Very beautiful garden and location. Very nice and devoted staff. Very good breakfast and excellent Thai food. Amazing Thai massage, very relaxing. The balconies of the beachfront deluxe bungalows are not enough secure with little children.
On the right there is a nice and small beach but some dirty water from bungalows goes to the sea and pollute the rock. Baan Krating is a ideal place if you search peaceful nature and calm. It is a very good choice for families. If you search a touristic place with a intensive nightlife, it is not the best place for you. We spend 2 wonderful weeks with our 2 children there : the nature and the sea are beautiful and the staff is really very nice.
Travel tip : If you would make short trips (about 30mn to go there by boat) in island in the south of phuket island, we suggest to go from baan krating to Rawai beach and take to coral island a small Thai boat (about 1000 bht go and return), it is better than take an expensive trip in agency to kai island with too many people. In coral you will have less people on the beach and free to change your destination with the skipper (ours named Weng) if you change your mind and to test an other place (beach or island).

Private location with good snorkeling. WI-FI internet was not working. Some lights in and out side the room was broken. In total this was a very pleasant 6 night stay. Excellent sea view from our beach front bungalow with nice standard.
Upon the day of arrival we found our room with beautiful flower arrangement on the bed and fresh fruit on a side table. When comparing with other hotels (with similar price) in and around Phuket during our 2 week stay this was the best value for money with very good standard. Since the hotel is located in the Forrest on a slope you need to be prepared that paths to/from rooms and reception and restaurant are quite steep and has steps.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Dinner in sunset on hill-top restaurant across the bay.

- staff not really enrhousiaste for an hotel of these category\n- so isolated The room of the hotel was really clean and beautifoul. But the beach is small and with a lot of stone and in the sea the sand only long of 3 meter. Morover, the staff is not really enthousiast and not able to solve small problem. Finally, the hotel is isolated, if you are not motorized, it will be difficult for you to eat in an other place than the hotel's restaurant.

Very relaxing quiet resort with friendly staff and a very friendly dog, especially at breakfast. Lots of stairs to climb to the mountainside villas. The view would be brilliant if some trees were removed as we could not see the ocean we had a very good time here. It is a nice quiet resort if peace and quiet is what you are looking for if not it is not too far a drive into Phuket to the biz. The hotel staff were very friendly and made us feel very welcome nothing was too much trouble even when we arrived at 12:30am due to air asia cancelling a flight the staff were there waiting for us smiling or laughing at us I'm not sure. As I say they could increase the view in the villas by trimming some branches off the trees which would create a spectacular view of the ocean. All in all we had a very enjoyable stay thanks to all staff.

The day I checked out and flew to Bangkok I found that 40 US Dollars were missing from my briefcase. The only place this could have happend was at Baan Krating and must have been a hotel staff. They did have a safe and I used it but on the checkout day during breakfast my bags were packed and waiting.
Hotel Feature Tip : The dog will show you around the hotel if you ask him.

Keep track of how much money you charge your room. When leaving the hotel there was a big confusion about how much money we owed for minibar, food and massage. They ended up phoning us on our way to the airport asking us to give an additional 2900 baht to the taxi driver, which he would bring back to the hotel. We did not get a receipt for this and still don´t really know what we paid for.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Nice snorkelling from the hotel beach.
We took a sea canoeing trip to the Phang Nga area which we enjoyed very much.
