Комфортабельные номера, вкусный завтрак, чистый бассейн, ежедневная уборка, дружелюбный персонал.
Отель находится в удалении от всех ресторанов и пляжа 20 минут ходьбы. Но к ним ведет тенистая дорожка вдоль моря, по которой приятно прогуляться.
Beautiful place but quite far from where everything is happening. I was there alone and had to walk in the dark on the edge of a cliff at night under a heavy rain to reach the hotel from the walking street, the distance is about 1 kilometre. The hotel is on a hill so you may need to test your legs and lungs to reach your room. The reception staff is friendly and very helpful, the breakfast lady was not interested in helping, probably a language issue. But good food variety.
Le cottage extra et la piscine
Le bruit incessant des long tail boat
Our large cabin with nice balcony, sitting in a palm grove with marginal seaview. It took a few days to discover a great beach on the other side of the village half hour walk
The place is dry, no beer or any other alcohol. But the continued passage close by of hundreds of diesel powered longboats was not nice.
Sehr schön gepflegte Anlage mitten im Dschungel mit tollen Pflanzen, schöner Pool freundlich zuvorkommende Mitarbeiter
Chalé amplo e espaçoso, super confortável, varanda com vista para o mar, uma delícia a noite.
Perfect :)
המלון הכי גרוע שהייתי בו כל החיים שלי, בתאילנד בפרט, החדר ישן ומלוכלך, סימנים של שמן וידיים על המראות על הארון, לכלוכים על הרצפה והחלונות, חלודה בברזים בכיורים ואפילו במסמרים על הקירות, תמורה בזיונית למחיר לא זול ששילמנו אחרי ששילמנו פי 2 מהמחיר המבוקש לעונה, חורים ברשת שמכסה את המיטה ואמורה להגן עלינו מפני אין סוף יתושים וחרקים שנמצאים בתוך החדר ומחוצה לו, כל המתקנים במלון ישנים ומלוכלכים, מציעים חוויית ״טבע״ אבל בפועל מקבלים חוויית הישרדות כמו בטירונות בצבא פשוט גועל נפש, חבל שאי אפשר לצרף יותר מ3 תמונות שיעידו כמה היה נורא. ג׳וק מת באמבטיה ויתושים על הקירות
המקום מצריך לקחת סירה מהמחזור המרכזי קראבי ולאחר מכן להגיע למזח שרחוק רבע שעה הליכה ברגל עם המזוודות ובלי שירות הולם מהמלון של עזרה כלשהי, או סירה נוספת בעלות לא זולה בכלל. כל ההתניידות מהמלון בעייתית ומסורבלת כיוון שהם מציעים שירותי סירה רק בשעות מסוימות שמוגבלות מאוד ולכן נותר רק להשאר במלון ולשלם מחירים לא זולים בכלל במסעדה ובחנות המלון. שירותי הקבלה מזעזעים, אין מענה בטלפון. שיח מזלזל ולא אדיב כמו ביתר המקומות בתאילנד שידועים בשירותיות הגבוהה שלהם.
The location was amazing, the staff super friendly. good breakfast. amazing views.
We woke up with bites. and they looked like bed bug bites. we think it was because they brought a matrass topper for us the second night. and from that point we got the bites.
Все было шикарно,завтраки,виды,мы просто влюбились в это место
Avec mon mari, nous avons beaucoup apprécié l'hôtel, son emplacement proche de la nature ainsi que le personnel qui était vraiment top ! Le petit déjeuner est bon et change en fonction du jour. La piscine est propre avec une vue sublime. Tout était parfait, certains commentaires citent le bruit des bateaux comme étant gênant mais cela ne nous a pas dérangé du tout, faut juste se dire que c'est le seul moyen de transport pour venir ici. Nous reviendrons à coup sûr !!!
Rien du tout
Het is er heerlijk rustig en afgelegen en je hebt een heel mooi uitzicht. Personeel is enorm vriendelijk en willen je altijd helpen! We hebben het er heel leuk gehad.
