If you book a bungalow with fun, you will have a great view to the bay but... 1) the insects can get into the room easily via the holes of the mosquito net or under the doors. 2) you can not direct the fan as you want, it is fixed to the ceiling and turning around. 3) old and used stuff in the room, no way to put or hang your things and cloth... they do not invest to renew the bungalows. 4) no way to get a smile nor from the guy at the reception, neighter from the staff of the restaurant.

Bungalow with good sea view. People are nice. Facility simple but all in order and clean. It is ok. Bad thing is bathing water is smelly.  
Very good. Highly recommended.

Dont expect great luxury.It-s clean , staff are friendly but everything is quite basic.The bungalows have a beach view but the beach is about 10 minutes away , in front of the seafront bungalows are just great stones coming out of the sea( the view is quite beatiful but don t expect to have a beach in front of your bungalow as i said ).The pool is very small and if u don t go there early there is no chance u will find a place .The bar by the side of the pool is excellent.The reception staff and the little helpers are very friendly, for a small tip they will carry your luggage to and from the pier( which is about 20 min walking away).The cleaning staff are very good and they come in every morning to change towels and sheets and clean the room.Expect very loud music until about 3 am from the 2 discos on the beach that are about 300 metres away( it-s part of the atmosphere in phiphi , nobody goes to bed until 3-4 am :-)) ).It-s not a bad place to spend a few days , i would give it a 7 out of 10. 
very fast , good , friendly and clear

Extremely disappointed with this place. It was the most expensive of 3 hotels we stayed at during our 2 weeks stay in thailand and also the worst. The rooms are very overpriced even at low season prices. They are in a very poor state. We took a so-called beachfront room but it is in no way beachfront, barely even a view of the sea and at least a 5 minute walk to actually get down to the sea itself. The nearby bars play music until 1-3am every night and make no mistake when I say you can hear the music as clearly as if you had a stereo playing in your hotel room. The water stinks every time you run a tap or use the shower, I can confirm that another hotel extremely close to the viewpoint does not have the same problem as I stayed there on my last trip. The windows leaked when it rained, there was a very poor choice of food for breakfast. The pool is so small it is almost non-existant and is also very dirty, it is use primarily for training first time divers from the onsite Blue View Divers ...and now the good points...the Mojito Cocktail Bar, this was the only thing that made the stay bareable, possibly the best cocktails i ve ever tasted, Evan & Connie are a great pair and it s a shame they are stuck here at this resort. Also the staff here for the most part are very polite and friendly, then again, that is to be expected at the prices we paid. 
Flawless...no problems, except remember once you book, that s it, no change, no refund, you re stuck with the place, we booked and then read bad comments posted afterwards about this place and had no choice but to stay here.

DO NOT STAY HERE!! Two huge problems: 1) showers use salty /smelly ground water - don t buy their excuse that every hotel on Phi Phi has the same problem. We talked to plenty of travelers that did not have this problem and paid far less than us. 2) extremely loud night club music until 2 AM kept us up Hotel is generally very basic and not particularly clean. The pool has a nice view, and that s about it. The management seems to cut corners wherever they can. For example, we found a dirty / rusty screw inside our pillow. Mgmt said they are no longer placing orders with that supplier, but offered us NOTHING in terms of refund.

Phi Phi Viewpoint is one of the nicest hotels on the island. My wife and I did a lot of research before traveling to Phi Phi, and Viewpoint offered everything we were looking for: Views, Location, and Some Exclusivity. We were able to walk to town every morning, but were far away enough that farangs did not wake us up in the middle of the night. Rooms are very clean, service is great, we will be back to this hotel!!! 
Booking service did its job - booked the hotel.

finds that they have pretty good service as the hotel staff was waiting at the pier and help us with our luggage and direction to the hotel for check-in. was quite a distance walk but its worth it given the lovely view compensating the fact that there s no beach at your doorstep. open-air shower was good but only downside is sea-salt water but guess its the same in any hotel at phi phi island. definately value for money =D would recommend for those whom want a quiter rest-in after the a whole activity filled-day. 
easy and reliable

The choice of VPR could have been a very good one for many reasons : good location , at the end of Lo Dalam Bay where it could be very quiet although situated only 10 minutes’ walk from the Ibiza-like Tonsai village center , pleasant and efficient staff ( not to say friendly : the lady by the reception desk in charge of booking tours) . Our Deluxe 2nd row a/c bungalow was sufficiently equipped – 2 showers (the open air one is to be used preferably in order to avoid water smells in the room). Breakfast(menu) was OK although rather plain. You can order take-away. Very nice to relax in the small swimming pool in the evening, enjoying bay view. A big problem, though : a beach bar ( the Sunset bar) situated about 300 meters from the resort overwhelms the whole area with music turning to techno bass blitzkrieg till 2 a.m ( excellent when you have to get up at 7 for some excursion tour!) . Apparently everybody knows but nothing can be done to, at least, have them turn down the volume. In conclusion : good value , partly ruined by external disturbances . 
Excellent. Helpful and efficient.I always recommend that website to my colleagues preparing holidays to Thailand
