When we checked in to the Sand Sea resort I was pleased overall with the accommodations. The location is central and the pools are a nice addition to the facilities. However, I have never stayed in a hotel in which the staff was so unprofessional. Furthermore, it wasn't the general staff, but instead 2 different managers. Perhaps the most notable... More

Railay Beach is stunning and an absolute must do when in Thailand. We visited Railay 5 years ago and stayed at one of the cheaper resorts on the other side of the Island. Sand Sea is a good option as it is on the better side and in the low season is quite affordable. We took advantage of a THB1500... More

Very nice hotel. There are 2 types of bungalows: brand new and old. I was in one of the older. It was clean, no bugs/insects and very confortable. If I had to go again I would ask for the newer ones. The food in the restaurant was really good and the staff super helpful.

There are two types of bungalows. The older ones look like the typical holiday style bungalows and are a little bit outdated. The newer bungalows are under construction and look real nice but are much more expensive. The older bungalows are large in size, with tiled floors. The aircon does not do the job, because it is too small to... More

I will never wont to pay for that full price in high season. Staff not much English speaking. Toilets/Bathroom stinks - some days more some days... More

We initially planned to stay in Railey for 2 nights but love it so much we stayed for 5! The hotel itself is average but is in a great location on the best beach. We got upgraded from a bungalow to a grand deluxe room because there was an ant infestation but once we moved we were happy. The breakfast... More

We just spent 6 wonderful nites of total relaxation at Sand Sea right in the middle of Railay Beach on the beach. The location was the best there is in Railay West and the bungalows along the inner garden courtyard, particularly those by the back pool, are really wonderful overlooking the Railay cliffs with swaying palm trees. It is the... More

The hotel is situated on the beachfront and is an easy walk from where the boat to Railay drops you off. The hotel seemed like it was undergoing either an expansion or a retrofit; the room we stayed in was an older twin room. The beds were comfortable and clean. The bathroom had the normal soap and shampoo amenities. There... More

Wow. That's about all I can say about Railay Beach. The views here are absolutely amazing! Sand Sea was a cute little resort. I had a very nice stay and you can't beat the price! Rooms were clean and comfortable. No WiFi in the rooms, but there is at the restaurant. Be aware, no alcohol is sold at this resort.... More

My family and I had a great holiday at Sand and Sea. We were given cabins adjacent to the new pool and my grandson thoroughly enjoyed himself. We ate dinner at the hotel and the meals were very - good food and great prices. The breakfast was very nice and the staff very helpful. I am looking forward to returning.
