Bad restaurant
....
First night, kitchen stock was out. Nothing much left for order form menu. All drinks such as beer was out of stock without the offer from hotel to buy for guests. Guests needed to walk 1 km to buy and carry back to hotel. with this problem, i consider 4-star hotel should not treat the customer like this. Especially, they have their own boat to go to main land and restock. Hot shower wasn't working in one room. All the tree branches blocked sea view even i paid for the seaview room Location is farthest side of the bay, it's quiet and relaxing atmosphere. but not convenient if you need to go buy things from the shop at walking street.

Tranquil and relaxing
Location, food, accessibility
Railay Great View is in a stunning location at the end of Railay East beach, meaning that you don't have the endless stream of tourists traipsing past your hotel like many other resorts do. The food is great and reasonably priced, and the rooms are beautiful and all use natural materials, making them fit into the landscape perfectly. We have now been back to Great View twice and would continue to stay there as it is our favourite place in Krabi. Since our last stay 3 years ago, there is the need for minor maintenance, and we did have a few problems with the staff struggling to speak English. All in all, the best value for money you can find in Krabi!

Stay At Railay Resort
The room was very nice and the view was beautiful
We were in a very beautiful and comfortable room. The setting was amidst trees with a view on the bay. There were two problems however 1. We were not informed in any way about the fact that we needed to take a boat to get from the airport to the resort. The airport shuttle left us on a pier around 9:15 pm. We called the hotel and were informed and it was up to us to hire an independent boat to get to the hotel. It was dark already and we had no idea if any of those boat drivers were honest or reliable. We had no choice but to pay the $20 to get to our hotel. Had we known about this we would have booked an earlier flight and once on the pier a hotel.boat would have picked us up. Apparently our 9:15 arrival at the pier was after hours. Our flight had landed at 7:30 pm. The airport scene in Krabi was very chaotic when it came to getting transportation. Once at the resort , we were relieved at the sight. Everything was beautiful and the view was serene. 2. During the night there was constant coming and going of the long boats and the sound from those motors was quite loud. I would recommend a room facing away from the boat traffic.

Stay here, eat elsewhere.
Views, location*, bungalows
I've been coming here for years. I would probably stay again but with serious reservations. The location is stunning, but is quite a hike to the rest of the area, especially making several jaunts a day. The bungalows are spacious, clean, and comfortable, although you really need to be physically fit to access a great majority of them. The food is abyssmal. I and others have gotten sick almost every time after eating, which begs the question why i keep eating it. I've sent clearly unfresh seafood back! The free breakfast is just horrendous. The pool is lovely, but unattended by any staff. There are mostly very heavy and dilappidated deck loungers, which are difficult and dangerous to move, as they have broken wood and nails protruding. Reception staff is very pleasant, but emails and personal reservation requests go completely unanswered. We spoke Thai so got better service regarding any issues that came up, but I feel for those who cannot. All in all it is a ridiculously beautiful and relaxing place, but a 4 star resort it's not. Low season is a very good value for money. High season..not,so much.

Underwhelmed
The Villa itself was nice, the view was lovely, The bed was comfortable
I found it very difficult to relax with the constant noise from all the travelling boats. The noise carries to the villas given the location of the hotel. This is a constant 'humming' from early in the morning until late at night. It makes it very difficult to relax.

Beautiful Railey
The view, the front desk manager
My Stay was pleasent except for the food. Same selection every day for breakfast nothing was ever warm.It was not the servers fault but the manager should monitor the sevice and get the guests opinions for feedback. I had dinner one night and it was quite late 9:00 we orderd steamed fish and seafood. The fish was cold and tough, the seafood had a awful smell. I tried to explain during checkout and was interigated by the front desk clerk by the name of Au. She took it apon herself to give me grief that i did not go to the front desk and report it immidiatly. She then told me there was nothing they can do and i had to pay for it anyway 1400 Baht. when i requested to see the manager she got really rude and deffensive and made a sceen in front of many other guests. was not a pretty site. I think she scared off two other guests wanting to checkout and they returned 15 minites after the fuss was finished. You could see everybody in the loby was not impressed. The other thing to be aware of is the longtail boats never stop going to and from the piers all day and most of the night so not quite at all.
