Incredible. Pictures are unable to capture th beauty and relaxing nature of this one in a million gem. If you have the opportunity to visit, or even if you think you do not have time for a visit... Make it happen. You will love it. It was the highlight of our whole month around Thailand. Everything about the venue and the surrounding teeny tiny town is beyond belief. It was perfect. Everything about our short four nights here created memories that will last a lifetime. If you love nature, love relaxation, love the beach, love undiscovered treasure, then come to this incredible place.

The landscape was terrific! It was designed in a way so that the bungalows have privacy. Early in the morning, great for monkey watching. The floors inside were a bit slippery so hadcto watch when walking. The shower took a while to drain n amenitywas just ok. But we had a hreat stay!

Security guard was unwelcoming and unfriendly upon our arrival in West Railay Beach. At registration they assigned an inferior room, claiming it was a “free upgrade”. We insisted to see the original room and it was much nicer so we had to insist that we got it. They were not happy to let us have it. They accused us of stealing umbrellas, which were take by someone at breakfast. Generally very unfriendly staff with immoral policies. I wouldn’t stay here again! Must be owned by some really mean people. The only helpful and friendly member staff was a buggy driver.

Relaxing Villa

Had a great time at Sand Sea in the Sunrise Tropical Villa. It was the perfect space for my wife and I to feel comfortable and relax during our stay. The room was spacious with a nice large bathroom and patio for relaxing. We also appreciated that the resort provided plenty of pool space, amenities like beach towels, and the staff was incredibly friendly. Would highly recommend staying here if visiting Railay.

A wonderful stay in a double twin villa. We stayed in 1009 which is on the east side of the isthmus. It was spacious, the A/C worked great and plenty of outlets that accommodated American plugs. As a side sleeper, the beds were not to my liking - very firm. Shampoo, conditioner and shower gel provided. No wash cloth though, so bring a loofah. Excellent bath and face towel. Hot water kettle with a couple of tea bags and insta coffee. White sugar and powdered creamer provided. Two ceramic coffee cups that likely hold 8-10 oz of water. Our room came with the breakfast buffet which was very tasty. Take advantage of the one curry they'll have in the AM and mix it with scrambled eggs. Trust me. Coffee machine is strong! The airport transfer service is worth the price to save you having to think through the logistics. Depending on where the tide is when you arrive or leave, they make it very easy on you so that you don't need to traverse the long public dock. Our room was dated, and there was construction of a cafe that goes until mid June of 2025 right next to the busiest pool.
