Andaman Sunset Resort: Pictures, Reviews and Rates

From its relatively modest entrance on the beach road, Andaman Sunset Resort (or Wanna's Place as it used to be known) opens out back into a vast, green tropical garden with many winding paths leading to the mainly bungalow accommodation.

Wanna and her Swiss husband, Stephan, have been running this place for more than 15 years and it shows. The staff are capable and friendly and the service smooth and efficient. The place has a welcoming family feel and children are well-catered for with a special pool area and menu in the resort's recently refurbished beachfront restaurant.

Rooms are spacious and clean and have all recently (summer 2006) undergone a revamp, with new paint, furnishings and matresses. The pictures in our gallery were taken in November 2006 and show the new-look rooms.

Andaman Sunset also enjoys a near perfect location. It is one of only a handful of hotels situated directly on the beach front, allowing you access to all the shops and restaurants as soon as you step out the front door. Please note: no accommodation in Ao Nang, no matter what the brochure says, is directly on the sand as there is a road that runs the length of the beach.

Rooms
There are 23 individual bungalows set all over the tropical garden. Each is comprised of a bedroom and bathroom with shower and an outside verandah.

There are also two buildings within the resort, each with one floor. The first is located right at the front and houses 4 deluxe seaview rooms (all with balcony, double beds, bathtub and bathrobes!) and two standard rooms; the other is in the garden and contains 2 deluxe, 2 deluxe seaview and four standard rooms (with balcony/ verandah, double beds, shower only).

Rooms near the front of the resort have the advantage of being closer to the 'action'; however they can be slightly noisy, particularly in high season. Rooms further back require a short walk, but are more peaceful.

Facilities All accommodation has air-con, hot water, satellite TV, fridge, IDD telephone, safety deposit box and can be supplied with an extra bed for 300B per night. There is a swimming pool and an excellent Thai - Swiss restaurant open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Other services include laundry, motorbike rental and tour counter, internet facilities and business centre. Airport transfers from Krabi and Phuket also available.
