Great location, right on Railay Beach. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Room was adequate except the smell in the bathroom during certain part of the day. Food is good and it was near stores and restaurants. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

What a lovely resort, right on the beach and next door to "walking street" which has many options for bars, restaurants and shops (and ATM's). Although it is next door no issue with noise. Staff very helpful, a very relaxed stay. This resort is rather unique as the only way to it is by boat which made it very special for us. You can see monkeys, lizards and small toucans. Hired a canoe from the resort and visited adjoining beaches - very recommended. Resort arranged trips for us at very reasonable rates.

Varana Hotel Krabi has the potential to be a wonderful hotel. However, during my stay there it was evident that the hotel was simply not ready -- not that the hotel rooms are not fully built (they are and they are wonderful), more so the activity areas. Multiple fitness/health areas were still under construction, there were three different schedules for activities that never matched, some of the "fitness courses" were either closed or had not been built, and every activity had an additional fee if you wanted to partake. While I understand that this may be because I visited during the low season, the lack of a "complete" hotel should have been stated. The hotel is just not ready for visitors who want to take advantage of the different offerings that Varana advertises.

Pros - Very relaxing - Away from hustle of town - Quiet - Nice food - Great pool Cons - Dirty towels with stains on - The huts you stay in are very thin walled, so you will hear the wildlife running around above you - Shuttle up to room can be a wait - No alcohol site

⸻ Anana was an incredible place to stay. Its location, slightly outside the main town, turned out to be perfect for us. The free transportation they provided made getting to the town and the boats easy and convenient. We truly enjoyed our time here—it was an amazing experience from start to finish. A huge thank you to all the staff for their outstanding service. We would absolutely love to stay here again!
