The Emerald is situated next to Ao Nang (Krabi Province), directly on secluded Nopparat-Thara beach. Not as crowded as Phuket or Koh Samui, Ao Nang is well developed with hotels, bungalows and restaurants. The incredible natural beauty and perfect swimming beaches combined with a wide range of day excursions into even more remote areas make the Emerald an excellent place to stay.
