The hype
Guests are blown away by the room size and pool views but consistently disappointed by the aging maintenance and lackluster breakfast.
Phi Phi Cliff Beach Resort
$60-170 / noite
Reservar se You want the most Instagrammable cliffside pool in Phi Phi and don't mind a steep climb or skipping the hotel breakfast.
Por Que As Pessoas Adoram
- Stunning panoramic views of Ton Sai Bay from the pool and upper floors
- Spacious rooms (approx. 72m²) that feel huge compared to island standards
- Located at the quiet end of the bay, away from the thumping bass of Loh Dalum party beach
Resumo Rápido: A hotel with five-star views trapped in a three-star building that's slowly losing its battle against humidity and monkeys.
Revisado por @Enesbasakk: I spent hours just floating in this pool watching the boats go by. The view of the cliffs is honestly even better in person. It’s the perfect spot to just disconnect and breathe, even on a cloudy day.

Reality check
The photos look pristine, but in person, you'll spot peeling paint, worn furniture, and cigarette butts around the pool deck.
- You prioritize ocean views over perfect service
- You want a quiet sleep environment away from the main party strip
- You are fit enough to handle steep stairs daily

- There is no alcohol sold on-site, but you can buy it at nearby marts.
O que levar

Room Genie
Melhores escolhas

FAQ e dicas ocultas
Tudo o que você realmente quer saber antes de reservar.
Is the walk from the pier difficult?
It's a 10-15 minute walk. The first part is flat through town, but the final approach to the hotel is steep/uphill.
Is the pool water clean?
Generally yes, but guests frequently complain about the pool deck being dirty or having loose tiles.
Do they serve lunch and dinner?
Technically yes, but most guests skip it. The restaurant is best known for a mediocre breakfast; eat in town for other meals.
Is there an elevator?
Yes, but it is slow and occasionally out of service, forcing guests to use the stairs.
Are the monkeys dangerous?
They can be aggressive if they see food. Keep balcony doors locked even when you are inside.
Does the hotel provide beach towels?
Yes, beach towels are provided for use at the pool and the small beach strip in front.
Dicas de Insiders
- ✨
The 'private beach' in front is rocky and disappears at high tide; walk 10 mins to Nice Beach or Long Beach for better swimming.
- ✨
Don't leave swimwear drying on the balcony overnight—monkeys have been known to steal it.
- ✨
The 7-Eleven is a 10-minute walk away, so stock up on water/snacks before heading back to the room for the night.
5 coisas que deve saber antes de partir

💡Shower pressure fluctuates wildly depending on how many people are using water.
💡The air conditioning units can be loud and rattle, struggling against the humidity.
💡You might find ants in the room if you leave even a crumb of food out.
💡The 'cliff' location means mobile data signals can sometimes be spotty in back rooms.
