Nestled in Ao Nang, Ava Sea Resort Krabi is lauded for its prime location, with guests enjoying easy access to beaches and local attractions. The resort's atmosphere of modern elegance and the spacious, spotless rooms with comfortable beds and balconies are highlights for many travelers.
While the amenities and cleanliness generally earn praise, reviewers suggest improvements in breakfast diversity and hot water supply. Despite the commendable service, some guests feel the resort lacks value for money and report occasional maintenance and air conditioning issues.

Detailed Reviews
I’m so glad I booked Ava sea for my stay in Ao nang, this place is perfect! Right in the center with so many bars and restaurants to choose from. The hotel is very clean, with nice big rooms and a nice pool. I had breakfast included as well in my rate but I don’t really eat in the morning so I was just having a coffee alongside some fresh fruit, however there is plenty of options to choose from and all the food looked really nice. All of the staff members are brilliant!! Always polite and always willing to help. A very big thank you to Bow from reception, she is so kind and always has the prettiest smile when welcoming guests in the morning. If you ever in Ao nang and not sure where to book give this place a go, you will not regret it! Thank you so much Ava sea for a wonderful stay, I will definitely be back!

This property is close to Ao nang beach, probably within 8 to 10 minutes walk. Every facility imaginable, be it restaurants, travel agencies, tour operators, money changers, laundry shops etc., are nearby. Very convenient.
We got an upgraded room on arrival, so nice of them. Room was spacious, neat, with balcony, comfy bed and pillows, clean wash area and accessories. Hot water was not available in taps but that was fixed in minutes.
Breakfast had good variety for non-veg preferring guests but we veggies did not have any issues with available veg stuff.
However we had a little problem with hotel travel desk, they overcharged us for a tour which, the very same, was available cheaper by almost 25% just outside the hotel...
Anyway, very good services by hotel staff was much appreciated. Recommended.

We just stayed 5 nights at this hotel in the center of Ao Nang Krabi.
Very welcoming and smiling staff with special mention for Notto at the reception and Nike at the restaurant. Thank you for your kindness!
The rooms are spacious and comfortable, but avoid the view overlooking the street as very very noisy until midnight....
Lots of people and restaurants everywhere... the streets are narrow.
The beach is overcrowded. The water is not at all crystal clear because it is polluted by the many tail boats that take you to the small islands nearby! Incessant and noisy comings and goings....
We didn't like Krabi at all. Too bad!

This hotel is just money mad. First of all they tried charging me 2,900 baht which is around £69 for a tiny bit of cake icing on the bed sheet which had melted because the room was so hot. They hadn’t even tried to actually wash the bed sheet but instead splashed a dribble of water on the icing mark in question and said it wouldn’t come out. Second of all after the WORST stay ever due to the beds being rock hard it felt like sleeping on wooden plank and the shower was stone cold the whole entire time we stayed there. We asked if there was any rooms we could pay to upgrade to and one member of staff stated they would try the next morning as other rooms had comfier beds. We follow that up the next day and we were laughed at by the staff in reception stating “all the beds were the same” the room had a disgusting mouldy and damp smell coming from the bathroom and overall the service was just hideous. By far the worst “4 star” hotel I have ever stayed in. I have stayed in budget hotels nowhere near as expensive as this and it has been a much better stay. No care for the customers who are paying their wages. AVIOID!

We stayed at AVA Sea from the 10th to the 13th of December in a pool-view access room. While the room itself was clean and the pool view was excellent, the overall experience left much to be desired.
Pros:
Cleanliness: The room and surrounding areas were well-maintained.
Pool View Access: Undoubtedly the highlight of our stay.
Cons:
Rude Reception Manager: The behavior of the reception manager was unprofessional and disappointing.
No Vegetarian Options: Despite specifically requesting vegetarian breakfast options while booking, the hotel failed to provide any, which was highly inconvenient.
Language Barrier: Most of the staff did not understand or speak English, making communication extremely difficult.
Limited Water Supply: Only two bottles of water were provided per day, which is inadequate for two guests, especially in a hot climate. When we requested additional bottles, the charges were unreasonably high.
Overall, while the pool view was lovely, the service and lack of attention to guest needs brought down the experience. I would rate this stay as average at best.

The hotel has a good location not far from aonang beach, with some nice rooms , however the streetfront rooms are very very loud because of the traffic and lack of noise isolation of the balcony door.
The service during breakfast in the restaurant is awful , a lady names HANA was very unfriendly and an unpleasant person , not even greeting us or telling thank you after we told her our room number , she was just walk away without any kindness with a very grumpy face . Horrible attitude , we have never ever experienced such a behave from any person in any other hotels .The gym is a joke, the equipment is not working properly and missing dumbells . The pool is very cold because never get really sun. The Hotel is not spacious enough you have the condominimum feeling and not a hotelfeeling if you are there .

The stay in this hotel was good but the service was even better. Breakfast could have more variety and I’d also recommend room service. The cleanliness of the room was satisfactory however we did have a problem with the hot water which was ultimately fixed. The highlight during our stay was the front desk employee New, extremely polite, helpful, friendly, approachable. Having her available was a relief, as we knew she went out of her way to help us in everything. Thankyou New and Good Job!

Hi. The location is the most remarkable thing, about 8 minutes’ walk from the beach, on the main road. It means you have everything you need: restaurants, transport, stores, etc.
The rooms are big and comfy with a balcony.
The receptionists are very helpful and kind.
Breakfast is delicious and plenty and the best thing is that it begins at 6 am, which means you can have breakfast and go to the excursions after that.
Maybe the price per night is a bit high for what you expect in Thailand, but comfort and good location have their price. After five days I came to the conclusion that I saved a lot in transport and other staff, so it was not so expensive and I would go to the same place if I went to Krabi again, such a lovely place!!!

As a first time traveller, I was shocked to face the rude behaviour of the reception staff. A little mark on pillow cover was blown out of proportion in the central hall where everyone was present. A five (5) , currency of any country, would have set it alright. I was charged 250 bhats for that. I feel the proper approach would be to collect the actual cost of dry cleaning, if at all required, to remove a small oil stain , would be more appropriate . And instead of shouting at the reception , personal visit to the room would be more welcome.
Freezer open and leaking.
Plain rice only was available for a vegetarian like me. Nothing to go with.
I felt cheated as a senior citizen

Very good service 👍 nice staff cooperation and even breakfast reception staff Bow and Roll are very polite and resourceful I recently stayed at this hotel, and it truly surpassed my expectations. The rooms were spacious, modern, and spotlessly clean, offering the perfect combination of comfort and elegance. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the thoughtful details in the room’s design added a touch of luxury to the experience.
The highlight of my stay was definitely the breakfast. It was by far the best I’ve had at any hotel, with an impressive variety of options. From fresh fruits and pastries to made-to-order omelets and gourmet coffee, everything was fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented.
The recoptionest staff (Roll and Bow) was welcoming and attentive, always going above and beyond to make sure my stay was enjoyable. If you’re looking for a hotel with excellent rooms and an exceptional breakfast, I highly recommend this one. I look forward to staying here again!

yes, It's on request.
There are multiple veg options in Buffet.
I believe you can, but I would get in touch with the hotel and ask them just to be sure.
No idea. But if the dinner is anything like breakfast, you should avoid it.
I'm not Muslim but there are lots of thai Muslim places just up the hill where you can get thai halal food.
I ate in those places. Much better than the hotel. Cheaper too.
