The beach is a short 12 minutes’ walk away, but you will notice that most guests tend to gather around the family pool. It’s been laid out to give parents ample sun-lounger time, and children a rowdy ruck-about sliding down to the water!

This is the Krabi hotel that is geared toward adult-friendly vacations while welcoming children with open arms too!

A restaurant is available at the resort, which is a great option, if your little ones are too tired to head out and scout for a dinner spot (Ugh, kids hate that!) – after a whole day of fun in the water!

5. Weee… It’s an indoor Sealife & Safari World!! – 8Icon Ao Nang Krabi

I loveeeeee this place! And I bet your kids will too! Why? It’s not just because of the B-shaped swimming pool (with a kids pool) and cheerful red loungers, but also thanks to the colourful paintings and graffiti throughout the stay.

In each room, you’ll find either an underwater or rainforest-themed wall to bring some imagination into the space – and as you walk around, you might even spotother graphics like a scuba diver.

The Quadruple Room also boasts a bunk bed, two single beds and a terrace – the perfect fit for a family of 4.

6. Splash around and have fun at this beachside resort – Purin Resort & Restaurant

Although staying at the beachside is preferred for beachgoers, it’s usually really expensive and not worth the price (especially if you can stay just a few minutes further away for much less). But what if you get this experience and stay by the beach at an affordable price?

At Purin Resort & Restaurant, you can enjoy this win-win situation and create fun memories with your loved ones. How so?

Outdoors:
Swim around and relax at the pool facing the beach. And it’s also so close to the beach, so you can walk to the beach and swim there instead, if the family gets bored with swimming in the resort.

Indoors: Have an enjoyable private time with the family in your family room, with two beds (for 4 people) and a private outdoor bathroom in the middle of a mini garden.

Sounds amazing right?

7. Fishes, nets and everything fishing! – Marina Express – Fisherman Hotel – Ao Nang

Enjoy fishing? You might not be able to fish here (after all, it’s a hotel), but doesn’t mean you must part with your favourite sea activity.

At this fishing-themed stay, you’ll find fishes, nets and other fishing accessories hanging as decorations throughout the hotel. You can also be a mermaid (or just swim normally) in the pool of this white, blue and brown-toned villa – the colours of the Andaman sea and pier.

For families, I highly recommend staying at the Villa Two Bedrooms where there’s a room for your kids, a room for you and your partner, and a terrace you can all relax around. How lovely!
