It's a great place. I swam on it from a nearby bay (there is a secluded hotel there).
Very beautiful views. Gorgeous beach, shore.
There are cafes, shade, a place to relax.
But you have to understand that staying here in a hotel, you are practically on a desert island. It's not realistic to get out anywhere. There is no land road!
I didn't go far along the beach, I didn't have time.
I saw live monkeys rampaging on the roofs of buildings.
The sea and the weather were beautiful (May)
I ran through the reviews... why are you people eating in Thai?
If you're looking for love and adventure, you're definitely not here. Railay has its own relaxing atmosphere- on a restaurant street, cafes for different budgets, a souvenir, Rastafarian bars with live music- and you don't have to drink anything there, you can just grab a glass and enjoy live music. The beach - lagoon of the princess is greeted by overhanging rocks- you feel like a grain of sand at this moment, for me, a grotto for desires with members is superfluous there- but it attracts a lot of ladies- they probably ask for a "rich" husband with a lot.... With a wallet , or at least a thick one . I recommend walking to the middle of the beach, where you can go to the cliff at low tide. Around the bend, at the end of the beach, there is privacy - just you, the rocks, the purest sand and the sea. At low tide, you can also walk along the rocks and take pictures. You can also sail to this beach by kayak, renting it on the main beach, in this case you will have a lot of impressions.
Hotels are the only one, probably the most decent hotel On the beach of princesses - the cost starts from 50 per day, the rest have some nuances: there are expensive hotels, but with a really good view - chic rooms, everything is expensive and rich, live music in the evenings. There are hotels off the beach with stunning views of the cliffs, but the rooms need renovation. There are very green hotels, the number of rooms is different. Everything is relative.... Krabi, namely Railay, is a very cool place, I advise you to stay there for 3/4 days- lie on the purest sand, swim in the emerald sea, look at the rocks / feel like something very small under the majestic cliffs
A great and exotic place to relax! You can always find a place to eat delicious food, a good salon with Thai massage, a rich market, many different shops and even sun beds near the cafe are available! I recommend you to visit at least once
