• this is paradise

  this place is paradise!! you can only get there by a longtailboat but when you arrive at koh phiphi you will find one straight away. and for about 200 bath they will bring you there. when you arrive you will see your own private beach and a beautifull resort! the place is very clean and the staff is good. just a few meters from the beach you will see lots and lots of fish so go snorkeling there!!

• A little paradise!

  Stayed for a few days in 2007 and absolutely loved it! Lovely, secluded place with a wonderful beach with some deckchairs and hammocks to relax in. Great food (try the no-name chicken) and cocktails! Staff very friendly and helpful. They already had internet when we were there but only one rather slow computer, at the restaurant. Bungalows are basic (mosquito net, fan included) but idyllic with nice ocean view. Make sure to take a hike up to the viewpoint (staff will explain how to get there) to watch the sunset. (You can also stay overnight at the viewpoint itself. highly recommended for one night of peace and quiet with a great view all over the island!)

• Good for a short stay

  We came to Phi Phi Relax by way of a friend's recommendation to come visit them while they were staying here. The resort was completely booked, but they do have about six tents for rent already set up with mattresses and bedding (400B). This was a great option for us as we were on more of a longer (therefore: more budgeted) trip than our friends who had the upper bungalow (nice bungalow, but quite hot at night when they turn off the power). They have internet access now. The food is great, and the prices are equivalent to restaurants at the pier. Breakfast is about 100B (coffee alone is 60B - for instant coffee!! and you only get half a mug). You can always eat boiled rice and chicken for 60B, but expect to pay 150-300B for a regular meal. The food is good though and the portions big. One to three days is the perfect length to stay at Relax.

• A beautiful, secluded paradise

  My girlfriend and I stayed here three weeks ago and wish we were still there. We arrived at Ton Sai pier and were greeted by one of the resort staff, shortly after they take you to the resort by long tail boat which takes about 30 mins. The rooms are basic though they are fairly big and clean. No hot water full stop and no electricity till the sun goes down. The beds are comfortable and have a full mosquito net (no brown, lumpy pillows here). The restaurant area is spot on, great food, it almost feels like a Thai home from home with the relaxed, chilled out atmosphere. The bar here will also make any cocktail possible, and if 'Guy' the barman doesnt know how to, you can get behind the bar and do it yourself. Other facilities include internet, beach games, taxi boat to tonsai in morning and afternoon, arranged day trips and snorkelling. As it was the low season we didn't have trouble booking. Much nicer than busy town. A must visit for people seeking the real Phi Phi and great service.

• Beautiful but...

  A friend and I stayed at Relax Beach resort and had different expectations. It is BEAUTIFUL and wonderful along the beach, but very quiet and family oriented. If peace and quiet is what you're looking for, this is a great place. It is about 30 to 40 minutes away from the main town by long-tail boat so difficult to get back from at night (and expensive) if you are planning on going out in the main town. NOT recommended if you are looking for single, more lively atmosphere. The food is okay, very expensive considering what you generally pay. They organise two long-tail boat rides to/from the main town per day at 150 Baht per person. Otherwise, you pay 500 Baht (daytime/evening). We spent about 800 Baht getting back to the resort each night (after hours). We were quoted different prices by the resort so a bit dodgy. Accomodations are very minimal - only electricity (by generator) from 6pm-3am. No flushing toilet, shower in bathroom. Beautiful, just keep expectations in mind.

• Relax Beach Resort

  We spent six weeks in Thailand and visited four different islands. We liked Phi Phi Relax Beach Resort the best. The name describes the best this resort. There are presently 18 bungalows situated on a beautiful sandy beach. They all have a sea view. This is the only resort in Pak Nam bay. The resort's long boat goes twice a day to Ton Sai if you want to go shopping or have some noisy fun. Snorkeling is great. You don't have to take an excursion as the best snorkeling is at your front door. Food was good and the staff very friendly. If you want to get away from it all this is the best place. You can socialise with a nice group of people or chose to be left alone to enjoy this great resort and its beach. I strongly recommend it.

• Best place to stay in Phi Phi

  We have just left Relax Beach Resort and already want to be back there! Fantastic location, with its own private beach. The staff were more than helpful and extremely friendly and welcoming. The food and drink was fantastic. They do have internet facilities available at the resort. The rooms were great, all with brilliant views of the beach...can't rate it highly enough. Definitely recommend it!!

• Best place on Phi Phi

  Staff friendly and efficient, English good, great service. Bit expensive but worth it, especially for what you get, bungalows in second row are bit cheaper and just as good as front row. You get your own bungalow, spacious and has a balcony and unit was spotless. Bed was good and firm with decent pillows, towels good. Quiet. The bar played some music at night but not till too late. Bathroom bit dark but clean and pretty big, non-flush western toilet and cold shower. Our bungalow had two electrical outlets, the electricity at the resort is only switched on once it gets dark though. No internet facilities but plenty of internet cafes are in Ko Phi Phi town. Only one restaurant, bit pricy but well worth the expense, big portions and excellent food. The bar serves the best cocktails and fruit shakes we had while in Thailand. You run a tab during your stay and pay for everything once you leave. Cheap laundry service available. No international payphone at resort but plenty at Ko Phi Phi town. Much better option than staying in town, there's only about 20 bungalows so even when the resort is full you don't feel overrun by tourists and you have a good stretch of beach which is never packed.
