Pros:

Le personnel était adorable,
L’emplacement était top pour nous ! Ravis d’être loin des foules de Koh Phiphi et au cœur de ce village local
La piscine est un +
Frigo avec bouteilles d’eau et bouilloire dispo dans les chambres

Les salles de bain mériteraient un peu plus de nettoyage
Pas de wifi disponible dans les chambres mais fonctionne très bien à la réception

When we arrived to the island the transfer was not there to pick us up, we had to wait on the beach for nearly 2 hours.
Pros:

Friendly at check in and provide transfer service to and from the beach

Cons:

When we arrived to the island the transfer was not there to pick us up, we had to wait on the beach for nearly 2 hours. When we got to the room there was no running water to the shower or taps for several hours, when we had water there was a constant leak from the piper under the sink. There are no sun loungers by the pool as shown on the images. The room was dirty, pillow cases, mattress and bed cover all stained, bed uncomfortable, the garden / terrace was not private and we had people walking through during the day / evening. There was never anyone on reception and when you tried to contact them via WhatsApp there was no answer. We found several cockroaches in the room, we tried to contact reception to change room but there was no answer. Definitely would not stay here again.

A great location on the quieter side of the island, making for a very peaceful stay.
Pros:

It is located on a quiet side of the island, very relaxed location which we really enjoyed. There are ample restaurants on your doorstep with fantastic food. 3 minute walk from a beautiful, quiet beach.

Cons:

The hotel is located very close to a mosque, so there is a call to prayer 3 times a day, including 5am. This did wake us up the first couple of nights, but once we bought earplugs it was fine. Just something to be aware of if you are a light sleeper.

In order to get to the hotel you have to walk through the sea to a long tail boat which brings you to the side of the island so make sure your luggage is something you’re able to carry.

Also bed is very firm.

Pros:

Welcoming friendly staff, next to restaurants and 3 minute walk to a lovely beach.

Cons:

There is no WiFi in any of the rooms only in the reception area - was very misleading and disappointed with this. Pool is a lovely bonus but no sun loungers on it just a slab on concrete. Location has pros and cons - pros: you are in a beautiful secluded location. Cons: this is based on the other side of the island and only way to get there is by boat. Once there you cannot really get back the main part of phi phi without paying at least 800 baht for a taxi boat (very choppy) if you wish to get back.

Side Note: unrelated to hotel but at the beach we were made to feel very unwelcome by the security of the ‘luxury resort’. You can’t walk along the beach and can only sit down at the entrance as the security guard followed us and demanded we return back to ‘our part’ for having a walk along the beach. Be prepared for that but it is a beautiful beach.
