In the center of West Railay, this resort offers comfortable cottages and more opulent villas. Added bonuses are great Thai food and a beachside patio and bar from which you can watch the sunset. You can also get a massage in a room overlooking the beach and pool. The minimart is nearby.
Scattered across 26 landscaped acres, this magnificent resort is set in coconut groves with white-sand beaches on three sides. The lobby faces East Railay, the pool looks out over West Railay Bay, and the beach bar and restaurant are the only structures on Phra Nang Beach—Rayavadee has the only direct access to this beautiful stretch of sand. Circular pavilions built in traditional Thai style have spacious living rooms with curving staircases that lead up to opulent bedrooms and baths with huge round tubs. Some of the best rooms have secluded gardens with private hot tubs. Four restaurants assure variety—the beachfront Krua Pranang, set in a breezy pavilion, serves outstanding Thai food.
