Phanom Bencha Mountain Resort - Krabi

We stayed here for one night on our way to Lanta after arriving at Krabi Airport. It's a 30-minute drive from the airport, but we could have easily stayed for a week. The bungalows are scattered beautifully on a hill, surrounded by a variety of plants and trees. Waking up in the morning, we were greeted by stunning views of the towering mountains and cliffs. Sohn, the owner, is incredibly friendly and makes delicious coffee. His garden, complete with a small river, is a delightful place to spend hours exploring.

I often feel uncomfortable staying in secluded places where I feel out of place, but Sun and his family are exceptional hosts who made me feel right at home. They are very in tune with nature, and the surrounding landscape is breathtaking. The wildlife is impressive and always nearby. The food was delicious and served with care. I highly recommend a visit to their establishment!

I ordered a tofu salad for 100 baht, which was a basic salad with vegetables, lettuce, and tofu on top. They also offer vinegar, oil, and some Western spices for added flavor. The restaurant is located about a 20-minute drive from Krabi, with the Tiger Cave Temple along the way. The setting is stunning, nestled in the jungle next to karst mountains. They offer lodges for rent at 600 baht per night in April-May, though prices may be higher in the high season.

This is an amazing restaurant with a very friendly family running it. I'm so happy to have found this place and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place to relax and rejuvenate.

The hospitality they get here is the best. Eating is amazing. in the rainforest they see birds, fish, lizards. it's beautiful. I can't judge it high enough. families are very welcome. we were on the move with children.
