Find hotels in Phra Nang Beach

Truly excellent and memorable not only for its location but for the 'total' experience. Having experienced the popular 'hotspots' and deciding Thailand had reached its 'sell by date' I found this little jewel a mere 10 minutes boat ride from Ao Nang. Well how quickly I changed my mind and rued I had not elected to spend more time based here... Rayavadee is simply superb; is one of the very best hotels I have ever stayed in and justifies its inclusion in the '20 must stays before you die'. You are pampered and experience the 'good old fashioned' service provided by an attentive and dedicated staff with a genuine desire to please, so absent in very many places these days. Facilities are excellent as is their cuisine. Enjoying the sunset by the beach during Happy Hour is encrypted in my mind and will be treasured.... A must for all who can. Footnote: please respect the dress codes as laid down and show good manners to your fellow guests. Sadly too many nasty sights at breakfast and a number of loud Americans and Germans believing all wished to hear their trite conversations jolted one from total heaven. Thankfully it did not last too long .....

during our stay in thailand this was the most amazing hotel where we stayed, the staff was waiting for us on the airport as we agreed, and they took us to the hotel with bus, longtail boat and golfcar, it was very great first impression. Our bungalow was very nice, and isolated so we could have full privacy there, the phra nang beach was amazing and only a few minutes walk from the resort area. I liked the breakfast also, with lots of choice, but when we had lunch/dinner there the food wasnt really impressive and some staff was that nice. If you want to go to tours, there is a small office next to the reception where they have various choices, but please consider additional money for the transfer to the pier. Overall the hotel was very amazing, and great place to relax, I would definitely stay there again

We normally ruff it backpacker style but it was a special occasion so we treated ourself to a week here. I couldn't fault it in anyway, it looked just like the pictures in real life, staff were helpful and friendly, room was amazingly kept. The resort is beautiful in a great location, it has its own pool and wee private beaches but only 10 to 25mins walk to both railay beaches and the stunning phra nang beach. We loved it

I stayed at the Sunrise Tropical hotel for just over 2 weeks and thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Travelling with 2 friends we stayed and a double room with an extra bed. Considering there was 3 people staying in one room, we had loads of room! The amenities were great too. The room offered comfortable beds, spacious bathroom with a large shower and bath. A good sized balcony also offered beautiful views of the limestone cliffs surrounding Railay. The hotel grounds are quite nicely and traditionally landscaped. There is a medium sized pool which I only swam in once only because the beaches on Railay are so beautiful. The staff were very friendly and got such a warm welcome and farewell from them. Any issues that we had were attended to immediately. Our booking also included breakfast which there was a large selection of choices available. The location of the hotel is on the East side of Railay which faces the mangrove beach which is still nice but not swimmable. It is only a short walk to Railay West and Phra Nang beach. I would definitely stay at the Sunrise Tropical hotel on my next visit to Railay beach.

We stayed in a few different similar pricing hotels while in Thailand and Bhu Nga Thani was definitely the best, superb hotel and very attentive and polite staff could easily call it 4,5 star hotel :) I am also very selective and picky about the food (could not take a bite in other 4 star hotels we stayed), but this hotel offers good breakfast with fresh products. Great location toom, short distance to Railay or Phra Nang Beach.

we enjoyed our time in railay. the good -phra nang beach in the morning and evening (sunsets) -west railay beach -nice comfortable rooms we stayed at the pool view 2027. -day tours around phi phi. we especially liked bamboo island. -helpful staff members. we became good friends with max (a bell boy) he helped us a lot know about places and things to do. he even joined us in kayaking as my wife was a bit scared of doing it. if you see max - tell him you read about him from kevin and nana. -longtail food sellers at phra nang beach - look for a guy called barack. very friendly and great food.if you see barack - tell him you read about him from kevin and nana. -find the monkeys near phra nang beach caves. -kayaking,snorkelling. great fun. the 'could be improved' -hotel service - cleaners sometimes need reminding of replacing items e.g. shower gel. not a big problem. -occasional bad smell in bathroom. -power outage every now and then. -mosquitoes - but it is thailand so that's expected. -breakfast buffet-go early otherwise some of the food is covered by small flies. food was okay. -tv- limited channels and variety-but who cares about tv. overall this resort was a delightful place to relax and unwind. we really enjoyed the beaches.

