The ShellSea

ocean view room was amazing. good sport facilities. we made good use of the shuttle service into ao nang but one improvement would be to have greater capacity for this shuttle service. Food options in hotel wasn’t great (but found an amazing thai restaurant 5 mins walk which we went to for lunch 4 out of 5 days)

The area is so quiet. Staff is friendly The room is extraordinarily clean. I’m giving them 5 stars +

Excellent location for retreat. Great services from hotel staff.

We stayed in 8 different hotels on our trip throughout Thailand and this was by far the most expensive and most disappointing g. The hotel was a very nice hotel, but for the price and location I would not stay here again. This hotel was 2.5X more expensive than the hotel we stayed at in Ao Nang beach, so I was expecting a whole lot more luxury and service. It is out of the touristy area and not easily accessible to anything local in Ao Nang. Save your money and book someplace else.

We hadn’t booked to stay in the shell sea and went to another hotel that was rated 4.5 star (beyond resort krabi) that clearly wasn’t. We switched hotels and got the pool side room in the shell sea. It cost a little more but tbh was well worth it. The hotel was perfect, great service, the rooms were modern and clean with excellent WiFi which is rare in these parts whilst the staff were so attentive and helpful. If we’d stayed in our previous hotel for the 4 nights then it would have ruined part of our trip but the shell sea was excellent. We’d definitely stay here again and would definitely recommend it.
