  1. Can someone please give me an idea where the new Takola Marina Ao Nang is located? Wannabe comedians need not reply with "Ao Nang". Just a description of the nearest big resort, or some kind of marker.

    Also, the City Plaza Krabi Town, is that going in on the riverfront by all the seafood restaurants?

    Thanks, GOM

    The Port Takola Marina will be located in Baan Laempho--on the way to Fossil Shell Beach

  2. One good school not mentioned is Montfort College--while not an "international" school it's English and science and math students in the English Program are always at the top of the academic competitions with the international schools. It has an excellent academic reputation and its feeder universities in the US are the University of Michigan and Yale.

    The Port Takola Marina is located in Ban Laempho, not far from the Susan Hoi--Fossil Shell Beach--it won't be operational until 2013

  4. ... However, having said that, the Samoan alert was cancelled yesterday as well and yet as Churchill posted there was in fact a tsunami that killed 99 people. So maybe these bulletins are not so hot?

    The tsunami from this earthquake in Western Sumatra was reported to be 27 cm. only. The tsunami alert has been canceled in Indonesia according to CNN at 6:50pm Thai time

  5. Jesus! The OP asked what the development was between Tonsai and Aonang. it IS Centara. Crikey, i have lived here for 6 years and i know the place well. But no, you must be right.

    Pai Plong is the name ofthe area between Ao Nang and Tonsai where the Centara is

  6. Thinking of making a few days off from work in Krabi.

    Where to stay in Krabi or Ao Nang, silent, as natural as possible, somewhere small place local ownership prefered.

  7. House construction & Architect.

    Hi. I just bought 1 rai oustside Ao Nang. Hope to start building this year. But where can I find an Architect, design or pictures? I have search the internet for weeks, but cant find anything. It seams that the first person that has a wheelbarrow is architect, constructor and constractor! My Thai "wife-to-be" is laid back;"don´t wullly, we find one when start"!

    I looking for a combination of cement and wood. I like the traditional Thai houses.

    Help!!

    Take a look at www.thai-land-house.com

    Try Ton Company or Krabi Consultants, both in Ao Nang, western managed with many years of building experience with projects for reference and most imortantly, legally registered with all the correct licenses. Beware of local builders or westerners that aren't licensed, they will be gone in a flash at the first sight of a problem.
