This mid-range hotel sits on Ko Phi Phi's Long Beach, one of the island's most stunning stretches of sand. The resort has a small pool and restaurant, but the cost of trips by boat into Koh Phi Phi's main town, Tonsai, will add up. Rooms and villas are spacious and include satellite TV and air-conditioning -- plus many have spectacular views of and immediate access to the beach -- and some villas come with a private [outdoor plunge pool](). The property itself isn't as charming as some of the more rustic hotels on the island, and guests looking for a more authentic jungle retreat may want to try Tohko Beach Resort.

The budget Phi Phi Island Cabana Hotel is nestled between two stunning beaches and conveniently located a three-minute walk to the ferry pier. The attractive pool is a highlight, but this expansive resort is showing its age in both public spaces and the 162 guest rooms. Bathrooms are especially dated, and there can be issues with the water supply, though the more modern suites feature lovely whirlpools. Housekeeping and maintenance also get poor reviews, and Wi-Fi can be spotty. Two restaurants serve local and international a la carte dishes, plus a free breakfast buffet. The quieter Phi Phi Island Village Beach Resort has more modern rooms, plus a spa, gym, and swim-up bar -- but rates are predictably higher.

Located on Ko Phi Phi Don's main party beach, Ibiza House Phi Phi is a "two-in-one" property: It's one part hostel, with dorms facing the bay, and one part villa resort, with freestanding bungalows in a garden pool setting. The hostel portion features bare-bones dorm rooms with shared bathrooms that can sleep up to 16 people, and a waterfront pool that hosts rowdy DJ pool parties three times a week. While hostel rooms have no amenities to speak of, each of the villas features a minibar, free coffee and tea, and a private bathroom and terrace. The beachfront location in Tonsai and the combination of room types makes this hotel a decent pick for a wide range of travelers, from hard-drinking backpackers to families. Travelers wanting a quieter in-town stay could look into Phi Phi Banyan Villa, on the opposite, non-party side of Tonsai.

Located south of Ko Phi Phi Don's main village, Phi Phi Paradise Pearl Resort is a rustic, low-on-frills property on the island's beautiful Long Beach. Its 47 units range from basic rooms to spacious and elegant bungalows that directly face the water. The picturesque bungalows are in better shape than the rooms, but all units are air-conditioned and have flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and outdoor space. The beautiful sandy beach, with an actual drop-off and waves, plus clear views of Ko Phi Phi Leh, is the resort's main feature, but there are also spa facilities, a beachfront restaurant serving free breakfast, and a minimart. For more modern rooms and a pool, consider Phi Phi Long Beach Resort & Villa, where rates are slightly higher.

Chaokoh Phi Phi Hotel & Resort is a 46-room hotel in Koh Phi Phi's main village, right across from the Tonsai Bay beach. The hotel's common areas and rooms have a bit more modern style than is typically found at area hotels, and each room comes with a flat-screen TV, a minibar, and a balcony or terrace. The hotel's beach-facing restaurant serves breakfast (but, unlike similar hotels in the area, it costs a fee) and fresh seafood for lunch and dinner. In all, this is a decent option for a modern in-town stay. Travelers wanting a remote resort away from town should look into Phi Phi Island Village Beach Resort.

A favorite among low-maintenance couples, Phi Phi Relax Beach Resort is a rustic tropical getaway that appeals to travelers looking to unplug from modern life. None of the traditional thatched roof bungalows have air-conditioning, and the resort's electricity is only switched on at night. Despite the old world trappings, creature comforts include a beach bar, beds with mosquito-net canopies, private balconies, and free Wi-Fi (when the power's on). After arriving on the island, guests must take another boat ride to reach the resort, or opt for an hour's trek on foot through the jungle -- but once there, the snorkeling is hard to beat.

Mama Beach Residence once had this quiet stretch of sand on Ton Sai Bay to itself, but the mid-range property has been joined by a large modern hotel right behind it. The simple white rooms still have most of the beach views to themselves though, and all come with furnished private patios. Decor is simple and rather stark, but pops of color are incorporated and they come with small flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi. There's no pool here, but guests can partake in a variety of water sports directly from the beach, and the included French breakfast is an added perk.

Perched on the hills above Laem Hin Beach, Arayaburi Resort - Phi Phi Island shares a lobby, facilities, and grounds with its sister property, the Phi Phi Bayview Resort. It has views of the bay from some of its air conditioned villas, but it's a steep climb uphill from reception to each of them. It's also a hike into town from here, so the location is less convenient for tourists and it can pricey for what you get. However, couples looking for a romantic getaway may be happy with the good balance of privacy and comfort. Though the rooms are smaller at Bayview, they are closer to the beach so travelers may want to consider this when booking.

The 30-room Phuphaya Seaview Resort is a good fit for budget travelers and partygoers. For everyone else, it's most likely a pass. Located on the northeast corner of Lo Dalum Bay, the rustic property offers gorgeous views of the turquoise water surrounded by mountains. These views are especially clear from the hotel's infinity pool and adjoining bar/restaurant. But that's where Phuphaya's positives end. Rooms range from fan-only units without hot water to air-conditioned bungalows with flat-screen TVs, hot water, and sea views. Guests who upgrade can be more satisfied with their experience, but past visitors are often still unhappy about hard beds, loud late-night noise from nearby bars, and the steep uphill climb from town. Cleanliness isn't a strong suit either; the infinity pool, one of the hotel's best assets, doesn't get regular maintenance. Phi Phi Banyan Villa is a more reliable pick.
