The Property — Phi Phi Power Beach Resort
Phi Phi Power Beach Resort lands you right on Loh Dalum Bay’s soft sand, feet from the water. It’s a basic but cheerful three-star with simple bungalows and rooms, a decent pool, and a restaurant that does Thai staples. The vibe is low-key backpacker-meets-budget-couple: no frills, but the location makes up for it. Standing in the lobby, you smell salt air and hear longtail boats rattling across the bay.
Chronicles of Krabi
Krabi town started as a small fishing and trading settlement, officially established as a province in 1872. The region’s limestone karsts and mangrove forests long served as landmarks for sea traders, and the town grew slowly around the Krabi River. Today the city blends old wooden shophouses with modern guesthouses and a lively night market, while the coastline has become a launchpad for island hopping, rock climbing, and diving. Its identity remains relaxed and functional, overshadowed by the beaches but essential for transport and supplies.
Best Time to Visit
Full Krabi guide →Best months
December to February: dry, sunny, sea calm; best weather for beach days but hotel prices are at their highest. March and April also good but hotter before the monsoon breaks.
Peak / festival surge
July is in the southwest monsoon’s peak; heavy downpours and rough seas reduce ferry services. Hotel prices drop but rooms still fill with budget travellers. No major festival drives crowds—just low-season bargain hunters.
Budget shoulder season
May-June and September-October: rain is frequent but often short; hotels offer steep discounts (30-50% off peak), beaches are quiet, and you’ll have the island almost to yourself between showers.
Weather & packing
Krabi’s climate is tropical monsoon, so July brings heavy but brief afternoon downpours. Pack a light waterproof jacket, quick-dry sandals, and a dry bag for electronics.
Live City Briefing — Krabi
- Phi Phi’s main walking street has new concrete paving and improved drainage, reducing flood puddles after rain — helpful now in monsoon.
- The Koh Phi Phi view point trail remains open but entry fee increased to 40 baht; bring cash, no card accepted.
- Ferry schedules from Krabi mainland to Phi Phi are reduced in July — check Phuket or Koh Lanta routes for backup; expect occasional cancellations in rough weather.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Phi Phi Power Beach Resort, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 3 or 4 facing the pool or garden, away from the road. These offer a balance of quiet and a reasonable sea glimpse over the treeline.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms near the lobby, bar or street side. Street noise from Koh Phi Phi’s main path can be loud until late, and ground-floor rooms lack privacy.
Best views
Rooms on the upper floors facing the Andaman Sea side (west) catch sunset views over the bay. Pool-view rooms also have a pleasant, calmer outlook than the road.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 and 4 are the quietest, set back from street-level bustle and above the restaurant/bar hum.
🔊 Noise notes
Krabi’s main ferry pier and the resort’s own bar generate noise until around 23:00. Early mornings see luggage carts and breakfast prep near the lobby.
Insider tips
1. If arriving by ferry, the resort is a 5-min walk from the pier – no taxi needed. 2. Ask for a room in the building away from the pool bar when booking directly by phone; online booking systems rarely let you choose the exact wing.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
