Railay Village Resort: Pictures, Reviews and Rates

 

Our review of Railay Village Resort

Railay Village Resort & Spa: The completion of this ambitious rebuilding of an ageing resort draws to a close all of 2007's construction activity on this beach. This means West Railay in general (be it Sand Sea, Railay Bay or Railay Village Resorts) is now looking very appealing - if you can get a room.

Railay Village Resort & Spa is under the same ownership as Somkiet Buri Resort in Ao Nang, and this upmarket revamp has taken the trademark Somkiet style (lush garden, natural materials) to a new level.

Railey Village is now competing with Railay Bay for the 4-star crowd, with one great advantage: its size. This smaller, 50 room resort has a more intimate atmosphere than Railay Bay (though the rooms themselves are slightly smaller) and it feels less package-touristy. The rooms are beautifully decorated in contemporary Thai style with polished wood - the vaulted ceilings of the Spa Villas in particular are very nice - and two swimming pools means neither will feel crowded.

If we had to choose between the Railay Bay Resort Privacy Cottages and the Railay Village Spa Villas, we would pick the latter, despite the slightly higher price tag. In general, we would recommend Railay Village for a honeymoon, or getaway break for couples - it's definitely a resort for grown-ups.
