Cool, you get to have the same kind of experience as you would have on the beach, you get to enjoy from a good restaurant and you get to limit your spending, it reminds me of a town in Ghana, Akosombo, it doesn't have access to the beach but rather the largest man made lake in West Africa, staying in the town and spending the day cruising gives you the same sensation as staying on the island and you also get to cut down on cost in terms of boat travel everyday, accomodation and foods. I will be sure to stay in Krabi whenever i come visit😊
