It is a really nice and silent place. The indival houses located near to the beach. A large bed placed at the middle of the room with very nice bathroom. We can laying on the beach front enjoy the relax time there. The restaurant there provides quite delicious foods. Overall is a very good resort.

Really a boutique hotel! Very nice, stylish rooms, big, with a beautiful 3 pieces toilet, nice garden and beautiful sunset location. Staff friendly and good quality service. Good internet wifi.
Beach nice, the sea water not so clear, no shops/restaurants outside the hotel. Far from Krabi. No road indications.
The perfect location for an honeymoon couple or for who is searching for a lonely, relaxing, place. The beautiful, long beach strip is perfect for jogging or beachcombing and the countryside around the hotel show an old style, untouched Thailand with rice fields, rubber tree forests, mangroves swamps and canals full of animal life. Thumb up!

The Staff at the resort are lovely and have a nothing is too much attitude. The resort is built and finished to a fantastic spec and looks over beautifully still waters.
It really is quite far from anything and expensive to get to other places if you dont have a car.
This was a lovely and relaxing resort. However it is more suited to couples as it is in a very quiet location. If you want time in a beautiful place to just relax or spend some quality time with a partner then this is the perfect hotel.

Privacy, grounds, staff, food.
Very remote (though we did not really consider that a con)
This hotel was exactly what we were looking for. We had read reviews that said not to under-estmimate how remote this resort was, so we were prepared. It's located on a 9kn beacch, that houses only 3 other small boutique resorts. The staff were incredibly gracious in every encounter. The rooms were very spacious and well designed. The bath, shower and toilet were all seperated, and 'outdoor' bath area was terrific. The only thing that would have enhanced the experience was a bathrobe for when you get out of your luxurious bathtub. The food at the restaurant was incredible. Considering there is not where else to go, were a little worried about eating at the same place every day, but there was a large selection, and all of it was delicious.
Hotel Feature Tip : The hotel is meant for couples, as all rooms only have a king size bed and glass enclosures in the shower and toilet.

the hotel is nice. Luv the tub but it is too far. we moved out after 1 night. I knew when i booked that it was out of no where but thought we could take it. unfortunately, we couldn't.

swimming pool, the room, great staff, good food, best booze! (2 in 1 happy hour), not the mention free internet access, wide collection of dvd's you can have for free (dvd player incl. in room)
watch out for jellyfishes
this hotel was in the middle of nowhere. we travelled probably around 30 mins from the krabi airport. but when we got there we were very satisfied with our room. it was like on the pictures. the staff were great, very friendly. free internet access, although it was like a sauna in that room. the swimming pool isnt too big, but for a quick dip on a 35° day, its enough. the fried rice with pineapple is a must try meal. they will ask you if you want to tour around the islands for 4,500 baht, it was a great trip but i think it was too expensive for 2 people. ask other tourists to take the trip, would be much cheaper.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : dont make the 4,500 baht boat trip to other islands if your just with your partner. ask other tourists too.

- Far from Ao Nang nearly 50 Kilometers by car
- No shop around here
- The Beach Boutique Resort Krabi,
We stayed 2 nights in Deluxe villa , all the villa occupied , but it is very quiet.
- The bath tub , shower , toilet and counter sink
has it's own area. ( Separate area )
the bath tub area is very lovely.
- The dinner area locate near the swimming pool,
under the candle light on your table is very romantic.
- Very quiet beach
We love it very much.

Excellent service
Relaxing atmosphere
Good food
Very isolated
Beach not great
Getting to the Beach Boutique could prove a little difficult as it is so remote. However, once there any stresses are instantly dissolved. It is the most relaxing and tranquil place where the service is second-to-none. Every member of staff was extremely attentive. The facilities are immaculately maintained and the food is delicious. We would definitely recommend it as a romantic and peaceful getaway. However, there are no local facilities such as shops or restaurants anywhere near the hotel. Although it is remote the staff can organise transfers and day trips to nearby attractions. There is a complimentary computer room with internet and an extensive library of DVDs free for use (rooms have DVD players).
Restaurant Tip : The on-site restaurant serves beautiful food at reasonable prices. However, there are no other eating options nearby.

