Guesthouses, hotels and resorts

Laem Thong

Haad Laem Thong (Palm Beach) is the most remote of the remote beaches, but also one of the most developed, with several large resorts filling the surrounding hills. At the same time, a small community of Chao Ko still live here and run shops and food stalls that charge Thai prices right alongside the overpriced resorts. A school is located here right smack in the middle of the Natural Resort, so there's still lots of local life going on. The beach is one of the island's best. It's great at high tide and big enough to accommodate large numbers of people in high season without too much crowding. The 600 baht one-way price tag on a long boat transfer puts off most people from a casual visit, but this is one of the beaches to head to if you have a desire to be far from the maddening crowd.

Ao Lo Bakao

Home to a single resort, Phi Phi Island Village, Ao Lo Bakao is one of Ko Phi Phi's more stunning stretches of sand. Quiet most of the time, Ao Lo Bakao is great for swimming and other water sports. The water is very shallow indeed and when the tide is out you will have to wade for about 100 metres until you reach the beach as long tail taxi boats cannot get in any closer.

Rantee Beach

Rantee Beach was for a long time one of Ko Phi Phi's great hideaways -- nowadays it's being outclassed by newer bungalow outfits on Pak Nam Bay and Ao Poh, where much of what you're looking for here is in more abundant supply. Rantee is still a laid back affair, with only three (and one of those is only open in the high season) hut operations on the beach. The beach has its own private generator, with electricity available from 18:00 to 24:00, so take that into consideration before paying more for a room with a fan. Air-con is entirely out of the question. Be sure to bring along a torch and plenty of mosquito repellent. There are a few chilled out bars, and a later night venue named Tune-In, so it's not always peace and quiet during the evenings. The main highlight of Rantee is the abundance of stunning hard and soft corals which lie directly off the beach. It's arguably the finest snorkelling spot on all of Phi Phi, and you don't need a boat to get to it. Try spotting the rays, reef sharks and puffer fish. Rantee may not always be the quiet backwater it is today, with signs of redevelopment, but its location means that it will never be one of Phi Phi's busier haunts. At the moment, boat access is the most efficient means of arrival and departure, with a price tag of 400 baht per person for a ride to or from Ton Sai. There is path to walk to Ton Sai village, however this really does give you a considerable workout and shouldn't be relied on as an efficient mode of transport.

Ao Toh Ko

Like Ao Poh, this great little bay is one of Ko Phi Phi's undiscovered little gems. There's a single resort here, with great swimming and a beach that is deserted most of the time. You can get here on foot by taking the path to the view point and continuing on down the other side -- takes an hour, and it's a good stiff hike, especially with a pack on your back. Couch potatoes among us will definitely opt for the 100 baht boat taxi from Ton Sai pier -- but you may have to wait until there's a few people wanting to go.

Ao Loh Dalam

Ao Loh Dalam was ground zero for the tsunami on Phi Phi, with the majority of bungalows and rooms obliterated. After the tsunami, wrangling and politics slowed down redevelopment, however rebuilding did start and gathered pace until recently when things slowed a little. The majority of the western end of the beach has now been fully restored as the mighty Cabana, stretching oodles of square metres and encompassing an enormous pool. Any smaller outfits which were in this area seem to be no longer, out of cash or sold up.

The central and eastern areas still have some charms on offer, a handful of places with huts ranging from 300 to 3,000 baht, allowing for a friendly cosmopolitan crowd to populate the small beach bars. Charlie's and Princess seem to have combined forces and built larger hotel style rooms rather than bungalows. They have also completed construction on a new shopping court on the Viewpoint Road. This shopping court was delayed for a few years, apparently due to planning permissions being removed because the owner didn't comply with sewage regulations. The owner was also made to downscale his building from three floors to two (in line with all plans for Phi Phi, but some are more equal than others). The newly finished building creates a whole new shopping avenue and bar district.

Lo Dalam is generally quite swimmable, although at low tide you might have to wade a few hundred metres before you find water deep enough to properly swim. Unfortunately as with anywhere that's heavily populated there is an element of garbage which makes its way to the sea; fortunately plastic bags can't sting or bite so if you see one floating around, simply scoop it out and pop it in the bins which dot the beach. We hear of unconfirmed rumours that raw sewage is being pumped into the water, although with the new sewage treatment plant this will hopefully become a thing of the past. A few boats zip around here with inflatable bananas, while wake boarding and paragliding is on offer as well. A large area right at the centre of the beach has been roped off for children. The sea here has also been cleared of any small rocks.

The nightly waste which is dumped on the beach from revellers at Slinkies, Ibiza and Apache bars is a concern, but the authorities have made an effort to ensure the bars do a little cleaning for those who get up early to enjoy the beach.

