Book Cheap Hotels in Railay Beach

This is one of the best hotels I've ever experienced! The staff is friendly and helpful, the pool is awesome, the rooms are spacious and clean, the grounds are very attractive, and the breakfast is killer! Only extremely positive things to say about Avatar. I'm looking forward to staying at Avatar again in the future!

Nice, quiet poolside accommodations. Excellent quality boutique with a pool. The staff are incredible and super friendly. It is very centrally located to many neighborhoods. I would stay in again in a second.

Ok Kitty who seems to be in management was amazing and so sweet. We originally booked a ‘superior’ room and is wasn’t great. It was basically staying in a basement. After 2 nights of that, we upgraded and got a ‘panarama’ room and it was well worth it. $1500 baht which is basically like $50 US dollars per night. Do not make the same mistake we did. The WiFi is not great but hotel staff and cleanliness was better than expected.

The hotel room DID NOT look like the pictures on line. I felt deceived. When I called the front desk to let them know how disappointed I was, they moved me to an upstairs room- it looked exactly the same. No iron or iron board No (gift) toiletries offered until the next day The mattress and pillow were both hard (some might like that- not me) The TV did not work, we had to call for someone to fix it- two different times! The safe was broken and could only work with a key- makes me think (who’s got a spare? Are my things actually safe from theft?) The balcony had mildew on the concrete The shower had a bit of mildew under the soap dispenser; other than that- most of the room was pretty clean

I stayed at the Centara Grand Resort from 11-23 November 2018 in room 1201. This wasn’t my first choice as we were staying somewhere else that we didn’t like and booked at the Centara at short notice. Centara’s property along a tiny beach line with a backdrop of towering stone wall mountain at the other end of Krabi is majestic in appearance. It is very beautiful, scenic and exclusive. You can only get there by speed boat that runs from Nopparat Thara Pier every 30 minutes from 6am to midnight; and every hour from the hotel pier. Another way to get there is to walk along the beach passing the Ao Nang Seafood restaurant the lady-boy show and bar area and head down to the end of the beach and walking up into a trail called the Monkey Trail. There is no road cut to Centara which keeps it somewhat isolated from the crowds and tourists. I would give Centara 5 stars for creating the atmosphere of a perfect holiday with its beach, tropical garden, waterfall, and quaint villas. Everything looked perfect in terms of the landscape and architecture. I cannot speak for all rooms on the property, but I can say that room 1201 was lovely, but in need for upgrading. I could see there were lots of patch work of areas they were fixing or covering. ROOM: Overhead shower didn’t work, bed looked strange in the middle of the room and the side lamps had mold or were stained with something. The rooms seemed like it needed upgrading and was a much older room.

loved it and will return anytime I am on Koh Yao Yai
