Bungalows, villas and hillside pool villas along a private 800-metre beach, in a quiet bay of Phi Phi Don.
- Private beach
- Two pools
- Restaurants
- Poolside drinks
Why we picked it
What convinced us is the setting: a long private beach in a quiet bay, bungalows and hillside pool villas among the coconut palms, and everything island life needs inside the grounds, from a dive centre and a spa to tennis and kayaks. We would book it for a Phi Phi stay with the beach as the plan, and a hillside pool villa for the view. The resort belongs to the SAii hotel collection, which also runs a resort on Koh Samui and the Maldives.
