The ShellSea Krabi I Luxury Beach Front Resort & Pool Villas

The location was pretty good. The sunset was not very good as it is behind the property, but the sunrise probably was! The TV had an English movie channel but it was buggy. The pool bar was a highlight! The bacon was like jerky. The rest of the food was pretty good. The spa is beautiful too with a steam shower! Birds make their nests in the walls!

It’s quite secluded which is why we picked it. It’s quiet and honestly a paradise. However if you want to do loads of stuff and activities you will need to get a taxi/grab/bolt everywhere, there is very little to do in walking distance and there are no paths to walk for the most part, so it really depends on what you are looking for. They have a small vehicle which goes to ao nang 4 times a day. Once in ao nang (20 mins away) you can get boats to Railay beach, or other islands. It’s busy and touristy in ao nang so the shellsea is a nice escape from this. 20 mins the other way is Krabi town which we preferred, with the mountain monument (highly recommend but only if you are fit!!). A grab/bolt here is about 180baht each way. The hotel breakfast is lovely with coffees made to order. There is another restaurant which overlooks the beach and sea which is really nice too. The pool area overlooks the bay and is quiet and peaceful. Very well maintained and clean. There are lots of activities on at the hotel if you prefer to stay around the hotel such as Pilates, yoga, Muay Thai, kayaking, etc. Staff are friendly and attentive.

lovely hotel but a bit isolated, although the hotel did offer a shuttle service into town, it wasn't at good times or frequent. the one time we tried to use it we were told it was fully booked. Everything else was good, although the breakfast could be better, poor pastries and poor service with ordering hot food and coffee

Well hotel needs renovation.... And need to improve quality of food... Breakfast not upto 5 star standards.... Staff are nice, polite,and friendly.. Location is bit far from center, Krabi.... Sauna and steam has to be paid.. Not free unlike in other 5 stars....

The great 5 star hotel and it is just like having a private beach access for all Shellsea customers Services are awesome...hotel members are very polite and they want to help as much as they can. The resort has a mini pool bar and private pool also for some rooms. They took 1000 baht for security money as deposit for 1 day.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Great modern facility. Wonderful service. Beach front location. Shuttle bus into Ao Nang was a great service.
