Railey Beach Princess Hotel
View of the pool and the resort
Welcome to Railey Princess Resort situated on Railey Beach. The Princess Resort is in the middle of Railey peninsular..
Princess Resort is one of the better hotels on Railey Beach. Almost on par with Railay Bay and a lot better then Diamond Cave. It is good value. Built on a thin sliver of land in the middle of the peninsular, the aspect is surprisingly pleasing. All rooms look out onto the pool, pond and the jungle beyond. Limestone cliffs rising out of the jungle complete the picture.
The facilities are great, and the feedback from customers has been good. The rooms are airy clean and modern and the staff friendly and helpful. One of the better value hotels on Railey Beach.

Location
Railay Princess Hotel is right in the middle of the peninsular. There are many different ways to get there, and it can be a little confusing. People are friendly though, and you can always ask for directions... If you are coming from Railay East/ Sunrise side, the easiest way to get there is to walk through the construction of what used to be Ya Ya's. Princess Hotel is directly behind the construction.
If you are coming from Railay West/ Sunset side, then the easiest way to get there is to walk through Flame Tree restaurant. There is a path behind the restaurant which will take you over a grassy bit, followed by some trees. The hotel is through the trees....
Waree Spa
It is worth mentioning the Waree Spa, because of all the Spa and Massage places around Railay this is one of the most pleasing and pleasantly situated. It is built on the water feature as a wooden open old style spa, and it is beautiful in it's simplicity and style.
The whole experience is not to be missed- It starts with a welcome drink while the girls wash and massage your feet in a refreshing foot bath. You then change into some remarkably comfortable cloths and lie down on a decent massage bed for an hour of bliss. They have a range of massages and treatments- all I'm sure good- I got the Thai massage, and having had many over the years, I can recommend this as one of the better ones. All the therapists are Bangkok trained, experienced, and well very good- It is more expensive then a beach massage, but you get what you pay for- If
you enjoy being pampered in a beautiful setting then
this is not to be missed!
