Great stay at Plawan”

Plawan Lipe Resort is a small resort run by a great group of individual (possibly family members!) They are very nice people, always welcoming with a smile and willing to help. The breakfast is delicious. The environment is quiet and serene. They offer free taxi service around the island which is very useful when its 30+ degrees and sunny. It is a short walk to the best part of Sunrise beach. They have a few games and snorkeling equipment at the resort. You may want to bring some ear plugs - this island has a lot of dogs and they like to sing in the night!

Home away from home - perfect stay in Koh Lipe”

We stayed there during our time in Koh Lipe, and all the time the staff have been attentive and helpful. There’s a free taxi service from/to the pier and also to the Koh Lipe walking street throughout the day. The bedroom was perfectly clean, and the beaches can be reached by a short walking distance. The business is family owned, and they make everything for you to feel at home!

Excellent experience ”

Room was very clean. Staff extremely helpful, send and fetch us from Walking Street everyday. Breakfast was well presented and delicious. Will stay at Plawan Lipe again if return to Koh Lipe. Owner, Ms Beam was friendly and went extra miles to fulfil our requests. And her little kitten Temple, is adorable.

Lovely place ”

The staff here are beyond lovely. Although you are not beachfront, they offer taxi service anywhere from 8am to 8pm... Great breakfast and lovely clean rooms. Wifi is not the best but all good. Would highly recommend.

I highly recommend”

If you don't want a beachfront resort, it's the best resort. The staff were very kind. There is a free shuttle to the working street. I felt very comfortable during my four-day stay. I highly recommend.

Highly recommend!”

Great Service, Kind and Considerate Staff, Clean and Comfortable Room”

Delicious Breakfast, Full facilities, Quiet place, 5 mins walk to both Sun Rise and Sun Set Beach, Great Service, Kind and Considerate Staff, Clean and Comfortable Room. Love and Enjoy my stay! The only con is Mosquitoes, so pls be reminded to bring mosquito repellent.

Exceptional”

Lovely small family run hotel a short walk from the beach. Breakfast is tasty and large portions to keep you going most of the day. Rooms are simple but have everything you need, strong air conditioning, a small fridge and clean bathroom. The bed is firm like most Thai hotels. The motorbike drop off service is very handy. We used it to get dropped to walking street for dinner but walked back each time. You can arrange a time to get picked up if you don’t want to walk off dinner.

Lovely place !!!”

Friendly, attentive & very responsible staff !!! Clean room and super comfortable bed. Great breakfast. Providing assistance and free transports when needed. 5 mins walk to sunrise beach & free beach mats to take to the beach. We book snorkeling trip from Resort, and they well arrange for us, send us to the pick up point and fetch us back to resort :) Mosquito are everywhere, we have to close the all doors and windows to avoid it from entering, but it will be fine if you have insect repellent spray.

good experience staying at here”

near to sunrise beach and sunset beach, acceptable walking distance to walking street.. quiet and relaxing place to stay .. very friendly staff and good breakfast . free tansport and taxi service to everywhere in koh lipe . most important is the cleanliness very clean, they will clean ur room everyday

Example of a great hotel! ”

Without doubt one of the favorite place I stayed during my time in Lipe! Upon arrival at the jetty, they picked us up & we were warmly welcomed by their 2 staff & their friendly dogs.The staff was extremely friendly & very flexible to our needs(appreciate this!). We had two great evenings here, which obviously also added up to the experience. The hotel provides free shuttle service to walking street everyday, which is a major bonus! A big thank you to Sakarin, who showed us such warm personality and would never hesitate to fetch us up & down walking street few rounds everyday (awesome staff!). I truly enjoyed the cozy stay in Palwan. The scenery was beautiful and it was a relieve to walk in such a clean; quiet and peaceful environment. Note, this is not a 4/5-star hotel or so, but the atmosphere is so special that it really felt like home to me. Special thanks to the 2 awesome staff that took good care of us through our stay in Lipe!

If we come back to Koh Lipe, definitely in Plawan. ”

An excellent place to stay, with the warmest hospitality I have experienced in Thailand during 8 years of visiting. Lovely family resort with great food (massaman made by mother) and excellent service. Very nice was the free transport service to walking street. Nice room for the price compared to other places on Koh Lipe. Also nice is the walking distance to Sunset beach as well as Sunrise beach. We can definitely recommend it to other customers.

Quiet location!”

Not very close to the walking street, but proximity to the best part of Sunrise Beach (in my opinion after walking along the whole beach one day) compensates for it. Breakfast is very nice. The family is friendly. Bring a mosquito repellent to the island!

Beautiful Clean Comfortable Bungalows”

The bungalows were impeccable with great service from this family run business. They offer free transfer into Walking Street and maintain a very clean, comfortable and great value for money place to stay. The breakfast that was included was filling and delicious. Snorkels are free to borrow as well as beach mats and towels. Overall a very underrated place to stay and would recommend this for anyone travelling to Koh Lipe. It is very quiet and an incredible place to stay. Would definitely go back next time we are on the island.

Lovely stay ”

Staff went out off there way to help. And loved. Free pick up and drop off at walking street. Stay hear....

Excelent Hosts!”

We stayed at Plawan for a week, in late April, and we recommend it to everyone. From what we've seen in the island (we visited everything), it has, by far, the best location and cost/benefit ratio. Location is great, just 500 meters from the best beach in the island; The rooms have (almost) everything you need (a water heater to make tea would be nice...); Breakfast is great!!! More than enough to get you through the morning; There is free taxi to and from "Walking Street", from 8AM till 9PM. But the best feature of Plawan is, without a doubt, the staff. They go to great lengths to help and provide you with everything you need. The day we left, we caught heavy rain. Nevertheless (and under no obligation to do so), they wrapped our bags in plastic, to keep our stuff dry, gave us a ride to the taxi boat (under heavy rain), lent us umbrellas and still carried our bags trough the rain and water puddles to get us to the check-in point, safe, dry and on time! Thank you! We loved our stay!

Wonderful time”

The 5 properties/huts that make up the Resort are detached from each other. We were in the one furthest from Reception which was nice. Each room is air conditioned and comfortable. Water on Koh Lipe has to be shipped in so there isn't a pool here which is completely understandable but it would have been perfect had there been as the huts and family are wonderful. Breakfast is huge - fried egg, toast, bacon, sausage, pineapple, watermelon etc. There is a short cut passed the huts to Sunrise Beach via the Andaman Resort...just be aware that it there is a steep hill down and therefore up on the way back but its only a 5 minute walk. Location is right next to Mountain resort and the family are available to take you to Walking Street or Pattaya Beach between 8am and 9pm and to pick you up if you want. A tuk tuk taxi is only 50 THB per person however The family who own Plawan Lipe have limited English but this doesn't prevent them doing everything you can imagine for you.

Amazing stay! ”

Loved Plawan! Friendly helpful staff, cosy family feel, great rooms, huge breakfast and lovely dogs. They also provided free taxi rides during the day and the driver was great at picking us up at the specified times. Highly recommend this place.

Very good”

We booked a double room plus a bed, for 3 adults. There's not much space left after they add the bed, which is a mattress on the floor. The breakfast was good, the free tuktuk service (until 9pm) was also very useful. It was very close to the beach (5min walk). Staff is great and friendly. It is somewhat overpriced for what you get, but still in the average price range for koh Lipe.

Just perfect - I will come back”

Stayed 8 nights and I loved it. best breakfast I ever had in Asia (spend 3 month in asia), kindest staff, nice rooms, free shuttle service, close to the most beautiful beach. Will definitly come back next time!
