I have been to Krabi at around that time of year. We were travelling around the country a bit and we came to Krabi from Khao Sok National Park where we stayed in some treehouses (Arts Jungle House - highly recommended!)

We stayed in a pretty nondescript and very cheap guesthouse in Krabi, so I haven't got any reccommendations for Krabi town itself, except that its well worth visiting the Tiger Cave Temple (Wat Tham Seua) nearby. In the wet season it can be completely deserted and it will be just you, the monks and the giant trees in the jungle (don't approach the temple dogs though - I got bitten by one...)

To stay, take a boat from Krabi to the Raileh (or Railai - they spell it in about 5 different ways) peninsula nearby. This is a popular place to stay as it is only accessible by boat and has a secluded atmosphere. It also has one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen (Ao Phra Nang, where the sea princess' cave is, full of carved phalluses).

There are lots of bungalow operations here, one or two of them upmarket, with pools etc, some more basic, and some very funky hippy style places. Obviously if you are planning your wedding anniversary you will want everything booked in advance and so you will tend to get one of the more expensive places. In the rainy season though you can always just turn up and find a place without any problems. We found everything pretty cheap - bungalows and food - just a few pounds for a meal. There's lots to do in Rayley - watch monkeys and gibbons in the jungle, watersports, a cave, rock climbing, just chilling out. I envy you - it's so beautiful!

One slight word of warning: The rainy season can be really really wet in Thailand, and we spent several days going around soaked to the bone, which can put a bit of a dampener on your spirits - you wash things and they never dry, and the contents of your suitcase seem to absorb the dampness... Also if it is raining torrentially for 3 days there is less to do and you may start getting cabin fever. This may be one advantage of staying in a more upmarket place with an indoor bit (the place I stayed in - Viewpoint bungalows - was OK and had a laundry service, etc - but by now it's probably changed, this was several years ago, before the tsunami, etc, which temporarily ruined the area).
To sum up, I would avoid really basic places in the rainy season - we stayed in one on Phi-Phi and it was really a bit depressing, being wet all the time...
Enjoy yourselves!

I would suggest Somkiet Buri Resort.

I ever been there one time, real nice and friendly, even just a maid. They treat us very nice.

Before we left, I said to the resort representative that, i will come back again in the near future, and you know what, I plan to go there around Septenber also, with husband and 4 years daughter.

If nothing change, we may see each other around that schedule. Can we ? ^_^

There are lodging on Railay sea coast, yet they at the instant are no longer low-priced. the region is appealing, crowded interior the sunlight hours, quiet at evening. while bored of the sea coast, try mountain mountaineering.
