Beautiful place to relax without being disturbed”
My girlfriend and I checked in at Phu Petra resort in Mar 2011 for 4 day 3 nights stay. This resort was awarded the Best Boutique resort in 2010 as the hotel's award was clearly displayed at the main reception. The room is big with a huge bed (bigger than King sized). There is a swimming pool located near the main reception, only the Majestic Suites faces the swimming pool. Upon arrival, we were served with a refreshing welcome drink. After the usual administrative process, we were quickly led to our room (Majestic Suite Pool Villa). Julius (Front Office Manager) took the time and effort to show us the room in person and explained the workings within the room. Our luggage was almost immediately brought to our room without any further delay. We decided to try the resort restaurant for our first dinner in Ao Nang, though the service was great, food was about average but the price was a bit steep, costing both of us about THB 1,100 including drinks. Ao Nang Phu Petra Resort is located about 3-5 mins Tuk Tuk ride from Ao Nang main street. It is strongly not advisable not to walk back to the resort at night as the small road leading back to the resort is not lit at night. The resort provides hourly free bus service to Ao Nang town as well as pickups from town back to resort (4-5 trips per day) If you are looking for a secluded resort with exceptional service, I would recommend Phu Petra resort.

Off-the-beaten Track and Yet Still Great Location!”
Love the stay at Aonang Phu Petra Resort. The boutique hotel - I call it boutique as they have only 25 rooms in the resort - is "just right" in terms of coziness and facilities. Great for parents with children who can spend the whole day in pool and have a short jaunt down to Ao Nang town for lunch and back again. Ao Nang town is not walking distance (approx 2km to town proper) but they have an (almost) hourly tuk-tuk that will drop off to McDonald's. The staff is very accommodative to drop me half-way between the hotel (found a great breakfast / brunch place - Smilling Dog Cafe) and McDonalds. Loved the bathroom, very nice design ... and very comfortable room. The only downside is there is very limited wifi access in the rooms facing the limestone hills.

Wonderful and relaxing stay ”
The Aonang Phu Petra is a lovely resort, perfect for honeymooners in Thailand. Service was great, our "bungalow" room was extremely spacious and clean, breakfast had a nice variety; good daily staples of yogurt and omelets, etc.,and a nice change up with the Asian menu (offering Pad thai, Pad see ew, etc.). The pool was lovely and clean. We enjoyed the fact that the Phu Petra was tucked away in by the karst mountains, a little bit further away from town. This for us was not a problem, as there was an hourly free shuttle into town. We went during the rainy season, and it was nice to have a comfortable and cozy resort when the weather was a bit grey. Overall, we had a lovely time at the Phu Petra and would readily recommend it! For couples, friends traveling and looking for an elegant stay, and anyone else! Off-season prices are definitely worth it!

Beautiful location and spacious rooms”
We stayed five nights at Aonang Phu Petra Resort and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The resort is located a short distance away from the main strip of Aonang. The hotel offers a shuttle bus that runs on the hour and is always on time. If you wish to travel outside the shuttle bus schedule departure times it is 100baht or a 15min stroll. The hotel itself is beautiful and well maintained. We liked the fact that it was set a little bit away from the hustle and bustle of Aonang, as this gave the hotel a relaxing and romantic vibe. A definite stand out feature of this hotel is the lovely staff who go out of their way to make you feel welcome and your trip enjoyable.

Fantastic Beautiful surroundings and hotel!”
Fantastic staff - very friendly and helpful whenever they can be. Although there may be a small awkwardness from us knowing little Thai (our fault entirely) and some staff knowing little English, it was no real problem - just a little mis communication when paying for meals/room service/happy hour/drinks - not a major problem, jus be sure to check bills and make sure to question something with a bill of you're not sure - it'll make you feel better and Aonang Phu Petra are bound to be obliging and kind about amending or clarifying anything. Rooms are huge, well kept and stunning - transport into Aonang is great and we felt very well looked after whilst feeling relaxed but secluded - we weren't imposed upon and quite separate from other guests who didn't want to know you or could be friendly with other friendly couples/families. Bar/restaurant close between half 9 - 11 so if you would want a bar/resort environment with chatty casual bar/bar staff this isn't the place, really somewhere to enjoy each other's company and chill out - Room service good and fully stocked fridge, free daily water is nice touch and the air con and wifi is excellent for no fee!

