Rayavadee

Rufaro Chikwana

It is difficult to put into words just how special Rayavadee became to us. We came here not only for a holiday, but to celebrate one of the most important moments of our lives – our wedding – and we left with memories that we will treasure forever. From the moment we arrived, there was something incredibly special about Rayavadee. The surroundings are breathtaking, but what truly sets this place apart is the warmth, kindness and attention to detail from the people who work here. We stayed both around our wedding celebrations and afterwards, and throughout our time there we felt genuinely looked after. We especially have to mention Pinanong, our wedding coordinator, who was absolutely incredible. From the months of planning beforehand to the wedding itself, she was patient, attentive, reassuring and always willing to help. Planning a destination wedding from the UK could easily have been overwhelming, but Pinanong made us feel that everything was under control. And then came the wedding day. Her execution was exceptional. Seeing everything we had discussed and planned for months come together so beautifully was quite emotional. Every detail had been considered, everything flowed seamlessly, and we were able to be completely present with each other, our families and our friends rather than worrying about logistics. Behind such an effortless day was clearly an enormous amount of work, and we will always be grateful to her for that. Our guests were equally blown away. From the spectacular setting and beautiful food to the professionalism and warmth of the staff, so many of them commented on what an extraordinary place we had chosen. What makes Rayavadee particularly special to us now is that it no longer feels like simply a resort we visited. It is where we celebrated our marriage, where our families and friends came together from different parts of the world, and where some of our happiest memories were made. Leaving was genuinely emotional because Rayavadee had started to feel like our little home in Thailand. To Pinanong and the entire Rayavadee team: thank you. Thank you for taking such good care of us, for making our wedding everything we hoped it would be, and for giving us memories we will carry with us for the rest of our lives. We know this won't be our last visit. Rayavadee will always hold a very special place in our hearts. ❤️ Rufaro & Greg

This hotel is the perfect mix of luxury and adventure. The property is absolutely stunning—the grounds are so expansive and beautifully designed that exploring them is part of the experience. Even though the resort is large, it never feels crowded, and the rooms are thoughtfully spaced out, giving everything a private, secluded feel. The pool area is fantastic, and the beach is truly spectacular. One of our favorite parts was having early morning access to the beach before the tour boats arrived, making it feel like our own private paradise. What really sets this place apart, though, is the staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely cared about making our stay special. No matter what we needed, it was handled quickly and effortlessly. Combined with the excellent food, this was one of those rare hotels that exceeded our expectations in every way. We can’t wait to come back.

We had an amazing stay at Rayavadee and can recommend this beautiful resort. The hotel complex is incredibly spacious and surrounded by breathtaking nature, with access to three stunning beaches that make the location truly unique. We arrived with the complimentary boat shuttle service, which was perfectly organized and made the arrival experience feel very special from the beginning. Our bungalow was beautifully designed, very comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. We also really appreciated the twice-daily housekeeping service, which kept everything perfectly clean and made the stay feel even more luxurious. One thing we especially appreciated was how much attention the security staff paid to the privacy and safety of the guests. Throughout the entire resort, we always felt comfortable and well taken care of. The staff in general were exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and attentive. Their warm hospitality made our vacation even more memorable. One thing to keep in mind is that, depending on the season, there can be quite a lot of mosquitoes due to the tropical surroundings. Also, while the beach areas are absolutely stunning, some parts of the outdoor garden area are not quite as beautiful because of the small ponds, where the water occasionally seemed a bit stagnant and did not always smell very pleasant. Overall, Rayavadee is still a paradise-like resort and the perfect place for a luxurious and peaceful getaway in Krabi.

Wonderful stay – we’ll definitely be back! Rayavadee is a fantastic hotel in a truly beautiful and unique setting. The atmosphere is wonderful, the rooms are very comfortable, although a little tight for a family of five, and the level of service is exceptionally high. We have stayed here before and feel that the breakfast used to be better, with a wider variety and selection of high-quality, delicious products. This is one area where we would love to see the hotel return to the standard and abundance we remember from previous visits. Overall, we are extremely happy with our stay. Rayavadee remains a very special place for our family, and we will happily return whenever we have the opportunity. Highly recommended!
