Location
Nestled in a tranquil and scenic corner of Phi Phi, Phi Phi Phu Chalet Resort offers a quintessential retreat that is perfect for those seeking peace and natural beauty. The resort is situated away from the hustle and bustle of the island’s center, providing a quiet, intimate setting where guests can truly disconnect from the noise. With rooms directly facing the sea and stunning views from the upper-level villas, the setting is both picturesque and serene.

The surrounding area is authentically Thai, featuring a small village just a 10-minute walk away. This nearby village boasts a variety of local restaurants, bars and mini-markets, allowing guests to enjoy local flavors and atmosphere without having to venture far. The resort is also close to several beautiful beaches, making it easy to explore the coastal beauty of the region.

While the location is remote and can only be reached by boat, the tranquility and stunning natural environment offer a perfect escape from the more tourist-packed areas. The resort’s peaceful setting, away from crowds and clubs, ensures a relaxed experience with ample opportunities for snorkeling and enjoying the serene sea views. For couples and travelers looking for a secluded paradise, Phi Phi Phu Chalet Resort is ideal for relaxation and soaking in the idyllic surroundings.

Breakfast
For guests at Phi Phi Phu Chalet Resort, breakfast experiences seem to vary. Many guests appreciated the quality and taste, often describing it as delicious with great views accompanying their meals. Highlights included omelettes, pancakes, French toast, fruits and cereals, which received particular praise for their flavor.

However, a common point of feedback was the limited selection and lack of variety. While some found the breakfast hearty and satisfying, others felt it could be more diverse and abundant. The à la carte menu, though customizable, didn't offer a wide range of options. Some guests noted the breakfast was nice but simple and a few mentioned it was repetitive over their stay.

Despite a few critiques about the limited choice, the breakfast generally left guests pleased with both the food quality and the picturesque setting in which they could enjoy their meal. Overall, while improvements could be made in variety, the breakfast at Phi Phi Phu Chalet Resort largely contributes to a positive dining experience during one's stay.

Service at the restaurant has been described as polite and unobtrusive, contributing to a pleasant dining atmosphere. The food, ranging from breakfast to dinner, consistently receives praise for being very delicious and fresh. An added bonus is the great view of the sea available from the dining area, enhancing the overall dining experience.

However, some reviews mention that the restaurant can be less cozy due to it not being very busy at times and a few guests found the food to be just okay or mediocre. Despite these occasional criticisms, the general consensus is that the hotel's restaurant is very good, if not excellent.

For those looking to explore beyond the resort, there are excellent local restaurants just a short walk away, offering fantastic dining experiences and authentic Thai flavors at similar prices. This allows guests to enjoy a variety of culinary delights during their stay on the island.

Some rooms boast great beds with views overlooking the sea, enhancing the overall experience.

Beach
Phi Phi Phu Chalet Resort offers a distinctive coastal experience, although it lacks a dedicated, expansive beach directly in front of the hotel. Instead, guests have access to several nearby options with two particularly notable beaches just a short distance away. While the small beach adjacent to the hotel is appreciated for its snorkeling and kayaking opportunities, it can disappear with the rising tide and occasionally needs cleaning.

Access to the hotel itself requires a journey by long-tail boat, adding a layer of adventure. However, reaching and departing from the boat can involve wading through thigh-deep water. For those seeking sandy shores, a ten-minute walk will lead to a closer beach, while a scenic 20-minute walk through a forest will bring guests to one of the island’s premier beaches.

Though the immediate area does not boast an extensive beach, the small stretch of sand nearby offers beautiful views and is perfect for snorkeling. However, for comfortable swimming and more beach amenities, guests are encouraged to explore the surrounding areas. The resort’s immediate beach may be rocky and somewhat challenged in cleanliness, but the nearby beaches compensate with their beauty and the range of activities available.

Finally, the resort itself is praised for its stunning sea views from both rooms and the restaurant, adding to the overall serene and picturesque environment that guests enjoy during their stay.
