Great Views

So a tough review with mixed emotions. If you decide to stay on Railay beach choose to stay on Railay West as it is easily accessible. If you stay on the East beach, be prepared to walk to get to this beach. Long tails boats...More

Resort Beach

Railay Beach is an island fully surrounded by hotel resorts. If you like rock climbing then this is a good place for it. The lagoon is pretty but it feels crowded when more people actually go there to swim. The main beach area is probably...More

Amazing beach with special arrival

Amazing beach location with a short long tail boat trip from Ao Nang. Chilled out vibe an opportunity to grab food and drink. Can hire paddle boats to explore the rocks and snorkel from the beach, love this place when visiting Ao Nang

Sweet Escape

It a nice secluded island, not too crowded like the more popular ones. Options for things to do like rock climbing & stand up paddling. Expensive to stay within the island as hotel are bit more expensive than usual

We are in Ao Nang and heading to Railay tomorrow for 3 nights. We are staying on the east side. We have 2 young kids and luggage. I am worried about getting off the boat at the beach as I read we will be in waist deep water. Can we get a boat to the west side ? Any other suggestions?

Perfectly safe! But be advised: the rainy season can bring in monsoons. So your concern should be: is it safe to go there by long-tail boat yes/no. Not sure what point Caryn J is making about stairs, boats and walls. You... More
