We stayed here in April 2012, and paid 1000 baht a night including breakfast. We were really pleased with the bungalow - the layout was nice, with a spacious bedroom and bathroom, and very bugproof, while being in a nice natural environment. The price included breakfast, which was really good - especially the banana pancakes, and unlimited tea, coffee and... More

To each their own but we stayed here April 11th during the Tsunami scare. I've stayed at hotels higher up and this wasn't bad enough to deter us returning home during the day. There is a lift but if it's just one or two bags they'll just carry it up for you. Cold showers are annoying. But so is paying... More

I booked this hotel after reading the glowing reviews on trip advisor. I would caution that it does not live up to the hype. While the rooms are lovely, clean, and have an incredible view, there are more cons than pros. First, the stairs - most people have said they aren't strenuous, but they are. I am a reasonably fit...

We were here in February. It is a high quality and not expensive resort to stay at Railay beach.Comfortable room decorated in wood, no insects, dust and very clean, fresh bedsheets.We had a seaview, so the view was incredible!The bungalow has a big terrace and comfortable chairs, and u know it is very cool to relax on your own terrace...

If you are looking for your own private jungle hideaway look no further! This place is well worth the cheap price, and if you don't mind spending a little extra get a sea view room, the views are magnificent. Getting there can be a little challenging but if you ask around people will point you in the right direction. We... More

We booked three nights and stayed eight. There is typically a cool breeze up on the hillside and the view and sounds of the jungle creates a nice atmosphere. There is some noise from longtails.

We've just returned after 2 weeks spent at Railay Garden View. We've had an amazing time and, having explored some of the surrounding area, feel that we really won out by staying there as it managed to strike a great balance of comfort with basic rustic charm. As said in previous reviews, the staff lead by Gee were so friendly... More

Mixed reviews on T.A. are always a bit of a concern before you get somewhere but we wanted a traditional style of bungalow, on a small resort and tucked away from the hustle and bustle that we anticipated at Railay. And we were not disappointed! When we first came off the long tail from Ao Nang, and had the long... More

As other reviews have mentioned, this is located on the mangrove side of Railay. Yes, there are some stairs, yes there is no hot water.. but did this bother us or impact negatively on our stay? No way!! After a very long travelling day to get here, we were hot and bothered and the manager met us with cold water... More

Top reasons why this place rocks: 1. The guy who works the front desk (Tak?) is awesome. He and his staff are super friendly and very responsive to your needs. 2. The breakfast rocks. Eggs and pancakes cooked to order. The view from the restaurant is spectacular. 3. I hate bugs. Staying in a jungle environment goes against my nature.... More
