Truly amazing!”
I had such an amazing experience at the Frog and Catfish Country Inn! To start, I was warmly welcomed at the door by Bua and her family. The property is the perfect retreat - lush and peaceful. It's also set up in a way that if you want privacy there are lots of options, including private balconies/decks with your room. However, if you feel like being social, you can hang with guests and the family in the pool area. The food is excellent - my favorite was the whole fish with tamarind sauce and the curries! My garden view room was spacious, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. Frog and Catfish Inn truly excels in attention to detail in every aspect - facilities, staff, cleanliness, etc. I cannot wait to stay with Bua and family again soon!

Beautiful setting, very friendly owners and staff & absolutely delicious food”
I stayed 2 nights at The Frog and Catfish and enjoyed a special, wonderful time. I would recommend staying and eating there and enjoying the idyllic countryside surroundings. I stayed there by myself but Gary, the English owner, Bua, his Thai wife and their family and staff made me feel very welcome and relaxed. I would love to go back to The Frog and Catfish to stay or to eat, or preferably do both, any time. Thank-you Gary!

Wonderful Getaway”
Frog & Catfish may be a little off the beaten path, but it an amazing gem in the Ao Nang area. Our group of four arrived to a very comfortable room and loved the lush, green surroundings of the inn. Not to mention the wonderful pool - a great place to cool down after long days of exploring. In addition to being an amazing place to rest your head, the food on site was delicious!! Our host was very friendly, accommodating and went above and beyond for us during our stay. Already dreaming of coming back!

Small Nice Oasis Away from Crowd”
This Inn was not my original choice of stay but I was impressed by the rave reviews given by the guests. We definitely like to wake up to a sea view every morning but we also like a quiet place away from touristy. There are many such quiet places in Krabi so one major factor that won us over to stay here is the price and the good review on its breakfast & restaurant, and of course, the swimming pool. So we choose Frog & Catfish as it seems to be a good fit - with our rental car, travelling around is not an issue. To be fair I read both the highest and the lowest rating to try to get an honest assessment of this place, and at least what to expect so that we will not be overly disappointed. Though I do not agree that this place should get a 4-star rating because it does not have the amenities a 4-star hotel has, this place is beautiful. I stayed in the Junior Suite (2 level) and love everything there - the balcony with wooden table and chairs - the many ponds and sitting area. A Very relaxing and peaceful ambience so it is like coming home after a tired day out at the beach. This is a family run inn and do expect to be served by children when the adults are busy. The service could be slow (cooking and serving of food) but their attention to our comfort is not compromised. Their American breakfast was very good. Try to dine in, and you will find their local signature dish - fried fish topped with some sauce – very delicious (my husband wants me to write this). Overall the quality of their food is good. The only disappointment we have is the swimming pool – it does not look clean to be swimmed in. But it was made up by the lush greenery, the friendly doggy the dog, and 1 of the many cats who insisted in following us around. We love to come back again. Thanks Gary and Bua for creating such a nice place.

Hidden Gem”
After a hectic time hopping various boats and dealing with the hustle and bustle of Tong Sai and Ao Nang piers Gary, Bua and Auk made us feel welcome the moment we arrived. The room was very clean and larger than we had expected. The landscaping, small fish ponds and design of the restaurant and inn offered a unique charm that was reflective of the staff and community outside of the Inn. The food was hands down some of the best we've had while traveling in Thailand and more than reasonably priced. Gary was able to offer suggestions for daytime activities and even helped us negotiate a lower price for transportation to Phuket. Overall we would rank this establishment among the best that we stayed at (including 5 star name brand resorts). We look forward to returning the next time we travel to Krabi.

The Best Place In Krabi... Ever.! ”
Our stay at The Frog & Catfish was one of the best places we have stayed at in the 10 years we have been coming to Thailand. The food was also the best I have ever tasted in Thailand too. Owners Gary & Bua cannot do enough for you. The whole team at Frog & Catfish are the most lovely people you will ever meet in Thailand... We will return to this fantastic gem of a place again.

Little garden paradise”
My husband and I were very excited to visit the F&C after reading all the rave reviews about the place on agoda. The inn is set within a beautiful mountain area and the bungalow that we stayed for 5nights wad beautiful (and huge too!). It even had satelite tv and we got to watch NBA during our trip. Food was also amazing... you have to try their crab stick if you ever visit this place. I still drool when I think about ir. Very friendly staff family members, which made it feel very safe. We loved everythinf about the place except for the location. It is quite a distance from other towns or villages, and going to Ao Nang or Krabi town would cost 1000 baht/1200baht respectively... which meant we had to stay in the hotel except for when we were on sightseeing tours. This might not be a problem if you are able to ride a motorbike: All in all, we really enioyed the beautiful inn and would definitely recommend it to travellers who are looking for a relaxing place far far away from anything touristy.

