Find Resorts in Koh Lipe, Thailand

Never been to Koh Lipe before and the trip last weekend was my first. I'm so glad I picked the Idyllic Concept Resort. The beach was very nice and quiet, which is what I wanted. The resort was beautiful and maintained very well, except for the swimming pool that had some missing towels. We stayed in the I-Pano room, which is massive. Only negative was that part of the room was dusty and one of the big pillows on the bed had a sour-moldy smell. The bed was comfortable, and we loved that the room offered a big spacious balcony. The food at the restaurant was amazing as well. We had lunch there both days, and ordered the fried fish with fish sauce, fried fish with garlic and pepper, green curry with fish, pad thai, fried shrimp cake, and broccoli and shrimp stir fry. The food was delicious and of very high quality. The prices are very reasonable for a resort this nice as well. However the best part of this hotel for me was the staff. The staff were very efficient, and super friendly and warm. While hanging out at the pool bar we talked to one of the staff, I forgot his name but he was very funny and had some very funny stories to tell. Another was one of the girls that served us drinks, quite young with a pony tail, had a super warm smile and personality. While we were leaving the staff stood out in front and waved goodbye. What a great resort, if I ever come back to Koh Lipe I will definitely stay here again.

I had booked another hotel which proved unsatisfactory so moved to the Akira for the remainder of my stay on Koh Lipe. It is a new place and has a few small teething problems to be resolved but has all the potential to be perhaps the best place on Lipe Staff were warm and friendly and helpful, rooms (mine was a Silver Suite on second floor overlooking a huge 60 metre swimming pool) were spacious and well furnished - although the addition of a Desk light (I bought one) would make the room so much better for when guests need to sit at the desk for work or emails etc. There are pretty pathways leading guests from the spacious Reception / Dining area to cabins and the two two-storey guest room wings. However in wet weather the polished concrete becomes dangerously slippery. The swimming pools are amazing, and having a deck chair right on the beach was also excellent. I would certainly return to the Akira Lipe Resort

It was last minute trip to Koh Lipe from Hatyai. I booked Sweet Deluxe Room for 2 nights.Staff pick up from pier,so you dont have to worry about shuttle at all. Requested for a room with partially sea view and they did arrange me for that. Room was spacious and comfortable,although it quite old,but i guess it was the best room in koh lipe. One matter cant be solve,it was too much mosquitoes at night ! Maybe because the room i stay is near to the mountain side.Hotel prepared anti mosquito spray for it. Walking Street is just nearby by walking pass thru the beach. Strategic location for US that hunting for foods and convenient stores nearby. Just inform the receiption what time is your boat off and they will arrange free shuttle to you to the boat stop.Overall,Bundhaya is worth for everything. We had a very pleasant stay here. If there's a chance we back to Koh Lipe,will de definitely back here again. Thank you so much for the arrangement ~

Having stayed on Koh Lipe in 2008, we were a little unsure of what to expect as the island itself has had very mixed reviews over the past few years. It has definitely been developed a lot since we were last there but only as you would expect from a Thai island catering for the increasing volume of visitors wishing to find that island paradise, and paradise it still is. Serendipity resort is an absolute gem on the island. It has so much charm and is tucked away with its own little beach that only guests really use. Each room is essentially a beautiful wooden treehouse, staggered at varying levels on the side of a hill. The hilltop rooms are a fair few steps (approx 140) with the sea view rooms around 90 to 100 steps up. This definitely kept us fit! Breakfast is served on your balcony each morning which is a real treat! All the staff were extremely helpful and couldn't do enough for us during our stay. We were moved to another room for 2 nights as the AC broke down, but a new part was ordered and promptly fitted within 48 hours, bearing in mind the electrician and parts have to come from the mainland. Another nice touch to Serendipity is that all the extras I'm sure many resorts charge for (Snorkel gear, kayaks, beach mats, games) are all included. Overall we had an amazing time staying here, and cannot wait to return when we can next afford it! Thank you to all the staff for a wonderful holiday. If anyone would like further information regarding Koh Lipe or Serendipity, please feel free to ask.

i stayed for 2 night at the bungalow deluxe and evrything was fine and nice. nice bed, clean toilet. it is quite near to the koh lipe walking street, the only place u can find cafe, bar and shops... just few minute walk from resort to the walking street and the resort is just beside the immigration office. by the way the staff name Bella was so friendly any problem can go for her. there is a cafe name Bloom cafe must try!! their coffee was very nice, owned by two young lady, one speak chinese very well another speaks english very well. thai pancake was another must try food in koh lipe. yummy snack, try on with cinnamon sugar~ delicious...

