Jinnie's Place

We had some initial trouble gettng a transport from Krabi Airport and arrived at Jinnie's which is now called Raks Thai under new management in a rain squall with roadwork after winter floods making it look a bit doubtful. Yet we stayed and stayed - a full week. The freshwater pool is great, clean cool. Most cottages are brick with outdoor bath and toilet but modern and efficient. Just 7 minutes walk to the less busy east part of Ao Nang but 10 restaurants within 15 min. walk, a money exchange and 7-11 just up the road. We got a great 1,000 baht island speed-boat cruise arranged with quality van pickup and had only some puzzles about room-cleaning schedules. New owner also runs the Muay Thai boxing stadium across the street. Some noise at night - but mostly birds, and some insects at night. This is NOT the 5-star resort and does not claim to be. Good value for money. Relax and let down the hair at this modestly but decent mini-resort.

Shortly: Did not get any food at the hotel restaurant, huge spiders and cockroaches in the room, we had to buy poison and spray it every night in the room, otherwise those creatures will crawl on you bed. The place it totally "dead"!

Wouldn't go ever again! Way Overpriced, clearly the place looks abandoned and rude staff! There is other nicer places in the area with cheaper prices. They charged us when arrived there, after a long travel 100BHT for two cornetto ice cream worth everywhere else 50BHT! Thanks but no thanks
