Diamond Beach Resort

Its based on a really nice location next to the pier, the view is amazing and the staff was super nice aswell

The restaurant was closed but it wasn’t that big of a deal.

Modern and clean hotel, nice swimming pool area, it is in quite remote and you wouldn't really swim on the beach as it is next to port but generally I was quite impressed

The resort itself is attractive, sea front, and well maintained. The log cabins are smart and well built. We don’t stay in a log cabin but in a separate accomodation block which was very basic but also very cheap. There are cheap restaurants, a supermarket and fruit stalls all within short walking distance. The ferry for Railay beach is a short walking distance away so this is a good location for a stopover from or to Krabi Airport to Railay. The swimming pool and the view over the sea from the front of the resort were good.

Once you leave the resort for a walk it’s not an attractive area, some parts of the town are quite run down. We paid a very cheap price for a room on the accomodation block and the room was very basic. We were only staying one night so we weren’t bothered. But those rooms wouldn’t be great for a longer stay - we’d recommend the log cabins for that. You can’t swim on the beach - it’s muddy and there are mangroves. There is apparently a nice beach to walk to but on our short visit we didn’t go there

Nice pool area and wooden cabins were lovely

- Motorbikes were going past the cabin all night and early hours in the morning … very loud as the cabins are wood. - location is a bit of a nightmare if you’re wanting to go to the nice beaches. Struggled to get a taxi on the way back however perfect if your wanting a place close to the pier
