TravelFrom Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore, the quickest and easiest way to reach us is to fly directly to Krabi International Airport. If you fly into Phuket International Airport, you will need to make an additional transfer either by ferry, speedboat or car taxi; this will add 2-3 hours to your arrival. We can arrange a taxi to pick you up from Krabi Airport or Phuket Airport. You will be transferred to Ao Nang or Ao Nam Mao (depending on the weather/season), where a long-tail boat will bring you to Railei Beach. If you book arrival trnasport with us, a staff member will meet you on the beach to help you transport your luggage and show you to the office. If you arrive after our office has closed, our staff will bring you directly to your house. It's best to arrive at Railei with only the luggage you need for your stay. The Bangkok Airport has a left luggage room where you can deposit extra bags which you won't need. Coming to Railei at low tide can sometimes be a bit tricky. Traveling to Railei by long-tail boat is easiest at high tide. Those **If you have a late-night lay-over in Bangkok we can recommend and make a booking for you at the Regent Suvarnabhumi Hotel or the Queen's Garden Resort, which are 5 minutes from the BKK airport. |

Special Events/Weddings/Parties at Railei Beach Club
Our private homes are not equipped with more furniture or kitchen supplies other than for the number of people the house accommodates. Therefore, for any special celebration within our property or at one of the homes, it is necessary for you to hire Saralisa as your coordinator (see details below) to organize additional tables, chairs, flatware, dishes, glasses, etc.
Any special event which occurs at one of the private houses, extends between house properties, occurs on RBC's common property, or anywhere else on RBC land will incur the following location fees: 2-10 people = 10,000 Baht |
Please keep in mind that any large gatherings will be asked to respect the community in which they are celebrating their event by acknowledging a property wide quite time after 10 pm. If the group prefers to continue "celebrating" we ask that you move the party to one of the bars on Railei outside of Railei Beach Club.

Of course you may always have your wedding on the beach, which is public property. However, in case of rain or strong wind we highly recommend you be prepared with a backup plan to have your wedding in a protected place.
