Best location on Lipe”

Be prepared to walk on stairs to get to beach. Best beach location, north side. Quiet, unlike south side Pattaya and east side. Breakfast views are spectacular. Food is ok. A little pricey but worth it for the cold AC and strong water pressure in showers.

Comparable to Shangrila Boracay”

How it is located in a hill is like Shangrila Boracay in Philippines. Of course Shangrila is 5 star but it has the same vibe. The sunset beach or hotels beach front is so nice and has a private/exclusively for guest feeling. Their resto has a lot of not available on their menu but the food is affordable and same as in Walking street. They have free transfer to and from Walking Street or Thai Immigration. Will definitely go back here someday.

Best side of the island to stay on! Here you get a more peaceful, serene feeling with the most beautiful views. Other beaches are more busy and not as nice. Resort staff are all amazing, best we have had anywhere......and we are world travellers. Restaurant is good(not a huge selection though) and the morning breakfast buffet included is very very good with so many options. Never had upset tummies here from food. This place is probably one of the best places to stay in Thailand, you will definitely enjoy it here! The only cons are there are lots of stairs and it’s far from the Main Street to walk. Other things to note are that we got upgraded for our room and that was super nice!! Much bigger place for 10 days. Also, we met the owners and they bought our last nights dinner, which was very nice! You definitely get a family feeling staying here.

This might just be the nicest place to stay in Koh lipe! We arrived by ferry and was greeted by a driver that helped us through immigration and the drove us to the resort, they gave us a warm welcome. This place is VERY well kept, the grounds were flawless, our room was spacious and very clean. The food at the restaurant was probably the best we ate while in Koh Lipe, and to eat out on the deck high above the beach overlooking the water was breathtaking views. They have a private beach with shade and chairs. Not many people. You can snorkel from the beach, the water is shallow and clear. I for sure will stay here on my next visit!

It’s a really really nice location and the resort has a load of potential! It would be nice to have more sun beds at the beach and especially more toppings for them! Keep developing and you will be amazing!

Nice beach ”

To my pleasant surprise the hotel picked me up from the jetty and also send me to the next hotel free of charge. Also love the transfer to n fro walking street but beware of the bumpy ride. Beach is perfect

Great location, facilities and staff”

It is a nice resort on the top of the island with amazing view from the restauran, nuce beach with clean crystal water, food is excellent, it is a but further from walking street but hotel provides shuttle every day between 6pm and 10pm so it is easy to get there pr you can take tuk tuk! I would definetelycome back to this resort again!

Nice resort”

Excellent view, nice beach, strolling distance sunrise beach, staff was friendly and helpful. Wifi was not working in the room, need to traverse to lobby/cafeteria for wifi. Remotely distances from walking street

Barely acceptable”

The best part of the resort is it's location on the beach. The sand directly in front is a little rough and hurts the feet but if you walk just a few meters to the right it is finer and more granular, softer sand. Very nice to swim and do some snorkelling. However, the beach had some garbage (typical of Thailand) and there were not many chairs or umbrellas - and those there were tattered and need to be replaced. The resort itself is basic, including the food. Nothing special. The only truly negative thing was we arranged a two day snorkelling tour for a Monday and a Wednesday for 3,000 baht. We confirmed that the days did not have to be consecutive; then after the tour they wanted an additional 300 baht because the days weren't consecutive. Someone there saw an opportunity to extort some more money. We didn't pay it. Not very honourable of them. :-(

Amazing beach, amazing staff, room feel old”

The title says it all. With better rooms, the price would make sense. You can feel they cheap up on the room and few other items when they built the ressort. Too bad because the beach is plain amazing. Note it is not too close from the walking street but they do provide shuttle services. Overall it is a mixed feeling.

Exceptional”

We really enjoyed our stay here in Mountain Resort. Good service and they even have a shuttle service to Walking Street in the evenings. Responsible staff as well as my sis unknowingly dropped her immigration pass, they kept it till they saw us again and pass it back to us. Location is great especially to the beach. Just down a short flight of stairs and there it is. I would definitely come back to Mountain Resort and Koh Lipe. Beautiful place.

