Phi Phi Sunset Bay Resort, Phi Phi Island

4.1(423 reviews)

Phi Phi Sunset Bay Resort offers a low-key alternative to the busier parts of Phi Phi Island, with a collection of bungalow-style accommodations set along the waterfront. Some rooms feature sea views, making it a practical base for travellers who want straightforward, unfussy lodging in one of Thailand's most scenic island destinations. An on-site restaurant means guests have a convenient dining option without needing to venture far. The atmosphere here leans toward the relaxed and unpretentious, suiting independent travellers and couples who are more interested in the surrounding natural beauty than resort-style amenities. With the Andaman Sea as the backdrop, the location offers easy access to the island's renowned snorkelling spots, viewpoints, and beaches that Phi Phi is known for. Good to know: Phi Phi Island is most accessible between November and April, when seas are calmer and ferry services run more reliably from Krabi and Phuket. During the May to October low season, some island businesses reduce their hours or close entirely, so it is worth contacting the resort directly via their website before booking to confirm availability and current services. Given the resort's relatively small scale, booking in advance is advisable during peak season.
