Phuket is fairly quiet in May so there will be lots of places to stay in that will not cost a lot. Best thing to do I think, is have a browse round the forum for ideas as what some might consider to be good, mught not appeal to others and you haven't really given much info as to what you're looking for, apart from cheap.
I can't help on diving or Phi Phi, don't do it and not been there.
Good luck
