Nut & Non Pool Villa by Duangtham

The property is a single three-bedroom house of 180 m² that sleeps up to six guests, with three bathrooms and a choice of bed set-ups.

Air conditioning, a kitchen, a private pool and a balcony or terrace come with the house, along with bathrobes, a hair dryer, an electric kettle and satellite channels on the TV. The villa is booked as a whole house, so the spaces are yours.

The house has a kitchen, a washer, an iron and coffee or tea facilities, so guests can cook and do laundry in the villa.

Air conditioning and a fan are provided, and the TV offers cable channels. Towels, toiletries, a hair dryer and a shower are available in the bathrooms.

English and Thai are spoken on site, and free parking is available for guests who come by car. The villa suits guests who want their own kitchen and a private pool within one house.

Ao Nang is a busy beach town on the Andaman coast of Krabi province, a long bay lined with shops, guesthouses and tour desks, where longtail boats wait to take visitors out to the limestone islands. The villa stands on Klong Hang Soi 2 in the Ao Nang area, a quieter side street near the local villages of Ban Na Tin and Ban Klong Haeng, so the setting is more residential than the beach strip itself.

Within a short ride is the Ao Nang Night Market, 1.2 km away, where food stalls and evening shopping draw a crowd. Tiger Cave Temple (Wat Tham Suea), a hilltop temple reached by a long flight of steps, lies 14.1 km away. Railay Beach, 4.6 km away, has limestone cliffs and a sandy shore, and it is reached by boat, with Phra Nang Cave on the same peninsula.

A full day could start with a longtail boat from the piers around Ao Nang to Poda Island, a short crossing to a beach with snorkelling, or to the Hong Islands, a group of islands with clear water. Boat trips can be cancelled in rough seas during the rainy months. Back on land, the Ao Nang Night Market is an easy finish to the day.