Perfectly Quiet and Serene Place”
phu petra resort is a about 45 min drive from the krabi airport and 20 min to krabi town. this resort is so quiet you feel you're the only guests there. service is prompt and staff is very friendly. the resort manager upgraded us the pool-side deluxe room where you'll find a super king-size bed and a jacuzzi for 2. the pool is right outside your door and the resort is seated against a gigantic lime-stone wall! the scenic is perfect for picture taking. right beside this resort is a rubber plantation and a kick-boxing training ring with a gymnasium where one can become a day member to utilize the apparatus.

Amazing”
We stayed for 2 nights in Ao Nang at the Phu Petra and really enjoyed our stay. Rooms were beautiful, bathroom had a big tub, Wifi worked great, the included breakfast was good and the view from the pool is just spectacular. I was here for my birthday and they went above and beyond with cake, a card and room decorations-staff is wonderful! One thing to keep in mind is the hotel is not walking distance to shops/the beach but they offer a hourly shuttle and its only about 50-100 baht tuktuk to get back to the hotel so it was not even an issues for us. Will definitely return to this resort in the future.

Great resort in beautiful surrounds”
We were very pleased to arrive at Phu Petra after a long day of travelling. We booked at short notice (same day we checked in) so got a great deal. The service staff were so friendly & we were wowed by how lovely our bungalow was. So big, great bathroom with a lovely bath. Had a king size bed but too hard (this seemed to be the case in lots of accommodation in thailand). The resort just the right size, not too big which is what we were looking for. The outlook over the cliffs was just beautiful. The only downfall is we didn't think the nearest beach was particularly nice. Really needed to go to Railay for nice beach. Lots of hotel transfer times to the local town which was handy. Restaurant food good and fairly reasonable for a resort. Brekky also nice. Would definitely recommend Phu Petra to other travellers.

Great location, lovely hotel, great atmosphere”
My stay at Aonang Phu Petra Resort was simply excellent. I reached the hotel much earlier than the check in time and the friendly staff offered to help me take care of my luggage while I have a swim. They also offered me a ride via their shuttle van to the city to do some sight seeing before the check in. and the food in the hotel was excellent and not too pricy as compared to the food in the city. overall, it was a great stay there and I would definitely go back there again

Beautiful resort style hotel ”
I had an awesome stay at phu Petra, the rooms were beautiful and the bathroom was really spacious. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They were the ones who made my stay very enjoyable. The hotel is a little out of the way from the main area but the hotel provides hourly shuttle service to the ao nang area. They even provide pick up from Ao Nang at specific times. The breakfast was simple but nice. The pool area was nice too. I would recommend phu Petra as a nice place to stay in Ao Nang.

Amazing view of cliff, beautiful villa”
Phu Petra was a great choice to stay in Krabi. They have beautifully decorated villas with big bath tub. It's easy to access to the Aonang town by shuttle bus. Nothing much around the hotel and very quiet even though the town is only 10mins away. Some staffs could speak English and it was no problem communicating with them. Food was ok. I would love to stay this resort again next time I visit Krabi.

Very nice resort in a quiet beautiful spot ”
I stayed at Phu Petra with my Mum for 7 days on our way from Europe to Australia. We got Hillside Villa with twin beds as requested. The room was very spacious and well furnished. Bathroom was also very large with all equipment working properly. Buffet breakfast was good: Thai, European food, eggs of all sorts, pastries, yoghurt, nice local fruit. We also liked the pool - the views of the cliff are amazing! Hotel has hourly shuttle to Ao Nang town. There are a few picups from Ao Nang back to the hotel, however may not be enough room for every one - especially at 9:20pm. But tuk-tuk back to the hotel is very cheap and more fun. I have one comment: there would be great if fly screens could be installed in villas, so doors and windows could be kept open at night. I am not a big fan of aircons.

A wonderful place, best in Ao Nang”
I WISH we had stayed here for more than 1 night, this place is wonderful. We had been in Ao Nang center for the last week and needed a night of luxury and quiet. First off, the location is incredible. We were uprgraded to a better villa and were blown away.. so clean, so beautiful. The living area was great and the bed was super comfortable. The bathroom was the best part, so clean and nice with a big bath tub. The ground were beautiful as well and nothing beats swimming in a pool surrounded by limestone cliffs! We ate at the restaurant and while the food was good I did feel it was overpriced and they were out of a lot of items. We needed to check out super early in the morning and since we were going to miss breakfast the staff packed us to go fruit and a sandwich which was appreciated. The only issue was that we were billed for a bottle of Evian which we did not drink but I guess we didnt notice it was already missing when we checked in. We went ahead and paid for it but it was a little irritating that had been missed with the restock, but oh well not a big deal. If we had more time we would have gone back into town to eat since they offer a free shuttle service until 9pm. It is also nice having the service since you are set back from the main road a bit, but I think the location makes the experience even better. Phu Petra is truly a luxurious and comfortable place and I would love to be able to come back and spend some more time relaxing and rejuvenating here!!

