"An absolutely beautiful property, very chilled and peaceful. Staff are wonderful and accommodating. The food is wonderful. Lots of options to choose from at the breakfast buffet. Dinner and lunch options are also great. The local village is less than 5 minutes walk from the resort and well worth checking out for dinner, drinks, souvenirs or general supplies."

This hotel was absolutely stunning. Frankly, I am not used to the level of care we received. It is clear to me now why Layana is ranked the #1 hotel on the island. Absolutely gorgeous grounds, insanely good food, and top-notch attention to detail. Perfection!!

We had a FANTASTIC time at Rayavadee! Throughout our travels in Thailand, we stayed at all 5 star hotels and resorts, but this was by far our favorite. When you arrive, it's as if you are arriving at Fantasy Island. We were mainly going to relax, and our customer representative Julian made sure that everything was as we wanted it. Our villa was perfect in everyway. The food at all the restaurants was wonderful. The spa was superb. The pool was great. There are three beaches (two for swimming),...

The Ban Sainai was like staying on a tropical island. It is very spread out, but the staff were always ready to drive you from your room to the pool or reception area. The breakfasts were very good as were the meals at the pool. The pool was absolutely gorgeous and we spent plenty of time there. The resort has a regular shuttle schedule to take you to the beach. This was an awesome experience to stay at the Ban Sainai.

Amazing stay here at this beautiful and luxurious 5 star resort. Pancake at the spa took great care of me and I felt so relaxed after the treatment. Crystal clear water and white sand await you here. The pools were great as well especially the fun pool. The staff were all very friendly and very attentive. The breakfast was amazing each morning with so many great options to choose from. Our villa was literally brand new and so clean and modern. AC worked great which is a must during the heat...

The property is beautiful and the rooms are comfortable and well maintained. The beachfront property sometimes sits right on the water as twice a day (10am-3pm) and evening/night high tide brings water to the steps of the hotel which is a stunning sight, allowing for even closer swimming and kayaking around island that forms in front. Most impressive is how attentive the staff are, keeping tabs on when we leave, what trips we did (we booked our own but they can help), when we leave. If arriving...

OMG! What is not to like?! This property was beyond stunning!! Surrounded by lush beauty. Safe area to walk around for an early morning coffee and just sit with the locals. Walking distance to beach and food and shops.
The hotel itself was beautiful. Pool a lovely welcome after a day in the heat. Staff were beyond friendly and helpful and they remember you daily. Greeted with a juice upon arrival. Food was delicious. Everything was perfect and the best amenities during our trip to...

We loved the hospitality! My husband actually got sick in the middle of the trip and had to go to the hospital. They were very accommodating, including picking me up at strange hours from the hospital, giving us extra food and water when we were resting, and making sure our room was cleaned in plenty or time.

Even though I travelled a lot around the world, but this is the first time I am taking some time to write a review about this hotel.
I visited krabi June this year, at that time some how its less crowded at the hotel. Its a huge place with nice big rooms, very clean. You may not get beach/ocean view in any of the hotel rooms, but it is easily accessible. Pool is very nice. Beach is very clean with white sands. There are no hotels around this one, so you don't find this beach crowded at all....

From check-in to checkout our experience was fantastic. Great location. Staff was amazing. Rooms were very nice with walk out to pool. Definitely recommend!

We loved the location, the staff, and the room! Our only minor issue was the shower not getting warm enough and a kind of mid shower head, but a minor inconvenience for the greatness of this hotel. We would stay again 1000%.

We had a great stay at this hotel. We got the limestone cliff view. Staff were wonderful and helpful. The breakfast buffet was really good. The food was a little different every day. The pool had a great vibe with a nice bar and good music. Great value for this area.
