About Krabi and Ao Nang
Krabi province on Thailand's Andaman coast is famous for limestone cliffs, clear water, and easy access to islands such as Phi Phi, Hong Island, and local four-island loops. Ao Nang sits within this network of beaches, piers, and national park zones, making it practical for both short holidays and week-long stays. Infrastructure has improved steadily — ATMs, mini-marts, clinics, and tour counters are common — yet the region still feels more relaxed than busier beach hubs.
Check In Krabi publishes guides, hotel lists, restaurant picks, and public place notes to help visitors compare options before they book. Always cross-check ferry times, park fees, and national holiday crowds because conditions change by season. Respect marine parks: avoid single-use plastic on boats, do not stand on coral, and follow staff instructions during snorkeling stops.

We dined here twice during our stay and it was exceptional both times. The food was absolutely outstanding.
We had the green curry, Massaman curry, Penang curry, chicken satay, and spring rolls — every single dish was full of flavour and beautifully cooked. The curries were rich and fragrant, and the starters were just as delicious.
Everything tasted so fresh and authentic. We would highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely return!
Kodam Kitchen was so good that we came back three times — and would have happily returned again. The menu is extensive, offering a great variety of Thai dishes, all well prepared and full of flavor.
The space is large, airy, and lively without feeling chaotic, making it a very pleasant place to spend a relaxed evening. Service is efficient, and the overall atmosphere feels authentic rather than overly touristy.
Another highlight is the pricing: excellent value for the quality and portions served.
A place we would absolutely recommend and return to on our next visit to Krabi.
Visited Kodam Kitchen in Krabi and absolutely loved it. One of the best places for seafood in the area. fresh, well cooked, and full of flavor. Their Pad Thai was excellent, perfectly balanced and authentic. We also tried their authentic Thai drinks, which were very refreshing and unique.
The place is very busy, but the service was still friendly and efficient. A must visit spot in Krabi if you want real local taste and great seafood. Highly recommended!
This restaurant fully deserves its spot on every "Top Restaurants in Ao Nang" list. Located very close to the main Ao Nang Market, it's easy to spot and offers convenient parking (space for 4-5 cars, plus ample street parking typical of Thailand).
The cuisine here is nothing short of fantastic and truly unforgettable. We tried several dishes, and all were superb, but the highlight is undoubtedly their curry. It possesses a deep, complex flavor profile—it’s very reminiscent of the best South Indian and Sri Lankan tastes, yet distinctly unique and absolutely hits the spot. The menu is extensive, offering plenty of excellent options to choose from. My only minor nitpick (and I mean minor, as I’ve had one of the best ever in Koh Samui) was the Mango Sticky Rice, but this is honestly a small detail compared to the excellence of everything else.
The staff is prompt, incredibly helpful, and understands basic English well, making ordering a breeze. They genuinely assist you through the menu, ensuring a great experience. We enjoyed sitting on the bench outside near the entrance, taking in the atmosphere.
The prices are perfectly commensurate with the quality of the food and the overall experience you receive. It's a fantastic culinary investment for anyone visiting Ao Nang. If you love curry, this is a non-negotiable stop!
Great value price ratio and delicious traditional Thai food. If you don't want to wait hours, better reserve.
The second brach at the beach some km's away is much more peaceful and super beautiful. A shuttle service is available.
