Railei Beach Club

Top choice in Railay


At the northern end of the beach, hidden in forested grounds that stretch back to luscious limestone cliffs, is this collection of Thai-style homes for six to eight people, rented out on behalf of absent owners. They come with patios, kitchens and amenities, and there are also a few smaller but impeccably stylish dark-wood doubles. Only a few have air-con.

It’s a superb, unique deal set in a romantic location; book well ahead. In-house chefs prepare fresh Thai meals on request.
