I stayed at the Sand Sea Resort for 2 nights with my boyfriend, but we would definitely have liked to have stayed for longer if we had the time/money. From the moment the boat came around the corner from Ao Nang, the place is absolutely stunning. The boat stopped on the beach right outside the hotel and we received a... more

After a horrible experience at Ya Ya I decided to pay the extra money for what seemed like a professionally run resort (rather than a cheapo place): the Sand Sea Resort. Was that ever a mistake!!! I should have paid more and gone for the Railay Bay Resort ...I heard only good things from the people staying there. Anyway, back... more

We were forced to change rooms in the middle of the night. No apologies. No refund because the "upgraded" us to an almost identical room. more

We called Sand Sea to book a room, and they told us they only had the most expensive one available. (not sure if they were lying or not?) When we arrived we realised there wasn't even a view. We were stuck on the main path to the restaurant. The aircon didn't work and there was no hot water. They didn't... more

Have to agree with what the second last reviewer has said. The place is terrible. We stayed in a "Sweet" Cottage for two nights 9th - 10th December in room 207. Outside our porch smelled of sewage. I know the water in Railay can smell a bit but this was awful, the septic tank seemed to have stopped working -... more

We (as in 12 of us) were at Sand Sea Resort for 4 nights back in July and we loved the time we spent there. I know I know, its back in July but why am I only writing the review now? The reason is just that I don't really agree with some of the comments given, but then again,... more

This place is AWFUL! The management is AWOL - swanning around on long w'end breaks EVERY w'end leaving poorly trained staff in terror of a guest with a legitimate request ! Most staff are too lazy and disheveled to wipe down the tables. When I politely requested the NAME of the manager - they refused to tell me. They would... more