Af en toe was de hygiëne wat minder, er zaten bijvoorbeeld regelmatig kakkerlakken in onze badkamer en sommige dingen zagen er een beetje oud uit. Resort ligt aardig afgelegen van het centrum dus je moet een aardig eindje lopen.
Beautiful surroundings and lovely views. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The pool was great and breakfast was good too. Rooms are very spacious and so are the bathrooms.
Would have loved a bit softer pillow and bed, just a choice of pillow maybe? Some sort of shower curtain or glass wall to stop the water escaping everywhere in the bathroom. Boats going past constantly are in need of a muffler, but that is not the resorts fault, is what it is!
Unbelievable- can’t recommend this resort enough!
Nothing
It is secluded and remote accessible only by boat. It’s a nice walk to many restaurants. The Dee was comfortable. Breakfast had variety. Enjoyed the pool. The view is lovely.
No adult beverages available at the resort. Didn’t like the roaches though it’s understandable given the thatched roof, unsealed floors and gaps in the bathroom ceiling.
This is our favourite hotel Thailand. It combines the luxury of a 4* hotel whilst retaining the rustic charms of living in the jungle. Despite the staff being relatively new they went above and beyond to ensure you have the best stay ever.
Le personnel, le petit déjeuner fabuleux,
Le côté non terminé des bugalows, un peu trop de matériaux un peu partout .
Nádherné místo, dostopné pouze člunem, krásné pláže, výborné restaurace, skvělí lidé, výborný výběr ze snídaňového menu, výborné ubytování přímo v pralese, čistota a pravidelná údržba v resortu, vždy usměvavý a ochotný personál
večer a v noci jsou slyšet motory malých člunů, které převáží návštěvníky z pevniny a zpět
Le fait que les bungalows soient dans la nature et qu’ils soient dans un endroit calme
Très bon emplacement, dans un cadre beau et calme. Très bonne restauration. Un personnel accueillant, souriant et disponible.
Cudowne,wspaniałe klimatyczne miejsce w pięknym i zachwycającym ogrodzie- w zasadzie dżungli, pełnej wielkich niesamowitych motyli, "śpiewjących cykad" i porannych "odwiedzin" małp w koronach drzew-oczywiście z dala -z werandy za drzewami lazurowe morze. Personel pomocny dbający o czystość i komfort,
hôtel perché dans la nature avec la visite quotidienne des singes, bungalows spacieux et bien équipés, restauration de qualité aussi bien pour le petit déjeuner que pour le restaurant. Personnel charmant
un peu bruyant le soir à cause des long tails boat mais supportable, le ménage laisse un peu à désirer
Wunderschöne Bungalows mit modernem Badezimmer und grandiosem Ausblick. Wir hatten regelmäßig Besuch von Limuren und Schönhörnchen, die man wunderbar beobachten konnte. Der Pool und die Bucht sind herrlich. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend.
Manche Kleintiere haben den Weg in die Bungalows gefunden… aber was will man machen… man ist schließlich im Dachungel
המקום ממוקם בחוף מקסים. הוא לא לריצה אבל הנוף יפהפה מכל מקום במלון. החדר היה מעוצב יפהפה והיה רומנטי ונעים מאד להיות בו. המרפסת הכי טובה שהיתה לנו. הכל ברמה גבוהה מאד. הבריכה של הריזורט היתה נהדרת.
יש קצת רעש בשעות מסוימות מהאוניות שחולפות בים. אבל לנו זה לא באמת הפריע.
Everything. The natural location. The nice ladies at reception and breakfast. The help from the smiling staff always. Thank you very much
Vu depuis la chambre, piscine, cadre superbe, personnel souriant, très b9n petit déjeuner.
Rien, tout était très bien.
- la chambre, la déco, le service proposé - la piscine - le petit déjeuner - la magnifique vue, beaucoup de faune - personnel très gentil
- prix élevé pour la restauration - hôtel éloigné du centre et des commerces - bruit jusqu’à 00h/01h des long boat, ça fait comme un bruit de tondeuse - ce n’est pas vraiment de leur faute, c’est simplement qu’il faut prendre en considération qu’ici il y a des moustiques, cafards et que le terrain n’est pas plat (préparez vos cuisses !)
