Aonang Viva Resort is a 3-star hotel located in Soi 8 of Ao Nang, within walking distance of the main beach and the night market of this coastal town in Krabi province, in southern Thailand. The property offers an airport shuttle from Krabi International Airport, with an estimated travel time of 45 minutes. Its positioning as a neighbourhood resort makes it a practical base for exploring the region on foot or through organised excursions.

Why stay here

We selected this property primarily for its location in the heart of Ao Nang: the beach, departure points for Railay Beach, and the night market are all within walking distance. We recommend it to travellers seeking a functional and well-positioned base for embarking on excursions to the surrounding islands, without relying on taxis for daily travel. Couples on a discovery holiday and groups of three or more will find suitable room configurations among the available categories.

Guests consistently highlight the excellent location as the main advantage, along with the clean and refreshing pool. The laundry service at reception and practical touches (beach bags, towels, umbrellas) are also well-appreciated. One thing to keep in mind: some rooms are located in a building across the street, which may come as a surprise upon arrival. Reviews also mention that soundproofing could be improved and, in certain categories, bathrooms are quite compact.

Atmosphere

The hotel features an unpretentious tropical resort style, with gardens and terracing around the pool. The atmosphere is lively, reflecting the commercial and touristy character of Ao Nang's neighbourhood. Reception is open 24/7. Worth noting: the property is spread across several buildings, with at least one situated across the street, which may be a factor to consider depending on your room allocation, particularly for families with children.

Rooms

The hotel offers several room categories, from Standard to Deluxe, including configurations for two guests, triple rooms, and a family option accommodating up to four adults. The Deluxe Jacuzzi/Family category is the only one with a jacuzzi and a four-person capacity. A Deluxe Pool Access room offers direct pool access. Details for each category are available in the fact sheets below.
