“What strikes me about Centara Life Phu Pano Krabi is how well it balances family needs with Krabi's adventurous side; the bunk beds in family rooms are a thoughtful touch. The infinity pool, with its backdrop of limestone cliffs, makes a striking impression, and I like that they offer culinary classes, too. It's a bit removed from Ao Nang's bustle, which I see as a definite plus for a relaxing stay.”
