Destination Unkster - A Krabi Dilemma

We need a holiday!!!

Pretty stressed out these 2 months, wifey and me. Her business trip to Adelaide has been pushed to early 2006 and I was supposed to tag along. So thought we escape our little island for some sun and sand this Christmas. Somewhere close since I can't take that many days off and we want to be back home in time to cut the turkey and kiss under the mistletoe.

We both like the Sheraton Krabi Beach Resort which is situated in an unspoilt beachfront location on the quiet 1.8 km long Klong Muong Beach. Nestled discreetly in 16 landscaped hectares, all 246 guest rooms, including 30 Zen rooms and six Executive suites, feature refined Thai design influences, giving a unique urban resort feel. Perhaps we'll do a spot of rock-climbing and also take a boat out to nearby Ko Phi Phi.

But the price is quite prohibitive during the yuletide season, a very wallet-chomping 400 Sing dollars per night. Ouch! Hmmm. Anybody got any better ideas or reccomendations? The last thing we want is another Patong Beach in Phuket that's why we're steering clear of Ao Phra Nang which is the most developed beach in Krabi.
