Excellent property with everything very close to the resort. One thing to keep in mind is that there is no way to get here by car/taxi. You need to take a short boat trip from the mainland.

I still think about this property to this day. First and foremost the breakfast was great. Location is superb because it’s the resort closest to the main dock, so if you’re doing excursions - you don’t have to wake up so early to walk to the dock or when you arrive/leave you won’t have to take your bags very far. Views from every angle of this hotel are insane. You can see the beautiful rocks and ocean every which way. The room itself is huge and ac works fabulous. I did really enjoy all the close bars and restaurants near by. There’s also a nail salon in walking distance that was great. At night there is bioluminescence in the water, so a night swim is always fun. As a solo female traveler I felt very safe and secure in my room. Make sure to check out all the beaches near by, some may not be available to access until the tide goes down so ask a local to help show you. I can’t wait to come here again

This hotel is a good option for staying at Railay. It is very close to the East Railay pier, so if you are travelling with luggage, it is easy to get to and from. The rooms are spacious with good sized balconies. Housekeeping wasnt great though. There are horrible drain smells from the srain in the bathroom.floor sometimes and the bathrooms weren't cleaned thoroughly during our stay, only on arrival. The pool areas are good, and the pools are clean. Breakfast wasn't great. The food is kept in heated buffet servers, but they are not kept heated, so hot items like eggs and sausages are cold.

Our recent stay at Railay Princess Resort & Spa, a 4-star hotel, presented a blend of positives and areas for improvement. The room, while comfortable with firm beds and efficient air conditioning, faced the downside of a renovation site, impacting the view and introducing unwanted noise and odors. The presence of monkeys, although naturally occurring, limited our use of the balcony. The Christmas buffet and show, while enjoyable in spirit, came with limitations. Seated upstairs, our view of the show was restricted, lessening our experience. Additionally, the cost of almost 1900 baht per person felt steep, especially considering it was more than a regular feast meal for four. While understanding the premium of Christmas events, it was a bit disappointing. Breakfast offerings were basic but decent. The two pool areas stood out for their pleasantness, and the staff's service was notably good, showcasing Thailand's warm hospitality. The overall ambiance of Railay, resembling a hippie town with numerous weed spots, wasn't entirely to our taste, though the beach itself was lovely. In rating the hotel, considering its 4-star status, we'd give it a 3 out of 6. The specific location of our room and the Christmas event pricing significantly influenced our view. It's a suitable option for those looking for simple accommodation in Railay, particularly during the high season.

There is no water pressure in the shower and you will get stagnant water in the shower floor. The hotel is a bit lackluster for a 4-star. It needs a little bit of a revamp. However, it is very conviniently located steps away from the pier and you will also have the visit of cute monkeys straight from the room's balcony.

Fabulous location right by the boat pier. Our room overlooked a pond and the pool at the back of the property. Incredible for wildlife viewing, fish, monitor lizards, birds and monkeys. Breakfast was varied and plentiful with a lovely relaxed setting. I wouldn’t really think this was 4 stars though. Bathroom design was not ideal with nowhere to even place your toothbrush! Never loan any makeup. Only one power plug for the entire room! No power points beside the bed.

Railay beach is a must for any trip to southern Thailand, absolutely beautiful. Don’t forget to check out Phara Nang Beach as it is even better. For the price this resort is a such a fantastic deal. Perfect location, amazing rooftop pool, great rooms. Service and food were decent (nothing bad to say at all just spent a lot of time at other restaurants). Although technically not an island, you can only access by boat and therefore it functions like an island in all the best ways, as it feels very tropical and removed from the mainland for a relaxing and authentic feel. It takes 15 minutes to boat there and we had no problem at all during the hours of 8-6 to get there and back from the Krabi/Ao Nang. Such a highlight of our trip, nothing negative to say.

Unless you like getting ripped off, stay awau

Felt like a scam the whole time. Have been going to Railay for over ten years now and have been by this hotel numerous times and looked very nice but had never stayed there. When I arrived I was put in a real shabby building which u cannot see from walking street. The room was really embarrassing with an old, moldy bathroom, useless WiFi and a bed that had been to war. After two days of complaining about the WiFi, I was upgraded but still not to the main building but to the top floor of the same building I was already in. The room was nicer and the WiFi was slightly better but there was a terrible smell coming from the bathroom. When I informed staff, they seemed to careless and a few hours later put in a candle. Despite these problems staff never checked back in to see how everything was. Also on the night before checkout I asked for a late checkout and they said to call back at 8am and then maybe they would give me a half hour more. In the end it was very disappointing. The place was falling apart and the staff had an attitude of caring less. Almost like they know it’s bad but figure most people will stay 1-2 nights and be gone. In the end I moved to my regular hotel (which had been sold out) next door which felt like a palace for the same price
