Krabi is a dream destination for couples worldwide. There are plenty of activities for couples to enjoy and create lasting memories in Krabi.
Krabi Province in Thailand has some of the top islands for couples to stay. As one of Thailand’s best honeymoon spots, we’ve focused on the Krabi area and nearby places where couples can have a great romantic vacation.
After exploring Krabi firsthand, I’ve picked the best places for couples to experience the perfect romantic escape.
Best 4 Areas to Stay in Krabi for Honeymoon:
Here we are listing out the areas where you can have pleasurable stay in Krabi for your honeymoon or a romantic getaway:
1. Railay Beach:
Railay beach is best as per my opinion for young couple vacation. It is ideal spot for couples seeking a peaceful and romantic atmosphere.
The daytime may be quite tourisitic but the evening is very calm and serene. Couples can enjoy night swimming, meditation and yoga.
Railay beach is very relaxing and peaceful place, there are no roads so you can walk, hike, swim or enjoy a long boat wherever you go.
If you and your partner like activities, then you can enjoy rock climbing at East Railay, kayaking and paddle boarding.
Couples can spend time leisurely at the Railay beach, getting massage and witnessing awesome sunset at West Railay beach.
My highlights include caving, rock-climbing, and hiking – especially to the Princess Lagoon and strolling at Phra Nang Cave Beach.
Some people also suggest staying at Ao Nang and doing a day trip by boat to Railay. However, I would recommend staying at Railay for at least 2 to 3 days.
However, there are fewer dining and accommodation options.
You can consider taking a Day Trip to Phi-Phi Island from Railay Beach.
🛌 Best Resorts to Stay:
- Rayavadee Resort: The Luxurious resort gas stunning views and private pavilions. It has a direct access to Railay Beach.
- Railay Bay Resort & Spa: This beachfront resort has spacious rooms and easy access to both Railay West and East.
- Sand Sea Resort: Mid-range option with beachfront access, great for value-conscious travelers, and close to local amenities.
2. Tubkaek Beach:
Tubkaek Beach is another peaceful and relaxing spot for couples for your Krabi Honeymoon. It is great for swimming and spending your beach days in leisure. It’s a beautiful, quiet beach with only a few resorts that offer private sections for their guests.
Tubkaek is free from the noise of longtail boats and jet skis.It’s just a 30-minute ride from Krabi Town, and you can easily rent a scooter to get there.
The beach is full of tiny crabs that move across the wet sand but disappear as you walk towards them. It’s also never too crowded. You’ll find a few restaurants and bars, and a quick 20-minute trip by boat will take you to Hong Island. The small number of boats and the lack of sellers make it even more relaxing.
If you stay in a premier pool villa, you’ll have amazing views of the Andaman Sea and nearby islands.
The beach has plenty of space for sunbathing in privacy. Our resort had its own private section, so we practically had it all to ourselves.
We took a day trip by longtail boat to nearby islands. A big highlight was our couple’s massage—so relaxing! We also had a romantic dinner one night that felt like a mini wedding celebration.
There are a couple of nice hikes near the Tubkaek beach area which you can enjoy if you are adventure loving couple.
I recommend staying at a resort that offers all-inclusive packages for couples. You can easily find plenty of options by doing some research online.
🛌 Recommended Accommodation:
- Anyavee Tubkaek Beach Resort
- Tup Kaek Sunset Beach Resort
3. Koh Lanta:
Koh Lanta is great during the dry season that is from November to April. Prefer staying at Khlong Nin Beach hotels as the area is very calm and secluded.
Rent a scooter to explore some hidden beaches around the island which are only known to locals. Also visit the local markets for handicrafts and extraordinary Thai dishes.
For a fun activity, take a Time For Lime cooking class to learn some Thai culinary skills.
Do a day trip to Bamboo Bay & Phra Ae Beach also known as the Long Beach located at the southern tip of the island. Couples who want to escape the crowds and enjoy a peaceful beach day, can explore these two beaches.
Also visit the Koh Lanta Old Town on the east coast to explore traditional wooden houses and local shops.
Explore lush forests in the Mu Koh Lanta National Park and discover wildlife. Also, visit the stunning Khlong Chak Waterfall for a refreshing hike.
Koh Lanta has some great bars for partying, where couples can enjoy the lively. Why Not Bar, Freedom Bar, and Funky Monkey are one of the best pubs in Koh Lanta.
From Koh Lanta, explore nearby islands by renting a long-tail boat. You can take day trips to places like Koh Rok, Koh Ngai, and Koh Muk for snorkelling. If you are interested in diving, Hin Daeng and Hin Muang are the best diving sites in Koh Lanta. Do not forget to capture stunning photos for your Instagram!
🛌 Recommended Accommodation:

- Nakara Long Beach Resort
- Coco Cape Lanta Resort
4. Klong Muang Beach:
Klong Muang is one of the perfect couple destination in Krabi. It is just a 20-minute ride from Ao Nang.
This beach has a peaceful vibe. You’ll spot couples and families looking for a quiet place with plenty of space to relax. We barely saw more than 6 people during our visits, so it felt like we had the whole beach to ourselves!
There are no sunbeds or umbrellas on the beach, but plenty of trees provide natural shade.
The beach is long and clean. It is great for a stroll with your partner along the shoreline in the evening. The water is clear, though there are a few rocky areas, so watch your step when swimming. Water is nice during high tide.
There are some beachside cafes that serves tasty food at good prices, and some other nice restaurants nearby. You get good eats without the chaos in Klong Muang. The restaurants can also arrange beachside romantic dinner for you.
We stayed at a villa for our honeymoon. It was the perfect spot to watch the sunset! The beach was just a few steps away from our doorstep.
This beach might not have the deep waters for snorkelling. For day trips, you can hire long-tail boats at cheaper price near the beach. The party scene isn’t very active on this beach.
🛌 Recommended Accommodation:
- Bliss Resort Krabi
- Isle Beach Resort
- Klong Muang Sunset Hotel

The resort features multiple pools and bars. The rooms offers breathtaking views of the beach and surrounding cliffs. The peaceful, jungle-themed ambiance of the resort ensures a tranquil stay, and they do not play loud music around the pools. The resort also arranges romantic dinner setups right on the beach.
I highly recommend not missing the romantic couples’ spa available at the hotel.

Centara Grand Beach Resort is a beautiful property located near Ao Nang, Krabi. The resort offers direct access to the beach and is spread over a vast area. They have a great pool, and the ambiance is delightful, with rooms nestled amidst greenery. Their Deluxe Pool Access King room is particularly impressive.
The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. They also have beach volleyball and a slide in the pool.
This hotel is perfectly located for easy beach access, and the pathway at night is especially lovely for an evening walk.
Sofitel Krabi Phokeethra Golf & Spa Resort:
The location of the Sofitel Krabi Phokeethra resort is the plus. The resort has a large pool with a sunken bar, and the pool access rooms are spacious.
