The hassle of moving all the luggage from land to boat and then into the moterbikes and walking the way to the resort is a bit troublesome and inconvenient.

The place is located in a village away from the main Phi Phi city Center… the hotel offers a free pick and drop facility by boat… it’s around 20 mins away from The main Phi Phi pier…

Very nice property on a quiet side of Phi Phi.

Not a major downside but be prepared to pay 1500 baht to get a boat back to the hotel of an evening if you visit the other part of Phi Phi in the night. Otherwise the boat is 200 baht when provided by the hotel.

Location, peaceful, clean, pool

No new bottle of water and no cleaning for two nights.

Very great location, we discovered a calm part of Koh Phi Phi, with a beautiful not busy beach. The pool is great and the room is clean. The transfer from the prier was very cool.

It was very expensive and hard to get the the main island if you wanted to go there for dinner or anything

I like the little island it was on

Stayed in January 2024

The wifi could be faster, and the transfer from the pier can be challenging if you have suitcases. We also had to wait for an hour in the heat until our transfer boat came to take us. But iverall impression of the hostel is very good, I recommend it for sure!

We had a really nice time here! The place is located in a very calm part of the island, but with plenty of cafes around. There are beautiful beaches to swim and the famous Nui beach is just 20 minutes away by walking! It is clean in the room, and the pool was a big plus! The staff is very friendly and welcoming! It's a perfect place to stay away from the noise and parties. Plus, you can take island trips and excursions right next the hostel for prices, better than in the main island :)

We feel travelers, particularly those with luggage to carry, should be informed that the boat transfer service offered by the property is very inconvenient at low tide if you have heavy and/or numerous bags to carry. After arriving at Tonsai beach, you must walk to Lo Dalum beach on the other side of the island (+/- 5 minutes) and then walk out across the tidal flat and then in the water up to your knees to reach the boat that will take you to Lana beach on the west side of the island and near the property. From there, assistance was provided to carry bags from the boat to a 3-wheel Tuk-tuk that carried all bags to the property. Other than this inconvenience, we enyoyed our stay at Hip Resort @ Phi Phi and would recommend it to other travelers who do not (like us) wish to be among the masses and noise of Lo Dalum and Tonsai.

We enjoyed the quiet location of the Hip Resort & Phi Phi. The staff were always available, helpful and friendly. The room was very comfortable and clean. We ate in local restaurants and found everything we needed in the village shops and restaurants. The travel agent next door organized a private longtail boat excursion for us to visit Koh Phi Phi Leh and some nearby areas on Koh Phi Phi Don. The Hip Resort @ Phi Phi is located on the northeastern coast of Koh Phi Phi, and you must take a longtail boat to reach the accommodation. The beaches near the property are ok, but the best beach nearby, in our opinion, is Laem Tong beach that can be reached by foot in 25 to 30 minutes by following a good cement path/narrow road or by taking a 3-wheel Tuk-tuk taxi. It can probably also be reached by longtail boat. Great place to swim, particularly at high tide. We recommend Hip Resort @ Phi Phi to other travelers visiting Koh Phi Phi Don and who wish to avoid the throngs of people and noise one finds at Tonsai and Lo Dalum beaches.

Nothing as such but could benefit from small improvements in the pool area. Maybe a chair for the patio could make the stay more comfortable

pricey considering this resort isn't closer to the main phi phi pier. you need to take another boat from the phi phi pier to Loh lana bay and walk approx 1km to reach here on the day of our return to phuket, the water level on loh lana bay was very low that the boats for transporting us back to phi phi pier couldn't come close to the shore. we had to walk with luggages on our heads and shoulders for more 500 metres in the sea water with water till our knees you can prefer this if you are travelling to phi phi with less luggage fyi this isn't the same as "Hip Seaview resort" in Google maps. this is "Hip hotel"

well maintained clean rooms good pool

Stayed in November 2023

The mattress I was sleeping on was very uncomfortable and was concave. The door to our room didn't lock. But we had no troubles with stealing so it was fine.

The staff were so friendly and helpful, they really made us feel comfortable. I liked that instead of the crazy hustle and bustle of the main part of the island, we had our own little getaway in this secluded part of the island.

Stayed in November 2023

The pool didn’t have sun loungers/umbrellas like the photo (looked very dull) Getting to the main area of phi phi is expensive, 400 baht for one person one way on a longtail boat or an hour and half jungle trek The walls were thin so you could hear what other people were up to… Just be aware that there are prayers called from a mosque nearby, so at 5am this can wake you up.

