are after.
Located in the heart of Krabi, you’ll find Ao Nang Beach – a place where the breathtaking beauty of towering cliffs, lush jungles, and untouched beaches come together to form the perfect holiday destination. This is undoubtedly the spot to soak up the best of both worlds.
You might wonder if staying in Ao Nang is worth it and, more importantly, which part of Ao Nang is the best to stay in. Rest assured, we’re here to guide you through making the perfect choice for your stay. Let’s explore beautiful Ao Nang!
Where To Stay In Ao Nang
Ao Nang is worth staying in for many reasons. This vibrant locale offers a unique blend of natural beauty, recreational activities, and convenient amenities. Now, let’s take a closer look at the four main areas that make up Ao Nang:
Ao Nang Beach
The crown jewel of Krabi, Ao Nang Beach, is one of the best parts to stay in. It’s a mesmerising blend of azure waters and golden sands, all set against a backdrop of dramatic limestone cliffs that rise right out of the ocean. This idyllic spot is perfect for those looking to bask in the sun, take a refreshing swim, or simply enjoy the majestic sunsets that paint the sky. Along the beachfront, you will find an expansive selection of restaurants and bars, offering everything from local Thai dishes to international favourites. After the sun sets, get ready to have fun because the nightlife here is as electric as the views, with fire-spinning shows and parties hosted by the many bars dotting the shore.
Ao Nang Village
Just a leisurely stroll from the beach, Ao Nang Village pulses with the rhythm of local life. You will find many street food stalls for a quick bite, and quaint, aesthetic cafes for that perfect Insta shot. It’s worth staying in Ao Nang Village if you want to immerse yourself in the local culture, hunt for unique souvenirs, and explore a variety of food in fantastic local spots. Whether you’re in the mood for spicy street food or a cooling Thai iced tea, Ao Nang Village offers a slice of Thai life you won’t want to miss.
Noppharat Thara
If you are after a more peaceful and quiet vibe, Noppharat Thara is a serene alternative to the lively Ao Nang Beach. This pristine national park stretches gracefully along the coastline, offering peaceful picnic spots nestled under the gentle shade of casuarina trees. This part of Ao Nang is an excellent stay for families and couples looking to unwind, with its calm waters and gentle breezes creating a perfect backdrop for relaxation and connection with nature.
Ao Nang Inland
Venture inland, and you’ll be rewarded with Ao Nang’s lush, verdant heart. This area is an adventurer’s paradise, offering the chance to scale imposing rock faces, trek through dense jungles, and discover hidden waterfalls that seem to belong to another world. For those looking to experience the untamed beauty of Krabi up close, Ao Nang Inland offers a thrilling escape into the wild.
Each area has something unique to offer and much to explore. Now, you just need the perfect hotel to match your vibe.