Great views! ”

The views from the restaurant are spectacular. The breakfast was good and great views while eating. The room was nice,clean and staff were very polite. The location is a little off the beaten path which makes it hard to enjoy the walking street and shops. Hotel provides a shuttle bus that is helpful but if you want to be near restaurants and activity it takes extra time to get there. Overall - very nice but might want to be closer to the activity and walking street next time.

Exceptional”

Bungalows, pool, breakfast, location were all great. There’s excellent snorkeling right from the beach. The beach in front is better than anywhere else on the island and it’s not busy. We took the free shuttle to walking street every night. It was very easy and convenient. I wouldn’t hesitate to book this resort.

Exceptional”

My Wife and I think this is probably the best resort on the island. The staff here is friendly, good buffet breakfast, and good lunch and dinner menu at reasonable prices. The view of the beach and sandbar from the dining area is amazing. “50 shades of blue.” The cabin we were in was comfortable and offered a nice view of the ocean as well. Whether you want to walk on the beach, watch the sunrise or sunset, you can do it here. We spent hours snorkeling on the reef in front of the hotel. Amazing sea life here. We will come back again.

Great Stay as always!”

My 4th time at this resort I think its the best on the island with best beach and facilities. Good breakfast, friendly efficient staff and nice room. Will stay again, well done Mountain team and thanks for a nice holiday!

Not worth the money.”

The hotel is old and tired. The restaraunt staff were unfriendly and seemed to be not used to dealing with customers. The pictures on agoda should be updated as the photos aren't accurate. The rooms are now very tired and old. Food in the restaurant was ok. Location was ok, close to a big mall luckily as no other cafes or restaurants in the area.

Spectacular beach...”

Absolutely a beautiful beach......Amazing sunsets! Hotel.......well, lacking the basics for the price they are charging. Cleanliness....in a week, we had to chase down the cleaning staff. There were days the staff were hiding and consumed with their cell phones. Bathroom wasn’t cleaned at all! If this was a cheap hotel, maybe it would be tolerable, but it’s not a low end hotel. NO wifi in the rooms, and wifi was weak in the lobby. Breakfast- only one coffee machine and it was displaying a ‘clean me’ message. It wasn’t until the machine totally shut down, during breakfast, that it was taken apart and cleaned. The hotel was extremely busy with out of control kids running around and screaming in the restaurant. Try the Wapi Resort on Sunrise Beach.

Comfortable stay”

We as three families, include an aged couple and a 6 yrs kid, spent 5 nights here. Best view best beach best snorkeling spots, not luxury decoration but very big room. it’s not at a convenient location, but considering we are here for relaxing, once a day going to the main streets are more than enough. Only two points I’d to point out here: 1) no telephone inside the room, so if you need any assistance from front desk, you have to go there by yourselves. Most time it’s not a problem, but if there is any emergency, then it’s a pain in the ass. 2) on the day we left, one wired old couple (white people) took away my brother’s myopia glasses on purpose while he was swimming. I cannot say if they are racist or some weirdo, but there was no CCTV or supervisor by the pool, so we had no way to found it even though we asked every staff and checked the pool surroundings many times, which caused great inconvenience to my brother on the trip back to China. In general, the facilities and services need to improve promptly.

Just review about the Mountain Resort”

Minuses: No wifi in the room Little deck chairs on the beach No personal on the beach Resort need reconstruction Pluses: Best beach on the island Beautiful view from resort Good breakfast Free shuttle bus to the city from 6-9pm

Extremely Disappointing”

After an amazing week at the Asara resort on sunset beach where the customer service was top notch and room was super clean, Mountain resort was a big disappointment. The view is spectacular but everything else a complete let down. Difficult to surmise but it just felt that on the whole the staff aren't interested or that engaged which is a strange experience in Thailand as customer service is usually very high. The restaurant is poor both in terms of quality of food and speed of service , the Wifi non-existent apart from the reception area and they charge for hire of kayaks and snorkels which are free in most other resorts? The final straw was the cockroaches in the room - Big and small ones etc. I've travelled in Asia extensively so happy to take the rough with the smooth with Mother Nature but you really don't expect this in a premium resort charging premium prices? Koh Lipe is a lovely Island and we will definitely return but not to the Mountain resort.