Located in the small phi phi village area, so very quiet and peaceful Staff were friendly, and offered free pick up and drop off during check in and out :) The room was basic, had what you needed and clean. The AC worked really well. Local beach nearby is stunning (loh ba kao bay)

Stayed in November 2023

It's in the north part of the island so you should now you need to take a boat to arrive to the center (Tonsai), or do 1 hour jungle trekking, however it's more calmed and relaxed and it is just close a restaurants zone, so actually you will not need to go to the center unless you want specifically to see Tonsai beaches.

Nice Staff Big room Near Nui Beach which is a must visit for sunset They offer shuttle free service on checkin and check out. The rest of the days they offer shuttle service to Tonsai at two times (7:30 am and 11:00 am) for only 200 bats.

Cleaning service could be better, pool area needs an upgrade - I booked this stay because of the main picture of the pool, but in reality there´s no sunbeds and it looks a little run down...

Nice owners, always happy to help. Nice big condo with a terrace, calm neighborhood, 5 min walk from the beach.

Need to get boat taxi to get to Koh Phi Phi (my fault for not reading properly the location) Reception staff often aren’t available.

Very clean rooms Good size pool

The stay was an additional ferry ride away from the main town of Phi Phi. So this place is not meant for groups looking to stay where the parties are at. The additional rides are also very uncomfortable for anyone travelling with lots of luggage. And any movement to the main town area incurs a steep cost to travel by ferry.

The shuttle service provided by the resort was complimentary and hence appreciated. The resort was located away from the mainland and hence it was calm and relaxing. The stay was comfortable and the amenities provided were satisfactory. The hosts were accommodating and polite.

• we were not far from the tower from which day and night (actually at 6 in the morning) a dude sang Islamic prayers through the gramophone, which looks indecent and obtrusive minor: • weak wifi in the room • tv has no hdmi

good room with air conditioning, refrigerator, TV, its own mini-veranda overlooking the garden, fresh water bathroom, there is a not big communal pool

Because it's not in the main part of the island, you need to travel by boat to get there. The hotel does have a boat ferry, which is free for the trip there, and away but has a fee other times. While I was there there seemed to be an issue with the boat - not being there when they were supposed to, charging 150 baht when the hotel told us it was 100. I think this was an issue with the boatman, not the hotel so hopefully they'll find another boatman. Also be careful not to arrange anything on Ton Sai outside of the hotel's normal ferry hours - to get to the pier at 7am cost 700 baht ...

Lovely little place to stay, with really nice amenities, including a lovely porch sitting area. Lots of neighbourhood cats to pat! The staff were all lovely, lent out snorkel equipment and helped to arrange boat travels to Ton Sai, and onwards off Phi Phi. The village was also really nice - much less busy than Ton Sai, but plenty of restaurants to choose from. The accommodation was 5 minute walk from the beach, where there were lots of fish to spy on. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Cockroaches and ants all in the room and no staff to contact about it until our last day. They also didn’t reply to any messages.

Pool was nice but had to share it with the other resort.

The “free shuttle” guy “waiting at the pier” was not there so had to pay fixed price £30 to get to the hotel. Understand the room are meant to be minimal, but they have gone too far and it’s genuinely nice to be in the room. It has a dank smell and the patio door was sealed shut. In the way back into mainland the free shuttle guy basically crashed in a pole

Pool is nice

Not really anything to do with the property. Just be aware that there is a boat that you will need to get to go across to this side of the island and the tide is low past midday so you will have to walk in the water up to your thighs for quite some time to get on and off the boat which isn’t ideal if you have a suitcase or a very heavy bag. You may also want to wear shorts.

I really loved our stay here. The staff were friendly, it was a great location if you are looking to stay away from the hustle and bustle of phi phi and it was great value for money. The room was nice and clean and fit the aesthetic of being on an island yet was still new looking in a sense. I absolutely loved the restaurant next door, the food was 10/10 and the vibe was also 10/10. They give you pens to write on their wall and games to play whilst you relax and have a drink/eat some food. We ate here both evenings! We were so sad to leave and will definitely stay here again if we come back to phi phi. It’s also only a 3 minute walk to the local beach which is really nice in the evening to sit and listen to the waves.
