Ao Nang is a beach town on the Andaman coast of Krabi province, with a long bay, a lively evening scene along its main roads and hills rising behind the coast. Eco Inn Cottage by Aonang Hill sits in this hilly setting, and several of its rooms look onto the mountains, so the green slopes are part of the view from the hotel. The beach is the focus of daily life here, with longtail boats leaving from the bay for trips along the coast.

Ao Nang Beach is 900 m away, and the Ao Nang Night Market, 1.4 km from the hotel, is a good place to find local goods and food stalls in the evening. Railay Beach, 2.4 km away, is reached by boat, with its limestone cliffs rising above the sand. Tiger Cave Temple (Wat Tham Suea), 14.4 km away, is a Buddhist temple built into a limestone hillside, and it is a visit that takes you away from the beach for a while.

A day in Ao Nang can combine the beach with a longtail boat trip to the islands of Poda and Tup, which leave from the bay. The Hong Islands, a group reached by boat from the bay, make a day out on the water. Krabi International Airport is 18.1 km away, and boats to the islands can be disrupted by rough seas in the rainy season.
