Departing from Phuket, AW's big boat + speedboat takes nearly 3 hours, passing through several scenic spots on Phi Phi Island. If the weather is good, it is pleasant to enjoy the sea breeze along the way.
Email in advance to inform the time to go to the island, and the hotel staff will pick you up after arrival. The service is not bad. The overall environment of the hotel is pristine, and the beach 🏖️ and the sea water are very beautiful. The breakfast is also good, with few varieties but the taste is okay. I also enjoyed the beautiful sunrise 🌅 and the starry sky that cannot be seen in the city 🌃.
There is a rocky beach at the entrance of the natural resort next to it, where you can snorkel. If you swim out, you can see a large school of fish, but because there is no coral, the overall underwater scenery is not good, but it is good to walk from the hotel. It is very close and enough for children.
Go to the right along the beach after leaving the hotel. There is a food stall with delicious food. There are many boat bosses who take the business of snorkeling at sea. Generally, the long-tail boat charters 1600-1800 baht for 4 hours, which is a good price. Because it was my first time to go snorkeling, I chose the hotel's diving center for the sake of being conservative. The Italian guy who received us was very nice. The price was a bit expensive, but it was safe. The black guy who took us out to sea was also very good. He took the children to snorkel and said that they saw Nemo.
The only drawback was that there were too many mosquitoes. Each leg was bitten by at least a dozen bags, which were very itchy, and the skin stress reaction would cause big lumps. I hope the hotel can have a solution here.

Zeavola is immersive. You are right in the jungle, so be ready to see some animals on the way to your room. We didn't like our room, it had the view to bottom of a hill room, so no sun arrived there and what we could see was pipes from the other room's toilet.
Staff is overall nice, i loved the beach bar and the beach is so so beautiful. Check-in was great they welcomed us at the boat.
When i called them about how to reach the hotel they tried to sell is a boat ticket for 2500thb, thay i paid 1100thb for the same service, so don't fall in that.
About the property don't expect a luxury experience. And o am not talking about ”material luxury” as the GM likes to say. I talk about the quality of the bed linen, the ammenities in the bathroom, the turndown service, flexibility from staff, service at the pool, all of that wood need a big improvement to become a 5 star property. The good news is tha Phi Phi Islands don't have great accomodation, so this is still the best place to stay, tie with Saii Phi Phi.
