Rayavadee logo

Exclusivity reigns supreme at the five-star Rayavadee, a boutique hotel framed by sheer limestone cliffs and bordered by three of Krabi’s most beautiful white-sand beaches. An idyllic Thai village-style resort of private pavilions and dramatic views over the glistening Phra Nang Peninsula, Rayavadee has well and truly earned its reputation for all-out tropical indulgence.

Perfectly located on the border of Krabi National Marine Park, Rayavadee is an oasis where you can dine in an ancient limestone cave with views of the crystal-clear Andaman Sea at The Grotto, watch the sunset from the ocean-view infinity pool, and find tranquillity at the onsite Rayavadee Spa. Home to four gorgeous restaurants and Eden-worthy tropical gardens, this is a true five-star Thai paradise.

Travelling with friends or family? Upgrade to the Family Pavilion or the incredible Family Pavilion with Pool, both valid for up to four guests.

Incredible stay here, staff welcomes you when you get off the boat. Every single staff member greets you on the grounds. Rooms are fantastic, pool and beach side area is perfect to catch a sunrise. Wildlife surrounds the grounds. Will definitely be coming back, this has been such a memorable stay.

I had the best experience with my wife our honeymoon that we will never forget in this resort. The place is like heaven in earth and location for the hotel is inside the jungle. No bugs inside the room, it was all very clean . The service was so friendly and kind to us all the trip from hello to good bye. And the food for breakfast was great and tasty so many options. You get free activities there like kayaking and snorkeling. I really recommend it this one if you can afford it .

We recently stayed at Rayavadee and were truly impressed by the overall experience. The resort is stunning—its location is one of the most beautiful we've seen, surrounded by breathtaking scenery, lush nature, and vibrant wildlife. The decor and design blend perfectly with the natural surroundings, creating a peaceful and luxurious atmosphere. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming. From the moment we arrived, they were attentive, kind, and genuinely committed to making our stay comfortable. We especially appreciated how the housemaids took care of our pavalion twice a day with meticulous attention to detail—absolutely exceptional service. There were just two downsides to our experience. First, the prices at the restaurants felt quite high, especially considering the food didn’t match the level of the resort. For example, the margarita pizza and burger we had were underwhelming for the price. Second, the bed situation was disappointing—two king-size beds were pushed together, which made for a massive but uncomfortable sleeping experience. Unfortunately, it affected our sleep quality, and we both struggled to rest well throughout our stay. Despite these issues, we loved our time at Rayavadee and would recommend it for the setting, service, and unique atmosphere. With a few adjustments, it could easily be a perfect getaway.

This resort is in a perfect location where guests can enjoy amazing views of the sea, cliffs, and small islands. The landscaping within the resort is also very well maintained, allowing guests to appreciate the tropical forest and local wildlife. The staff are also very friendly and welcoming. HOWEVER, I cannot say that the room condition meets 5-star hotel standards. I completely understand that being surrounded by forest means you might see some ants or small lizards inside. But finding dozens of bugs inside the wardrobe and on my clothes was truly shocking. I'm worried these bugs might have hitched a ride back to my home even though the hotel staff offered to do the laundry. After seeing them crawling on my clothes, I completely lost my appetite and couldn't sleep. The hotel did arrange for cleaning and laundry service, but they did not offer to change the room. I understand you should expect some insects when traveling in Southeast Asia, but not at this level in a 5-star hotel room. I'm not paying two or three times the usual price to sleep with bugs.
