Reviews and Ratings

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Sand Sea Resort boasts a prime location granting easy access to both sides of Railay Beach, which guests appreciate for ferry trips and exploring. With three swimming pools available, there's ample space to relax, and the al fresco breakfast by the beach, featuring fresh eggs cooked to order, is a popular highlight. Some guests have noted that the pathway to breakfast can feel a little long. You can also easily reach a street with affordable restaurants, bars, and shops just 50 meters from the resort, and even spot monkeys in the hotel's trees near Tonsai beach.

Perfect Location with Excellent Amenities

easy access multiple pools friendly staff

The location allowed easy access to both sides (East and West) of the island, very convenient for ferry trips. The resort boasts three swimming pools. I enjoyed that the food could be adapted to a vegetarian version. The staff members were friendly and spoke English well (a big plus for international visitors!).

The pathway to breakfast felt quite long, though golf carts were available for transportation.

This resort is situated excellently. It provides easy access to nearby restaurants and shops. Being near the pier makes it convenient. You can easily enjoy beautiful sunrises and sunsets from the resort (I especially recommend the sunsets!).
