Nature is beautiful

Beautiful and extremely quit. Stayed at one of the Jacuzzi Villas. We’ll definitely be back.

I liked the location very quiet and tranquil. The property does need a new coat of paint

Raya Buri Resort is the most distant resort of the "local" resorts from Erawan Waterfalls over a challenging road. The location is attractive, right on the reservoir, with kayaks and paddle boats available for guests. One morning there was no water and I was unable to take a shower and had to wash my hands with bottled water. When I complained, the staff gave me a $4 discount on my bill. That hardly seemed like fair compensation!

perfect hotel nice ,clean, good view and comfortable.

Very quiet, peaceful and remote place to stay in Kanchanaburi area... Excellent value... Not too high end or fancy, but certainly well above average and perfectly fine accommodations...I highly recommend rRaya Buri

need a bridge to get to rooms not a wooden board. dangerous for some people

Stayed in the hill rooms, not on the water. It was low season only us and two other couples. Ate dinner there and it was good. Breakfast was made to order and okay. The bed was a bit uncomfortable. Kind of hard. Has those toilets that you are not suppose to put toilet paper in. They look western but have a sign that says not to put paper in them. Not uncommon outside the major tourist areas.

We've never slept in a floating "unit" and jumping out of bed in the morning and diving in the lake was probably a once in a lifetime experience. I saw other hotels on the lake with the same sort of units, but they looked very basic, most likely without toilet, as the infrastructure needed to handle that is very, VERY expensive and I imagine very costly to maintain, as are making all the units stay together with rising or falling water levels. We originally were checked into a very nice room "on land" but decided to go to the water units...same price so changing wasn't a problem. The water units have A/C, very hot water and a small porch. There is an "incline" or, diagonal tram, that is maintained which can help those with tons of luggage get it down to the floating units, or customers might not be able to use all the steps down. As for location, spectacular. I doubt I could have found it without GPS navigation, but I came at night. When leaving in daylight, I did see LOTS of flags, and there were signs a major turns. Driving the switchbacks was fun and the government road was as well designed and maintained as if it was in Japan...a real change from so much of Thai highways, which, BTW, the major roads are getting a great overhaul. The restaurant was fine, and although I didn't like the freeze dried coffee as the only choice in the breakfast, there is a Cafe right there that opens at 8am that has real coffee. The breakfast was the usual Thai breakfast. I would go again!

The scenery are great but prepare for Mosquitoes Invasion at night. Must close windows and doors. Bring insect repellent and food. Restaurant charge high price for foods. Far from town so bring a lot of food and drinks if you want to avoid high cost at hotel's restaurant. Great place for laying low and honeymoon. Rooms are a bit old but provide everything needed to have relax stay.
