The Land of Smiles - Accommodation

This big room at Centara could easily sleep four

Besides the bed, another thing I like about the room is the bathroom. It could easily be the size of a room in a condo. Well, with this kinda bathroom, those who know me well enough would probably know the amount of time I spent for each shower :P

The resort's jetty, we were received by the front desk people and the security guard here.

Friendly staff from the resort picking us up from the jetty. Thank goodness we didn't have to carry our luggage, can you imagine how heavy they were after much shopping at Bangkok :P

Centara Grand, the view from the motor boat

Have been staying at Novotel at Siam Square for the past few times we gals were in Bangkok. According to them, good location, indeed it is. As for Krabi, we picked Centara Grand. I would say it’s really exclusive, there is no way one could travel there by road. We had a half an hour drive from the Krabi airport to a jetty and the resort’s motor boat picked us up. I really like the peacefulness and quiet in that resort, have always preferred private beach area too. There was no crowd, no pubs, no loud music…one could just hear the frogs croaking and sounds made by different kinda insects at night. If we opened our balcony door, we could hear the sounds of waves but at the risk of having mosquitoes in our room. Service was great, very attentive, efficient and friendly staff I must say. Ha, simply enjoyed being pampered like a princess. Of course, a princess who’s appreciative of the little things they did to make our stay a relaxing and enjoyable one.