Great Location with stunning views Great staff
Be aware that some of the accommodations are steep to get to. If you are unfit. Ask for lower rooms
Everything
Todo, tienen un servicio de recogida en el muelle para llevarte a su propio muelle donde recogen tu equipaje y luego al contrario al irte igual. Después te llevan a tu cabaña individual en medio de los árboles y tiene todo lujo de detalles para hacer tu estancia muy cómoda. Luego el servicio del hotel el maravilloso, te cuidan y están atentos en todo momento. El desayuno muy copioso y todo muy rico. Por poner un pequeño pero deberían mejorar su zona de masajes. Por todo lo demás totalmente recomendable si has decidido pasar unos días en Railay, aunque parece un poco más alejado de las playas principales, estás allí en 10 minutos y ese punto de intimidad y tranquilidad se agradece.

Sitio idílico
El desayuno se acaba muy pronto y no lo reponen. Si es hasta las 10:00am y yo voy a las 9:00 no es mi culpa si se ha acabado algo.
Tranquilidad y lugar.
Al estar más retirado hay que andar bastante para cualquier cosa.
บรรยากาศดี วิวสวยงาม ค่ะ
Cadre magnifique très tropicale
Le bruit des bateaux
Read quite a few reviews before booking this place and thank god I booked it! It was magical. We absolutely looooooved being in a "forest", we had the chance to see baby snakes around the area, monkeys in trees, so much wild life that blew our minds! So beautiful. Some rooms are steep, but if you're active it's no problem at all. Walkable to beautiful beaches nearby. Some mosquitoes might get into your room but that's all, they also have a mosquito net.
Breakfast was like most of the comments said, a very weird selection. Massaman curry, spaghetti, etc very heavy lunch/dinner type meals. Wish they had more fresh fruit, bakery instead! Pool bar and restaurant was very empty and we were not sure it was even open, as it was low season.
The location is beautiful- very secluded and wild. Amazing breakfast selection- fruits yoghurts pastry hot food egg station. The staff were so welcoming and accommodating- I had a tiny problem with a big in my bathroom (I’m a real wimp!) and they upgraded my room free of charge and also gave me a free transfer back to the mainland. Room was beautiful, I had a huge bed and balcony. Clean and orderly. They also give you a beach bag with a roller to lie on- so useful! Amazing pool too. Would definitely recommend.
I like walking so not a problem for me but it’s about a 20 min walk to the furthest beach.
Amamos la naturaleza y poder desayunar viendo monitos ardillas varanos y demás animales salvajes para nosotros no tiene precio. Muy bonito el hotel y ubicación excelente
Era imposible acceder y no lo comunicaban en ningún sitio antes de reservar, lo comunicaban una vez hecha la reserva. Además no facilitan la llegada
La vistas están bien. Se ve limpio.
Llegue de noche, llegar al hotel luego de las 19H es complicado. Falta señalización y para llegar caminando es oscuro.
The room is big with a balcony. You get to see sunrise straight from your room. Breakfast had many decent options that were tasty.
Though the toilet ceiling is leaking and not safe bc it's close to the socket. We asked for it to get looked at and even though we were promised it would be taken care of, it never was during our stay. The pool was shut down for maintenance the morning after we arrived, and remained shut down until the morning we checked out. The restaurant was also shut down for maintenence during the last part of our stay. We were provided the promised free meal that day though regardless. The walk to the main strip was 15 minutes. Not bad, though the trail is not maintained all that well. Flashlights are provided in the room, and will be needed after dark because not the whole trail is well lit after dark. Ordered room service once, the metal tray our fried rice came in had rust spots we didn't notice until after we finished the food.
Las vistas.
Esta alejado del centro. Al estar en la selva, hubo un "animal" por dentro de la estructura de la cabaña que no nos dejó dormir. Aunque tuvieron el detalle de dejarnos unos tapones. A la la piscina le da el sol hasta las 11 de la mañana, despues ya nada.
