Our Opinion:
On of the best Resorts in the Krabi Region. The amazing landscape takes your breath away. Nature gave this Krabi boutique hotel three white-sand beaches and cinematic limestone cliff-sides. Rayavadee’s location amongst Krabi Marine National Park ensures guests can enjoy a range of activities that aren’t available at most other resorts.