The east side of the Railay peninsula, where the hotel is, is full of mangrove so no beach time there, but the walk to the west side and to the stunning phra nang beach is just 10 minutes long. All the rooms overlook the long pool and the ground floor ones have direct access to the pool through a large wooden deck balcony; this was really a great feature of our room and I would recommend spending those extra money. The materials and furniture used inside and outside the rooms are of good quality and nicely thought out, the rooms are very big and the bed is one of the best we've ever tried in south east Asia. It's is a nice to see that so much effort and attention has been paid to the design and landscape of this place. We tried the 250 bath buffet breakfast and were pleased with it; sure it's well above the normal price in other places along Railay East, but this is not a backpacker place: the open restaurant is well designed, staff is friendly, you pay for the cleanliness and for better food so it's definitely worth it. They currently have special offers because the hotel is recently opened and the value-for-money is very high. I would go back.

My family and I stayed in one of the Superior Cottages at Railay Phutawan Resort for 5 nights over the Chinese New Year holiday. Our cottage had plenty of room for two adults + one extra bed for our daughter. The first night our AC wasn't working, but they had it fixed by the next day. Never had any problems in our room after that. (Although, do note that WiFi is pretty hit or miss here!) Basics were provided in the bathroom and one bottle of free water was provided for each person every day of our stay. Our cottage was #1210, right next to the offices and pool area, so we really had no view to speak of. Many of the other cottages have better views, so be sure to request one of those if it matters to you. On the plus side, I think our location spared us some of the bug issues others have mentioned in their reviews! We enjoyed the resort's buffet breakfast each morning and appreciated that it remained open from 7:30am to 11am, for those mornings we wanted to sleep in. (Breakfast is better the earlier you go, though!) The food available stayed mostly the same for our whole stay, but it was hot, tasty, and filling so we didn't mind. Despite going over a holiday, the resort didn't feel particularly crowded and we were always able to find a lounger by the pool when we wanted to go. Speaking of the pool, it's a huge selling point for the resort. The view is incredible, but there is also zero shade there, so going earlier or later in the day is more comfortable. If you're up early enough, sunrise is quite pretty from the pool area or the deck above the resort's offices! It's a pretty good walk to the beaches - Railay West and Phra Nang - and Walking Street where many restaurants are, but the pay-off of being so far from the busy areas is that it's super quiet here. We never heard anything except roosters from our cottage, so sleep quality was great! Be mindful on the path leading past Diamond Cave to the resort, though - the monkeys are always watching and waiting to g

The rooms are big with all mod cons, nice shady verandas and each room is a separate unit so they feel quite private. They also had hot showers which are quite hard to come by in Thailand! The maid service was very thorough and regular. There is a very inviting swimming pool with comfortable loungers and a view of the beach. All the staff were very helpful. It's not the world's most stylish hotel but ticks all the boxes for a good beach base, would be good for families too given the size of the rooms. We didn't eat in the restaurant so I don't know how that fares I'm afraid. Railay is a small place which has something for everyone. West Railay where the hotel is based is a beautiful wide white sandy bay surrounded by amazing cliffs, only accessible by boat from Ao Nang (about 20 mins). Hotels line the back of the beach, there is also a cocktail bar and a grocery shop,and a VERY expensive Western restaurant but that is about it. From the hotel you can take a 10 minute walk to Phra Nang beach which is another lovely spot, popular with climbers, lots of cliffs and rocks in the sea, only one (posh) hotel but also lots of long tail boat shops selling food and all the usual beach paraphernalia. There's also East Railay which is much more rough and ready and where all the backpackers stay - some nice chilled out bars and cheap places to eat - all about a 5 minute walk from West Railay. And if you get bored you could always get back on the long tail and go to Railay's neighboring beach, Ton Sai or back to Ao Nang - cheap easy and regular! There are also snorkeling trips and ferries leaving for the other islands from here - beware the mid-sea transfer from long tail to ferry, quite a bizarre experience! All in all a relaxed and beautiful beach retreat, highly recommend it.

I was very satisfied with my stay. The reception staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The Resort has a very nice rooftop pool and is in a good setting. It's on the East side of Raileh, which means a short walk to either the West side or to Phra Nang beach if you want to enjoy the beach (10 min max walk). I deliberately chose the East side this time since the Resorts on the West side are old and overpriced and their rooms reach all the way to the East side anyways. I would totally recommend Railay Princess Resort & Spa if you're looking for clean & modern accommodation. Will return!

Nice resort, we got a good price for it, was definitely worth it. rooms were clean and the service was good, breakfast was quite decent. we previously stayed in a much cheaper place on Railay and was severely disappointed and realized that there aren't that great options for budget accommodations, so if you're on a bit of a budget but willing to spend a little, this is a good option. located on railay east, which isnt a nice beach but its only 5-10 mins walk to railay west which is beautiful, and a bit further to Phra nang beach

Stayed three nights and was only in need of decent, clean room for a decent price but the room was still dusty and bathroom walls and shelves not cleaned properly I so would probably look elsewhere if I ever came back or wanted a nice holiday. Wifi only worked in the reception which we knew beforehand but is worth noting. On the plus side, it has a beautiful mountainside backdrop, it's not very far from the pier on the East Side, the walk across to Railay and Phra Nang Beach was only about 10 and 20 minutes respectively and the popular "The Last Bar" just down the road. Breakfast tip: Friendship Restaurant just outside the Hotel area had really good coffee in my Swedish opinion!

