Pros:

Lovely, affordable place to stay, particularly if you're looking for best comfort for value. Not a fancy high-end resort, but rooms are very comfortable, clean and well-designed (we were in the Grand Deluxe Bungalow), and staff are friendly and attentive. Bonus for the two cute resort puppies!

Pros:

Ants! I had ants crawling all over my toothbrush. It would be nice if they could control the pests. Otherwise, the room was nice. Its located on a somewhat "low rent" district of Railay but nothing is far of a walk. Just be aware that you need to climb a few flights of stairs to get up there (53 steps). Luckily they have a handy funicular to carry your bags up. Reception hours are limited to 8a-8p so plan accordingly. Because it's on the east side you need to walk to the west side for sunset views. Also the beach on this side has a really impactful tide so at low tide its like a giant mud field and not very 'vibey'.

Pros:

The staff were nice! But the property is best fit for a very cheap stay for young people looking to explore or budget vacations.
I liked the place well enough however I didn’t expect the the massive flight of stairs you had to climb, the tiny shower, or the bungalow I stayed in to have holes you can see day light through. The pool is quite small too BUT the staff is great and all in all I never intended to stay a lot of time at the resort anyway. It was good enough to sleep in.

Pros:

Such a serene place, just generally just has the nicest relaxed antmosphere and the staff are so so sweet! The rooms are lovely and very clean. Probably one of my favourite places I have stayed at, can’t recommend enough. Love the rooftop balconies looking out to the mountain faces.

The best staff we’ve encountered so far in Thailand - such nice people! They were very accommodating for checking in and out as well. Their restaurant and dining area was wonderful to eat and hang out in. We loved the room, private and modern. All around would recommend!

Pros:

The staff and restaurant were excellent. The rooms, however, were less than comfortable. While most beds in Thailand are hard, this hotel had the hardest by far. I was physically in pain from sleeping on them. Also, the mosquito nets and hammocks were so mildewed they were unusable. Lastly, my niece had a resident mouse in her room.

Pros:

I always love staying at Rapala. It's the only authentic bungalow you can find in Railay and also the cheapest accommodation you can find there. Railay is generally very expensive compared to the rest of Krabi so if you are on a budget this definitely is the place to stay especially if you want something more unique than a standard hotel room.

You get a hammock all to yourself on the balcony (almost no where else provides this in the area), the place even has a small swimming pool. The aircon room also comes with a kettle and coffee, soap and shampoo and a hair dryer. Pretty decent for what you pay.


Things to consider - it's a traditional bungalow set in a jungle like setting so, expect bugs. There is a relatively large staircase to get up to the place so it is not for the mobility challenged.

Will definitely be back.

Pros:

Excellent hotel. It’s rustic with a lot of nature around and the rooms were separate from each other, which give you a lot of privacy. Room was clean and very comfortable. The restaurant’s food was amazing. The staff were really friendly and nice. The view from the restaurant was spectacular and very relaxing. We will definitely go back.
