Railay Beach Holidays from £706

Had a wonderful stay at this hotel. Clean, wonderful staff and in a great area. Would definitely stay here again!

Varana Hotel Krabi has the potential to be a wonderful hotel. However, during my stay there it was evident that the hotel was simply not ready -- not that the hotel rooms are not fully built (they are and they are wonderful), more so the activity areas. Multiple fitness/health areas were still under construction, there were three different schedules for activities that never matched, some of the "fitness courses" were either closed or had not been built, and every activity had an additional fee if you wanted to partake. While I understand that this may be because I visited during the low season, the lack of a "complete" hotel should have been stated. The hotel is just not ready for visitors who want to take advantage of the different offerings that Varana advertises.

Incredible accommodation of the highest standard. Very helpful staff and owner. We woke on our second day to watch the monkies in the treetops around us. We loved the local bars/restaurants on the beach front across the road.

What a lovely resort, right on the beach and next door to "walking street" which has many options for bars, restaurants and shops (and ATM's). Although it is next door no issue with noise. Staff very helpful, a very relaxed stay. This resort is rather unique as the only way to it is by boat which made it very special for us. You can see monkeys, lizards and small toucans. Hired a canoe from the resort and visited adjoining beaches - very recommended. Resort arranged trips for us at very reasonable rates.

Nice hotel and great concept. The water in the shower was just lukewarm and you could not get it any hotter. Shuttle bus can be slow especially if you are running late. I would stay again