Ton Sai village

Located on the narrow isthmus connecting the two islands comprising Ko Phi Phi -- Ko Nai and Ko Nawk -- this whole area was hit by a double whammy on tsunami day -- waves inundated the streets from both sides, and the water level rose to about three metres. But the destruction here was superficial compared to the places that were levelled on the beach itself -- most structures were left standing, if badly water damaged and in need of extensive renovation. About 90% of businesses rose quickly to the task of rebuilding and the only striking vestige of the tsunami is the street from town to the constructed wetlands project, which is still a muddy, unpaved mess.

For the sake of simplicity, we've divided this area into two sections -- Ton Sai village -- which covers everything off the beach on the isthmus from the pier east to Tara Inn. East of Tara Inn is covered in the Soi viewpoint section.

Staying in the town itself brings its own unique issues. Quite simply, until at least 02:00, the town parties. There has been a recent trend to hire travellers to hand out flyers and act as touts for various businesses. The authorities would frown upon this, but some of the locally connected Thai-owned businesses are doing the same thing (often with far more foreigners). If you like a party, like late night food, don't mind touts and can handle things with a good grace then Ton Sai is the place for you -- it is the beating heart of Phi Phi and everything is here.

Between Ton Sai and Long Beach

The Arayburi and Bayview Resorts are at the eastern end of Ton Sai beach. If you continue on through them, a path leads over a dilapidated fence (just jump over it, that's what everyone else does) and along some windy coastal paths to one very good bungalow operation. You can also get here by walking along the beach at low tide, or picking your way through the rocks along the coast at high tide -- the quickest way, if you're nimble and unladen. The walk will take you about 30 minutes from Ton Sai Village. You can also get a long tail boat taxi for about 60 baht.

Long Beach (Haad Yao)

This gorgeous stretch of brilliantly-white sand is only a ten-minute walk from the Arayaburi and Bay View resorts on the easternmost stretch of Ton Sai, just past Viking bungalows. It hosts six different resorts offering a very wide range of accommodation, and some of the best deals on Ko Phi Phi. This beach is sometimes congested with longtails, but when the waves are too rough for the boats, most operators won't venture here and instead drop off and pick up at Ao Poh, a seven-minute walk to the east over the headland. The going rate is 200 baht per person each way. If you book more than three days, some of the better spots here will throw in free transport -- though you're usually on your own getting back.

Soi Viewpoint

These places are in the middle of the isthmus, but closer to Ao Lo Dalam than Ao Ton Sai. The area and the road aren't known by any specific name, but keep asking where the view point is and you'll be headed in the right direction. We call it Soi Viewpoint here, but we just made that up.

On the way there from Ton Sai village you'll pass a triangular spot that's home to the wetlands area by the water treatment facility. Take the road to the left of the triangle. There are a gaggle of slap-dash, budget guesthouses in the area, most of which we can't recommend unless everything else is full. They all offer cramped doubles and some triples at competitive prices (around 300-600 baht depending on the season), but you'll get no views, no pool and the atmosphere will range from charmingly eccentric to just plain seedy. All these places will typically knock 100 baht off the price when business is slow.

Ton Sai Beach

There's no accommodation along the beach road heading east until you reach the headland upon which sits PP Don Chukit Restaurant, half a kilometre down. Thereafter, the resorts are packed together in a row, and it's hard to tell one from the next. Most of Ton Sai beach offers really lousy swimming -- the bay is a parking lot for longtails extruding petrol and debris into the water -- though it gets a little nicer as you approach the Bayview/Arayaburi resorts at the very end of the beach. For better swimming, head further east to one of the other beaches along the southern and eastern stretches of Ko Nai, or to the other side of the isthmus to Ao Lo Dalam.

Ao Poh

This small, picturesque and often overlooked bay is home to a single bungalow outfit. It's a seven-minute walk over the headland from the easternmost point on Long Beach (the road goes up the hill behind Phi Phi The Beach Resort). It's a good half-hour hike from start to finish from the Ton Sai pier -- but if you love to hike, it's quite an enjoyable trek. If you continue on 15 minutes or so, you'll pass the new gypsy village, and another beautiful, as-yet-undeveloped bay, Lo Moo Dee. The walkability makes it a good compromise if you want peace and quiet during the day yet want to party hard at night in the main town. The beaches further north which require a boat journey can cost as much as 800B to reach by longtail boat at night. One thing to bear in mind here is that we've had mixed reports about the ocean -- apparently it's full of nettles and urchins.

Pak Nam Beach

Another beautiful, overlooked beach, Pak Nam has only a single accommodation option, proving that Ko Phi Phi has not yet died the death of a thousand dive shops. As with all such beaches along the coast on the way to Laem Thong, there's great snorkelling, tons of peace and quiet and limited access to electricity. The beach is slightly more rocky than others, so perhaps not ideal for children or paddlers. Be prepared to pay 300 baht for a longtail taxi to Ton Sai.