I absolutely loved staying at Railay Garden View Resort. I loved it so much, I stayed there four times! And I will definitely stay there again. You are in a little oasis at Garden View and while the rest of Railay might be taken over by concrete resorts, this place has retained a natural environment couched in the jungle on a hillside overlooking the sea, and it still feels like Thailand. The views from the resort are stunning and waking up each morning and sitting on my balcony to enjoy the scenery was amazing. I’ve stayed in both the sea view and the garden view bungalows and even my garden view room had some view of the sea, so you really can’t go wrong. The rooms are very charming as well with pleasant décor, comfortable beds, a powerful fan, mosquito net and a safety box. There are only cold water showers, but this never bothered me when I was there because the weather was always so hot. The wi-fi worked very well all over the resort and the included breakfast was great. The resort is just a short walk to restaurants and bars on Railay east and about 10 min. to walk to Railay West or Phra Nang beach. The staff at Railay Garden View is exceptionally friendly and hard working and I was always warmly greeted. The resort manager, An, is especially welcoming and personable and great at fast check ins, helping you with special requests and giving you any information about Railay you might need. You can also organize rock climbing lessons (full or half day) with An who is an excellent climbing guide and Garden View has a climbing shop to set you up with all the gear you need. Railay itself is a beautiful spot to stay for several days or more. It’s calm and not crowded with tourists, shops or massage parlors like neighboring Ao Nang or Phuket. It has a lot to offer in terms of activities and although it’s not an island, it certainly has that small and local island feel to it.

This place was wonderful. Right on the water, though not a swimming beach, but you could watch the sunrise in the morning. It was only a 10 minute walk along the beachfront to rock climbing and another 5 to phra nang cave and swimming beach. The pool was nice and cleaned daily. The hotel is right on the water but the rooms run out away from the beach so even at night when loud parties were going on we couldn’t even hear it. The staff were great and so accommodating. We arrived 11 pm to Ao Nang beach and because of Ramadan were told we couldn’t get a boat. This we rented hotel room there and arrived the next day. When we got there they said no problem and just switched the start date of our 4 night stay so we didn’t lose a day. Very helpful and very friendly. Restaurant on site was significantly cheaper than other places we checked as well so that was a bonus.

Booked one night stay and picked Rapala as it was the best rated hotel in our budget. Bungalow was charming although I agree with some of the other reviews...the bathroom wasn’t the best. We also had lunch at the restaurant which was surprisingly good. Vegetarian options for every meat dish which is always good and the prices were on the cheaper side. Would recommend for a couple nights stay.

There are four large bungalows and five small ones. The whole place is run by a guy. He's a really great guy. You can talk to him about anything from customer service to acupuncture to conspiracy theories about air pollution and genetic splicing. His English isn't the best, but he's certainly hospitable and offers food and coffee every morning. I don't recommend booking online though. There are over a dozen places to stay on Tonsai Beach, and most are not on Agoda. If you're not staying during the high-season, you can find rooms for as little as $5/night, including here at Sai-Ngam. It's the farthest resort from Tonsai Beach before you start walking to Railey, but it makes for a great experience. It's up a big hill so it's 10-15 minutes from the beach, depending on which way you're heading. Nonetheless, it's a great place! So, if you're not afraid of a few bumps in the night, this is definitely the place to stay, unplug, enjoy the wildlife, and save a few dollars in the process. Fan and electricity during generator hours (common practice) between 6pm and 1am, mosquito net, toilets and showers, decent beds, and sheets laundered on site.

One of the best Backpackers I've ever stayed in (Don't let the staircase to the sky scare you) I've travelled and stayed in a lot of backpackers.. Blancos has definitely got it right. There's a mixture of different age groups and nationalities and the staff are very hard working and pretty awesome. Each member of staff has their unique quality that helps to make guests feel very welcome. It is known as a party hostel, however all party is often taken out of the hostel itself after 10pm and you can choose wether to join in or not, no one will try to persuade you. I stayed for 6 days and never once did any party wake me up. There was a pretty yukky incident that did disturb my stay one night in the dorm but that is to be expected. The incident was dealt with discreetly, professionally and extremely efficiently as soon as staff were made aware of the incident. Thank you Blancos staff for an awesome Budget, fun and memorable stay.. how i would love to be there now