I had been in Koh Lipe twice, both of two journey, I chose Sita. first trip, last March, it was my honeymoon, i was so impressed the nature of Koh Lip and also Sita. Though the receptionist could't speak English well enough, I felt so comfortable to ask when I needed something like service or meals. The buildings were made in traditional way and suit the nature. so I went Sita again, and I was back to Korea just yesterday. This time, I bring 6 of my family, from teenager to senior. Now, All of them, are fall in love with Sita just like me! the rooms, were not recently made, but clean ans well managed. the meals, were not various, but simply good enough and suitable for from child to senior. the pools, were not big, but well managed, from 1.5m to 1.7m and also have a small place for children. the beach, beyond words. the best of all is the smile of Sita. Everyone in Sita gave me a shy and warm smile while i had stayed.

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!

We were a couple from Malaysia who booked Castaway at the beginning. However, due to the unpleasant stay which had a lot of mosquito for the first night, we planned to move out for Cabana for the second night stay. Rooms are clean but don't expect like those international 5 stars hotel. Staff was helpful to help us to move in from Castaway. Cons: The hotel is not huge as Castaway Resort. So it does not have Restaurant or Cafe for us to sit down to enjoy the view from the Koh Lipe Sunrise Sea. Therefore, we order our breakfast through a set of menu given by Cabana and staff will send over to our room. On top of that, we have our lunch at Castaway as the food is SUPERB! Would recommend Cabana if you just want to have a simple, nice and comfortable resort for your stay in Koh Lipe. :)

Why you shouldn’t choose Asara as a hotel ! Firstly, the staffs are sooooooooo friendly and attentive to your request. They literally replied my Whatsapp msg in 10 secs ! Secondly, the resort is so clean, big and comfortable until we almost missed our boat to snorkeling. Luckily the staff arranged the pick up at our resort’s private beach, so we made it Thirdly, free shuttle service to wherever you want to go, we saved a lot from there. And guess what? Waiting time for each pick up was about 5 mins. Last but not least, Asara has a clean and quiet beach for you to snorkel. So these are the reason why you shouldn’t choose Asara for your holiday in Koh lipe, so when revisit to Koh Lipe, I still can stay there (at least it’s not fully booked) 🙆🏻 Thanks Asara for giving 10 star hospitality ! Will definitely stay there again !!!

Every place in Koh Lipe is "overpriced", so when reading Lipe hotel reviews I suggest ignoring this frequent comment and just understand that prices are high here due to supply and demand. We've been to Lipe twice and stayed at 3 resorts, this one is our favourite. It has a pleasant layout, nice clean wooden rooms with A/C and a friendly and helpful staff. The breakfast is not bad (not great, but better than other places we stayed, fresh eggs, some bacon, toast, fruit etc), and the food overall is pretty good and not too expensive. Some things to be aware of, the bathrooms on each room are not fully enclosed, private but open air, so some mosquito coils come in handy. There is a 350m walk to the walking street, and at night a flashlight is a must. When the tide switches there is a current running parallel to the beach. This is not a big problem at all, but if you've gone out for snorkel and are trying to swim back, you might need to come ashore a little further down the beach than you entered rather than fight against the current. Fins are helpful. This hotel is on Sunrise beach, it's quieter than Pattaya beach, and we preferred it.

I found some crazy reviews before this booking. Please read my review if you have some concerns about the resort and island. Those negative reviews are unacceptable from my perspective. I feel very sorry who had hard times in this place and resort. Do not go to Koh Lipe Island if you have problems with nature. Mosquitos, flyers everywhere on the island. Island is very tiny so resorts have not big spaces and lands. You will also live in bungalow on tiny island so please stop complain about roster crowing, sea waves and other peoples walking or their talking. I am also very sorry and disappointed whoever brings trolley luggages. I saw 70 kgs trolley luggages who are trying to drag it on the beach. Dear traveller friends. You will have minimum 2 boat trips and minimum 2 car transfers until the island. Please show your mercy to your self and do not bring those luggages to the islands. Save and take care your back, thai speed ferry staff, hotel staff, Car and bus drivers. The hotel staff and island locals are amazing. They are all smiling and we found them very friendly. I also founded coldest beer in the town just right next to hotel on the beach. Vibe bar is coolest beach bar i've ever seen with dream catchers, lights and music. Magical atmosphere and stuff. Satun Dive Resort, located right on the beach with amazing location. Close everywhere. Yo do not need to wash your face. Just get out from resort and dive in. Get some cocktails on your back to your room. Best holiday ever. Simple, cozy and positive. Thank you Satun, Vibe and Koh Lipe.

