Located on the west side of Krabi only 15 mins away from the night market. The facility has a lot of physical activities with an olympic swimming pool, boxing ring and a gym (indoor and outdoor).

Gorgeous hotel
This was the perfect start to our Thailand holiday. A beautiful hotel, clean and comfortable. We loved the range of wellness activities on offer without it feeling like a ‘wellness retreat’. The staff are incredible and can’t do enough to help you, super polite and friendly. We also loved the beach club across the road where Varana guests get free use of the beach beanbags. Perfect hotel in a great location.

10/10 Exceptional

One may say it is expensive for thailande… but it worths the price. The hotel is incredible, really. Depending on what you are looking for, but Klhong Muang beach is not crowded at all compared to Ao nang. So peacefull with some good restaurants on the beach. Restaurants of the hotel are expensive compared to ones outside, indeed, but quality of the food is way higher.

8/10 Very good

Highly recommend!
Absolutely beautiful hotel. The entire complex is spotless and well maintained. The rooms were lovely and beds extremely comfortable. Pool areas are brilliant, could do with proper pool table service as it is difficult to get served unless going to kiosk and can take a long time to get food or drink near the pool. All staff are very friendly and helpful.

Stunning property. Great food. Service was excellent. Location is quiet and beautiful beach. Beach club across the street was also excellent and convenient. Overall, the stay was one of the best we had.
Darka, 4-night trip

Phenomenal property and such a great experience. We normally leave the hotel to do activities surrounding but had a hard time doing it this time around because Varana had everything you could need at such an affordable price! Food, spa, pools, activities were all amazing and we will be back for sure! This is a MUST stay if you are visiting Krabi!

Luxury last 3 days of honeymoon
This was just luxury for our last 3 nights of honeymoon the horizon sea view room was perfect, the bedding was the most comfortable & the best sleep we’ve ever had! The staff were all so friendly & the food was incredible, breakfast had so much choice the eggs Benedict cooked to perfection. We ate at Sala restaurant & by the pool also & both meals were fantastic. We can recommend the Lamb chops. We really can’t fault this hotel, the facilities, staff, food & rooms were all excellent to finish our holiday. The location was good for us & the beach club just across the road was a perfect spot on the beach. We actually booked this 2 weeks before as our original choice hotel on its own beach & needed a speedboat to get to suddenly started to get some really poor reviews & we were getting worried but we are so glad we changed to the Varana as it really was top class

It was a nice hotel but it is a smaller property with little options for dining.
Parmdeep, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Property, service and staff were outstanding. My only complaint was I paid extra for an ocean horizon view and my view was completely obstructed. They gave me a free Naan Wellness voucher to compensate which was incredible. I highly recommend this resort.
Marc, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved our stay at Varana Hotel in Krabi. The staff was amazing. The hotel is gorgeous and quiet. We were looking for a bit more quiet and relaxing stay and that's exactly what we got. The food at the restaurants is great. You have to walk accross the street to get to the beach which is gorgeous. The water is shallow so you're able to walk to a small island. Would definitely stay here again.

Such an amazing hotel! Stunning! Beautiful Beach across the road which is a lot more relaxed than other busy areas. Lots of great places to eat and drink nearby if you want to try something different. Really good gym and pool facilities and super polite staff. Loved this place. Hope to come back one day.

They have everything. Plenty to do. It’s away from the “hustle” of the backpacker areas, but a Tuk Tuk can get you there just out the front. Staff are excellent and the rooms are just awesome. We will be back!

2/10 Poor

Good solid product. Back-office and admin shockingly poor (threatened to hold reservations despite credit card guarantee). Slow, inept service. Not five-star by some stretch.

10/10 Exceptional

Really lovely resort - lots of area's to relax and pools are fab. The place is very new so lush facilities. Great to have free kayaking and beach volley ball facilities etc. Breakfast was excellent. Only dislikes were the gym is a bit crowded in am, and no room to be. For a place that is marketed as a wellcation facility I expected yoga options and exercise classes at a reasonable price. Great restaurants at resort (Sala) but rather more expensive then local places which are great. And happy hour cocktaisl very disappointing at the beach club.
