A True Slice of Paradise! I just returned from the most magical stay at Rayavadee in Krabi, and I’m still floating from the experience! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel like royalty. Every single person we encountered went above and beyond, creating such a warm, welcoming, and luxurious atmosphere. A very special thank you to Luna, who truly made our stay unforgettable. Her kindness, attention to detail, and genuine care made us feel so taken care of every step of the way. The Songkran ceremony was such a beautiful and meaningful experience, and the spa treatments were nothing short of heavenly. Even the servers at the restaurants made every meal feel like a celebration. And the property itself—WOW. Nestled between towering limestone cliffs and surrounded by lush jungle and pristine beaches, it honestly felt like we had stepped into a fairytale. Every corner of Rayavadee is designed with elegance and natural beauty in mind. It’s peaceful, private, and absolutely breathtaking. I can’t recommend Rayavadee enough. It’s more than a resort—it’s a full sensory experience that I’ll treasure forever.

We stayed at 5 different properties while in the area including The Surin Phuket. The Rayavadee was certainly the highlight. The jungle meets the beach in the most incredible way. Our bungalow was beautiful, with a comfortable bed and the most luxurious shower. The food was delicious and the spa was amazing. It was definitely a layer back five star experience that didn’t feel stuffy.

Stunning Rayavadee

Our visit at Rayavadee was absolutely delightful! The service was amazing from everyone and we loved our 2 hiking guides. Communication was terrific with transfer help both to and from the resort. The location is so stunning and beyond belief. We wish we could have stayed longer. Fantastic!

Vast resort spanning both sides of the Railay peninsula. Lush tropical garden dotted with dozens (perhaps hundreds) of villas steeped in seemingly never-ending jungle and surrounded by steep limestone cliffs. Three different beaches at opposing ends of the resort. Huge warm infinity pool near Railay side of resort. Excellent breakfast buffet. Wonderful, accommodating staff with good English command at all levels. Elegant speed boat for transfers from and to the Krabi airport. The resort is not cheap, but arguably worth the price because of its stunning location on scenic, slightly hard-to-reach beach, incredible swimming pool and high level of service. The very walkable beach is breathtaking in its beauty in early morning hours before first long-tail boats start arriving with loads of day trippers from “mainland”. Design of villas seems rustic, a bit dated and forest lodge-type, rather than modern age and reflective of the price. Our pavilion villa was clean and functional, but a bit small (on two levels), dark and cluttered with heavy wooden and wicker items. Food prices on premises astronomical, but admittedly not mandatory, as there are many reasonable local dining options within five minutes from the resort. Beaches around the resort are not private - expect crowds. Overall a great place but slightly overpriced

We enjoyed every minute of our 5 day stay in March 2025. Our little villa was perfect, situated nicely between the three beaches that surround the resort. Getting to watch the monkeys as we were walking to the beach was always a treat. The food was really good, and in particular the Grotto restaurant at Phranang Beach had not only great food but the views from there are breathtaking. The pool area is also very nice on the Railay beach side of the resort. There are also several off-resort dining options within easy walking distance. Those were also very good. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the transportation they provide from the airport to the resort was very efficient. You have to pay for it but well worth it. For us there was just nothing to complain about. Railay beach can get a little busy during the day with all of the boats but none of that bothered us. Highly recommended; we will definitely stay there again if we decide to visit the Krabi area again.
