We had a fan cottage at the very end of the resort. I would suggest air conditioing as it was very hot, but we managed. The cabin was one of the older ones but just fine, spacious and clean with a little balcony. The pool was great and the full breakfast kept us going till dinner. Lots of kids here,... More

Raileh is beautiful and so is this resort.We booked std fan room at 1900bhat at high season.We were quite skeptical since it is the cheapest room in a budget hotel on this posh West Raileh.But on reaching this resort we were bowled by the absolute stunning location of this resort.We got a room in well maintained beautiful garden setting.It is...

My two adult daughters and I stayed in one of the small bungalows here in January, 2012 and we were pleasantly surprised by our terrific room (especially the very modern bathroom!) after reading that Sand Sea Resort can feel a bit dated. It's a superb location ... right between the more expensive resorts, so it's the same exact spot ...... More

Firstly, the location - PERFECT. Absolutely stunning location. We caught the ferry from Phi Phi and got dropped off literally at the front door (long tail boats come out to meet you, help with luggage etc) and when we got to the beach we had hotel porters waiting for us with trolleys etc which was great. Check in smooth, quick... More

Myself and my partner stayed here last August for 4 nights. We didn't have any reservations so shopped around when we got there. We found the staff nice, not great but ok for Thai customer service! The rooms were dated a bit but were ideal for our stay. The food was nice in the restaurant but the hotel had no... More

Both my husband and I stayed at this hotel in December for one night. We had stayed in Ao Nang for 4 nights and since there wasn't any rooms available on the 5th we decided to stay in Railay as we heard that it's so beautiful . The hotel is central in Railay and is a cottage style. The hotel... More

The plus point of this hotel is its location on the good side of Railay. If you stay here, you're just 20-100 metres or so from one of the most scenic beaches in all of Thailand. It's a proper resort with a nice green tropical setting, a small pool and a fairly decent (but not luxury) breakfast. We had dinner... More

Served burnt fish and two hours later, replaced with a rotten fish. Room next to sceptic system with neighboring restaurant exhaust system blowing directly on the bungalow. As we complained, 3 others had similar complaints. The manager told us to check out if we were not satisfied. We had prepaid for 7 nights and one day prior to Xmas, left... More

The location on Railay Beach West is great, and it's only a short walk away from supreme beach Phra Nang and its famous cave. Go there in the morning, or later in the afternoon, to avoid the tour boat crowds that sometimes invade this fine beach. The house beach is OK, too, with a wide and hard beach and a... More
