Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were super cozy, clean, and the bed was really comfy, but the high humidity made it quite uncomfortable at night. The bamboo-made rooms offer a unique Thai environment but come with considerations due to the surroundings.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, nestled in a serene area close to the beach, and the rooms were comfortable despite the heat. Climbing up a few stairs was worth it for the breathtaking views. The service was exceptional, with friendly staff always ready to assist. However, the dining experience left something to be desired with a simple, complimentary breakfast.

What a gem of a place! The hotel offers amazing rooms perfect for 3 people with astonishing beds and views. Spacious and located on the hillside, a bit away from the main village, but the breakfast spot overlooking the sea makes it worth it. A hidden treasure on the outskirts of Railay.
