                The forra resort is a bit remote from the buzz of the walking street (about 5 min walk), in the village very calm area with less tourists. It is just 50 meters from Sunrise beach, you can easily reach it. The resort and bamboo bungalows are very clean and looks very well maintained, the outdoor bathroom is nice. Staff is very friendly, helping and provide a lot of good advice. The little resort is very peaceful and great to let children go and play in the main area.

                We stayed there for 5 nights. Pros: located 150m away from the best beach on the island (sunrise beach), friendliest staff, bungalows are not fancy but are comfortable and there is everything you need, nice cozy area to hangout with hamacs, library,etc , their dive shop in right on the beach and you can stay there for a nap or breakfast with view on the beach. Cons: the hotel is just next to a local village where they have very loud music every day, until past midnight. Forget about a quiet late afternoon chill in your hamac and forget about sleeping before they turn off the music...the hotel staff isn’t responsible and there is nothing they can do but unfortunately it was very annoying and exhausting by the end of our stay...despite all the pros above I would not stay there again because of this... :/

                the good and the bad...”

                Overall our stay at Forra was grand- The French girls who works there is not hospitable and I imagine she only works at Forra for the diving. The French women who is married to the owner is fantastic !!! She is the soul of Forra and when she's around the place is a little brighter. Armed with a fantastic smile and her daughter she really gives the place a family friendly surrounding. The thai women who work there are also lovely but honestly the rest of the staff could benefit from saying hello or good morning. Saying that, Forra is on the best part of the beach and the location is perfect, 5 minutes from the main strip and a lovely walk through the local village. However things that could be improved....... Due to Forra not been a hostel but a resort hand-wash or a body wash could have been provided. A bigger or stronger fan would have been fantastic. You kind of have a little hairdryer blowing at you in a very hot bungalow. The mozzie nets are taped to cover the holes in  them which look ugly. Lastly, it's lovely been with nature but the bungalows themselves  could be a little more enclosed, there's openings everywhere so expect cockroaches, mosquitos, frogs, lizards and we had a rat in the bathroom.

                nice location but a bit expensive ”

                Our bungalow was nice, we stayed there for 5 nights. The first 2 night was a nightmare as it was a wedding just behind the hotel and the music was very Lound from 10am to midnight! After that, the place was more quiet only some music for a bar not far away. The mattress was a bit hard, but the bungalow was very big with very nice terrace and a nice open bathroom: you can admir the sky when you take the shower! Not fare away from the beach, just 100m from the nicest and quiet beach in koh lipe. After being in Thailand 5 times, the price of the bungalow was a bit too expensive... 1600bath when you can find half price on sunrise beach also. But all the accommodation look pretty expensive anyway on the island. The girl in reception is here all day if you need anything. Food are also good at the restaurant. Nice place and nice location.

                Really nice stay!!”

                When we were looking where to book it was so difficult. But when we came to the resort and after we walked around the island, we saw the difference in bungalow resorts. The bungalow was really nice, it was clean, the matress seemed new and was really comfortable. The bathroom was new and clean - they came every day to clean it. The whole resort is clean and really nice with all the palm trees. Only the wifi wasnt working that well, but it happens in many places. There were no strange animals, except two small frogs in the bathroom, but they went away. When you come to the island you have to walk around 1km to this resort, but after you know the island roads you see that it is not that far away. For us - the most beautyfull beach is 100m far...so 1min walking...even less. For us - worth the money we paid. Really nice stay. Hope you will enjoy the stay the same as we did.

                Location is perfect, near sunrise beach. Walking distance few minute. Suitable for diver because a lot of diving promotion stuff. No soap / drinking water. Only towel provided. Not suitable for those who afraid of insect. Saw few cockroach and a toad in toilet! Very hot because the fan is too small and the bed is cover with mosquito tent. Must bring more mosquito repellent! The water pressure is extremely low sometimes, probably other people using as well. Water heater provided. Staff is very friendly and offer to help call taxi if needed, the guy also offer to help keep your important stuff in safe for you.

                Stayed for 3 nights as a group of 6 travelling to Koh Lipe from M'sia. Forra is first and foremost a dive center so their priorities are to customers that pay them for diving trips. First day we arrived, a Thai lady staffed there brought two of us to the dive center (note that the resort and dive center are located apart but near to each other) to check in. A guy greeted us, took a look at my booking doc, and after learning that we were not there to dive repeatedly told us to deal with the Thai lady with any issues we had. We asked if they provide snorkeling packages and he told us their boat was broken and is in repair...huh.. The kind Thai lady (irritated at times from handling all resort guests by herself) was clearly pleading to her superior for assistance but he couldn't be bothered with us. Heck, even during check-out he couldn't even bother to collect the room key. The poor Thai lady was missing during half our stay anyways, there was close to no one who could help.

                The huts are cute and spacious. the resort is kept clean.

                The stay was not as expected; pictures suggest a beach resort which it is not, there is a bar at the beach but the huts are a few minutes walk (not too far but still). The place has very much laid back staff which is not necessarily a good thing, it's not a hostel. Our real issues were with the bed, noise and insects. The noise came from neighboring locals, I just can't get used to their daily schedule. The insects can be a nuisance in the form of biting flies and Musquitos. It gets worse when you have to fight cockroaches out of your cloths each morning. For us the thing that decided to leave the place was the sleeping conditions; there was no matras! Don't let them kid you with saying its a Thai matras: this means a piece of hard insulation foam with some cardboard stuck to it! We did complain about it and the matras was indeed changed, too bad it was changed for exactly the same thing. We gave up on our money (still hoping for a refund) and quickly found another place close by; right on the beach with correct conditions and basically the same price. The place reminded me in te end of the huts where you use to sleep for a dollar or two 10 years ago, now apparently they afford to ask 50-60 (cause you can book online?) To me it was crazy bad value for money. If you want to stay like this go to the locals. They are nicer and you pay a fraction, I am sure they would have addressed the sleeping mats better too

I'd like to remind that it is advised on the description that the property is not located directly on the beach but 100m walk to it and all the bungalows offer garden view only, as advertised. Then, for the story of your mattress, I remember it as if it were yesterday : You only came to speak of it on the day you decide to leave, I had your mattress change for a more comfortable but you did not take the time to try it because when you came back you came to tell me you were leaving right now and didn't ask for any refund and now I see that you are waiting for...