Natural view with decent monkeys. Unreal setup.
The staff were friendly and very helpful The grounds are imaculate and the resort is surrounded in natural beauty.
Magnifique hôtel, cadre magnifique, personnel adorable , très bon restaurant!
Climatisation très bruyante
Love the monkeys being around the pool and all tha nature! Private beach, beautiful views, great buffet
สวยยยยยยยย ธรรมชาติ บรรยากาศดีมากค่ะ ห้องสะอาดมาก พนักงานนน่ารักค่ะ
Beautiful setting, gardens, pool and bungalows with great views and secluded beach. Lovely bathroom and shower.
Breakfast was a bit disappointing, hot food selections a bit tasteless. Loved the Coffee croissants and fruit
Lovely area, close to town but a little getaway with everything you need. Restaurant food is good, pool and private beach. The room has all the things to make a comfortable trip. We loved our stay. Two things to remember, mosquito repent and sign up for the shuttle boat a day before, it fills up!
Location was superb
They should keep some veg item in breakfast
Private resort far away from city But still good enough to feel comforable
Breakfast was so bland and tasteless
Beautiful property, super quiet and private. Cottages are super cozy, breakfast was good, and long tail boat service was very helpful when visiting during low season. Saw lots of monkeys and lizards on the property, and thoroughly enjoyed how nestled into the jungle it was.
Little to complain about. Could say property was far from major beaches but we knew that when we booked so can’t really complain about it. Depending on the location of your cabin on the property you may be hiking up a hefty hill or flight of stairs. Prepare yourself. Only other thing was the long boats passing the resort can be loud but never bothered us while in our room. Property was overall exceptional
pool; was not properly clean and you hv to track to reach your room. we have to cancell our booking for which we din't get any refund reson for cancellation is that on our mate is not able to walk to the room
staff service and remote location
A quiet paradise at the end of relay; great views; next to the own restaurant there is an amazing simple local bar/resto with bar and massage with a splendid atmosphere - always came back here instead of staying in relay
Nothing comes to mind
De rust, het uitzicht , de natuur ,het vriendelijke personeel.Het is even back to basic en je moet idd wel goed te been en conditie hebben om steeds naar je bungalow te klimmen maar hoort wat mij betreft ook echt bij de locatie - ervaring. In de avond liepen wij in 15 minuutjes richting Raily voor een cocktail bij zonsondergang en een lekkere maaltijd.
Hoe je er komt. Vanaf de pier moet je dus niet mee naar de algemene pier maar speciaal vragen naar de hotel pier. Een drankjes service bij het zwembad zou fijn zijn. De longtails maken idd veel lawaai met name om 630 in de morgen.... maar ook dat hoort bij deze locatie .
Magico, tranquilo.
Lovely place very quiet and relaxing the monkeys were beautiful
Only thing I would say is be prepared for the steep walk up to the cabins wouldnt suit people with walking difficulties and the walk to walking street
De badkamer was zalig groot
De locatie enkel met de boot bereikbaar. Zeer vervelend
Дуже сподобалось розташування, добиратись неважко. Смачна та разноманітна їжа, гарна територія та басейн. Було тихо та затишно. Номер виглядає чудово, багато простору. Я повернусь сюди ще раз точно.
Amazing hotel, so secluded! Good comfy beds and good breakfast
Just a little bit hidden away but not much can be done about that
I loved the view, the pool view, living in the jongel otentik room very unique Privet beach beautifully
It was very far from everything, alot to walk, the last hotel on the hill. The bed was very baddd
Wunderschönes Hotel mit echter Dschungelatmosphäre – so, wie Thailand früher einmal war. Die Baumhäuser und Holzelemente geben dem Ort einen ganz besonderen Charme. Der Pool war traumhaft und der ruhige Strand perfekt zum Entspannen. Absolute Empfehlung für alle, die Natur und Ruhe lieben.
