To keep a day going with children in the rain, Aonang Phu Pi Maan Resort and Spa is the first candidate to compare. An indoor pool, a free kids club, a library and kitchen rooms make long hours at the hotel easy, and Ao Nang's centre is about 1 km away in a straight line when the rain stops.
Centara Life Phu Pano Resort Krabi suits groups with many children thanks to bunk-bed rooms, a playground and an indoor pool, while Red Ginger Chic Resort and Aree Tara Resort are small hotels for walking to and from Ao Nang. With modest facilities at the latter two, fill rainy-day plans with massage and outside restaurants.
Railay Princess Resort & Spa has a kids club and an indoor pool so you can stay in whatever the weather, but the boat transfer is a given. Rough seas can make the boat uncomfortable, so leave slack on arrival and departure days.
Hotels outside Ao Nang make the facilities the centre of the plan. Amari Vogue Krabi fills a day with its private beach and indoor pool on Tubkaak Beach, and Pimalai Resort & Spa with its kids club and tennis court on Koh Lanta. Put the transfer time into the schedule first for both.
Flight and hotel rates vary by date. With rain in mind, check the free-cancellation deadline, and confirm breakfast inclusion and transfer options on the listing.
An indoor pool, kids club, spa or library keeps the day going when a tour is cancelled. Each card lists only confirmed facilities, so compare the ones you need.
Within about 1 km in a straight line, you can walk to restaurants and tour departure points. Railay, Tubkaak and Koh Lanta need transfer methods and times calculated separately.
Two-bed rooms, bunk beds and rooms with a kitchen and microwave help when generations travel together. The age range in each child policy also differs by hotel.
Rates and free-cancellation windows open differently in the low season. Breakfast inclusion and transfer options vary by date, so check the listing before booking.
STAY STYLE
Hotels within about 1 km in a straight line are easy to walk out of during a dry spell. Facilities differ widely by hotel.
Time at the hotel runs long, so kids clubs and indoor pools become the benchmark.
With some distance from Ao Nang, hotel facilities and the beach are the centre of the plan.
The transfer takes time, so it is best to set one day of the break aside for it.
