Wow, what a treat.
We only stayed one night, however the second we got there we asked if there was availability for a second night.
Firstly we got the shared bus shared boat airport pick up option which was great and efficient.
The check in process was then very smooth and we were shown to our room. The grounds are stunning and the rooms also. The bed is the comfiest bed I have ever slept in.
Once we settled in we went to all the beaches and the pool and all are amazing.
We couldn’t get in the grotto in the evening as there was a wedding but we went for lunch and it was beautiful. The breakfast was lovely also. I can honestly say we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would 100% return!

We were welcomed with a refreshing drink & cold towel to cool off. We had an amazing 2 story villa. All of the rooms have a beautiful jungle-like scenery that is really well maintained. We saw monkeys for picture taking. The staff were all very kind, the food was incredible. The pool was absolutely breathtaking. When we went a short distance to Rilay beach we were allowed to use the Kayaks & paddle boards. We fell in love with Krabi & will be returning to Rayavadee again, hopefully soon.

Everything about Rayavadee was magical. A beautiful resort with fabulous service. We loved every minute of our time here. We will be thinking about our stay here, and the people we met, for a very long time. Hope to return again soon!

Our kid was really ill the duration of our 3 day stay so was abit of a nightmare we couldnt get the full experience out it , however this hotel location is stunning, luna was a great help in arranging anything wee needed including taxi back to phuket airport ect.. I will go back here again in future. The hotel is extremely chill not really music or that on during the day mostly people reading ect.. beach is more livelyish there daily taxiboats bringing people in. I would say this is more like a honeymoon resort than for kids that said though there was a few kids about. there is the spa, gym, rock climbing ' kayaking' snorkling, cave and bat trecking ect. when we first arrived we where abit freaked out with the jungle setting as we did not know what was flying about lol but the next day we where fine didnt see anything we where scared off lol. We went to the grotto restraunt which we had to leave early but it is set in a stunning location on the beach the food was decent aswell nothing to rave home about but it was nice and cant really beat the views. room service laundry' golfcarts to take you about are there in a heartbeat also.

Absolutely wonderful stay. The place is lovely and you are guaranteed to see monkeys, lizards and squirrels within the hotel area, which was a unique experience for us. The service of the staff is exceptional. The private pavillion is great and the bed the biggest I have ever slept in. The beaches are nice and busy with day-tourists, and there is a lively area nearby for a dinner or drink in the evening. We would come back anytime.

This is an amazing place with outstanding food and service. You will not want to leave the pool or the property. I will definitely return. 10/10.

fantastic hotel/resort. awesome pool at railway beach. my only complaint is the amount of trash floating in the oceans and washing up. this is a Thailand problem and not just the resort to be clear. Imagine you're swimming in the most gorgeous beach on the planet and a plastic bag or rope tangles around your body. Have Chang sponsor an event, free beer in exchange for trash clean up. It will be gone in 2 days. The trash isn't from beach goers littering, seems to be from all the commerce and stuff falling overboard from the long boats. Please clean this up, it would make the experience flawless.

This is just a lovely place. From the rooms, the beaches, the service, the food, the landscaping: just about everything is perfect. The two of us stayed in Deluxe Pavilion 309; this had a nice view of the greenery around us from the 2nd floor large window.
We preferred not to sit in the patio area on the 1st floor because of a lack of privacy. The two main beaches (Phranang and Railay) are both lovely, we preferred swimming in Phranang and walked on both of them, Phranang was about a 10 minute walk for us and Railay about a 5 minute walk.
The walks through the property are just lovely, they have done a fantastic job of landscaping with all kind of tropical plants, but we also took advantage of the golf cart rides when it was raining.
The breakfast (which is included) is served till 11 am and has a lot of nice a la carte and buffet style options. We didn't go the Grotto (did not look so special to us and seemed overpriced), but ate at the other two hotel restaurants: Krua Phranang and Raitalay Terrace; both were excellent (and had lovely views of the beach) and we also enjoyed the cocktails at the 4-6 pm happy hour at Raitalay Terrace.
The swimming pool is lovely and also has a great veiw of Railay beach.
The service at Rayavadee was just exceptional; we want to give a shout out to Joy, who was our server during breakfast, she was just fantastic.
We were here during the off-season, the prices are a little lower, and it was still wonderful despite some rain.

This resort was excellent! Very unique property with individual bungalows in the forest/jungle. Much better than traditional style hotel. Many places to eat in the resort & at other resorts next to Rayavadee. All within walking distance. Everything was very clean & the staff was awesome. Extremely friendly & helpful!

Restaurant food is delicious

This resort is absolutely beautiful. It is a resort in a jungle so you have access to the monkey life all around you. The staff is accommodating and friendly. They were helpful and answered all of our questions. The pool over looks the beach so the sunset/sunrise there is phenomenal. I want to say thank you to rayavadee for making our honeymoon amazing.
Only thing I would suggest is to update your facilities, I felt like the rooms/bathrooms could be a little updated.

A luxurious villa in paradise. The “pavilions” are spacious, thoughtfully designed, well decorated and beautifully maintained. The staff could not have been more welcoming or helpful. And be sure to read the guide to the gardens - a delight for any armchair botanist.

What an amazing stay at Rayavadee.
The hotel is wonderful. The service outstanding. The food is so delicious. 3 beaches to enjoy.
What impressed me the most was the detail they put on everything, like food presentation, small treats they give you, room decorations and so on.

This is somewhere I will be coming again. The perfect get away to simply unplug from the rest of the world and just relax. The beaches are beautiful, the staff extremely attentive and helpful. The food as well is top notch!

Too expensive for the customer service.
the infamous Thailand "land of smiles" is missing
The property itself and pool is nice but the rest leaves much to be desired
Much better hotels to go to, we checked out early to change hotels which I have never done in 20 years
We had several issues with the customer service a few are
1. Incorrect delivery or breakfast American breakfast was half delivered and then 20 min later comes the other half
2. Buggy took 15-20 min to arrive so we had to walk
3. Staff at reception not well trained and impolite. Where are the smiles gone?
4. Customer service at Grotto was average even during lunch time.
5. No proper signs for rooms so difficult to walk around. The signs can be much more prominent.
Very expensive for the customer service. Average food.
The Thai food is much better just walking a few min from the hotel and at 1/4th the cost!

Second stay, still a great location but service and food standard has slipped a bit. Breakfast was no where near as good as before and very crowded, it was a bit of a zoo. Stayed at 10 hotels over 7 weeks. This was he most expensive but we rated our stay 8th, it should have been 1st going on price. Room and hotel facilities are excellent. location is magical but was not value for money compared to many of the other 5 and 4 star hotels we stayed at this trip.
2 bags wheels damaged on departure and buggy not giving us a lift on the long pier at Krabi topped off the disappointment.
