Out of all the many islands and mainland locations we visited in Thailand 'Railey'was on balance the best place we stopped off at:
- There's a very nice beach if your willing to walk for 10 minutes
- Amazing rock formations in every direction
- Trekking opportunities through the forested areas
- Clear water with plenty of marine life (however, when in the water - always keep one eye on the long tail boats flying very closly by!)
- Easy hire of kayaks for exploring further afield
- Very entertaining monkeys (best seen at 4pm to dusk)
Anyway, what about the hotel? Well it's best described as average. Having said that - what we found was all hotels around the Sand Sea Resort were clones of each other - all offering the same level of service.
In brief, the bad things about the Sand Sea were:
- Sewege smells would enter the bathroom though the untrapped drains
- Staff are not helpful (see if you can get one of the reception staff to move more than 6 feet from there desk !)
- Small Swimming Pool is full of children (and inflatable toys !)
- Breakfast consisted of yesterdays left-overs, with the addition of a few flys, and the omission of any proper cooking - The monkey's wouldn't even eat it!
The good things were:
- Hotel location
- Nice interior of rooms
Having said all that, please refer to the top of my review. Railey is a great place to visit, and staying at a place like Sand Sea Resort is just an unfortunate necesity you might have to experience along with it!

Hotel location is very nice. The beach with large rocks surrounding is great. The pool area is nice. We had the best room categorie. The room was quite spacy and was ok. Service ok. Boatdriver did took us and several other guests not at Ao nang main boat stop as he told us. Ask before hand if he really is going to Ao nang Center and pay after you are arriving at the place you wish.

A fantastic resort. The only negative comment i have is regarding the buffet breakfast. They could improve the selection of food. I complained about the cut fruits being left open (without being covered) and ants running all over it to the manager however nothing was actually done about it. But other than that i would definetely return back again.

We were very impressed with the Sand Sea Resort, the bungalows were fantastic and set among some lovely gardens.
The pool was great and the beach was just simply beautiful. However, we were disappointed with the breakfast, but all in all, we would recommend staying here.
