Baan Gecko  

On Krabi’s Ao Nang coast, a 4-star villa retreat set about 5 km from the city center. Steps from Ao Pai Plong, Railay and Ao Phra Nang beaches, and a short drive to Nopparat Thara Beach, Ao Nang Krabi Boxing Stadium and the Ao Nang Landmark Night Market.

Rooms feel like private hideouts — air-conditioned suites with private plunge pools, balconies or patios, LCD/TV and DVD players. Many units include full kitchens (fridge/freezer, microwave, stovetop) and deep soaking tubs in the bathroom. Expect a blend of comfort and practical touches, plus a massage room on-site for low-key pampering.

Multiple pools (private in-room pools, outdoor and indoor pools), a diving club and a BBQ area set the scene for active days and chilled evenings. Rent bicycles, book excursions at the tour desk, or unwind with on-site massage services. Free self-parking, laundry, luggage storage, car rental and a safe-deposit box keep practical needs covered — and wake up to sea-breeze mornings near the beach.

Complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected. Shuttle services — area shuttle and roundtrip airport shuttle — are available for a surcharge, and the property offers luggage storage for convenience.

An on-site restaurant serves local cuisine, and room service is available during limited hours. English breakfasts are offered daily for a fee to start your day before hitting the nearby beaches or night market.
