Khao Tong Villa at Melina  

Perched in Khao Thong on Krabi’s coast, about 6 km from the city center and within easy reach of Tubkaek (Tup Kaek), Ao Phra Nang and Railay beaches as well as Ban Thalane. A beach-vibe villa-hotel combo that works for families looking for sea-and-sand days and quick access to local islands. Family-friendly and ideal for guests who want a balance of beach time and short excursions.

Rooms come air-conditioned with kitchenettes, private patios and flat-screen TVs — think simple, modern comfort with deep soaking tubs and bathrobes in many units. Expect an easygoing, slightly edgy vibe: clean lines, functional layouts and seaside practicality. Some rooms feature separate bathtubs and showers for a little in-room indulgence.

Two pools (indoor and outdoor) set the tone for lazy days and cool dips, while a spa and massage rooms handle the downtime. Activity options include a diving club, bicycle rental, picnic and barbecue areas, a children’s playroom and a tour desk for local excursions — wake up to sea-breeze mornings and head straight out. On-site services include a doctor, car rental and free self-parking.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout the property keeps you connected. Additional practical services include a 24-hour front desk, concierge, luggage storage, laundry and a safe-deposit box; airport and area shuttles are available for a surcharge.

An on-site restaurant and bar serve drinks and meals, with English breakfasts offered daily from 8–11 AM for a fee. Room service is available during limited hours, and the bar/lounge is handy for early evenings after beach or tour days.
