I had a great stay at Arawan Krabi Beach Resort. The staff were super friendly and went out of their way to help, which made my time there very enjoyable. However, the beach itself wasn't well-maintained, so if you're looking for a pristine beach experience, this might not be the spot for you. But the pools were fantastic and I loved the view. Overall, I'd recommend it, just be aware of the beach situation.
