The room in the villa was large, very clean, A/C in the room, plenty of storage for clothes and other stuff. We stayed over 2 weeks, it was a truly great experience. The staff is exceptionally wonderful, very kind, sincere, respectful, and responsive immediately to anything that's needed/any questions. Some of the staff we remember their name is Nui, Golf, Tik - sadly we don't remember others' names but literally, everyone was super nice. My son ordered banana smoothie every day, with each meal - they remembered it after just a few times and at the end even called him Banana Boy, lol. Right in front of the resort is a beautiful beach with the resort's beach beds, umbrellas, towels available, and drinks/food service. The swimming pool we enjoyed a lot as well - very clean, warm water, surrounded by vegetation for privacy. The entire property is maintained very well daily, swept, cleaned pathways, very clean, everyone walks barefoot, and each entrance has a bucket of clean water to rinse feet, no shoes indoors (it was perfect!). The food was very good, most importantly fresh, breakfast offered a variety from Thai curries to rice, Thai or Western style, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian, desserts, all sorts of drinks etc. buffet style, or a la carte. There is nothing that we found that we did not like (maybe only occasional mosquito bites). Boats are available as needed for a fee so it is easy to leave the side of the island to explore other areas. We absolutely loved it all.

can't think of anything.

Liked the feelings of jungle, but it went too much when a little mouse jumped from our daughter's bed. Thanks God we were leaving on that day... Loved the "good night" little notes with gifts♥️ The Chef made our stay worth...his art and creativity in food is definetly to be appreciated!

We had few incidents but they tried to cover it, however when you are going in jungle you want your little kids be next to you not 15 meters away. Therefore, if you are booking two rooms mentioned and confirm the villas to be opposite not even next to eachother. Apperently, there is only one of that option. When you book islands tour, confirm and re-confirm this is Zeavola boat not a third party company. This specially goes for private tours and families with children. The location isnt close to the main pier...so you need to spend to/from shops on main island. In Thailand, hotels does not provide pick ups/drop offs...its on client's cost which is an additional cost. Please keep this in mind.

-location -territory -like Maldives water -forest villa (hill villas) -good food -good personal -good atmosphere -pillow menu

-very hot in the room because hotel connected keychain to the key by welding. you could not leave air con switched on because you need to lock the door by this key. 5 star hotel tries to save electricity and this cause a lot of discomfort because you need to wait 20+ mins to cool the room from +32-33 every time -bad wi-fi in hill area -too soft mattress. no options to change -loud tractors delivering people on speed boats -a lot of boats at the front of the beach -evening low tides -big ship with garbage near the hotel for the first 2 days -expensive food and especially expensive transfer. 10k b for 3 people on speed boat 2 ways

Zeavola resort is located in an isolated beach , far from all the busy bars and walking street of Phi Phi, what makes is a private resort. The beach is amazingly beautiful, there are some tasty restaurants around it, 2-5 mins walking away. The pool is clean and taking good care. Breakfast is very nice. The stuff is super friendly and helpful. The chef is so nice and carful. The only thing is that hotel doesn’t supply a complimentary bout ride to this distance location and arriving to the from Ton sai pier takes around 15 mins by long tale bout and cost about 1100-1500 Bath which is extremely pricy (just to get an idea we paid 400 Bath for 1 hour drive in Phuket!). I think the the hotel can effort itself to send a bout to take his customers and not let them pay such a imaginary price that sould cost around 400 B.

One of the highlights of our stay was undoubtedly the culinary journey curated by Chef Satya. Every day, he amazed us with his incredible organic dishes, each a masterpiece of flavor and creativity. His attention to detail and willingness to explain the concepts and inspirations behind everything added a personal touch that made every meal unforgettable. The resort itself is beautifully designed, reflecting a balance of sustainability and elegance. Everything, from the eco-conscious practices to the experiences offered, shows a deep commitment to preserving the natural surroundings while offering comfort luxury. A special mention to Mr.Golf and Mr.Nico, whose smiles and care make us want to come back asap. We can’t wait to return!

you can swim here at high tide, fairly quiet beach, welcome drink and cool towels, accommodating on requests needed (we needed a new tea kettle and coffee maker in room), clean rooms (but there are bigs which one should expect), spa onsite (slightly pricey but good services), restaurant was yummy, room was spacious

we had the pool villa and the bathroom was separate room that wasn't air conditioned, there weren't any quick service food options and for coffee and tea, our private snorkel tour wasn't really private (we booked through activities center at hotel), our final transfer didn't accommodate my mothers mobility needs but I believe this was due to the hotel outsourcing the transfer (we were on the marijuanna boat)

Excellent staff and service, beautiful beach, beautiful pool, beautiful room. Little touches were great (little gifts, complimentary fruits brought on the beach and in the room). Plenty restaurants on the beach closeby.

Breakfast could be better. A drying rack was missing in the room. The resort does not have a kids club and does not organise activities for kids/parents, so when weather is bad and the sea rough there’s nothing to do. But the biggest issue… Monkeys in the resort is a beautiful thing.. BUT.. the hotel needs to raise awareness that these monkeys are aggressive and they need to perhaps feed them more so they are not aggressive. Our son got attacked but luckily we were around and nothing bad happened but this could have ended very bad.

The food was very good and breakfast various, it wasn’t just a typical accommodation, but a whole experience. That is what we wanted and they provided. The location is beautiful and you can easily take trips to see other parts of the islands, totally worth it. The trips offers from the hotel are budget friendly.

The transportation to and from the hotel is too expensive and not worth paying the extra cost, we chose another way and it was under half the price and very fast. The prices for massage are too high, definitely they can create more budget friendly options or lower prices for current packages. I understand it’s about the experience, but still. We went to another place and we had the thai experience at much lower costs. The staff is very nice and helpful, but the majority of them don’t speak English much, so it’s very difficult to make yourself understood and many times we gave up. Investing in lessons for employees of such a hotel is crucial for customer satisfaction in my opinion.

Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Both breakfast and dinner were of exceptional quality. The food options were manifold and particularly the thai food was among the best we have ever eaten. The buffet specials were also a true highlight. Zeavola is similar to living in the jungle. It is not like a standard hotel. You will see animals, particularly when living in a garden suite or in a suite with pool. We loved it! But keep in mind that this is not "Hilton-like" luxury; it is different in a positive way - it is much more familial and certainly a more special experience. There are plenty of options to do trips from the resort with private boats. We recommend to make use of these offers while being on phi phi due to the flexibility. It is much less chilled and more arduous to plan such trips starting from the mainland. We recommend to stay at least 4-5 days. We absolutely loved the experience and definitely plan to come again at some point!

The resort was simply magical. A retreat away from it all but with every need catered for as required! Completely surrounded within the beautiful and natural environment. The beach was wonderful, white soft sand and exceptionally clean. The room and public facilities were wonderfully quirky. We loved being able to choose to shower outdoors within the privacy in our room and walk barefoot within the resort - leave your designer shoes at home! Wonderful attentive and caring staff in a small intimate environment. We used the pool which was like an outdoor bath and enjoyed a hot stones and sports massage at the spa. Best intentions to trial the gym were not fulfilled but the setting is gloriously rustic, in a small but perfectly adequate size with sufficient equipment. There are some other local hotels and restaurants to try if you need a change of scenery as well as some very competitively priced trips to local islands. The ferry service and their staff was exceptional in supporting passengers with their luggage and friendliness and there is also the option of a connecting service to Krabi.

We should have booked for a longer stay and will do so next time!
