Located in Ko Racha Yai, a few steps from Konkare Bay, Ban Raya Resort and Spa provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a shared lounge. The property features a bar, as well as a restaurant serving American cuisine. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi throughout the property.

Ter Bay Beach is 500 metres from the accommodation, while Lha Bay is less than 1 km away. The nearest airport is Phuket International Airport, 64 km from Ban Raya Resort and Spa.

So glad I found this place! Next time we come to the area, we’ll skip Patong and come straight here. Ko Racha Yai is less-developed and infinitely less crowded than any place on Phuket Island. For us, that was perfect. When you get to Ban Raya, it feels like you have the whole island to yourself. We liked everything about this place. First, it has outstanding customer service. The staff did everything possible to assure a perfect stay—especially a gent named Marboon. We picked a room near the ocean cove and the big infinity pool, which turned out to be ideal. Our bungalow had a large balcony. The main room was also large, as was the bed, as well as the bathroom. Everything was clean and comfortable. Nice towels and bed sheets, and plenty of soft pillows. There’s great AC, a big TV, a sofa, and plenty of storage space. A large breakfast buffet was included and tasty, with good brewed coffee. The open-air restaurant offered excellent food for lunch and dinner. Ban Raya rents scooters and bicycles, and there’s a market and another restaurant short rides away. My girlfriend loved the on-site spa. Stay here. You’ll be glad you did.

    This resort is absolutely amazing with the clearest water I have seen in Thailand. The facilities are beautiful and the rooms well equipped. The staff are incredible and very willing to assist. The resort provides free ice and drinking water on the beach. Breakfast provided a great selection with good quality of food. Adults only pool and a separate kids pool. Beautiful spa and gym. The restaurants served great food at a reasonable price. The restaurant made my wife`s birthday very special. The resort lights up beautifully at night.

    The location is exceptional. We loved the island and we loved the beach! It was quiet and peaceful here. The food was quite tasty at the restaurant, but quite a bit pricier than high end hotels in phuket. Burgers were upwards of $20 Canadian, and salmon dishes or anything with prawns were $25+. The breakfast included with your stay each morning was quite nice though. We liked the feel of the resort and the layout, and we enjoyed the complimentary scuba gear and paddle boards on the beach. Staff were very friendly and nice

    Beach Front, White Sand, Stunning Sunset, 2 nice pools. Lovely Staff, Nice food, Beautiful environment, We stayed in Jr Suite with Jacuzzi Pool, the pool is 3m x 5m, the Jacuzzi is super strong, and to my surprise, the pool is a HEATED POOL, you can adjust the temperature to your liking, and is easy to operate. I set it to cooler before we sleep and in the day time, We can enjoy the cold water, and set the temperature higher after our afternoon dip, so at night, we can have a Hot Bath / Spa before we sleep.

    The hotel was excellent. It exceeded our expectations. We had been locked in for 2 years. We wanted to relax on the beach with our baby daughter which is exactly what we did. It had an exceptional beach, white sand and green transparent water. The staff was marvelous, super friendly and everyone knew our name. The food was also very good. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a quite, serene location.
