Beautiful hotel with great views
We absolutely loved the hotel! Because it’s up a bit the views were incredible but it was also so quick to walk into town and to the beaches. I highly recommend staying here and absolutely suggest using their coordinated transportation if flying into Krabi.

Gorgeous view of water bellow. Excellent breakfast buffet. Staff very pleasant and accomodating. Short walk to main village but it is uphill coming back to the hotel and a bit of work. There is a complimentary shuttle that runs hourly in both directions.

The property was very nice. We were lucky to have a balcony with a view. Some of the rooms did not have a view or a balcony.
Pool was nice.
It is located at the top of the hill so a bit of a climb. It is easy to walk to beach and to restaurants.

Stunning views from the pool and the tuktuk to and from tow was a great benefit for my mom who struggles with mobility. Wish there was somewhere to refill your water bottle instead of always using plastic bottles. Breakfast buffet was by far the best I had in Thailand!

AMAZING, would recommend everyone to stay here. It is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been. The free breakfast is so good, the staff are all so friendly and helpful, the pool is phenomenal. The rooms, walkways, bathrooms are all extremely clean. Very quiet and relaxing. The walk into town takes about 5-10 mins. There is a slight hill that I walked up barefoot with my backpack but there is a free shuttle the resort provides that goes into town and will pick you up from town.

Beautiful resort in Railay
Beautiful resort away from the hustle and bustle of the walking street. The staff were very friendly and always accommodating.
The resort is only an 8 min walk from the walking street and 10 mins to east/west beach and 20 mins to Phra Nang Beach. They also offer scheduled tuktuk services towards the beaches for free.
The cottage room was quaint, clean and comfortable. The pool view is spectacular, seeing the beach and a rock climbing wall. We decided to extend another day because of how beautiful Railay is and how great this resort was.

Beautiful hotel for a great price ! Stay here !
We loved this hotel. Surrounded by the karst mountains & jungle with a view of the ocean, what more could you ask for. The cabins, pool, and free breakfast was great. We got to watch monkeys while eating. The service at the pool bar was really good. The loungers were usually full & the ones on the deck in front of the bar need to be replaced. The shuttle back from the beach was hit & miss but it’s not a long walk. I loved Railay and would definitely stay at this hotel again. Can’t beat the price !

This is a beautiful resort. Our rooms had lovely jungle mountains view. Gardens are gorgeous. Buffet was excellent. Bed was a bit hard but nice clean fresh linen. The pool is incredible with the position and vista from every angle breathtaking. We didn’t enjoy the steepness of the paths and the long walk through dark alleys to get home at night. However the resort did offer to drive us in their tuktuk whenever we wanted. When we arrived at the pier we phoned them and they picked us and our luggage up within minutes

Peaceful and friendly resort
We stayed 2 nights in the entry level room. The room was traditional in design, a good size, great aircon, very comfortable bed and had all the expected amenities, including free water refills each day. The staff were all friendly. We ate in the restaurant one night - good food at a reasonable price, though they struggled to serve the food promptly, which seemed to upset some other diners. Breakfast options were good. Nice pool with great view of the surrounding forest area and huge rock, and it was interesting to watch brave people attempting to climb this. The pool area needs more sun beds though we did get a bed on the lower terrace. Bathrooms could do with an update. The tuktuk was very useful and we used it to get our luggage up and down the hill. The walk down to the shops and beach was ok, past the cave, though the monkeys were best avoided and were happy to take any food off you without asking!

If you want to stay in the area with the best view of the ocean and a quiet people free area- this is it! The pool alone with its happy hour of drinks 100 bth was incredible! The location is perfectly in-between both beaches with the view of the East beach. It was so easy to walk everywhere in the area.The rock mountain next to the resort is stunning, while providing entertainment as people climb it. The service was wonderfully, we were greeted with a welcome drink and offered complimentary ride to our room. The morning breakfast was always delicious and the staff so kind.
I recommend this for any solo, couple, or family. We LOVED our time! My partner and I also went end of October which was perfect weather with not as many tourist crowding the areas.
Well done!
