The best views and service in Krabi

This is our 5th or 6th visit to Pimalai and we love it every time we stay. Our main reason for coming back each year is the service we get from Ambas who works in Rak Talay, always doing his upmost to make sure we...have the best time possible. Stayed for the amazing buffets for Christmas and New Year, my wife and son had an amazing time and really enjoyed themselves. Cant wait to go back! Thank you Ambas!More

Just perfect

I am thai and I can guarantee that thai dishes here are original and authentic. Padtai and Somtam is one of the best. All the staffs here are super friendly. We ordered the surf and turf bbq set and everything tasted so fresh. I would...like to special thank to K add who served us icy water all day long. Also big thank you to K Nut who took care of us at the beach cabana (I know my husband worried you by swimming in such a string sea! thank you thank you thank you!). I can’t finish this review without mentioning Chef Peng, who is not only serving us amazing meals but also a brilliant teacher during cooking classes for my twins. We will come back. Thank you all :)More

A real happy hours!

We really enjoyed the happy hours here. The cocktails were great and we had tried a lot during our stay. 'Coconut dream' the signature cocktail is our favourite here. The surf & turf dish was fresh. Thing that could be improved is the variety of...food I would love to see more choices. By the way, great view, great cocktails, nice food and very service-minded staff made us love this place and would love to come back to stay at Pimalai again.More

Great view and service but average food

This restaurant sits directly at the beach with a nice view, the seating is comfortable and the service is good. Unfortunately though, our food during both lunch and dinner here were just average.

Perfect place for a long lazy lunch

Rak Talay sits on the wonderful beach in the little bay Pimalai dominates. Over the years we've loved this place and recently the food has taken a further step forward and offers simple but beautifully prepared Asian and European fare washed down with an extensive...range of beverages. I've loved the seafood platter, sitting on a beach eating raw oysters, tuna and salmon is such a delight.A major plus also are the wonderful people here. Mai does a great job of offering wonderful service through her staff whilst creating a professional, friendly caring attitude. Nights here are sublime too and not to be missed are their special evenings of BBQ and seafood. Love it!More
