Overview
Centara Ao Nang Beach Resort & Villas Krabi sits on the headland above secluded Pai Plong beach, a short walk or boat hop from the heart of Ao Nang yet tucked away from its busy strip. Around 190 rooms, suites and hillside pool villas step down toward the sea, with multi-level pools, a spa and several dining options. As an operated resort it is booked by the night or on long-stay packages rather than sold as residences, so the indicative monthly figures reflect long-stay rates rather than residential rent. Ao Nang itself has the province's widest choice of everyday rentals — see the Ao Nang area guide.
BAANLYY is a data-and-tools platform, not the property's broker or operator — listings are not guaranteed unless from a verified partner. Krabi has very limited freehold condo stock, so confirm tenure, foreign-ownership quota and current pricing before committing to any purchase or long stay.
