The location was beautiful. The water was crystal clear and the island had amazing views and landscapes. It felt like being in the maldives. The spa facility was exceptional and their masseuse Aye was splendid. The staff was very helpful and the resort kept up with its luxury status with small gestures and tokens every night. The property was very lavish and the rooms were spacious.

The main beach had visitors , like outsiders coming in from ferries and boats blocking the view so we couldnt have privacy at the beach.

This is our second visit to the island. The hotel is beautiful in all respects. The cleanliness, attention, reception, and the staff are very kind and polite. It was a very enjoyable stay at paradise .. And I will visit the place for the third time for sure . but be sure to book from Delivery from the hotel itself, as I booked from a travel agency, and they would charge us more 600 baht for the bags, and on the return we had to continue with the trip for 3 hours, and they refused to return us without . And when we arrived at the port, they said that there was no place on the bus for bags and the 1st bus left the port .. Their treatment was very bad .. the agency called ( the raya princess ) ,, dont book any trip from them

I was very disturbed by the visit of tourist trips to the place and the inconvenience they cause, since I visited the place years ago and the overcrowding was not like this .. We came to the hotel asking for privacy and quiet. I hope you will reconsider this issue

The beach is the most beautiful beach I’ve ever seen. The sand is like powder and white, the sea clear blue, beautiful temperature and perfect for swimming as calm

the excursions are extortionate! if you want to visit phi phi islands / Jane’s bond island etc it is better to do from Phuket if you are staying there before or after as you will save several hundreds of pounds ..literally! Also there are not many dining options either on site or surrounding the resort. one of the advertised resort restaurants was only open for lunch which meant there was only 2 options…and the upstairs Italian one doesn’t really count I think as it’s more of a pool snack place where it’s entire menu is at the Earth Cafe anyway…so realistically there is only one option!

Transport to the island was very well organised. The small island is about 30 mins by speedboat. The staff and service were exceptional tgrougoutour our stay. The room we had was spacious and beautifully designed with aircon available as needed. The facilities ànd food were amazing and the lsland itself was stunning. The beach is clean witb fine white sand and turquoise water.with big waves and a stunning, sunset view. The resort is helping to restore coral reefs and we has a great snorkeling experience which was through an organised trip on the other side of the island.

The food prices are high and service and tax are all added to the prices. Other than that, it was a perfect.

We got upgraded to a pool villa and it was stunning! We even have a separate living room! The kid never get out of the pool and he just want to stay there forever. My 5 year old boy even cried when he finds out that we were leaving the next day. The beach is just outside the front door so it can’t be easier to surf at the sea. The wave was fierce though, and we lost two pairs of sun glasses + a snorkel in the wave. It was fun surfing though. We dropped our plan of snorkeling and stayed in the villa most of the time during our two days but it was totally worth it. Will definitely come back again.

We had the most amazing stay at The Racha. I think we were very fortunate that it wasn't overly busy so we always had an amazing table for dinner and breakfast with a great view. I would say when things start to get busier I would be booking your dinner reservation ahead if you are requesting one of the front tables near the view as they go quickly. Unfortunately the dive center was closed when we went as the diver was on holidays however the resort was very accommodating to help us find another center on the island. I would suggest you book ahead for this also if you plan on diving. You get free access to kayaks, paddle boards and snorkels which is incredible to do before breakfast or in the afternoon. The staff were so very friendly and although english wasn't their first language, they were very helpful and understanding. The lounge which you go to prior to departing to the island at Cha Long Pier is also very nice with incredibly friendly staff and free refreshments for you to enjoy while you wait in the cool aircon and it has charging stations for your devices.

We loved it all! The only thing to say was that the water was unfortunately brown when I went to have a bath. Apparently it's just this time of the year but it is completely safe so I continued with the bath and just made lots of bubbles to try hide the fact it was brown haha. I was completely fine so it is safe - just don't drink it! I would also say it would be nice to have more snacks in the mini bar as I would probably have purchased them all so maybe it was a blessing in disguise that there wasn't much haha.

I liked the vibe, the cleanliness, the staff and food was also acceptable. I appreciate their consideration in providing my family with a variety halal options. The rooms were great as well especially the outdoor shower. I also loved how secluded it was from the rest of the world. Racha was an experience that we will forever remember.

Not many activities, two days is more than enough to enjoy the beach. The spa was very nice however the massage was basic. I recieved a better massage for less than half the price in the mainland. There are many frongs and huuuuuuuge lizards that are just scary, if you are not used to tropical creatures.( please note that they only came out after a night of rain, which is to expected in tropical resorts)

Very beautiful clean water, friendly staff. One can snorkle immediately from the beach on both sides or walk 10 minutes to trhe other side of the island to find more corals

We had to leave early, as my wife got sick. I understand that we got no refund for the four days we had to leave earlier, but I would have appreciated some gesture like some discount for the next visit etc....

➕Calm and quite place ➕The beach and nature are amazing ➕Trully great staff ➕Not many island day tourists these days ➕Hotel is ran properly by all means(!) ➕Free transfer for 1w stay, boat ride, great lounge at Chalong pier

➖Part of the price is in the food (lunches/dinners) it is slightly overpriced but still good but there are no alternatives these days ➖Internet isn't good but it understandable since the island is far away from the mainland ➖No free water in the restaurant and in the bar ➖Very loud AC (info for the hotel)

One of the best resorts you can stay at on this island. It’s facilities are world class and the grounds were kept clean. The breakfast was amazing and also came with champagne as well. Dining on the resort was quite good as well and so was the on site spa.

The villas were a bit outdated in style and the bathtub was not working properly. Also, the design of the water heaters was quite bad as you need to reduce the air condition to below 22C for the compressor to power the water heater.
