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.

A popular Koh Phi Phi party hotel, Ibiza House offers both private and dorm accommodation right on the Loh Dalam beachfront. Private villas are also available to book, which come with more space and access to a second outdoor swimming pool.

The rooms are quite simple but comfortable. The dorms have individual safes for your belongings and come in a wide range of sizes. This means that a group of friends traveling together could book a whole room to themselves, depending on availability.

However, the main draw of Ibiza House is its party vibe. The hostel bar is always buzzing, which makes it easy to meet people, and there is a big all-day pool party every Wednesday and Sunday. Meanwhile, there are many other bars easily accessible along the bay, so you are never too far away from a beach party.

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.

PP Charlie Beach Resort sits on the edge of Loh Dalam Bay, about a five-minute walk from the bars, restaurants, and shops of Ton Sai Bay. This means it’s both convenient and quiet, perfect for those who want to party but also get some rest. It’s a 3-star resort with very good facilities, for a more modest price than some of the more upmarket hotels in the area.

The pool, in particular, is a big draw. It’s both large and well-designed, with plenty of lounger space (including Balinese beds that sit within the water itself) and a lovely view of Ton Sai Bay. Unlike many mid-range resorts in the area, the food at the on-site restaurant is genuinely good, especially the fantastic breakfast buffet.

The rooms are relatively basic, offering little in the way of design or amenities. Some of the cheaper categories of room can also be quite small and noisy – ask for a room far away from the hotel bar if possible. We recommend booking the Superior Double Room for more comfort.

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!

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.

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.

This spot on Ton Sai bay is a gay Koh Phi Phi hotel favorite for the party crowd. It benefits from a great central location, while still being large and secluded enough that you can get a good night’s sleep if you want to.

There is an excellent swimming pool, with plenty of room for everyone and lovely views of the beach. Meanwhile, several bars provide the poolside refreshments and make it easy to meet fellow travelers before a night out.

The rooms are basic and, at times, quite dated. Definitely go for a room with a sea view if you can get it. Generally speaking, Phi Phi Island Cabana Hotel is a good choice if you want to be able to stay near the party scene while still having some of the comforts of a large resort, but do not expect anything particularly fancy.

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.
