The Lane Bay Villa is about 30 minutes from the main Krabi beach area, so you would need transportation, which they can help with. There is a very nice restaurant across the street about 2 minutes walk. They have a fried chicken breast with fries if you have children that do not like traditional Thai food. The Villa also has a restaurant which we had breakfast at every morning, we also played pool and drank beers at night at the Villa restaurant. The guy working it was very friendly, when ever we came back for the day someone would be standing there to greet us. The attention we received from the staff was very personal. They seemed to be all very local and possibly family if not good friends. The owner organized an amazing fishing day for my 14 year old son and I. The boat was not perfect by any means, but it was very sea worthy. The guy was a local, the fishing rods were a very tattered and used. I found the day to be perfect, he taught my son to use just a line not a rod and reel, we were catching small fish almost as fast as we could unhook the fish, they were small but it was fun. The boat was a traditional long boat for the area, heavly used but the real deal. While we were out on the water I saw new tour boats racing around with many tourist filling the boats, very commercialized. We saw the real side of this area in the boat we were in, I felt bad for the other tourist, mind that my experience is not for everyone I understand some people want perfection, not reality