Awesome escape for a weekend”
We had a quick getaway to the Frog and Catfish and had a very enjoyable time. It was a really relaxed environment where the team were really helpful, spoke perfect english and made our stay a delight. The food was delicious. We spent our time lounging by the pool and at the well stocked bar. It is also a really close trip to go sea kayaking. I would highly recommend a stay here.

Perfect! We had the best time at frog &catfish and even thought it was far from krabi town and the airport it was well worth it. Gary & Bua are amazing hosts and what they have created is magic! I can live there forever and can't wait to go back.

Great Stay! (but better read it before you book)”
I decided to book bungalow in the jungle near Krabi for 6 nights to try something different and cheaper than week spent in 4-star resort in resort area on Koh Samui we already booked. I have read very promising reviews on Agoda about Frog and Catfish and expected much. To be honest I think some people might be disappointed with the property and even me I think the property very high assesment might be misleading, therefore I write this review for you. It is very quiet place except frog and insect orchestra every night. Expect insects and small lizards everywhere. You will be in jungle. Our boys (4 and 5 years) were scared at the very beginning but in the end of our stay we couldn't find them as they were running everywhere around the property alone. Pros: - Amazing, very friendly and helpful stuff. Speaking few words in English but did all they could do to make our stay there very nice. We were upgraded to better room for free to make our stay more pleasant as there were heavy rains t

It's an unforgettable place in my life”
It's a very nice place,even though the hotel is a little far away from the Krabi Town,but you can take airport taxi or you can contact the hotel to pick you up to this place. The boss is a very nice man, special recommend their food, such as the breakfast and lunch, very delicious, much better than The Hilltop Ao Nang.Their staff also very nice.I think I will never forget this place.

Clean, service was very friendly. Felt like you were at your friend's home for dinner.”
Highly recommend but bring bug spray. I went through central and northern Thailand without a bite but once in krabi, misquotes paradise. The food is delicious, portions are very generous. The owner is accommodating and helped use picked vans for our group of 6. It's very quiet and peaceful here. My husband is a city boy so he had a hard time w the seclusion. More suited for someone who wants to unwind and get away from everything. He wasn't crazy that everywhere we wanted to go took around 30 minutes. Overall, highly recommend for the value. We stayed at another hotel in krabi and let's just say, the customer service here put a better taste in our mouths for krabi.

A paradise for people who want to unwind and enjoy great personal service”
Our 5 days in this little paradise have been absolutely fabulous, even without the room upgrade that gave us a home away from home. From the moment we arrived and were met with smiling staff until the moment we left, we were treated like royalty and tended to every single request. Garry and his family were going through great lenghts, without making it feel uncomfortable, to give us a worry-less stay and make us feel king of the world. The well-thought off layout of this place gives you all the privacy you need, whenever you want it, yet offers a great bar area where you mingle with the other guests and have a chat or laugh. Garry will hardly leave his helm to make sure you have what you want and join you for a chat ranging from football, girls, world history, literature, politics to discussing how the internet is changing are lives. Above all, we have truly enjoyed the amount of attention and care our 1-year old daughter was been given. It felt like having 6 private nannies to make sure we could enjoy the great authentic food and coold beers at piece. A big thanks to the entire team. I hope I can re-visit this place and write a similar review.

Jungle Paradise ”
A very relaxing and calm place. Very friendly staff. A cozy and homy atmosphere surrounds everywhere. Beautiful pool and garden with lots of ponds. Be ready for the poor wifi connection. A perfect getaway solution and totally a hidden gem of Ao Nang area / Krabi region. 15-20 minutes to Ao Nang beach by motorbike.

Great escape ”
It’s already a second time we lived in this wonderful place! Strongly recommend it for a relaxing and peaseful vacation. Having a car would significantly help to combine this rest with sightseeing around Krabi.

Hidden Gem”
We had a large (family( suite on the ground floor which was tastefully decorated with interesting furnishings and nice touches. All the rooms are set in the most beautiful of surroundings ... gardens full of ponds and waterfalls, tropical plants and flowers, birds, butterflies, 6 cats and, last but not least, Doggy the dog! Our included daily breakfast was superb and we ate "in" both nights of our stay as we were so impressed the first night. Delicious food, beautifully presented ... possibly the best we've ever had in Thailand. The location might not suit everyone, but it suited us as once we arrived we never left the place till we checked out. Thanks to Boa and Gary, the owners/hosts, we had a lovely, relaxing stay in their own little paradise.