Me and my bf we were just overly satisfied about everything the resort staff have ever done for us. The service is undoubtedly the best thing we have to mention. We had troubles to buy tickets from Lipe to Krabi due to a off-season situation but soon we found problems solved by thoughtful staff and the lovely girl from the reception. Everything was perfectly settled. Besides, things I love most about the resort would be its location and food. The sunset beach is rated as the worst beach on the island when compared with pattaya and sunrise beach but we just hold the opposite opinions. This beach is way quieter and more private to have an intimate stay with your partner and the sunset there you can see is just killing it. Having meals on the cliff and enjoying a massage at their massage centre are highly recommended. During our stay, Natalia, the cute dog adopted by the resort staff came over for several times which brought us lots of fun. I guess Sawan is just the best you can have in Koh Lipe.

After reading the reviews for Zanom, I really expected various things to go wrong, but we ended up having a wonderful time. The resort, as said by others is rustic and people who are after a sterile environment should not stay there. Beach bungalows are lined up so that only the first one in the row overlooks the sea and the rest of beach bungalows are behind, so they only have a view of sandy front yard. There are also garden view bungalows in the next line. We booked a beach view bungalow via Agoda and given the resort had vacancies when we arrived, we got upgraded to the only sea view bungalow the resort holds and the resorts holds exclusive right of selling that one via their website only. The bungalow was just as it appeared in the photos I've seen on Agoda, for the beach bungalow. I read some people were saying there was no hot water in the shower. We had no problem, there was as much hot water as desired. The bathroom has a small unit on the wall, next to the shower, with a button, where people can adjust how hot they like their shower water to be and use it straight away. The problem might have arisen sometime in the past, or during dry season when the resort operates in the full capacity. My impression and recommendation is to visit this island during the wet season as we did, because there will much fewer visitors at the island (and still there are more visitors than, in for exaple Koh Samui or Koh Phi Phi in wet season) and everything would be available just like during dry season (although I also read that we would find a few restaurants only open during wet season, which is totally incorrect, everyone is working in the wet season as well). The main problem is that online weather forecasts for any island in Thailand, if looked at during wet season will show rain all the time, once you arrive to the destination, there is no rain, this was the case with us at Koh Lipe as well as last year in October with Koh Samui. I read that a few people had to wait f

It was an excellent stay! Booked a standard room for a night but we were instead upgraded to a bungalow. Located right in front of the pattaya beach, takes a walking distance of approximately 40 seconds walk to the beach although our room was located at the end. The staffs on the other hand especially the luggage boys (?) were really friendly, they would greet us and wave a hi whenever we were in their sights. Not to mention, the hotel provided us sincere and friendly taxi drivers too, as compared to the ones on the street which were all very money-minded. The taxi drivers brought us to a beautiful stop at the sunrise beach, no short-cuts or laziness but just plain sincerity. The hotel is also located 3-4 minutes walking distance away from the Walking Street. The only downside of this hotel is perhaps the inconsistent water heater. Other than that, everything is perfectly great! Definitely value for money. Would love to stay at BV in the future if I ever visit Koh Lipe again :)

I booked at kathalee initially for 4 night but ended adding a 5th one . This small resort is located at the very end of sunrise beach, and enjoys a beautiful quiet little creek. Most of koh lipe beaches are full of longtails boats so it’s really appreciated . Perfect place for snorkeling and kayaking or just laying on one of their sun beds . This hotel is run by a very nice thai woman , always friendly and helpful . I read here and there some bad comments about a German guy being in this place ,rude sometime and unfriendly . As for myself I met a very nice guy, from Germany also , very concerned about the coral reef and the damages that can be done by some tourist and even customers . Can’t believe it was the same person :)

I was very impressed by the staff, as they took really good care of us. starting with picking us up from the pier to dropping us back there. Tour was quickly booked and we received all answers that needed. It was clean and close to the sunrise beach, which is all we wanted. Don't expect too much as hotels in koh lipe in this price range are not as outstanding as you might know from other places. I gave value for money and facilities 4 stars even though I thought the price for a 3 star hotel was too high. However, in general accommodation in Koh Lipe are more expensive than other islands in Thailand. There were no facilities similar to many other hotels in this class in koh lipe. therefore, the rating is relative to other accommodation options in koh lipe. But overall, I can definitely recommend the hotel mainly because of the very friendly staff.

