Construction notice: A large new resort, from the owners of Krabi Heritage Resort, has recently started building behind Railay Princess Resort, on Railay East beach. We expect noise (which will be limited to daytime only) to be at a disturbing level here until at least mid-2008.
Railay Princess Resort, along with its sister resort, Railay Bay, is at the forefront of the unrelenting gentrification of Railay. A new resort, that opened in early 2006, it is large in scale and catering mainly to couples and families, rather than the backpackers of yore.
The resort is situated in between the east and west side, so has no direct beach access. Railay West is around 150m walk, through Railay Village Resort.
There is an average sized, freeform swimming pool in the grounds, as well as a large pond (or small lake!), filled with fish and lotus flowers, that is traversed by a teakwood walkway. With the Railay cliffs in the background, Railay Princess enjoys quite a picturesque location. All 45 rooms are west facing, with private balconies and housed in three storey blocks - there are no bungalows here - and are decorated in a contemporary Thai style.
Furnishing and fabrics are nice and the rooms are very comfortable; however, you will occasionally spot a missed bit of paint, or a chipped table corner - testament to the speed with which the resort was built. The marble bathroom features a walk-in hot water shower, but no tub; and all rooms, unusually, are fully carpetted. There seems to be little difference between superior and deluxe, except in the in-room amenities (see below for details).
The Princess restaurant is located next to the lily pond and serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, as well as providing room service until 11pm. The Thai food is not bad. Service is generally good and attentive, although English is not spoken fluently.
Facilities
All accommodation at Railay Princess Resort has air-con, fridge with minibar, satellite TV, IDD telephone, tea and coffee making facilities and a toiletries set. Deluxe rooms have, in addition, bathrobes and slippers and a hairdryer. A safe deposit box is available at reception.
The resort's swimming pool has a children's area. Baby cots and babysitting service are available upon request. Laundry and dry cleaning can also be arranged. The resort has 24 hour security, minimart and guest information service. Please note that Railay Princess is a Muslim-owned resort and as such does not serve pork in its restaurant. Other services include tour counter, fax & postal service, as well as conference and banqueting facilities.
