5-star resort in Krabi Marine National Park with three private-access beaches
Accommodations & Grounds
Rayavadee offers free-standing 2-storey pavilions and beachfront pool villas set among 250 types of plants and native wildlife, including monkeys and exotic birds. Each pavilion has a terrace, flat-screen TV, and minibar, while the pool villas include a private plunge pool. The resort's grounds are home to dusky leaf monkeys, macaques, monitor lizards, and hornbills, with marked walking paths through the lush gardens.
Dining
The hotel operates four dining venues: Raya Dining serves fresh lobster and Western dishes, Krua Phranang offers traditional Thai fare, and Raitalay Terrace provides international cuisine with views of Railay Beach. A fourth restaurant (the Grotto) is set inside a limestone cave overlooking Phra Nang Beach, requiring advance reservations and pre-ordering. Rayavadee Boutique, Krabi's only five-star shopping experience, sells designer items and souvenirs, including the same bath amenities used in the rooms.
Spa & Wellness
The Rayavadee Spa provides massages, facials, and body treatments using ancient Thai therapies in a treatment room with a hand-carved monkey-shaped massage table. An outdoor salt-water infinity pool with sun loungers and pool/beach towels overlooks Railay Beach, while a fitness center, sauna, and steam room are available. The spa also offers a spa lounge/relaxation area and foot bath, with packages that include daily yoga sessions and wellness activities.
Activities & Family
The resort's Activities Center arranges private excursions by speedboat to Bamboo Island (25 minutes away) and Phi Phi Island (35 minutes), plus guided bat cave treks and viewpoint climbs. For families, the Just for Kids program introduces Thai culture through dedicated sessions led by staff such as Smile, with activities that include crab hunting and cooking. Other on-site facilities include two tennis courts, a table tennis area, water sports equipment (kayaks, snorkeling gear), and a half-court for soccer.
Location & Sustainability
Rayavadee sits on the Phranang Peninsula, surrounded on three sides by Railay Beach, Phra Nang Beach, and Nam Mao Beach, all within Krabi Marine National Park and accessible only by boat. The resort operates its own zero-discharge water treatment system and follows eco-friendly practices to protect the surrounding forest and wildlife. Boat transfers from Krabi Airport take 20 minutes by car to the pier, then another 20 minutes by speedboat; private vehicles and tractors handle luggage and guest transport on the beach.
