Situated in the heart of Krabi’s breathtaking Phranang Peninsula, on the edge of Krabi Marine National Park, Rayavadee Resort sits within one of Thailand’s most beautiful and ecologically rich landscapes. From its very beginning over two decades ago, the resort was envisioned as a place that lives in harmony with its surroundings. Every villa was thoughtfully built around existing trees and none were removed, allowing the architecture to blend seamlessly into the lush environment. This approach ensured that the natural habitats of local birds, animals, and marine life remained undisturbed. Today, the resort’s sustainability practices continue to reflect this philosophy, with initiatives focused on responsible water and waste management, as well as energy efficiency.
The resort’s luxurious villas are dotted throughout tropical gardens and coconut groves, near to Railay and Phranang Beaches. The villas’ unique design and award-winning architecture – with Thai-inspired details throughout – blends into the surroundings, each offering luxurious amenities and a dedicated butler service.
