Not my idea of a holiday..
Date: 20 Jan 2012
My partner and I spent 3 nights in January 2012 here and we're disappointed. Our room was the furthest from reception and restaurant. It was quite a mission to get to and from our room on narrow paths...

No electricity when we first arrived

I wasn't expecting 5 star but gee if I really wanted a trekking holiday, with no electricity and cold water I would be out in the mountains in new zealand some where. Our welcome to our room was poor,...

Good points and bad points
Date: 08 Nov 2011
This place had good and bad points. First off, its right on the beach which is really nice but all the villas are scattered up on the mountain so its really a trek to leave your room and go into the...

Simple and Lovely

The Best Resort on Ko Phi Phi Don!
Date: 22 Aug 2011
My husband and I stayed at Arayaburi Resort in May 2011. At first, when the tuk-tuk drove us to our villa upon arrival, we thought "What did we get ourselves into?" The villa was high up a steep...

Ok location, terrible service.
Date: 15 Jun 2010
We stayed here on the last few nights of our honey moon in a Deluxe villa type set up. The location was far enough away from town to be nice and quite but just a little bit too far to walk into town...

EXCELLENT PLACE
Date: 20 May 2010
Arayaburi is located on the northeast point of Ko Phi Phi Don. The accomodation is adequate and the service and staff all very friendly.

A perfect hideaway and base for exploring some beautiful islands

Arayaburi is located on the northeast point of koh samui. The accomodation is adequate and the service and staff all very friendly. We spent quiet relaxing days by the pool reading and using jet...

Warning
Date: 08 Jan 2010
I chose the hotel because of the proximity to the town -- and because it was not directly in the thick of all thinking it would be a comfortable and quiet choice. SADLY DISAPPOINTING. The rooms were...

We arrived in Phi Phi to be greeted by a guy in a uniform that says Bayview Resort on one sleeve and Arayaburi on the other. He loaded our bags into a longtail boat and took us over to the resort. We...

Beautiful island but resort not worth the money
Date: 06 Dec 2009
Phi Phi is a spectacular, beautiful island. It is definitely a place for the backpackers though as there are beach parties every night, and you can hear the music from your room. We were also...

Best view and worst Service
Date: 30 Nov 2009
Yes the room is not the best, the pool is just so so, the hill is very steep and the service is the worst you will find in Thailand. DONT go to Arayaburi if you like 5 star treatment and you need to...

Beautiful view, Average room, even more average service

We were looking forward to the stop and drop part of our trip, having just taken an overnight train from Chiang Mai, a plane then cab ride and ferry to Phi Phi we were exhausted. We walked through...

Nice

Stayed at ther Bayview Resort from the the 12 aug to the 16 aug. Had a very good time and really enjoyed our stay. If going to the bayview from Phuket wear a pair of shorts and thongs as you get off...

Bayview - best views available!!!!
Date: 06 Jul 2009
We stayed in the Bayview bit of the resort (this is the cheaper option). After reading the reviews we were a bit sceptical. When we arrived, I saw some cracks in the walls etc, but the room was huge...

Great resort on Phi Phi island
Date: 26 Apr 2009
We stayed 4/5 days in this resort and had really great time. We really appreciated its location - it is within 15 minutes walk from the village, so you can either stay in the calm or go to the...

The best of both worlds
Date: 25 Feb 2009
Service was very friendly, although on occasion I think a few things were lost in translation! The room was lovely and clean with all the amenities we needed and a spectucular view! The pool and...

Good Room & Location - but bad service

Falsely Advertised, Over-priced, Run Down Establishment!

Date: 03 May 2007
I will try to be objective about the Bay View - Arayaburi Resort on Phi Phi Island, Thailand. I know for myself I would not stay here again, but for those who are still considering it, here are my...

The worst experience I have ever had - do not stay here
Date: 19 Apr 2007
We just returned from 4 nights here. We were in room 210, a 10 min hike from the beach which is a killer in stinking hot heat. Our room had no view, the screen in the bathroom had holes in it and...
