Arayaburi Resort and Bay View Resort

Great views, expansive resort

What we say:

The reception for Arayaburi actually looks after two properties belonging to the same owner, Bayview and Arayaburi, with the former being the older and slightly more affordable of the two. Between them they cover an expansive section of the hillside fronting onto and overlooking Ton Sai Bay. While the Arayaburi rooms are the better, they are a long, long way from reception (though closer to the off-the-beach swimming pool), so keep that in mind. Rooms are well sized, with large terrace verandas, air-con and TV, with the prices rising the closer you get to the water. The resort is backed by a good section of Phi Phi forest giving it the feeling of being wedged between the jungle and the sea. It's a pretty, and very popular spot, but their high season rates are pretty cheeky. If we were to stay here we'd wager Arayaburi is worth the extra money. Expect some racket in the evening from the bars on Ton Sai Beach.

Pricy but good

Staff is plentiful and friendly. Being a family with 3 small kids we got one of the larger bungalows with 2 extra beds and that worked out fine. Nice pool and good breakfast buffet. Basically what you expect for an international class Resort. There's not much beach, you have to book a long tail @ 1200 baht / 3hr to get to some interesting snorkeling. Location is great, away from the buzz but just a 10 minute walk from lots of shopping and restaurants. We stayed over Christmas and come away with a feeling that it's just too expensive for what you get. All in all we ended up paying 6000 bath/night including the two extra beds and breakfast. The Christmas dinner/party on dec 24 was compulsory and much too expensive (2000 baht/adult, half price for kids).
