Krabi

What's going on in Krabi this weekend? I could not find a rate below 200 dollars for hotels and resorts that normally do maximum 60 dollars per night?

Don't know where you are looking. AA hotels has many 4 star hotels for under $200, some as low as $77.

Yes Ao Nang. Was looking at Google, Booking, Agoda, Trip, Expedia. Anywhere not far from the beach. The Krabi Hotel goes for around 60 or so and The Panang the same. Even Peace. But now they are over a 100 each and even 200 per night at some sites.
Looking at a 4star and any help would be much appreciated.

Wednesday being a public holiday could have some effect as people could make a long weekend out of it. Other than that, I cannot think of anything either.

Any of the airline sites, AS, AA, UA, etc will give you options for a 4 star starting at $77.

I ran into the same issue trying to book something in Railay for this weekend. It's just busy and everything's sold out or very expensive.

edit: Looking at the usual portals, they all say that around 75% of all listed properties are not available for these dates. so that indeed explains the prices you're seeing.

Got the Sugar Marina Cliff for 340 USD for two nights. Its a bummer as normally Krabi is so affordable. Could be because Wednesday is a holiday too.
