Please can any of you advise me on Krabi, weather ect. what there is to do there girlie bars ect. I will be going in November with my wife , two friens and my daughter she is 19 months old.

Any ideas on small guest houses or hotels to stay in around 1000 batt per night.

There are a few nice spots in Krabi Province , the most popular being AuNang , only 14 km's away. This once sleepy little village has seen the developers move in over the last few years but it is still a good base from which to explore that area. There are plenty of restaurants there , for some reason mainly Italian (?) and a scattering of bars. A few girlie bars in 'centrepoint' but they're not that appealing , to me anyway.

KoLanta is another favourite spot fairly close to Krabi Town , an hours drive or boat ride away . This island has a few nice beaches on it and plenty of bungalows etc scattered down the west coast . Boat trips to some of the other islands easily had . Limited nightlife , comprising mainly of a few beach bars.

Those are the 2 main touristy areas close to Krabi Town. Krabi Town itself is used mainly as a transit point for people traveling on to other places. Not beautiful , not ugly and maybe worth a stay for one night or so .

The 2 neighbouring provinces , Phangnga and Trang have some beautiful spots too but are a lot less developed when it comes to catering for foreigners .

Either way , enjoy your trip.

Definately recommend Koh Lanta, especially for the family. It's still not too commercialised and lots of beautiful beaches. Nice bungalows with a varied price range. :cool:
