I have very fond memories of this idyllic retreat. My wife and I were part of an Interpid adventure tour of Southern Thailand. We stayed for two nights at this splended retreat. I enjoyed a very nice G&T at the small bar and Inrecall that the staff wre very friendly indeed. Our thatched room was delightful and the scenery quite... More

I love the look of the place it takes me back to 1989 when I first went to Railay beach. I cannot seem to find out how to book it though. Can anyone help?

It is on the beachfront where you could soak up the sun, read a book away from the maddening crowd. It is a good place for reflection. Stayed for one night, it was a bit quiet for us. I would recommend this place if you have the correct expectation.

After reading the reviews I was excited to get to Dawn of Happiness. And walking through the lush garden setting I was quite happy. We had a delicious lunch in their outdoor restaurant before heading to nearby Railay beach. It's a good thing we didn't have our hearts set on beaching at Ao Nam--it's not a good beach! The tide...

We spent 4D3N in Dawn of Happiness, taking the sea front room with air-cond (1300 bht per night) Though facing the sea, the windows of our room were never opened as there are chair and table and swings just in front of the room and people are hanging around there most of the time. Luckily for the air cond which... More

Best resort where we stayed. Especially the food, great Thai dishes. Also the service, we felt like family, when we checked out, all came, also the kitchen staff. Very quite at night, but this was exactly what we were looking for. Beach is ok, but there are better for swimming. Railey is quite close, just 10min walk & 10 in... More

My boyfriend and I recently stayed at the Dawn of Happiness for 3 nights. We loved our bungalow (#1), which was right on the beach, where we could wake up every morning to a view of the lapping water, the surrounding mountains and fishing boats. There are also little swings and hammocks outside to relax in. During our stay, we... More