Fabulous”
It was a very good stay at Ao Nang Phu Petra. The room was lovely, big & clean. The staff was attentive & friendly. The hotel is arund 25-30 mins away from airport. AoNang beach is around 15 mins by shuttle. The hotel is surrounded with lush green garden trees & mountain cliffs. We as a family always love such places which are away from rush of city life, so enjoied it. It's a well maintained hotel. I just wish they had a microwave in the villa that we booked as we needed to heat up baby's milk very frequently. So I had to carry my own cooker which was a trouble. The breakfast was decent, but expensive. It could have been cheaper. Pool is nice with baby pool attached. Views are stunning. Caution for fellow travellers - the tours offered at hotel are twice more expensive than the rates outside, so pls book through a local agent.

Romantic Elegant Room and Supportive Staff”
Our stay at Aonang Phu Petra was a recommendation from my bro-in-law and never did it disappoint us. Backdrop view of the stone mountain behind was a warm welcome. Rooms were really huge and I fell in love with the bathroom that is rustic yest elegant.Staff are really great and does beyond what was asked for. They wont push you to take packages yet happily explains the sites to visit around Krabi. Food is not so commendable but what the heck, you're in Thailand so street food is way more fun and authentic than sitting in a restaurant. As we are an adventurous type, every night we hop to our rented motorcycle and wander around town and the beach sides at night looking for sprawling good food where you can see lots of local flock and you can never be wrong. We are mostly delighted with this hotel for the value for money and the amazing attention to details.. See my snapshots to show what I mean.

We Just loved this place”
Phu Petra was just simply a breath of fresh air. The rooms were fantastic, the gardens beautiful, the pool area called out to us everytime we passed and the customer service was impeccable. From the moment we crossed the threshold, until the momement we left nothing was too much trouble, we vowed to return and all being well we will. I also found the Aonang area iteself to be a great place, as it was very easy to get out to the islands and I imagine spending a significant amout of time here would be very easy to do.

a beautiful place with a very friendly staff”
We stayed in the Hill view Villas. We arrived via boat from Railey. Though we had not checked in yet, we got to pick the shuttle from McDonald to Phu Petra for free - albeit we had to wait an hour there but the hotel staff was very forthcoming and kept us informed. Upon arrival, Shaleef showed us to our room. He was very informative and helpful throughout our stay. Our room was a hillview villa, but being the corner room, the view was blocked due to a high wall. It is a beautiful view and the other rooms would have enjoyed it - but the staff did make a genuine effort to shift us to another room when we complained about the same. The room itself was wonderful with a very nice bathroom. The minibar is reasonably priced. The motorcycle renting can be arranged from the hotel itself.

Spacious room with wonderful features”
This hotel is quite strategically located with 3mins drive away from the Mcdonalds at Aonang Beach area. Along the main road there are various pharmacies and convenient stores, only flaw is Phu Petra is located quite deep inside and quite dark and dangerous to walk back at night. The thing splendid about the hotel is its huge room and laid back design suitable for a total relaxed trip. Its toilet is equipped with a bigger than normal sized bathtub and a separate standing shower area. The rooms comes with great scenic views facing the cliffs, ensuring breathtaking morning moments everyday.

A perfect resort for a quiet getaway”
I absolutely enjoyed my stay in Phu Petra. The staff were attentive and friendly. They never failed to greet me when they see me and ask how I am and my plans for the day. One of the front desk staff, Jirah (if I got the name right), even recommended me the best place to get a local dish that I've been looking for. And the hotel shuttle driver helped to drive me to the stall and waited for me to buy the food before driving me back to the resort. Top class resort with world class staff!

A beautiful and serene getaway in Krabi.”
I stayed in Phu Petra with 2 friends for 4 days and it was wonderful. The room was spacious and clean. Especially loved the bathroom. The tv had some pretty decent channels e.g. HBO. The staff was the best I've come across of all my hotel stays; always welcoming and helpful. They even helped my friends bake a cake for my beautiful b'day surprise at the very last minute! The next morning I found a bday card on my bed too. Phu Petra is nice and quiet, pretty secluded from the main road. It has a nice cosy pool, with a gorgeous hillview. Not recommended for those who are looking forward to a wild nightlife. Comfortable pillows and beds with clean sheets.
