I agree in the description of the hotel with previous reviewers, with a few remarks. . .
I categorically do not support the admiring opinions about the village of Ao Nang.
The difference in price between the hotel restaurants and the dining rooms of the village of Ao Nang is about 25-50%, the quality of the village eateries is an order of magnitude worse. The only thing that is twice cheaper is wine, you can’t argue here. There are good establishments in the same building as McDonalds, you can even find a Starbacks coffee shop there. There is also a cool and stylish Del Rocks restaurant, the dishes and wine list are excellent, here I advise you to try Thai cuisine, because in other establishments you won’t even understand what you order, and the waiters - what you want.

SPA treatments and massages definitely in the hotel or nowhere! In the village there is a complete lack of sanitation, and if it is a SPA of another hotel, then the prices will be correspondingly higher than in the village.
There are a lot of ants in the room (small and cute), you somehow don’t notice them and get used to them, the main thing is not to leave food and damp things on the floor - they gather there in large numbers.
Monkeys seem cute, but then it’s a disaster, they roam like crows along the balconies of rooms and devour everything in their path, don’t believe that you can sit with a monkey on the balcony or stroke it in your arms, the monkey is a herd animal, swoop in like gypsies, snatch from your hands, everything that you have prepared for them, you will not be able to feed "that baby over there" - adults will eat everything. Enough aggressive creatures, this is fully manifested on the monkey trail (pedestrian road to the village), where they feel on their territory (try to drive them off the path). This, of course, does not mean that they pounce on you when you walk by, but you should not pay special attention to them and do not carry food with you.
Everything on the territory of the hotel is nice, beautiful and moderately well-groomed, and also boring, everything works until 23-30 and that's it! Even the night bar Deep Blue. But in the village you will not find entertainment either. If you are going here - do not flatter yourself with hopes that the world is full of adventures, you will not find them. They say that you can find something in Krabi, but to go there, you either have to hang out there, or go drunk through this footbridge (and even in the heat). In short - a beach holiday and all.
The boat service got sick, I forgot to book a place there or back - go on foot. I have never sailed on a Longboat fishing boat directly to the village (it looks so terribly weak, and they land it in the water on the beach), it’s better by boat to Nopparattara pier, and from there by tuk-tuk.
