Hi

I haven't stayed there but according to different web pages it looks great :S-

I checked www.epinions.com but it seems like no one has published a review yet. If you stay there you should think about sharing a review of the hotel with others.

My wife and I went to Krabi (Ao Nang) last year. I have published a trip report and some pictures on my homepage www.gardkarlsen.com. Maybe you can find some useful information there ((H))

Stayed there for a week last Christmas. Very beautiful, very luxurious resort. Splendid location. Every possible service. Our hotel room price included breakfast and dinner. If you plan to eat at resort get meals included or they will be very expensive. We loved it!!!! Expensive but worth it.

I agree with the last poster. We stayed there in February this year and it was amazing. We also had our breakfast and dinner included. The location cannot be beat. The beaches are beautiful. This was our favorite location in Thailand.

I would agree it's nice, but for those of us who live in the area it is out of our reach price-wise.

If you want beach, lazy days and relaxation try the Sunrise resort on Railey beach. About $60 a night.

Thanks everyone. We have booked in for December and hear it is a beautiful as it looks. As for the previous message, thanks for the tip, but since I am traveling a long way to Asia, I want to stay in the best of the best, as I have heard that this one is!

Thanks everyone!

One more question to those who have stayed at Rayavadee.

Can you "charter" or rent a boat to take you to the other islands or beaches close by? Prefer motorized boat and one to ourselves. I know there are probably longtail boats which are great for beaches that are close by, but do they have motorboats as well.

Thanks to everyone for the info!

All longtail boats are motorized. You can rent a private longtail boat with driver for only $15 a day from Ao Nang beach. They'll take you anywhere you wish to go.
