Accommodation and facilities:
Location very nice, as far as for how much we paid everything was about as you would expect. However the lack of safety was confunding, the deck around the pool had collapsed, and there were exposed nails and holes everywhere, however it was only flimsily taped off, it was an accident waiting to happen, we had to keep a really close eye on our kids around the pool. Also had to ask twice just for a bar of soap, and also for enough bedding and towels for the 4 of us, even after we outlined exactly how many guests, and their ages, would be staying in the room when we booked. Check in and out was unecesarily slow. Pretty ordinary stuff really.

Hi, we stayed at Railey for almost 12 nights in total. Some of them here are Princess resort. Here is a review of Sand Sea followed by a general description of Railey/Ao Nang. Princess resort We booked sand sea resort since our other accommodation was full. The bungalows are quiet and clean. The services personal swift and professional. The pool was nice and deep. The worse thing with Princess is the restaurant. It is a general problem on many of the resorts at Railay. Don t be fooled to think this is the Thai way of service. It is not. Believe me. It is just a bad habit that the Railay resort restaurants have. So if you want service and food within the hour of your arrival take a walk to a restaurant instead of staying in your resort. There are some that are ok but I would recommend the restaurant that lies in the same building as the Last Bar(It is named the Last Bar) at Railey East. Very good Indian food, but don t worry they have great Thai and fresh seafood as well. Railey now and before: I have been to the Ao Nang area three times. Now, 2003 and 2004. And for those of you that have been here before I just want to tell you.... It is way, way, way more exploited(and expensive) now. Mainly resorts and the backpackers have almost(only almost) left. There are also much more people here and the beaches crowded in high season. If I come back it would be for the wonderful climbing. Even though Phra Nang beach (Hope I got the spelling right) is beautiful there are other beaches in the archipelago that are less crowded and almost as nice. Beaches Other than Phra Nang the beaches are pretty dull. They are full with loud longtail boats and the water is “dirty”. Better at the islands. Don t stay at Railay and Ao Nang believing that those beaches are nice. There are way better ones. Prices Ao Nang and Railay is very expensive for being Thailand.... If you can do your shopping anyplace else , do it. That includes everything from suits to T-shirts.

Accommodation and facilities:
The first room we stayed (3010) was in a bad shape. The carpet has not seen a vacuum cleaner in the last decade. In fact who decided to place a carpet in the hotel rooms? We didn t allow our 4-year old child to play on the room s floor because the carpet was disgusting. The bathroom was far more a construction site than it was a functional room at all. The shower was either boiling or freezing but definetly not just warm / tepid which made by the way our child cry. The ceiling had water damage spots and there was mould everywhere. The TV table edge (upper area) was ripped out and you could see the nails which where reachable by our child. The used ash-tray has never been emptied. But the worst was that in the swimming-pool all underwater power cables from the missing underwater lights hang down with the open cable heads. This is not only grossly negligent but also the most untrustworthy thing I saw in my whole life. Image some stuff member switch on the power for the swimming pool lights by accident and there are children playing / swimming. I also advised the two cannabis smoking pool guys to remove a rusty nail(!) in the swimming pool. The good thing was that the lovely ladies from the Front Office made us an upgrade to a two bed (family) room (2006) without any difficulties. This hotel has surely seen better days in the past and it needs a rebrush very soon.

Everything was great! Thanks!

Accommodation and facilities:
Really lovely hotel with great service and friendly staff. Swimming pool was great and good restaurant. Would definitely recommend. Railay is a lovely and small place with good amenities although as a warning we got a boat from Ao Nang and was not expecting to get off on the beach and walk to other side with cases. It would be worth calling ahead and getting hotel to meet you.

Reservation service:
Very easy and clear

Rummet var något slitet inte superfräscht med heltäckningsmatta och en liten blodfläck på ett påslakan. Poolområdet var inte heller i toppskick, lösa kablar i poolen, ganska få solstolar. Fick även tillgång till poolområdet på Bay View, stort plus i kanten för det! Hotellet funkade dock bra för oss men kanske inte för den som söker lyx.

Reservation service:
Good!

Accommodation and facilities:
The bed is quite comfortable, the sheets are new, but only problem is the pillows, they are just too high~~!!and after changing another two pillows,they re still higher than normal pillows.... location is nearby east beach, of course its not as good as Sand Sea resort, but everthing in east beach is cheaper, so....
