I've found Thailand in general is touristy, but just comparing within the country, yes, Railay/Tonsai Beaches and Koh Lanta is generally less touristy than say Pattaya or Phuket (which these two are way too touristy haha).

Brilliant! Will keep this in mind. Yeah, Phuket, is where literally everyone wants to go to. I've learnt to just touch the main touristy places in a visit, and take some time to find and look for some of the hidden treasures that most people don't know about. Cheers. Following you mate :)
Great man ... yea, do day visit to Phuket/Bangkok, and then it'll make you appreciate staying in nicer places like Railay/Tonsai and Koh Lanta. If you are going to be in that region, I hear Cambodia and Myanmar are great places to visit as well. I didn't get a chance to go to those regions, but my friends that have been love it!
One of my best buddies recently visited Cambodia and was telling me how historically significant it is, especially from an architectural perspective. The place has loads of ancient tombs, statues, and caves. If you've seen the movies/played the game - Tomb Raider, the tombs in it are actually based on the tombs in Cambodia.