Great hotel. All bungalow villas were beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Staff were lovely, friendly and helpful.
Location-wise it was it was 40 mins south of Krabi town in a remote location.
The beach boutique is small hotel of luxury bungalow villas. It's in a remote place, making it great for those looking for peace and quiet. It makes an ideal stopover for a couple of nights which we did before heading to Phi Phi. They do run a free trip to Krabi every Monday so you can see what you're missing out on (not much!). I would thoroughly recommend staying here for 2 or 3 nights. They also have a great DVD collection!

Nice room, good food in the restaurant
The hotel is located on more of a mudflat than a beach
When we first arrived at the hotel I was very excited. We had a pool villa, which was really nice and when you looked out the window the view was of lovely white sand. But, upon walking down to the beach, I realized the white sand was just what they had deposited in the yard of the hotel to make it appear to be on a beach. The "beach" was more mudflat than sand and there were huge (really huge) jellyfish all over the place. There is no way you would swim there. Also, the hotel is sort of in the middle of nowhere so getting anywhere is a big production. The food in the restaurant was good. And, the staff was very pleasant. But, I would not recommend the massage. My friend and I both got massages and both felt like the woman doing them was half asleep the entire time.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : They do offer free activities several days a week. Good way to see other things in the area.

You have the beach to yourself
Quiet place to just space out
Big rooms. Exclusivity.
Enjoyed our stay there. Wonderful service and a very attentive hotel manager who knew all his patrons by name! More of a place for couples. Certainly popular as it was running at near full capacity but considering the calm and peace that prevails, it wasn't overwhelming. What I like is that the beach isn't lined with deck chairs but don't expect the silky sand like Hua Hin or Koh Samui. There was a special BBQ dinner while we were there and I could see that the staff put in much effort to set it up. Kudos to you!
Travel tip : Finding the Had Yao beach for the first time might prove daunting. It's a good 25km in from Highway 4, so keep driving.

just a few people with you in this hotel, privacy.
We loved this relaxing hotel, no people on the very long long beach and wonderful sunsets. Very quiet hotel, no disturbing music.
Pool is very nice located at the beach and there is also a small restaurant for breakfast lunch and dinner. You get the whole day drinks and a very nice staff. Everything is very clean. Internet is always available and prints are in inclusive. But when you are looking for fun, party and action, this is not the right place for you. For families with small children it is great because the sea is very shallow and there are a lot of beautiful shells to find.

We loved the fact that the location is so unspoilt. The staff are brilliant and can not do enough for you. The accomodation and resort is kept very clean.
Thai people can not understand the concept of having a 3 coarse meal. You tend to get all your food at once. It didnt spoil our stay though, we actually found it quite amusing.
This is a relativly new resort so it is a wonderfully unspoilt location. It would be useful if they provided a printable location map and address written in Thai as our cab driver took us up and down the coast for an extra half an hour until he located The Beach. The sign posts are very small also, so easily missed. This was the only negative comment we have about The Beach. We stayed here over Xmas & New Year and we would definatly consider staying here again. The staff are fantastic and extreemly accomodating. They genuinely cant do enough for you. The hotel provides a courtesy shuttle bus to Ao Nang beach, the Emerald Pool and the Hot Spa on different days. They can also book various tours to different Islands off the coast for an extra fee. We were impressed that the Manager and even the owner of The Beach made themselves available and mingled with the guests from time to time to discuss and queries we had.
Restaurant Tip : When ordering your food, make it clear that you want your Entrees brough to your table first "to start".

- silent.
- clean.
- free internet.
- small pool.
- no shops and restaurant near the hotel.
- far from everything.
The hotel is placed at a very quiet place. 50 km to krabi town. The opportunities to do somethings are not good. 3 Times a week a trip from the hotel (for free) is organized. If want be alone at the beach than u are right!
