Railay is a limestone peninsula on the Andaman coast of Krabi, reached mainly by longtail boat from Ao Nang. Its bays and sheer cliffs have made it a well-known rock climbing destination, and Ton Sai, the village on the same peninsula, has its own beach and pier. The day here is shaped more by the beach and the boats at the piers than by any town, so the resort suits guests who want the sand close at hand.

Railay Beach lies 50 m from the resort, and Phra Nang Cave is 800 m away, a limestone cave reached on foot along the shore. Ao Nang Beach is across the bay on the mainland, while Poda Island, a short boat ride offshore, is 5 km away. Tiger Cave Temple (Wat Tham Suea), a hillside temple with a long staircase, is 15.8 km away, and Krabi International Airport is 18.5 km from the resort.

For a day away from the sand, the Emerald Pool (Sa Morakot) is a forest pool inside Khao Phanom Bencha National Park, and the Hong Islands are reached by boat trip from the piers. Both are easiest to plan around the boats, which make the rest of the journey.
