Ao Nang to Phuket Destination Reviews

Overbooked speed boat letting me my wife and one kid staying over an hour without a seat and this on a high speed open sea. Total unsafe. The staff was expecting us to drag our suitcases in the sand while 5 men’s crew was laughing and watching us without any help offered. On the end the lady from the check in office come to help us.

Slightly delayed but overall efficient with good communication. Comfortable and fast journey in speedboat - much better than the ferry!

I liked the service, but for me that I have 1.98 meters, it’s a small space between chairs, but I managed the discomfort.

Horrible experience, there was no mini van or mini bus . It was a shared tuktuk transfer to the bus stop and then a bus takes you to phuket. The bus stopped multiple times and I reached after 4.5 hours. I was picked up at 9 and dropped at 1:40pm
