Other comments about the hotel: 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. [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

Other comments about the hotel: 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 resortWe 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.BeachesOther 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.PricesAo 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.

Other comments about the hotel: 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.

Other comments about the hotel: 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.

Other comments about the hotel: wow - Fantastic hotel, in a great location...only bad thing is the floor of the pool area is rotten and a big hazard...however with the choice of 3 other pools including the west beqach side.. who cares..mini bar items same price as minimart.. room service good.. room made up every day, great shower hot and powerful...TV HBO ESPN MOVIES, BBC, CNN, Free DVD rental from railay Bay resort (sister hotel) ps. go to the Last Bar on the East Beach, tastiest and best value food and drink on the island, great singer and free fireshow...and make sure you walk round to Phrang Na beach...its worth the five minute walk.. heaven on earth..

Other comments about the hotel: 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. [ThailandHotels-24.com integr.ERR:escaping]

How was the booking process handled?: ThailandHotels-24.com was simple to use and offered best rates for this hotel. Will use again.
Other comments about the hotel: This hotel has potential - location is good for Phranang Beach and bars on Railay. The hotel itself is run down - room was old and needed renovated. Resort was not taken care of at all. Pool was dirty and grounds of hotel were not as tidy as should have been. Looked like other rooms were being decorated/updated during low session. This could be a great hotel is they took care of it. Reception staff - Easy was unfriendly at first and was not very welcoming. Other staff were ok. Better places to stay like Tropical Resort near by or Garden View.

Other comments about the hotel: Wir hatten 6 Tage gebucht und nachdem wir aus dem Phuttawan Resort ausziehen konnten, waren wir angenehm überrascht. Der Zimmerservice funktionierte gut, das Frühstücksbuffet wäre auf die Dauer eintönig geworden, aber man gab sich sehr viel Mühe, die Gäste freundlich zu versorgen. Railay insgesamt kann man nicht empfehlen und baden ist bei Ebbe einfach nicht möglich. Wer dann im Hotel bleibt und nichts gegen heraushängende Kabel im Swimmingpool hat, kann einen sauberen Pool mit Handtuchservice erleben. Da wir bei 6 Tagen Buchung einen Durchschnittspreis von 1170 THB hatten, stimmt das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis; wir würden den Hochsaisonpreis nicht bezahlen wollen.

How was the booking process handled?:
Other comments about the hotel: A cozy hotel located almost midway between the eastern and western beaches of the Railay Beach. Nice rooms and a nice pool right outside. The best part of Railay is that it is close to everything, and no traffic.What we could possibly complain about is the breakfast buffet would be, but was not there when there were few guests.Otherwise we are very pleased and will definitely return.
