Blanco Hideout @ Railay

Railay


Opened in 2018, this is the only hostel in Railay. It sits above a steep stairway and has killer views, with dorms that surround a large, inviting pool – perfect for parties. All dorms have private en suites, and the large bunk beds have decent mattresses. The hostel organises pub crawls and boat parties.
