The property itself is ok beds are very comfortable and clean, breakfast is very basic no variety at all no cereals for kids or pancakes and fir the amount of money we paid it’s not great so I would only give 2 stars to this property, dinner in the restaurant is not great either, but we went outside the resort to eat as it was nicer and a bit cheaper.
The big problem is, it's part of a huge Chinese tour operation now, so any peace and quiet goes out of the window. Was greeted with "nihao" at check in, constant announcements in Chinese, it's just not a pleasant experience. we left a day early because of it. I guess if you are Chinese you will love it here.
The resort itself is nice, the pool is nice and the staff who do speak Thai are friendly.
This was our first trip to Thailand and this island was recommended to us.
Since there aren't many options on the island in terms of hotels, we chose this one. Big mistake.
The location is not bad, could have the potential of a great hotel...but:
- the staff barely speaks English and it's a real challenge to get anything done
- there's a 3% surcharge if you pay by card, which was not specified anywhere in the booking confirmation email
- the room was decrepit. There was a rusty folding bed in the bathroom, blocking what I assume was to be the wardrobe (yes, you are right, it was in the bathroom, next to the toilet); not that I would ever put my clothes in there. The windows and mirrors in the room seemed they have not been cleaned in forever and the door was rusty and had a hole in it, at the bottom. The bathroom smelled like pee. The only good thing was the bed (was comfortable enough) and the fact the AC worked.
- the food at their restaurant (including breakfast) was terrible...and not cheap.
- the island is pretty dirty and their staff contributes to that state. One of the guys picking us up from Patong beach, once finished his smoothie, he threw the empty plastic cup and straw on the side of the dirt road...
Excellent location. Friendly staff. Good accommodations. Poor WiFi coverage in the garden facing bungalows. A small refrigerator would have been appreciated
We stayed there 12 years ago and it was superb. It has now become primarily a base for groups of day trippers from Phuket and,along with all the other resorts on this beautiful island ,overpriced with mediocre food and mediocre service. No assistance with luggage during transfers by boat, while walking through water on beach, or at jetty.No fridge or cold water ,no coffee making facilities,in room. The island itself is strewn with unsightly building rubble. Superb snorkelling.
Das Resort ist schön gelegen und in der Bucht gibt es Korallen und viele Fische zu sehen. Leider ist das Restaurant nicht besonders gut und die Preise völlig überteuert. Das Personal ist relativ unaufmerksam und nicht besonders freundlich. Der Service auch für die Unterkünfte ist relativ dürftig.

Il posto é nel complesso carino, stanno ristrutturando diverse camere, ma la la cosa che mi ha colpito di più sono i varani che girano liberamente come fossero gattini
Nonostante la spiaggia di questo resort sia rocciosa è l’unica dell’isola dove è possibile vedere una quantità enorme di pesci. La piscina è bellissima con vista mare da sopra la cucina. In generale l’ambientazione é bellissima. La stanza é molto bella e spaziosa e rimane negli standard della Thailandia. Forse migliorerei un po’ l’inglese dello staff ma bene o male ci si può capire.
Posto incantevole! Ubicato in mezzo alla natura ha solo bungalow con accesso privato e piccolo patio/ balconcino. Camera semplice ma pulita, mancanza di riassortimento dei prodotti x il bagno, ma viene effettuato il cambio giornaliero degli asciugamani. Buona colazione con influenza asiatica! Baia privata dove si può effettuare il migliore snorkeling dell'isola!! !! Attenzione di sera x muoversi nell'isola si ha bisogno di una torcia poiché non vi è illuminazione!!! Un posto da sogno!!!!

Raya has died
Kävin saarella ensimmäisen kerran 2010..tuolloin rannan korallit olivat vielä elossa ja hienoa katsottavaa ja vesi todella kirkasta. Nyt turistit pilanneet rannan ja korallit kuolleet ja hyvin vähän elämää veden alla.
Saari sopii parhaiten päiväretkikohteeksi..pitkät kävelymatkat ja kyytejä huonosti.
Jos on useamman päivän niin ainoa oikea hotelli mikä kannattaa ottaa on The Racha Patok beachillä tai sitten joku Patok beachin bungalow (Venekyydit lähtee ja tulee Patok beachille).
Sain Ban Raya-hotellin ravintolasta ruokamyrkytyksen joten seuraavat pari päivää meni wcssä suurimmaksi osaksi ja sitten sairaalaan kun pääsin pois saarelta. Kallis sesonki aika, pettymys oli maksaa itsensä kipeäksi..kirjaimellisesti.
Hotelli ja palvelut sielä ihan ok vaikka tottakai kalliimpia kuin mantereella. Alue hiljainen ja iso. Allasalue ihan hyvä. Sijainti huono..hotellilla kivikkoinen ranta ja matkaa päärannalle paljon.
Wir waren 6 Tage dort, und die Anlage hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Allerdings ist das Personal extrem unmotiviert. Man wird eigentlich komplett ignoriert. An einem Morgen um kurz nach Acht war einem Gast ein Spiegelei vor dem Frühstücksbüffet heruntergefallen. Das lag auch um 9.30 Uhr noch da, was nicht nur hässlich aussah sondern wegen der Rutschgefahr auch nicht ungefährlich war.

Okay hotel på en skøn ø
Vi tog afsted med minimale forventninger og blev derfor positivt overrasket. Koh Racha er en dejlig ø med en lækker strand. Her er dog mange dags turister, så vi valgte at tage på nogle af øens andre strande i dagstimerne. Hotellet er hvad det er. En smule slidt og kunne godt trænge til en facelift, men alt i alt havde vi et dejligt ophold. Hvis man kommer med lave forventninger bliver man bestemt ikke skuffet. Til hotellet høre også en lille strand, her er perfekt at snorkle, da der er mange koraller. Vi havde lidt problemer med at få arrangeret bådtransport, men personalet på hotellet prøve at hjælpe på bedste vis.

Déçu
Déçu de l'hôtel par rapport au prix payé . Pas internet dans les chambres , seulement à la réception quand ca sautait pas . Pas de frigo dans la chambre donc obliger d aller acheter de l eau fraîche à la boutique du coin . Les serviettes de plage sont à louer . Je dirai vu le prix on s attend à un minimum de service .
Le cadre est sympa car beaucoup d arbrs mais attention aux moustiques . J'ai du à plusieurs reprises demander au service de nettoyage de désinsectiser car la protection de moustique dans la salle de bain étaient trouées à plusieurs endroits et les moustiques se baladaient dans la chambre.
Personnel souriant mais pas souvent la au niveau de la réception Check in.
