Chao Fa Pier Area
Krabi town centre
Fossil Shell Beach
The area around Chao Fa pier has enough to satisfy most travellers. Traffic noise on Uttarakit Rd can be a real problem, so for peace and quiet, get a place well off the road or head somewhere else in town. Hotels in and around the town centre are more convenient to the shops and markets.

22/6 Chao Fa Rd, Krabi
Tel: (075) 612 950;
This place is just down the alley from the Chao Fah Guest House, but a spring running down the alley makes it mossy and hard to navigate, so it's better to arrive by going around the block. The ... Ban To Guest House complete profile

Fossil Shell Beach is a handy getaway both from Krabi and the hordes of tourists you get throughout the province. There are only two places to stay here, that we know of -- if you find some more, let us know. A luxury development is under construction, but for now, it's a laidback sleepy part of Krabi province, with the occasional passing long-tail being about as exciting as it gets. Bring a good book.
