Phi Phi Island Village Beach Resort is a sprawling 4.5-star resort on Laem Thong, featuring over 200 well-appointed bungalows and villas which blend traditional Thai elements like thatched roofs with clean, modern design.

All the rooms are fairly spacious, but the Deluxe bungalows and the suites are especially generous. Unlike many resorts in the area which only offer accommodations for couples, Phi Phi Island Village has a small number of Family Bungalows that are perfect for small groups of friends. If you are, however, looking for a romantic getaway, you could do worse than the secluded hillside pool villa with its incredible views of the bay.

Phi Phi Island Village Beach Resort can organize activities throughout the area and even has its own PADI-certified diving center. If you just want to relax, you will enjoy the huge central pool or one of the smaller infinity ones, as well as the direct private beachfront access. Massages and other wellness treatments are offered in a serene beach pavillion, and several bars and cafes throughout the resort will keep you refreshed.

Phi Phi Island Village is committed to sustainable tourism, running several conservation and education initiatives to preserve the island’s marine life. These include beach cleanups, mangrove plantings, and an on-site Marine Center to teach guests about local species.

This Ton Sai resort manages to combine a party vibe with a more relaxed, grown-up resort atmosphere. Both the Deluxe rooms and the Pool Villas are spacious and stylish, with a simple contemporary design. The Pool Villas are an especially good choice, however, since the main pool closes at 7 pm most nights.

PP Princess Resort has a great location close to plenty of bars and restaurants, and there is also a good selection of them on-site. There are two pools, one large central infinity pool and a smaller, quieter one. The bigger pool is home to a weekly pool party on Fridays, which is attended by people throughout the island and is a good place to meet new friends.

Sitting on a massive cliffside overlooking Ton Sai bay, Phi Phi Cliff Beach Resort is one of the newest hotels in Ton Sai, and one of the classier choices around. The hotel features plush and elegant design in its spacious rooms, most of which feature exceptional views. We particularly recommend the pool rooms, which give you direct access to the hotel’s infinity pool, as well as the beachfront rooms.

Phi Phi Cliff Beach Resort has limited facilities, but it’s only an easy 15-minute walk to Ton Sai pier and the local bars and restaurants. Since it’s a little bit removed from the main action, you are guaranteed a much quieter stay than you would get in a hotel in the center.

One particular quirk of Phi Phi Cliff Beach Resort is that there are quite a few monkeys in the area. While they are generally friendly, many guests have complained about the creatures coming into their rooms and stealing their food. In short – remember to lock your door!

Since it is a little bit removed from the pier and the main hub of nightlife, Gypsy Sea View Resort presents very good value for money on the island. It goes without saying that, given the size of Koh Phi Phi, this still places you within very easy walking distance from everything you need – about a 10-15 minute walk from Ton Sai pier.

The hotel itself is nothing special – both the rooms and the bungalows feature very basic decor and could do with a refresh. If in doubt, the rooms are nicer but the bungalows give you some more privacy. However, it is a good option for cheap, convenient accommodation on the island, especially if you’re not the type to spend most of your vacation in the hotel.

There is a good-sized outdoor pool with plenty of loungers for when you do want to just chill out. Alternatively, it’s just a 3-minute walk to the nearest stretch of beach.

ChaoKoh Phi Phi Hotel & Resort is located a short walk away from Ton Sai pier. This places it conveniently close to all the bars and restaurants that make up the Phi Phi nightlife, but far enough that you won’t be kept up by all the noise.

The hotel features well-decorated, modern rooms with a touch of traditional Thai ambiance. The rooms are not always as well-maintained as you would hope, but they are clean and pleasant. The Deluxe rooms are particularly attractive, with large windows, colorful mood lighting, and plenty of space.

ChaoKoh Phi Phi Hotel & Resort has a very nice outdoor pool as well as a decent gym with weights and cardio equipment. The on-site restaurant has great views over the bay and serves a varied breakfast with plenty of Asian and Western choices.

This beautiful Hat Laem Thong resort is designed to make you forget the rest of the world. It sits along a pristine, powdery-white private stretch of beach, fringed by palm trees and facing the stunning blue expanse of the Andaman sea. Like most resorts in this part of the island, it is completely remote, accessible only by boat, placing you worlds away from the rowdy nightlife in Ton Sai.

