    Some gaps in room walls, but was made of bamboo, so had a lizard friend, was lovely apart from this.

    It’s secluded, private beach. The staff were attentive and lovely. Can walk through jungle up to viewpoints. breakfast was lovely and so was the other food and drinks. Had a nice 2 day stay but felt this was enough time here.

    The transportation is tricky. The hotel only has 2 shuttles per day and the timings are not aligned with the ferry. If you get to the island any other time, it can be very expensive to find a boat that brings you to the hotel. You can get one easily, but it's expensive. The food at the hotel is also expensive comparing to other places in Thailand, but it's the only option and they know it.

    The place is very quiet and beautifu, very good facilities. The hotel staff are nice. They offer daily tours that are good as well. It's a nice place to relax.

    The accommodation was beyond basic - thank goodness there was a fan along with the Aircon. The shower room was very very very basic but just about functional. The doors didn't really meet so there were lots of bugs in the room. It would have been lovely to sit outside and enjoy the scenery but it was too hot - if there was a fan on the terrace it would be amazing. If you're not fit the hike up the hill to your room in that heat would be extremely difficult. Having said all this - we absolutely loved it and would go again but would pay for an upgrade if there is a choice.

    The staff were amazing - so so so friendly and helpful, as was the location- very secluded. The restaurant was excellent too as was the beach! A real jungle meets tropical beach vibe.

    There wasn't anything not to like. Longboat required to get into town so no walking to restaurants. Only one restaurant at the resort but the food was fabulous. Very good Thai food and a simple but nice breakfast as well. The beach is a bit rocky in places especially when the tide is out but the water is beautiful. If you are one who wants to party then this is probably not the resort for you. Quiet and romantic in a way that takes you back in time.

    The staff is very friendly and accommodating, this is the big draw here. It's quiet and quaint and isolated. Nice bamboo bungalows but a very simple and basic resort.

    There's no decent shuttle service to the village. The only options are shared boats at 8am and 12pm (200B pp) or private boat bookings (1000-1500B pb). Not a problem for short stays but when staying a bit longer you might want to try out a different place to eat or buy some groceries which quickly becomes expensive. Also be aware that the bungalows are poorly isolated which makes them quite noisy. Every boat passing by at the sea sounds like a lawn mower next to your bed.

    Beautiful place a bit off the beaten track with nice beach. Lovely bungalows and friendly staff!

    The room we were staying in was a little different from advertised, but this didn’t affect our stay. Sunbeds on the beach rather than chairs would also be a great addition.

    Beautiful views of the sea from the bedroom. Very helpful staff!

    The hotel was only reachable by taxi boat, which is amazing to closer to nature. However past 5pm, the hotel’s taxi boat can’t be used to go the center.

    The hotel was beautiful. It consists in several huts close to the jungle and the beach. Staff was also very nice.

    The actual bungalows are very basic but so authentic. The water was a little yellow from iron so not for those seeking luxury and mod cons

    This remote place on Phi Phi is so perfect and a complete paradise. Away from all the hussle and bussle. We basically had the place to ourselves. The staff are unbelievably friendly and so sweet who make you feel like royalty. Snorkelling here has the most amazing coral and I couldn't tell you how many different species of fish I saw, I loved it and was in the sea most of the day. Food and drink very nice

    Food. The breakfast standard was very, very low, practically no choice and poor quality. There is no alternative in this remote area. The mattresses are hard and not very comfortable

    the cottages are nice and well located. Very nice views. The house has the most important things, fridge, air conditioning, etc. the facility's service was very nice.

    Only one minor thing I'd say, if you were stopping here for more than 3 nights you may struggle with the choice for meals of an evening with not the biggest menu.

    Everything, the views, the beautiful huts/villas, the amazing staff, the tranquility. This place was that good we added an extra night to our stay. Also the food was so tasty. Pure bliss.

    Too far from the main town so there wasn’t anything to do. Outside our room was a large tree which unfortunately obscured our “ocean view.” There was also only the hotel restaurant that was easily accessible - it was a lot much expensive than nicer restaurants in town. A
