Sand Sea Resort

Railay


One of the few resorts on this sublime beach, this place offers comfortable bungalows, quaint cottages and smart, contemporary rooms with every amenity. There are two peaceful, foliage-enclosed pools, one with karst views, making this a reasonable deal for the location.

The seafood dishes are recommended at its beachfront Sunset Restaurant.
