=================================================================
**NEW UPDATE for Ban Raya :

Currently, the Ban Raya website is not able to support the payment based on the special rate. Therefore, for reservations made with Ban Raya, please let Robin or myself know so that we can make the necessary arrangements for you.

Please state the following when emailing us so that we know the dates that you would like to book Ban Raya for :

1. Check in & Check out dates / Name of guests
2. Speedboat transfer required ?(about 800 baht nett)

Do let us know by the end of this week so that we can inform Ban Raya accordingly and also check with regards to the preferred payment mode.

We apologise for the deadline imposed by Ban Raya but they have communicated that they are not able to hold the promo rates for more than a week.

Thanks y'all !
