Hotels with Bars in Phi Phi Islands

This is paradise. From stepping off the boat, the service at SAii Phi Phi Village has been nothing short of amazing. The check in process is very simple, there is an app which you download that gives you all the information you need. There is a 24 hour buggy service that you can use on the island and the estimated waiting time is around 2-3 minutes which is brilliant considering how many bungalows there are. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, special shout-out to Toomy who took care of us. The beach is crystal clear, If you want an alternative, you could always take a 15 minute walk to the back of the island where there is Lana bay. On you way there you will have a access to small bars and shops. There is also a wide variety of breakfast options. I highly recommend this resort. Thank you SAii Phi Phi🙂

A fantastic little resort where every room is a detached chalet set in palms and green foliage. At night spot lights add to the magical feel of the place. The room is a little on the small side but the beds are very comfortable and the bathroom is modern. However... the walls are paper thin and although being detached, you cloud clearly hear the guests next door. The pool area was perfect. The relaxing atmosphere encouraged you to make the list of the swim up bar and the pool food service. The view out to sea was pretty spectacular too. The hotel is situated a few minutes walk from the main part of the island where you can eat and drink at so many places. Everything was idyllic until the clock struck 8pm! Then you are bombarded with the loudest club music you could ever imagine. This lasts every night until 2am. Why the island can't stop this, I haven't a clue but it certainly spoiled the holiday for us. We were so shocked in the first night, with the windows of our hut literally vibrating that we rebooked our original hotel back on the mainland as we just couldn't bear the noise. However the next day was our first full day at the resort. That was so relaxing and enjoyable, that we decided to bear with the loud music for the next two nights. The reception staff were not that cheerful which was a shame. And we had issues with the aircon and the fridge which was warm. This wasn't really fixed even though we asked and we were charged for ice too which again was a little rich! Would we go back? No. But it was a nice place to stay for a few days up until 8pm!

We stayed here for 4 nights. The hotel staff were all amazing and very helpful. They collected us from the pier with our bags and carried them directly to the room, and the same leaving the island. The hotel is all individual tree top cabins. This can be a hike/long walk up a hill to the room depending on which one you stay in. The hotel is located on the beach with a private beach which is lovely. You can walk across the beach for 3 minutes to the main path around Phi Phi. 5 minute walk from the hotel to restaurants/shops. Taking 15 minutes to walk to the pier. Or you can get a tail boat taxi directly from the hotel beach to take you around the island or day trips. The hotel’s breakfast was 5/10. The average buffet style breakfast. The pool bar doesn’t exist when we were there and doesn’t look like it has been open in a long time. The rooms were cleaned everyday. I would not recommend the hotel for young children or people with reduced mobility.

The resort itself is beautiful and the beach is nice and secluded. Downside, to get to town you either have to walk the 20/30 minutes or take a long tail boat (200 baht one way). The room/cabin is beautiful, but unfortunately the home to a lot of gecko's screaming at night as well. The fan in the bathroom seemed like it was leaking sewage water or something and had a terrible smell. If you're not a nature person. Definitely not the place for you, as monkeys, lizards, snakes are all there with you. Some advice, try and keep your cabin door closed at all times and don't forget bug spray. Addition, the resort has massage facilities and scuba diving. The swimming pool on sight is very very small and mostly for children. It's best to just enjoy the beach.

You can’t find a more spectacular location to stay. Our bungalow was number 505 and was on the beach front literally a stones throw to the water edge. The sand is white and water clear just as you see in the photos. Things to bear in mind. Cleanliness was not as good as expected. Under and around our bungalow there were things left behind by previous guests a lot of rubbish, slippers, towels which had been forgotten. The bathroom and shower was outdated and felt old and we didn’t dare use the outside shower as that whole area looked dirty and stained from the wildlife. I had to ask the cleaner one day for a cloth to clean the table outside on the balcony as it was stained from beverages used by guests before us. The breakfast area really was quite gross. I didn’t feel like i was eating in a clean atmosphere. Really basic things like the table cloth on the breakfast bar were stained and tatty. The bar being quite open to the outside had stains from the fauna which seemed to flow in and out at their leisure. Staff were attentive however you never saw anyone cleaning when they weren’t doing anything. Its a pity as it would make the atmosphere much more pleasant. We did encounter some problems with the verandah door not opening and it was resolved immediately. The hotel took full charge of collecting us from our previous hotel in phuket taking us to the ferry port and the boat trip to the island for 1500 baht per person also the trip from the resort by boat to the next hotel in Krabi also for 1700 baht per person. This service is a real benefit because otherwise you have to take several boats and taxis and avoid all the hassle! Also another thing which was fabulous and my highlight of my entire trip to Thailand was the private long boat tour to ko phi phi leh. Not for the visit to Maya beach (however it was included) but for the swimming in the lagoon and snorkeling experience. That was worth every baht! You pay for the boat up to 4 ppl and its 2080 baht for 4 hours. Highly recommended!

