Chunut House
A good spot
What we say: 
The location isn't the greatest with respect to the beach, but the hilly rock-garden grounds are well-shaded, the welcome is warm and the staff particularly helpful. Chunut's collection of bungalows, located among stonework steps on the hillside, is just the kind of thing Ton Sai village needs but never seems to provide. Bungalow interiors display creative touches such as green things growing from sconces on the walls and raised platforms that are half-day bed for lounging, half mattress for sleeping. Some air-con bungalows add value to their basic fan operations. The air-con offerings come with TV and hot water. It's a pity they don't have a pool, but otherwise this is one of the few places on Phi Phi with a true guesthouse feel to it. Tucked away to the right side of the valley and up on the side of the hill, it's about 10 minutes' walk from the centre of Ton Sai and the beach. Definitely ask for a discount in low season — we were offered a room for 1,000 baht.

Like living in a tree house!!
I stayed here for 8 sleeps in November 2009 and it was so great! they'll pick you up from the port and carry your bags, clean the room every day, fold the towels into swans, all very cute! The bungalows are spaced out enough so you have plenty of privacy and they're all on different levels so you still get great views. it really is like being in a tree house, ace! About 5 mins walk from the edge of the town and 10 from the middle of town. would definately recommend. you book by emailing chunuthouse@hotmail.com, i think we paid about £45 a night, high season. the only downer is walking past the islands waste area on the way, pooey, good holding your breath practice for diving though.... ps. wear mosquito repellant!

Well designed bungalows in garden setting.
We stayed 1 night, dbl fan room with private bathroom and balcony, 1200B. Lots of tropical vegetation around the beautifully crafted bamboo bungalows on a hillside, made them feel isolated from each other. They have a restaurant now, but could still feel free to enjoy food from elsewhere on your private balcony. Ring ahead to be picked up from from the pier. 5 minute walk to beach and markets, at least 10 mins to pier.

Excellent Place
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
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!!
