Cafe 8.98 is the ultimate brunch venue in Ao Nang, with an interior that is extremely young and stylish and a location that is just a short walk from the beach. Its coffee is crafted by professional baristas and the quality shines through in the drink, which is frequented by expats, digital nomads, travelers, and Thais alike.

Our recent trip to Krabi was nothing short of magical. Nestled in southern Thailand, Krabi offered the perfect mix of nature, adventure, and authentic culture. The highlight of the trip was definitely the 7-island hopping tour, where we got to explore some of the most breathtaking beaches and limestone cliffs I’ve ever seen. From snorkeling in crystal-clear waters to watching the sunset from a quiet beach, every stop was unforgettable. Chicken Island, Poda Island, and Tup Island were among our favorites—each with its own charm and postcard-worthy views. The tour even ended with night snorkeling to see bioluminescent plankton, which felt like swimming in a galaxy. ✨ Apart from the islands, we indulged in so much delicious Thai food—spicy, flavorful, and affordable. Every street corner had something new to try. We also explored the Krabi Night Market, a lively spot filled with local snacks, handmade crafts, and live music. It’s the perfect place to soak up local vibes and bring home a few souvenirs. Another must-visit is the Emerald Pool and Blue Pool, hidden deep in the lush jungle. The short trek there was peaceful and shaded by tall trees. Once we arrived, the turquoise water was unbelievably clear and refreshing—like nature’s own infinity pool. We also stopped by the Hot Springs Waterfall nearby, a soothing natural spa experience. Krabi is such a well-rounded destination for couples, friends, or solo travelers. It’s easy to explore, not overly touristy, and has a laid-back charm that makes you want to stay longer. Whether you're kayaking through mangroves, climbing up to the Tiger Cave Temple, or just sipping coconut juice by the beach, Krabi truly has something for everyone. Can’t wait to be back! 🌺🇹🇭

I spent a lot of time in Krabi and was mostly working remotely. I split my time between this cafe and the coffee club. I found this cafe to have some very good healthy options on the menu. Both the breakfast menu and lunch menu were good. I liked that the breakfast menu offers generous portion sizes. You have to try homemade yogurt bowl. Yogurt is so smooth and you can tell it doesn’t have thickeners or sweetener added. Just homemade creamy yogurt. Our fvorite breakfast drinks were latte with almond milk and matcha latte with coconut milk. Apple tart is to die for. And Flfor lunch we were so impressed with the build your own salad/bowl. Definitely a win win if your health conscious and looking for a high protein + veggie meal. The wifi was stable, the place was popular but never over crowded. This worked out very well for me. #thailandtrip #cherryblossom2024 #beachlife
