This was listed as a 4 star hotel - however it exceeded our expectations. The room was lovely - really big with all the amenities you would expect. The hotel grounds were beautiful… Swimming pool clean and beach towels available for sun beds. Breakfast had everything you could wish for - and those little Portuguese custard tarts were just to die for! Service was faultless- the staff went out of their way to help you have everything you need. I cannot praise the staff enough - we felt really cared for. Nothing was too much trouble. The hotel is remote - the only thing outside is a 7 / 11 and a couple of restaurants. However one of the restaurants serves wonderful fish. The beach opposite rocky - however a couple of nice beaches near bye - 200B taxi ride away.

The Elements Resort is absolutely exemplary and you will find the traditional glowing, warm Thai hospitality here. We had the most perfect time here during our one week stay and would most definitely recommend this hotel. Thank you so much for making our stay feel like a home away from home. I would first like to thank Justin for going above and beyond helping us with any of our needs and future travel plan arrangements, being an excellent host and pouring all his commitment for making both the Christmas and New Years events at The Elements enjoyable. Thank you Jona and all of the reception team for all of the insight into our island hopping plans in Krabi and helping us with anything we required, they really made sure we were looked after. I would like to thank Lek and the entire restaurant team for all the delicious food, a huge selection was provided daily and accommodated for our vegetarian diet, and being so hospitable. Our driver from The Elements was already waiting for us at the airport, and was swift and friendly. When we first arrived at The Elements, you are greeted with a warm smile and a cold flannel and a welcome drink, whilst you check-in from all the reception team. The resort is a secluded slice of heaven; the gardens and grounds are beautiful, well kept and luscious. It is a haven for wildlife, we saw so many beautiful butterflies darting around the plants. A very peaceful and serene environment. Thank you to Deach and Kevin who helped us with our heavy luggage; Deach helped us get onto longboats and assist us with the wheelchair on our day trips, as well as offering a helping hand whenever we came back to the resort, thank you so much. For our room, we chose the Poolside Premier room for our honeymoon stay and it was top tier. Our direct access pool was away from the main pool, so it was quiet and was very private. The room is well decorated and has a lovely dark wooden exterior throughout, air conditioning was available and the beds are very big. We had a make up table and the bathroom was superb, with a lovely large mirror, big jacuzzi bathtub and large shower facility too. We were also very grateful to the housekeeper, who was competent and always kept our room clean, tidy with our towels and sheets refreshed regularly. Thank you so much. The laundry smells so nice too! The morning breakfast buffet is amazing. Lek and the restaurant team provided outstanding service and food choice. The food is varied everyday and everything tastes amazing, our favourites were the  refreshing fruit and the delicious Thai food (the Pad Thai and the southern style noodle) they catered us Vegetarians, so there were dishes with yummy tofu included, too. We went to the restaurant for our dinner too, the a la carte menu has a huge selection, we ordered room service a couple of times when we were tired from a long day out. Jona and the reception team were excellent in organising tours for us and making sure we had lunch boxes on our day trips, we took a private longboat for Hong Island and the Four Island tour, which is totally worth paying for doing it privately. We dream of going to Hong island and Poda Island again. There are many local beaches nearby which are gorgeous too, a favourite of ours was Tubkaek beach (close to the resort) which is a gorgeous quiet beach with views of the islands in the distance, with beautiful white sand. Do not miss this beach! We visited Klong Muang beach which is very nice too with white lovely sand and a clear blue sea. The Ao Nang night market was great fun for shopping and buying street food. The resort has its own spa, we which we throughly enjoyed having massages, foot scrubs and pedicures. May was really helpful to my partner in helping relieve pressure in her ears. Thank you to all the ladies who work at the spa. All in all we had a superb time, I simply cannot fault anything. The Elements is luxurious and makes you feel like you have a second home. It really struck us how imperitive it is to help small businesses and supporting the locals in Krabi. It does have competition in the area but please do not give The Elements Resort a miss. We were so sad to leave on our last day. We would happily come again to The Elements in the future. Emma and Charlotte

“Quiet and very well kept.”

A really nice and quiet hotel. I’m amazed it’s not busier than it was. It’s a couple of miles out from Ao Nang beach. A quiet place and really well kept.

A really nice and quiet hotel. I’m amazed it’s not busier than it was. It’s a couple of miles out from Ao Nang beach. A quiet place and really well kept. As usual the staff are really nice and helpful. The room was nice but the beds were hard. Breakfast was great but found dinner and lunch less so as it didn’t seem very fresh. Almost opposite the hotel is a restaurant called See the Sea which was fantastic so we tended to opt for dinner there instead. There is a beach the other side of the road from the resort but with the mineral plant close by, we were not sure how safe it would be. I’d recommend the hotel but being as remote as it is, it’s unlikely I’d return.
