About the hotel:
Beautiful resort on West Railay, we stayed for 1 week and very much enjoyed it. The room is beautiful and clean, the restaurant serves good food. The west Railay beach is pretty, but we enjoyed our time also on Phranang beach ( about 15 min.walk) and also on Tongsai bay. Short lagoon trip was quite exciting, and the night at East Railay was a huge fun.

Very nice and really enjoyed. Next time we will spend even more days at railay village. One thing may be you can book transport cause to go on longtail with four luggages to carry was a tiring feat but at least it was really worth it

About the hotel:
We arrived later than expected and the room was not ready. We were asked to wait to allow the cleaners to finish with it. The room (Spa villa) is spacious, but there is not a single place to put away the clothes (apart from where the safe is, which does not accomodate more than a few pairs of pants) therefore the suitcases ended up occupying most of the space available on the floor. Also unless one plans to have a jacuzzi bath every day, I don t think it is worth the extra money. Days were perfect given the location and the facilities, but nights were a total nightmere. Hoards of voracious mosquitoes in the room, no mosquito net on the bed, an AC system that could have frozen us to death for 5 minutes, while the next 5 would have left us sweltering (not too good for one s sinuses), not to speak of the noise, more suited to a jet engine. The bed only had a thick duvet on it (which seems rather inappropriate when the temperature outside is 30+...I can only guess that the AC, if kept on all night at 21 degrees (or below) would have taken care of the mosquitoes by making them unable to move; of the duvet by making it an essential item for not dying of pneumonia; and of the lack of storage space by the sheer necessity of wearing everything at night. We didn t sleep a wink each and every night! An experience not to be repeated. Pity for the swimming pool, great for children to chill out after a day by the sea, but next time it will have to be another resort.
About the reservation service:
very efficient and ready to give alternatives when chosen option was not available. Unfortunately not all resorts in Krabi are served by Sawadee, so for a complete picture of what is available one needs to do further research.

About the hotel:
Our second visit here and LOVED IT once again! The rooms were spacious, well appointed and impeccably clean. The bathrooms were large with seperate tub and shower. We had 2 rooms and they were adjoined, excellent for families. The 2 pools were definate highlights, especially with the kids. And the buffet breakfast was a hit with everyone.. good selection. Especially the made to order omelets. Fantastic resort!
About the reservation service:
Easy and painless!

Fabulous hotel at a very reasonable price in a great location - you really can t ask for more. We were surprised by how very good the restaurant food was as well so ate there quite a few nights. I recommend strongly and will go back again.

About the hotel:
Railay Village is a really nice place! Simple! If you worried about the resort and pool not looking like it does in the pictures, don’t because everything is as nice as it looks on the website. We stayed in the pool access room and it was really nice, modern, clean and quite large. The pool really is amazing as we were there in early June, it was extremely quiet and very relaxing. Food in the restaurant is not great, but plenty of other places to eat. Staff were all very helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend paying the extra and staying here!
About the reservation service:
Excellent

About the hotel:
Overall we loved the Resort! The pool villa was clean and comfortable...we enjoyed being just next to the pool -- a nice break from the beach heat!
I had read several comments/reviews that mentioned the staff being unhelpful and even rude. I find this a bit shocking, as the staff were very nice and helpful and even very friendly---but we were friendly to the staff. I think it is a matter of being nice and people are nice back (hmmm simple really)! As foreigners we need to remember that english is NOT their first language and have respect for the fact that they are speaking engligh to support us!! I did overhear a few conversations where the foreign guest did not treat the staff so nicely (rude actually) and of course the staff memeber was not friendly and definitely less helpful!
people you are on vacation...take it easy and smile a little --that smile can go a long way!!
About the reservation service:
I had no issues, very easy to use and received payment confirmation quickly.