All the rooms are modern and elegant, combining dark polished woods with comfortable furnishings. However, if you’re going to enjoy Phi Phi in style, you might as well go all out. Opt for a private beachfront bungalow to wake up every morning with the sound of the waves, or book one of the new hilltop Ocean Sunset Villas. These come with your own pool and a deck from which you can enjoy the best sunsets on the island in complete privacy.

There are three pools to choose from, including two gorgeous infinity pools, as well as a range of activities to keep you busy during the day such as yoga, Thai cooking classes, and Muay Thai boxing. The resort can also help you discover the beauty of Phi Phi with experiences like diving, snorkelling, island hopping, and even fishing. If you like to keep up your workouts on vacation, there’s a compact but well-equipped gym sitting among the tropical gardens. Then, wind down with a massage, either in the spa or right on the beach.

You may not be able to get to the bars on the other side of the island, but that doesn’t mean there is nothing to do at night. The resort boasts several great bars and restaurants, from the low-key beachfront Mongthalay Bar to Cha Bah, where you can dine on fresh grilled seafood with your feet in the sand.

Located along on a party-heavy stretch of beach just north of Loh Dalam Bay, this hotel is made for enjoying the Phi Phi nightlife. The area gets very loud at night (and the rooms have less-than-ideal soundproofing), so it’s very much not for those who want a quiet, peaceful experience. If, however, you just want somewhere pretty to nurse away from the previous night’s hangover, this could be the place for you.

Indeed, the views from Cobble Beach Hotel are some of the best in the bay, something which the layout of the hotel very much takes advantage of. Whether you’re chilling by the pool or having some drinks at the bar, you can take in the bright blue Andaman sea and the green-topped limestone cliffs of Koh Phi Phi in all their glory. Then, at night, you can head out to one of the many bars and beach parties in the area, the bucket of vodka in hand.

The accommodation itself is very simple, made up of basic rooms and bungalows. It does, however, provide good value for money if you are on the island to party. Make sure you get in touch with the hotel to arrange pick-up from the pier, as the hotel is up a steep hill (a porter carries your luggage for you) and can be hard to find.

For the ultimate remote island experience, you can’t do better than Zeavola. This resort is all about luxury island style, with stunning teak villas surrounded by lush jungle greenery. Each villa features impeccable decor set within windowed walls so that you always feel like you are right in the middle of nature. If you want an extra slice of luxury, go for the sprawling hillside pool villa, which is perfect for a romantic getaway.

If you can drag yourself away from your villa, you’ll find an exceptional spa, a swimming pool, a fitness suite, and even a diving school offering PADI courses. In fact, the resort is perfect for those wanting to explore Phi Phi’s legendary reefs, since it specializes in organizing diving and snorkeling experiences for its guests.

There are two restaurants on-site, both of an incredibly high standard. On the beachfront, Tocada specializes in Mediterranean cuisine, while Baxil serves up authentic Thai food set under a canopy of trees.

Zeavola isn’t just gorgeous: it’s also sustainable and eco-friendly, which has earned it an award for World’s Best Sustainable Boutique Hotel Award.

Located in tiny Phak Nam bay, this is as remote as it gets on Phi Phi. The accommodation is made up of stunning Thai-style island bungalows, featuring thatched pointed roofs and exclusively natural materials.

The amenities are decidedly rustic: all the rooms are fan-only and do not have hot water (not that you are really likely to need it in this neck of the woods). There is an on-site beachfront restaurant serving authentic Thai and Western cuisine, and Thai massages are available. This is very much a place for getting away from everything, with the beauty of the Andaman coast doing most of the entertainment.

As always, Phi Phi Relax Beach Resort can help you plan some activities around the island. In particular, it offers some great fishing packages, which include the opportunity to cook your catches right on the boat.

P.P. Blue Sky Resort is less luxurious than some others on the list, but it’s a great option for those who want to enjoy Phi Phi’s more laid back side without breaking the bank. The location on Long Beach means you can enjoy a more relaxed atmosphere than you would in Ton Sai, while still being within walking distance from the bars and restaurants of central Phi Phi.

Independently owned and run by a lovely team of staff, the resort is made up of 13 charming bungalows. They are all decorated in a soothing palette of white and blue and feature all the standard amenities. The beachside bungalows are a particularly good deal, offering sea views while still feeling private and secluded.

The facilities are limited, but P.P. Blue Sky Resort can help you organize activities to keep you busy on the island. There is also some great snorkeling to be done directly on the resort beach, and equipment rental is available from reception.
