Description
This collection of wooden bungalows located among stone-work steps on the hillside is just the kind of thing Ton Sai village needs but never seems to provide. The bungalows have beautiful interiors with lots of creative touches, green things growing from sconces on the walls, and raised platforms that are half-day bed for lounging, half mattress for sleeping. There are good jungle toilets as well. It's a pity they don't have a pool, but otherwise this place runs a close second to Tropical Garden Bungalows, visible from here across the valley on the opposite hill. It's one of the few places on Phi Phi with a true guesthouse feel to it, like you'd find elsewhere in Thailand. It's a family-run place that closed for seven months after the tsunami, so try to be forgiving if you find one or two things here and there are still a bit rough around the edges. We suspect this place will do quite well indeed come the high season.

The staff were always smiling and wanting to help us with anything. Met us at the pier and dropped our bags off again when we left. We paid 1500baht for 3 people per night, great comfy rooms. Would definately stay again.. Nice quite spot too

Most beautiful bungalow -
By ElisabethGliesche ( total comments: 6 ) Stayed here 9/2007
This was simply the most beautiful bungalow we stayed in during our entire trip: Spacious, all wooden, great decorations and really nice people. Plus: they don't have a restaurant so you're free to buy food on the market and enjoy it on your porch. It far from all the hustle and bustle of Phi Phi Town which makes it calmingly quiet (apart from the early morning rooster) but also envolves a lot of walking back and forth. Still, if you (have to) stay in Phi Phi Town, go here!!

Tropical Garden Bungalows
Up the hill at the end of the viewpoint road, Ko Phi Phi
The bungalows here get the aesthetics just right. They're rustic without being too shabby, made of teak wood, spacious and full of that 'bungalow in the jungle' atmosphere. The cheaper rooms have mattresses on the floor without bed-frames, with very good mosquito netting provided, and bathrooms of... more
Garden Home
Viewpoint Rd, Ko Phi Phi
There's no pool, there aren't any views, and there are only seven rooms, but in every other way this place is the cream of the crop in terms of bungalows in the viewpoint area. The rooms are artistically designed and well-furnished with great attention to detail, and each one is unique. They are... more
Garden Inn
161 Moo 7, Ko Phi Phi
Located near the end of the viewpoint road at the base of the hill, this place is a vast improvement over what you'll find on your way up the road. Quite decent bungalows in a sort of a garden spot. They have hard wood floors and stay cool during the day. All have safes and private baths. Some of... more
J. J. Bungalow
The Ao Lo Dalam/Ton Sai Road, Ko Phi Phi
There are two outfits named J.J. Bungalows -- the other offers bamboo bungalows and is next to J.J. Guesthouse in Ton Sai village, run by the same owner. The bungalows are resort-style affairs of concrete construction set on a very steep hillside with views of the valley and the viewpoint hill on... more
