Find hotels in Koh Sawang

We stayed 2 nights at RM150/ night. During low season - Apr to Sept i think -drop off is at sunset beach, which require to take tuktuk to go at 50baht per person. there is a short cut however (turn left and pass by wooden houses to reach the main walking street (7eleven) but there is a small slope if bring with luggage. (high season drop off at Pattaya beach which is walkable) Room - pros - good and clean hotel, free snack and yogurt (for 1st day only), free water bottle 500ml 2x daily, with window and sunlight, spacious bathroom, cold aircon, with hairdryer, receptionists are helpful to give information - cons - need to give 500 baht deposit, shoes to be at ground floor, a bit noisy at night as it is near to mali bar, Location - beside walking street (main street in koh lipe, beside hotel is mali bar, below hotel is patt mart (sell many things) and a food stall (sell somtum 40baht and rice with egg etc)) - near to everything ie massage, food, beach, travel agent shop etc.

(-) I booked Garden View room for 3 adults because the room description mentioned "2 single beds and 1 double bed", but during check in found this room had only 1 double bed, and had to pay 800 baht for an extra bed. (+) The staff was super friendly, and I really didn't mind paying the extra 800 baht, it was worth it. Room has towels despite description in agoda mentioning no towels. Room has Coffee/tea maker (jug kettle), perfect for family with children. The location is a bit off Walking Street, so, it is quiet, no noise from bars etc, we had a good night sleep there. The pool was clean, although we didn't go in (who goes to swimming pool when in Koh Lipe anyway?). Did I mention the staff were super friendly? Would definitely go there again during next visit to Koh Lipe.

I originally booked The Reef for its location and value, but the staff and atmosphere brought me back for additional stay with no hesitation. I was very keen to explore all of Koh Lipe during my time on the island so The Reef's central location was perfect. It was always a short walk to the room to drop something off or pick something up in between activities. As for the staff, Nok was an exceptional host who easily boosted our experience to 6 stars. She always greeted us with a smile, offered suggestions for activities in the area, and she kept us smiling and laughing. The rest of the staff were always very friendly and helpful as well, including the owner who took time out of his day to chat with us. The rooms were clean, with comfortable beds, nice hot showers, and sufficient AC. The reception and breakfast areas block most noise from the road so even as a very light sleeper I had no issues. Breakfast each morning was substantial and delicious. I can't recommend The Reef enough.

Great room, just off the walking street. Less than 5 min walk to sunset beach. The room was comfy and clean, and came with a pocket wifi that worked pretty well (internet in general in Koh Lipe is not good -- better 4G hotspot off your phone). Some noise at night from nearby bars til around 12:30am. Overall it was a great stay! Oh and the hotel is hidden behind the Siam medical clinic.
