Lovely location to relax and enjoy the views, nicely furnished rooms and beautiful warm pools. After a couple of weeks sightseeing this was the perfect place to chill out.
There was limited choice of food. Bar and restaurant had the same menu. There are limited places to eat nearby you would have expected the hotel to have a good choice of food. What they had was good so a shame really.

Beautiful property.
Amazing views and room was great.
Spa was very nice as well.
Location isn’t great as it is 20+ minutes away from the center.
They do offer a shuttle but it wasn’t any help because it’s only for 10 people and just 4 times per day. So it was always fully booked by I guess people that asked for it says in advance. Wasn’t really an issue though, we used grab which wasn’t expensive.
You can’t really swim in the sea either, not something about the hotel, it’s just not a great beach.
And the pool was always warm which kind of sucks when you’ve been in the sun and want to cool down but the water isn’t cold.

Very comfortable, very clean and staff are very friendly and helpful. Rooms are spacious and looked exactly like the pictures and bed was very comfortable.
Nothing to dislike about this property. To note the hotel is a bit further away from Ao Nang (about 13 minutes by scooter) which is nice and quiet but worth being aware of. We enjoyed the scooter ride to and from the town!

Excellent hotel. Everything is excellent starting from the entrance at the gate with the guard smiling and greeting you when you leave. Through the luxurious and spacious lobby with the always smiling and welcoming staff. The rooms are large, spacious and cleaned twice a day. The two pools are large, very clean, the bar on the pool is great, a seating area with strong currents massage your whole body is exhilarating, the water is very pleasant. Breakfast is great, great variety of food and drink. A selection of sausages, salads and cut vegetables and fruits, a selection of cheeses, yogurt cold and hot drinks, eggs in a wide variety of preparations, breads and desserts. Everything is delicious, fresh and clean. The atmosphere in the dining room is very pleasant, you can sit inside or outside. We had dinner several times at the hotel, the food is delicious, clean, in a variety of world cuisines. The staff is excellent, attentive, helpful, always right to explain and direct. At the hotel, a travel agent sits next to the receptionists, we did two very good trips with her at a very good price. Everything that was promised in the trip was fulfilled. The hotel has a round-trip shuttle to Ao Nang beach several times a day, you must reserve a spot on the shuttle up to an hour before the trip. There is parking for cars. The hotel has marine activities every day as well as sports activities, all in a variety of activities that are listed and change every day on a board. The hotel has a spa, but its prices are very expensive compared to Krabi city. In conclusion, a super recommended hotel, located in a great location with a private beach and not very far from the city. Recommended, highly recommended.

The location
The hotel uses a used slippers which’s environmentally not healthy. I didn’t used the provided ones and hotel attempt that I have taken it while checking out which is not a professional act. Also most of the staff don’t understand English which made it difficult to communicate

Nice hotel with lovely pools and exceptional spa with great therapists (highly recommend to visit).
Stands a bit on a side from main area, it’s a 10 min taxi drive, that would be totally fine, but some days it was a real hustle to get one.

Staff were outstanding, room and facilities were amazing. Would not hesitate to recommend.
Big thank you to all the staff.
There was nothing we did not really like, only thing I would say is that there are no restaurants in walking distance. Apart from that it was fantastic.

Nice friendly staff.
Our room smelled of mold and only got worse as the AC kicked on, to the point of getting a respiratory infection. The beach is tiny and no chairs on the beach. Far away from everything. Beds were the mimar uncomfortable in my 3 months in Thailand. Don’t use their transport, they charge 700 Baht more than a grab taxi.
8.0
surroundings are nice.
outdoor upkeep is good.
nice pool
spacious room
not a 5 star hotel level .
Bed is awful- mattress way too hard, very cheep sheets, pillow and blanket also felt cheep and bad quality.
room cleaning during your stay is minimal.
Food is not good at all.
my husband couldn't eat it at all, and he pretty
much eats everything.
far from the center, and shuttles only run 3 times a day at weird hours.
first one is at 11:30 am!
so if you want to start your day early it's impossible to count on it.

rooms are fantastic. Separate pool for adults & kids which is a great idea!

We really enjoyed our stay at the ShellSea. The room was lovely, lots of space and everything we needed (like an iron). All the staff were extremely helpful, polite and friendly.
The only things that could be approved is cleaning the pool areas. I would find old cigarettes or trash from the day before.

Location, pool and room sizes
Food was the same in all 3 restaurants and there was only 1 choice of red, white and sparking wine despite the claims in their brochure of a range of top wines. Not even a champagne! Food was hit and miss, especially for dinner

Beautiful location and facilities were lovely. Having the quiet private beach right next to the hotel was a bonus. All staff were very helpful. The room was very spacious and the balcony overlooking the sea and pool area was delightful.
Although there is a large open sided restaurant in the main hotel area, it was extremely hot in this area and a bit sterile in the evening. There is a lovely poolside bar with restaurant facilities with a number of tables and chairs surrounding it. It overlooks the sea and for us, we would have much preferred to be able to eat at this location in the evening taking advantage of the views over the sea. Unfortunately it shuts in the early evening so this was not possible. So it is not that we didn't like the main restaurant but rather we thought that not having the poolside restaurant open in the evening as missing a trick.

the restaurant and bar closed very early. the shuttle to town also ended very early.

I was unfortunate to have a fall which resulted in broken ribs just before arriving at this hotel. The hotel staff and management were extremely helpful and did everything they could to make my stay as comfortable as possible (under the circumstances). This included bringing all our meals to our room and arranging hospital transportation, I could not fault them in any way
I couldn't see any beach restaurants within walking distance so if you don't want to eat at the hotel it as a 10 or 15 minute taxi ride into Ao Nang. There is a shuttle service provided by the hotel 3 or 4 times a day but if need to get your own taxi it typically costs 200 Baht each way

At the day the resort is beautiful, pool is really nice and the room is good.
Wifi didnt work at our room for 2 days, yet no one helped us fixed the issue (they kept told us they will send someone to check it).
Most of the time there was no answer from the reception when we called it.
At night around 7 pm almost no lighting outside the room (pool with no light, balcony with no light).
Really expensive bar and tasteless.
7.0
clean and nice beach (however there were no sunchairs)
not personal, staff is not feeling self-confident, breakfast buffet ok but coffee really bad, strangely no one was having dinner at the hotel, we were the only dinner guests which felt a bit weird
10.0
Property is beautiful and quiet. Just how we wanted. It has a picturesque setting with a private beach next to mangroves. The spa and food options are very good. The staff is very helpful and prompt with attending to guests. Thank you for taking care of us!
The peace and quiet came at the cost of accessing the “touristy” parts of Krabi - specifically the Ao Nang beach area. Cabs are difficult to get to and fro and you will rely on the hotel to provide you transport. So please be mindful of this.

amazing hotel , luxury rooms , pool fantastic, and the view is relaxing
not all reception speak English, I order coconut and came to me room temperature not cold , I ordered food all is so basic except the burger was super yummy

7.0
The staff were lovely and rooms spacious and clean. Unfortunately it was not their busiest time of year so it was lacking in atmosphere.
The resort was quite a distance from the main town and didn't offer enough flexibilty with transfers. So spent quite a bit on taxis/tuk tuks.
