Aow Noi Sea View

Prachuap Khiri Khan


North of town and close to the fishing pier, this secluded three-storey hotel has Ao Noi Beach (good for strolling, not so much for swimming) on its doorstep. It's not what it used to be – the rooms are full of mismatched furniture and there's some behind-schedule maintenance – but for those looking for something peaceful, it's worth considering.