This hotel is a short walk from the pier. It is located close to the louder part of Koh Phi Phi, Dalum Beach. Extremely close to slinky's bar. Google maps will take u most of the way, but it misses the last left turn (pic enclosed). The nice girl that work the front desk is over worked, but nice. Got in earlier than the check in time and spent a couple of hours at the pool till my was ready. The rooms are assigned ahead of arrival, so you may get lucky, or not. Pool/Beach towels are available at the front desk. I've picked the cheapest room. It faces nothing much and no view. I advise u to pick the rooms that overlook the pool on the 2nd floor. The room is pretty small, but there's room for everything. Mini fridge, 2 free bottles of water, coffee tea, some amenities for the shower and some reasonably priced snacks. TV is there. Haven't used it, so don't know what's on. There's a balcony with 2 chairs and a small table. Hot water - check! The pool - my favorite spot. Great surroundings for sun bathing. There's a long happy hour for food and drinks. The island itself isn't as cheap as Thailand. Water will cost almost twice as much if it's not the filtered kind. The island is small, at least the part you don't need a boat to get to ☺️ The best way to know it, is to walk around. There's a small market with fruit and vegetables and local stands, bars, restaurants, everything is within a walking distance. There's a 1000 baht deposit at check in. WiFi doesn't work well in the room. Feel free to ask questions and enjoy 🏖️

The team were generally pretty good, there when you needed them but also out of your way when you were relaxing. We had the Deluxe suite Seaview and the room itself was great, clean and ready to go. Balcony view was nothing short of spectacular. The bathroom whilst useful had one of the worst patch jobs I have seen, not a tradie but I could have done a better patch of the bath. The other item on walking into the room was the sheer volume of rules which also backed up at the pool. Can only assume they have had some trouble with guests in the past but have noticed on Phi Phi everywhere likes lots of rules. The beach restaurant was immaculate and nothing like a meal on the sand with a view second to none. Short walk to all the activities on the island and have to recommend the massage on site.

Jan'23: I honestly DON'T understand the 4/5 star reviews for this property. Most of them attribute it to the beautiful view from the pool. I do agree, the pool is awesome but only if you need to upload photos on IG. Other than that let me tell you some hard facts: 1. Room quality- These are smallest and darkest rooms I have ever been to. Century old furnishing, which feels like it will break down any moment. 2. Non functional AC - An AC which literally takes 45 minutes to get the room to a bearable temperature. 3. Inaccesible location - The property is literally the second last property on the island and away from all the stores, restaurants and bars. You have to walk atleast 15 minutes to get to the Tonsai market which you might need to do atleast 4-5 times a day. 4. Poor service- The staff were very rude and inconsiderate of any request that we had. No luggage carts, no fresh linen and completely non responsive to any request. I had to drag my luggage to the pier while leaving the property. 5. Exorbitant Pricing - I will concede that the pool view was great which is the reason that most people have rated 4/5 stars, but considering that we paid 125 USD for a night stay, you can get far better accommodation on Tonsai Beach with better furnishing and facilities. Koh Phi phi in itself is stunning and you will have far better spots to get those IG likes. Choose wisely.

The room was big but full of mosquitos and one of the day I left my swimmers drying and when I went to collect there was a cockroach in the bathroom. Everyday I had to go to the reception after the housekeeper because she would forget to leave water, beach towels or refill the shower gel. They leave the towels in the grass very early in the morning and it just seats there waiting until the housekeeper can go in, I believe that what’s caused itches in our body. Breakfast wasn’t really thinking of people that come from other cultures so definitely suggest people to book without breakfast and just go down to town to eat. Water park was not as expected, most of the slides are dangerous and the water inside the swimming pool is dirty I was afraid to catch something if I went inside. Shuffle bus is really helpful and the drivers are very friendly however the hotel keeps letting other people go inside the bus and then instead of having a nice ride which was included on the price of the hotel so we paid for it we felt like they were doing favour for us to be in the bus because there was no space.

We were booked into a standard room by our travel agent - we upgraded as the standard was a tiny room with shower over the toilet. Backpackers style. The superior room, like in above photo was lovely but from street level was 229 steps up a hill. Room was lovely and view was fantastic. Shower had no pressure at all so very difficult to wash hair or clean yourself. Staff were very helpful however and friendly and carried our bags up and down all the steps when we arrived and departed. Cheap to stay at and the upgrade for 2 nights was only approx $25 NZD so well worth it.
