About Uphill Cottage

Uphill Cottage is a property on Ko Phi Phi in Krabi province, away from the crowded beachfronts that characterize Phi Phi's tourist hotspots. Its hillside location offers travelers a peaceful base from which to enjoy the island's famous beaches and scenery, without the hustle and bustle of the lower-lying areas.

Guests can expect simple, cottage-style accommodation, not a resort with extensive amenities. The property is suitable for travelers who value location and simplicity over luxury. The reception is open daily from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM. Guests arriving on the late ferry should take this into account when planning their trip, as check-in outside these hours may require prior arrangement with the property.

    Tips for visiting hotels and resorts

    Compare the rates of online travel agencies and direct providers.

    After finding a deal on Agoda or Booking.com, you should always check the hotel's own website as well. Many Thai hotels offer a best price guarantee or extras like free breakfast when booking directly.

    Location is more important than the stars

    A well-located 3-star hotel is often better than a remote 5-star resort. In Bangkok, proximity to a BTS or MRT station saves hours; on islands, proximity to the desired beach is crucial.
