Absolute paradise. Amazing hotel in an amazing quite fairly deserted beach. This part of Krabi is just bliss - very quiet with a few very good restaurants but what more do you need? The hotel is totally beautiful, room is wonderful and staff are amazing. What more can I say - I extended my stay for the longest that I could before I had to get a flight to Kathmandu. If not - I am not sure I would ever have left.

Paradise!
Everything about Nakamanda is amazing. The location makes it a little piece of paradise - it’s so calm and relaxing and the views are just stunning. The staff are all so nice and kind. There are so many little thoughtful gestures, like the constant supply of free ice-cold water at the pool and meals, and the use of a day room if you have an afternoon or evening flight. It’s by far the nicest hotel in the area (which is a very nice area!) We would love to come back.

This is a nice resort really far from the maddening crowd and is a great place for people who likes a private beach and a need to chill. Service by staff is good but the main issue for me is the uncomfortable hard mattress and poor pillows... I had to buy a pillow in order to sleep well

5 star marvellous resort
This resort is pretty amazing , 5 star resort by a semi private beach . The tide makes a very interesting point of view throughout the day and at night it’s right at the hotel restaurant area . The pool is huge and very clean . We had breakfast which changed everyday and dinner which was very good and reasonably priced . The only suggestion I would make is to get someone to clean up at low tide the garbage around the hotel and the staff although very helpful were distracted as many would be looking at their phones . We had to wave to get their attention and the resort had few clients, missing the special attention expected at this type of hotel . We had a great massage at the spa . All in all I highly recommend this beautiful establishment for a romantic getaway or peaceful stay .

Fantastic property , Very nicely appointed rooms, quite and relaxing, great access to semi private beach, beautiful and clean pool , Perfect place for couples not a lot to do for Kids. Be warned the resort is built on terraces and requires a lot of climbing or descending steps and stairs , not for those with difficulty walking or negotiating steps and stairs. We Loved the place must go back again.

The great restaurant sits right on the little bay with the small island across the way and the islands out in the distance was great. Sometimes fisherman passing through to test their luck. When the tide is out, the small island can be walked too. The atmosphere created by all the separated rooms on the sloping hill side was great. The room was quality and had all the features for comfort. Food was fantastic. Above all was the fantastic staff helping out all around.

The property is beautiful and the rooms are comfortable and well maintained. The beachfront property sometimes sits right on the water as twice a day (10am-3pm) and evening/night high tide brings water to the steps of the hotel which is a stunning sight, allowing for even closer swimming and kayaking around island that forms in front. Most impressive is how attentive the staff are, keeping tabs on when we leave, what trips we did (we booked our own but they can help), when we leave. If arriving early or leaving late, they give personal guest rooms for with a lock to rest and leave things in which was certainly a helpful perk.

Great place to relax
Really great room. Really great bed. Very very lovely hotel. Good breakfast -the Asian selections were not that tasty but the western offerings were great. Great location for peaceful relaxation. No night life around there which is a plus for me! Great big pool. All of it was great. The service options are too expensive which is true at all resorts. But you can negotiate your own services yourself. Overall, great place. Will stay again.

Beautiful hotel, stunning views, many restaurants by the beach you could just walk to. The room size was big with his and her sections and a huge bath tub. Was also provided with a beach bag. Staff were very helpful and always smiling. Only downfall was their brochure said there would be a shuttle provided for the Aonang beach and Krabi Town but they stopped that service.

Very nice big pool, peaceful by the ocean and great staff, who were always very attentive. Breakfast was good, and generally I would say this was good value for what we paid for it. Plenty of nice options for lunch / dinner (great value) along the beach by the hotel. There is a lot of steps going down to the pools and dining from the rooms, so if you're elderly or not comfortable with that, this wouldn't be a suitable place for you. The gym is very basic and has equipment, but quite crammed together. Some areas of the hotel feel a little worn/ tired and could do with a slight spruce and refurb in places. We stopped over at the Sofitel and Ritz Carlton up the road for dinner, and those are what you would expect for a 5* rated hotel. I would say by other hotels I've stayed in the region, this is more of a 4*

Good for couples-not so much for families
The resort itself if very nice. We have a 5 yr old son and although the pool and beach kept him entertained, I wouldn't necessarily say this is a resort for families. This is more for couples. It was very quiet (good for parents) but our child was bored. And it's a bit disappointing to spend so much money for your child to be bored.

Amazing room, Huge swimming pool. Beautiful location. Beach from photographs doesn't do it justice! Row of cheap beach restaurants on the doorstep. Staff very warm and friendly. Meals in the hotel restaurant were a little on the expensive side for what you got, however that's a minor mark on an otherwise spectacular stay. I would say also that there are a lot of stairs if you get a room towards the top of the hotel. Nevertheless the exercise probably did us both good!

Highest of recommendations!
This is an amazing place for those looking to get away from it all. Located in a quiet part of Krabi that nonetheless has numerous restaurants and beaches nearby, it is a perfect place to decompress. The design of the resort—with large villas, each surrounded by plenty of greenery—made us feel like we had the place to ourselves. Service was perfect—warm, friendly, and professional, yet unobtrusive as is befitting of a luxury resort. Although some of the spaces are in need of renovation, the classic and spacious design of our accommodations made this our favorite hotel of our honeymoon. We cannot wait to return!

Good stay.
This resort is ideal for couples who love privacy during vacation. The villa is quite big with his & hers sink, large bath tub, separate bath & toilet. My complain here is the toilet doesn't have a door. If you have mobility issues, this might not a place for you since the resort has a lot of stairs and going from room to restaurant or spa or front of hotel entails a lot of walking and climbing of stairs. They have a very good spa for massages and the restaurant serves very good food as well. Breakfast is typically same everyday but with 2-3 new items changed every day. The pool which is facing the beach is quite nice too. Overall, we enjoyed our stay here except on the day prior to our departure, we lost an item inside the room - it wasn't really valuable but somehow it affected our perception of safety in the resort.

We arrived early in the morning. The hotel checked us into their 'Day use' room while our villa was being prepared. This was a nice touch as we could freshen up and rest. The staff were all very helpful and attentive to our needs. There are free shuttles on Sat and Sun night to Krabi night market which we took on Sat. Unfortunately the driver that picked us up from Krabi back to the hotel put us in danger by his reckless driving. It was unpleasant and very dangerous. I do hope he gets reprimanded for this as no guests should feel in danger of their lives. Overall this resort is a bit of paradise!

A true 5 star hotel. Location is fabulous right on a beautiful quite beach with the villas set back in in lush gardens seperated by elevated walkways. Truely amazing, only caution is for less mobile peoole as there were a quite a lot of steps from the lobby to the beach with the rooms between.

Fantastic resort, truly lovely staff
Previous positive reviews of this resort lived up to expectations when we arrived. Room 802 had a fantastic view and offered a really peaceful stay. One of the most memorable things about our stay was the warmth, helpfulness and attentiveness of staff. The resort offers four complimentary trips a week, two to Ao Nang and two to Krabi town. Great drivers, very courteous and safe. There are plenty of good restaurants in local area and on the beach front. Overall conditions of the resort was great, though we noticed that some rooms/ areas were undergoing refurbishment.
