Where to stay in Maya Bay

We stayed in a hotel named Maney Resort in Koh Phi Phi. You will not find any accommodation  in Maya Bay, since nobody can stay there. The Hotel Maney resort is close to the viewpoint on Koh Phi Phi. This was a great place to stay since there was quiet. There is a lot of noise during the night on Koh Phi Phi but we did not hear the music, so this hotel was perfect for us.

How much time do you need there:

Koh phi phi is perfect for 2 days since this is a really small island.




Maya Bay Tip:

The taxi boat opens at 6:30 am. This is the best time to do the boat trip to Maya Bay. This way you will beat most of the tourist, and you will also see the wonderful dusk.

Bring mosquito repellent (they attack at 5pm to 7pm)