My stay of 3 nights in Sea View Bungalow was fastastic! Firstly there is no tv, no hot water and no aircon but who needs all that when u choose to be Castaway! The view of the beach is enough to make u occupied, and theres a big fan on top of ur bed to keep u cool all night. The room is very clean and cozy. Not to mention theres 2 hammock hanging outside for u to laze around all day. I was also vey pleased with the staff. They were all very helpful, during my check in they even checked to see whether i have already arranged for a ferry back to Pak Bara. I paid sgd 200 for 3 nights with breakfast. Breakfast was just awesome, u have the option to choose up to 4 different course meal. I was there in sept 2015 so it was the low season hence Sunrise Beach is the cleanest. However if anyone plan to go during the peak period, Pattaya Beach is the cleanest(Castaway Resort is in Sunrise Beach). Oh not forgetting 3 key points! 1. They will cater free Long Tail boat to pontoon where u will take ur ferry to Pak Bara (this is just for ur check out day so if u r coming to Koh Lipe u still need to pay 50 baht to board the longtail, its not an option. Thats the only way to take u to your resort) 2. There is no wifi in your room. However there is wifi in the reception area. I was lucky to hav my room located near the reception area so i still get my wifi connection. 3. The resort is in Sunrise Beach. Be sure to wake up early and sit at the comfort of ur bed to catch the sunrise. Yes u dont have to leave ur bed to witness it. I promise it was breathtaking. **Many also was not informed that there is an additional charge of 20baht/person to enter Pak Bara jetty and another 50baht/person to board the longtail boat frm the pontoon to your resort. The ferry u board from Pak Bara will not take u direct to Koh Lipe, it will stop at a pontoon thats where u have to take the longtail boat.

We stayed in one of the 4 stars well known resort in Koh Lipe. Genuinely speaking, I think Adangresort is 10 times better than that resort that we booked for many reason. Firstly, the resort has got its own private beach, which is really good for our kids since they are really young. We dont need to worry about our kids as the people who spend their time at the beach are the resort customers. No other people from other resorts. The support from the resort is also excellent. The manager, Clark, is the guy you have to meet up with. From the moment you book the room until you leave the resort. He makes sure everything run properly. I really appreciate what he did for our family. I will definitely come back to this place for sure, it is become our second home for the summer period !

Unfortunately we did only stay for four days over here, but it was a very pleasant and enjoyable hotel. The small bungalow huts were excellent and chilling. Comfy beds and WiFi was quite strong too for an island. Breakfast was included in rate and was cooked quite good (Had only Thai breakfast though, so not sure about their European breakfast). The beach it is located on is very nice too and quite quiet. Distance to the main street is quite a walk, but not necessary to take a taxi. Definitely would return here if I decide to return to Koh Lipe. Staff was very very friendly too.

Green View Beach Resort is my favourite accommodation on Koh Lipe. It is reasonably priced and maintains the local tradition of a bungalow however far more comfortable than many of the others. The bungalows are surrounded by a beautifully kept lush garden and winding paths. the owner, is committed to being environmentally aware and you can clearly see this by the way the resort is kept and maintained. The bungalows are on the seafront and there are enough sunbeds for all. The sights from the bungalows are glorious and the view of the sunset, spectacular. Definitely my first choice of resort but you do need to book before arrival as everyone loves Green View.

We stayed 4 nights at Salisa from Jan 16th, 2018 to Jan 20th. The resort is just what we were looking for, something quaint, quiet, and not commercialized. Our 3 person bungalow was clean and had an ocean view from our front porch. We ate several meals at the resort restaurant and the food was good. The Walking Street was very close. In my opinion, Sunrise Beach, where Salisa is located, is the best beach on Koh Lipe. Great views of the sunrise, several islands off shore (a couple you can swim or kayak to), and the white sand beach was never crowded. The water in front of the resort is mesmerizing shades of emerald and full of coral reefs full of corful fish. You can walk in between the reefs for several hundred yards out and still be in only waist/chest high water. Great snorkeling right from the Salisa beach front. We took an all day snorkeling trip in a longtail boat right from the beach. The snorkeling trip was awesome with seven different stops among the islands around Koh Lipe.

If we go back to Koh Lipe we will stay only at Andaman resort. (and Koh Adang isand) We travelled all 3 beaches and Sunrise beach is the best. Pattaya beach was terrible crowded and music all night and long tail boas all over hardly swim. Sunrise beach had same regarding long tail boats, but much quiter. BUT Andaman has prive beach no long tail boats, also close to the nice corals. Close to the walking street so yo can walk to eat there. We ere one of the garden bungallow , there was no hot water, but you can choose to upgrade other garden with hot water. If I return to Koh Lipe, I will stay only here.

Kaixolipe is in my opinion one of a kind on Koh Lipe. Located right on the beautiful Sunrise Beach, the resort maintains a local and cozy character. Staff is super friendly, helpful and attentive. There are only four characteristic bungalows. My favorite: There is a lounge area with hammocks and long chairs - and sea view. Kaixolipe is not a mass tourism resort but a feel-good laid-back place where you will definitely feel very welcome. The 2 floor bungalows are comfortable with a terrace, a balcony and a large bed. The bedroom is upstairs and the stairs are quite steep, but it wasn't a problem for us. Definitely a recommendation!
