May 8, 2023 Marlin Saiz

The southern Thailand town of Krabi serves as base camp for exploring the province of the same name, a lush region of jungles, limestone cliffs and idyllic isles floating just offshore in the Andaman Sea. Buddhist shrines still used by local monks are tucked into the chambers of the town's top attraction, Tiger Cave. The riverside pier links travelers with ferries and longboats to the best scuba diving, rock climbing and white sand beaches on the coast.

Fantastic Resort with terrible access !!

Reviewed By ruteshj

We were a family of 7 and stayed for 4 nights in 2 x Beach front 2 bedroom villas with a private pool. I would say this is the best property in Krabi but with a terrible access from mainland (more on this later & this is why only 3 vs 5 stars). The Villas were huge, very well furnished & maintained, fantastic views and properly taken care of by housekeeping on daily basis. The resort is beautiful with its landscaped gardens, multiple pools, a very clean private beach, beachfront dining etc. Everything is picturesque !! Some of the rooms up the hill can be quite a walk but they have buggies. I think we made the right decision to pay for beachfront villas to be on the beach. May is not peak season and Thailand is just seeing more tourists coming in. So only 1 restaurant was open with limited options, but food was quite good. The Japanese restaurant was open on Saturday and we loved the Teppanyaki, excellent chef !! If this resort was connected to Krabi by a road, I would have given 5 stars !! but the only way in is via boat or the monkey trail !!! The hotel speedboat service needs to be improved to accommodate guests, do additional runs. They seem to have 2 boats but use only 1 with hourly / 2 hr interval service to Ao Nang (nopartthara pier). Could see many angry guests who could not get a spot on the boat. Reserve well in advance but that takes away the fun of deciding something spontaneously. Or take a 1000 THB long tail each way. Also only the brave hearted would venture out in the sea after darkness. So no dinner options to go to , unless you use the monkey trail !! The jetty is made of rubber / plastic floats connected together and many of the handrails are missing. There were huge waves and the jetty bounces around dangerously. It was right in front of our villa and every time the boat came there were screams heard from terrified people !!! The hotel is waiting for an accident to happen !! They don't even bother to repair the broken center handrails !! On our way back the weather was bad and boat service was cancelled. The hotel bell boy escorted us through the monkey trail to Ao Nang, He was very courteous but the monkey trail is quite steep with few very bad steps. Its surely unsafe for the elderly, small kids and you need the right clothing (trekking). Quite strenuous option to do to & fro from Ao Nang !! If you are game for a jetty which is like a walking roller coaster without handrails or fit enough to do the monkey trail every time you want to go to Ao Nang or just want to stay a few days disconnected from the world, then this is the perfect resort. Otherwise avoid.... Would only visit again or recommend if I can see a proper concrete / wooden firm jetty installed by the hotel. I am sure they miss many repeat customers (surely us) just because of the access. Its a shame that such a beautiful resort has such terrible access....

Absolutely Useless Bellhops

Reviewed By Emptynest_Ken

Both when we arrived, and when we left, the bellhops left us to haul our own luggage down the 1,000 foot pier. This is even worse than it sounds because the pier is made of rough shaped plastic cubes, so luggage won't roll over it. When we arrived, they knew we were coming, but weren't there. We waited in the hot sun, and eventually just did the slog by ourselves. When we left, they just dropped us off at the head of pier and quickly darted away. There was then considerable confusion and arguing among the boat captains as to who was even supposed to take us. Thanks for the help.

Views were amazing, especially from level 8. The location was super central right amongst shops and restaurants and an 8 minute walk to the beach. The rooms was clean and comfortable and the restaurant offered a nice breakfast. The infinity pool has a wonderful view of the sea and the rooftop bar is a great place to enjoy a drink an watch the sunset.

You’ll find us in a tranquil ocean-facing setting at the northern end of Tubkaek Beach, so you know we’ve got the sun, sand and surf covered. For added sparkle to your stay, we’re just 40 minutes from Krabi Town, teeming with restaurants, markets and nightlife. Be sure to stop by the nearby vibrant street-side stalls to pick up some colourful gifts for your friends and loved ones back home. For a change in scenery, try friendly Ao Nang Beach, Krabi’s prime resort, which combines the relaxed atmosphere of a Thai town with the beauty of a beach resort. Be sure to set aside a whole day for swimming, kayaking, snorkelling, scuba diving or fishing at Koh Hong Islands, just 30 minutes away by long-tail boat. This idyllic group of tiny islands offers soft white-sand beaches, coral reefs and a beautiful lagoon. Picture perfect.

We came here for our honeymoon and what can I say? It is the best hotels thus far. The staffs were very warm and accommodative. They were very helpful too. They helped us decorate our room for honeymoon and gave us cake too! Moreover, whenever we are heading out, they will make sure the pick up is arriving by contacting the driver directly for us. Superb! We miss the hotel so much! Especially the beach view, the restaurant and the staffs! Highly recommended!

Zero trust to this resort

Reviewed By 590bub

Horrible check-in experience! They had no idea that we were going to check in at the resort on the check-in day, their system did not log my booking, I almost had a heart attack when they told me that they were not expecting us for the stay. I booked for the premier pool villa (a private standard long pool at a 130 sq room) but due to the check-in incident that happened, they had no idea that we were going to be there on that day, instead, they fooled us and allocated us to a 100 sq room with a bathtub size pool( yes, I am talking about the pool and not the bathtub that they also provide). I was extremely shocked when I entered the room, I would not pay for the room if I knew that the pool that they provided us was only the size of a bathtub. I would not have chosen to stay at this resort if I knew that their information about the room is inaccurate. It's scary to know how they run their business in such an inauthentic way. The photos that they put on their official website show that the pool is a standard size, they hid the fact that there are rooms with a bathtub size pool. They paid a lot of attention and made a lot of effort to make sure online bloggers had their best experience ever (jajatanti checked in the same day as us) instead of making things right for us who paid for the room. It was never mentioned anywhere, including on their websites and Instagram to say that they have a room with a much smaller pool. Felt like we'd been scammed during the stay, given that they promoted something that they can not offer to their customers.

Small hotel on the quiet east side of Railay. Spacious villas, nice amenities and excellent staff.

Reviewed By Rachael W

Lovely small resort in East Railay Beach. Very nice welcome to the island. Enjoyed a pool Villa which was very spacious and well appointed. Breakfast was plenty full with lots of options. The staff at the hotel was very kind and helpful. Hotel pool and pool bar great. Enjoyed my stay. Keep in mind this hotel is located on the east side of the island, fronted by mangroves with an obstructed view to the water. It is very close to the pier which makes it very convenient. It's also a quieter and less expensive side of the island. It really depends on what you're looking for. If I ever return to Railay I may opt for the west side due to proximity of swimmable beaches and views there. This is a nice hotel and the value excellent.
