The check-in and get to the villa was friendly and fast.We were amazied by the stunning looks of the nature in that area. Seeing the first monkey is special, on the last morning it looked like the whole family came to say goodbye on the front porch and that was feeling a bit different. The restaurant has good food and friendly staff, all halal so no alcohol available, which is no problem. The problem is that the cook has some problem with time management since the appetizer and main come at the same time. Or you get the food and your partner will get it when you are finished. To reduce that a bit we ordered the appetizer first, after finishing that, order agian. The resort is clean, I walked a lot on my bare feet without hurting. The whole of Railay beach area is quiet, except for the shopping and restaurant streets, but in general a perfect place to recharge. All together a place we would like to visit again.

This property and beach are great! I’m not sure it’s the best one but for us it was perfect. It’s a bit overpriced for Thailand in my opinion. Note: there is a huge trash barge that washed up on the shore right in front of the hotel obstructing the view. It’s going to take a lot of time and money to remove it so it’ll be there a while. This post is 8-9-25. The thing is, all the hotels have this problem on Railay beach so it’s not just Sand Sea’s problem. Overall, loved it!

We were fortunate enough to be able to stay for 4 nights at a Poolside Bungalow, right outside 1 of the 3 beautiful pools. Although our bungalow was older it was convenient, clean and comfortable with the best location. From the moment we arrived staff were so friendly and accomodating. We had an issue with the air conditioner and they attended to this at lightning speed. The breakfast was great and of course with amazing beach views. Sand and Sea would suit all, couples young and old, friend groups and families. Could not fault apart from not staying longer!
Loved the mirror!

Best staff! Towing boat atthe beach destroys charm

The staff in the hotel are incredibly kind and helpful, special mention to bellboys which also have a great sense of humour :-) The only thing we didn't like at all is the barge and towing boat at the beach which totally destroys the charm of the place.

This is a pretty nice property right on Railay Beach. So the location is great! It's definitely not the nicest resort I've ever stayed at but overall still worth it especially for the price I paid. The staff was amazing - always helpful, kind, and personable. I wish I would've used the pool area next to the beach and the restaurant because it looked nice.
