Phi Phi Ba Kao Bay Resort

房间很好，床很软，工作人员很友善。有人在码头等着接我。

Stayed at BaKao bay, Phi Phi. Excellent villas with outdoor seating on patio or sliding door to outdoor patio. Great as well there’s ac in the villas too. Only thing they could have had better beds. Mattress is rock hard but we survived. There’s lots of options for excursions around the islands too, shopping you will find more in Tonsai bay/beach. Close to 2 different beaches but the best beach is about 20 min walking distance, or 100thb for tuktuk. The best beach is by Phi Phi Hotel resort. But you will find several spots on the way walking over as well. However if you’re looking for the white powdered no rocks beach, then keep walking to Phi Phi hotel resort beach front. There is also some shops further down that beach. You have lots of scenic views and trails to walk as well if you want to explore this side of Phi Phi too. Just make sure to wear good sneakers/hiking shoes. This side of Phi Phi is definitely more relaxed and less touristy than Tonsai bay/beach. I was here before the tsunami when Phi Phi still was less crowded and there was no McDonalds or anything like that. I stayed 1 night in Tonsai and was glad I left for BaKao bay side. Unless you’re in your 20s and want the crowd and party life then stay in Tonsai. It’s so exploited now and not at all what it used to be. My recommendation is BaKao bay side, any hotel/resort depending on budget. BaKao bay hotel with villas was great price on Expedia. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Pool and laundry too.

The staff were so friendly, and they send a longboat to pick you up and drop you off from the pier - free of charge + help with your bags. It was super helpful. Arrange in advance. The chalet was clean and the aircon worked great. I preferred the larger one, as the smaller one had the aircon situated right by the bed, so it was always blowing on your face if you don’t adjust the position of the vent with your hand. Since it’s turned off when you leave, I would always forget to adjust it until I got in bed and had to get up to move it from my face. There is a lovely beach nearby that’s breathtaking. Taking a private boat to Monkey Bay, Maya Bay, and Bamboo was amazing. I didn’t want to be with tons of people, so I went the private route. It was awesome. This part of Phi Phi is much more chill and laid back. It’s small and everything closes early. If this vibe is what you’re after - it’s amazing. If you’re looking for crazy parties, this isn’t the place for you. I would 100% go back. Note: the call for prayers can wake you up at sunrise, and it’s very close to the hotel. If you’re a light sleeper, it might wake you up. It didn’t bother me.

If you're going to Phi phi and want to get away from the madness and masses of people then this is the place to go. Beautiful little village with everything you need
