Where to stay
Our independent picks, from beachfront luxury to great-value bases.
Koh Phi Phi is a chain of six limestone islands in Thailand's Andaman Sea, located between Phuket and Krabi. Famous for Maya Bay (made iconic by 'The Beach'), turquoise lagoons, world-class snorkeling reefs and dramatic karst cliffs, Phi Phi attracts over 2 million travelers a year. The two main islands are Phi Phi Don (the only inhabited one — beaches, restaurants, dive shops, hotels) and Phi Phi Leh (uninhabited national park, where Maya Bay and Pileh Lagoon are). From our base on Phi Phi Don, we operate excursions to every corner of the archipelago — from sunrise tours that beat the day-trip crowds to multi-day private boat charters.
High season runs from November to April: dry weather, calm seas, but more crowds and higher prices. Shoulder months (October, May) offer the best balance — fewer tourists, occasional showers, lower hotel rates. Maya Bay closes during peak monsoon (typically August-September) for reef recovery. For diving, March-May has the clearest visibility. For families, November-February has the most consistent weather.