Die Lage ist eher etwas abgelegen, was für Ruhe sorgt. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und kleinere Restaurants kann man aber in etwa 10–15 Minuten gut zu Fuß erreichen. Allerdings gibt es leider auch einige Minuspunkte. Die Longtail-Boote waren teilweise bis mitten in der Nacht sehr laut, sodass an richtige Nachtruhe kaum zu denken war. Die Klimaanlage wirkte ziemlich veraltet und hat nur sehr langsam gekühlt. Außerdem waren die Holzböden extrem quietschig – selbst im eigenen Bungalow hat man jede Bewegung gespürt und gehört. Auch das Essen war leider nicht ganz mein Geschmack, da viele Gerichte für mich deutlich zu süß waren. Insgesamt trotzdem ein besonderer Ort mit viel Charme, aber mit einigen Punkten, die den Aufenthalt etwas beeinträchtigt haben
Kamer excellent, receptie ook erg goed
Ontbijt was goed, diner zeer matig
Lovely jungle environment with nice views across the water. The kitchen does a good job at reasonable prices.
If one is looking for a peaceful environment, know that this location is close to where many long-tail boats go by all day and into the evenings. While there is a certain romance to them, their un-muffled engines throw out a lot of sound across the water.
Le personnel très sympa et disponible, l’emplacement paradisiaque, le petit déjeuner très bon
À savoir qu’il faut un peu marcher pour se rendre à l’hôtel
Godt og venligt personale. Gå afstand til byen.
Der mangler fitness. Aircondition mangler power.
Property was amazing loved how out of the way it is surrounded by natural beauty amazing hotel one of my favourite in Thailand
Only thing I didn’t like not really enough signs around showing where the room and reception pool etc but that’s not a big problem was still amazing
Erg mooie omgeving. Leuk huisje. Vriendelijk personeel.
Hele klim om bij huisje te komen. Konden ‘s avonds geen drankje drinken (hadden alleen bier). Best afgelegen, stuk lopen naar de winkels etc. Ontbijt tot 10 maar voor 10en werd er al opgeruimd. Om half 10 werden er al geen pannenkoeken meer gemaakt. Geen cappuccino uit apparaat.
Nice location, a bit removed from the main action but with nice views in the jungle.
It has seen better days and could do with a little revamp.
breakfast is good enough, stuff is kind and responsive
The only thing we liked about our stay ( we lasted only 1 hour ) was that Kayaks were available and you can rent them to suicide as staying in such a place feels like hell.
Far away from the rest of the world, you are forced to take a boat to move around as the only connection to the Railay area was a dangerous path that if crossed by night could get you some broken bones probably. The A.C in the rooms barely working, the sink wasn’t sinking and the shower was dirty af. The restaurant was ok, not what you expect from such a resort, the rooms are very uncomfortable to reach. The beach is dirty, full of bottles and other stuff. Not a sandy beach either, full of rocks. It’s probably made for couple but even in that case, unless you wanna enjoy your full vacation by walking minutes to get to your room that doesn’t even cool you down, go anywhere else. Oh, the pool was okay, very small, not like the pretty pool you see in the pictures! They didn’t give us a refund on the next days even if we left after only one hour basically, we don’t care about that.
Piscine, plage privée, dans la nature
Literie trop dur, planche en bois, pas de sommier, la plage de railay et les restaurant sont assez éloigné, la plage de railay n'a pas de douche
This property is in a fantastic location next to West Railay beach. The rooms are large and very clean, and there is also a seating area in the front garden outside the room, which was very peaceful and pleasant. Good value for money and i wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again
Beautiful secluded and quiet! Loved getting away from all the people! Loved waking up to the sounds of nature in the jungle! Loved watching the monkeys come through in the morning!The pool was very refreshing and actually cooled you off! Delicious breakfast with wonderful variety! Watched a beautiful sunrise on the beach.
Warning! This resort is built on a steep hillside, hiking up the steep paved path to our hut on the far end was no joke! Plan ahead for less trips back and forth to your room!
