Phi Phi Ba Kao Bay Resort

Just a short walk from the Loh Ba Koh Bay beach, this hotel is perfectly situated for anyone looking to enjoy the sun, sand, and sea. The complimentary longboat pick-up from the ferry was a fantastic start to my trip, and we were also met with a motorbike with a sidecar to the resort. The room I stayed in featured a lovely balcony that allowed for a refreshing breeze throughout the day. It was the ideal spot to enjoy a morning coffee or unwind in the evening while soaking up the stunning views. The housekeeping staff did a wonderful job, ensuring that my room was cleaned and refreshed daily, making my stay comfortable and pleasant. The front of house staff were also really helpful and knowledgable on island trips, and nothing was too much trouble. The resort's location is another highlight. As well as being a few minutes from a white sand beach, with shallow calm water (perfect for our young children), the hotel is also walking distance of various restaurants, a newsagent, and laundry services made my stay incredibly convenient. I enjoyed exploring the local dining options and bars.

Amazing out of the party place vibe. Quite little village with everything you will need. It’s out the way (which is what we liked) there is a free boat to and from the hotel, when you check in and check out. Otherwise you will have to ask if there are guests checking in or out to get the free boat. We found a boat taxi for 1500 tbh to the hotel if there isn’t a free one. The staff are very friendly, we will be back!

The Tonsai Pier area on the Phi Phi Islands can be a little busy and crowded however, these bungalows are located in Phi Phi Village in the north which is a lovely, relaxing area still with a number of small restaurants, shops, bars and cafes! Management were happy to arrange free long boat rides to/from Phi Phi Village to the Tonsai Pier area, often with a nice motorbike and sidecar ride too which saves a ten minute walk! Staff were all so friendly, asking how my day had been, offering a motorbike ride to the nearby beach without me even asking! Nui Beach was really close by and after talking to some locals I was pointed in the direction of a short but steep trail just over the hill from Loh Lana Bay, definitely recommend, beautiful beach! It is also walkable following the trail across the island to get over to the main town and Tonsai Pier area but this can take 90 minutes or longer and is a jungle path on parts with the occasional monkey, mosquito etc. The views from the viewpoints are incredible though, well worth a hike! The bungalows are very spacious inside with a lovely seating and decking area outside. There is plenty of furniture inside to put luggage and clothes, even a clothes airer to dry wet clothes. After staying in a number of hotels and apartments on this same trip, it was lovely to have a detached bungalow which really helps have a good night's sleep without any noise! Overall a really great, relaxing stay with an amazing location and opportunity to really see the Phi Phi Islands and not just the main town like some of the day trips offer!!

It was an amazing weekend!! The manager awesome guy makes everything possible for the best satisfaction for the clients the room is the best choices in whole thailand that we are spending from 21 days so far!! Extra highly recommended you should visit also the Buffalo bar with the amazing bartender-server that he is the life of this bar!! Don't spend your money in faceless accommodations and try the bakao resort the luxury bungalow and don't hesitate to ask the manager to help you in everything you are gonna need and you won't regret it!! Thank you so much!

the local village is so authentic and the beach incredible. The resort is very simple, without the restaurant but is very easy to have breakfast in the morning nearby. If you like Thailand you like also this kind of simple accommodation
