This property and beach are great! I’m not sure it’s the best one but for us it was perfect. It’s a bit overpriced for Thailand in my opinion. Note: there is a huge trash barge that washed up on the shore right in front of the hotel obstructing the view. It’s going to take a lot of time and money to remove it so it’ll be there a while. This post is 8-9-25. The thing is, all the hotels have this problem on Railay beach so it’s not just Sand Sea’s problem. Overall, loved it!

We were fortunate enough to be able to stay for 4 nights at a Poolside Bungalow, right outside 1 of the 3 beautiful pools. Although our bungalow was older it was convenient, clean and comfortable with the best location. From the moment we arrived staff were so friendly and accomodating. We had an issue with the air conditioner and they attended to this at lightning speed. The breakfast was great and of course with amazing beach views. Sand and Sea would suit all, couples young and old, friend groups and families. Could not fault apart from not staying longer!
Loved the mirror!

Best staff! Towing boat atthe beach destroys charm

The staff in the hotel are incredibly kind and helpful, special mention to bellboys which also have a great sense of humour :-) The only thing we didn't like at all is the barge and towing boat at the beach which totally destroys the charm of the place.

This is a pretty nice property right on Railay Beach. So the location is great! It's definitely not the nicest resort I've ever stayed at but overall still worth it especially for the price I paid. The staff was amazing - always helpful, kind, and personable. I wish I would've used the pool area next to the beach and the restaurant because it looked nice.
