Koh Lipe Hotels with Airport pickup service

Beautiful little gem right on the mountain top of Koh Lipe. It has an amazing view from the restaurant and amazing view from room (we booked the one with sea view and did not disappoint!) Unfortunately there are some unused facilities, but I do think that this resort has huge potential could soon be a 5 star!! Staff are kind and helpful, even though sometimes they can’t understand, I guess they deal mostly with Thai tourists but you can understand them easily. Restaurant only serves breakfast (free!) and lunch which is good enough as from 6pm they have free shuttle that takes you to the walking street where you can easily find somewhere to have dinner. Will definitely come back ❤️

Looks quite new compared to other hotels, a/c works all the time even when you go out and take a card key which is very nice. And it cools down the room incredibly, a must in April and May. We liked the room but there’s an area for improvement: you can see some impurities here and there: old bedsheets with stains, the tub in the bathroom with some part falling off. They are not big, but better to fix them. The breakfast is amazing, a lot of options, even the noodles station, the roti station, ice cream and bloodie mary station hahaha A lot of good fruits such as rambutan, passion fruits, etc. not just watermelon and dragon fruits like at other hotels across Thailand. Sunrise beach itself is a bit disappointing because of the amount of boats there and almost no place to swim but this hotel has the designated beach where you can enjoy swimming and definitely some good sunsets. Overall it’s a good place to stay for more than a day if you want to stay at the sunrise Beach area, but my personal favorite is the North pole beach (20-25 min walk along the beach). Things to improve: - service staff should be careful with bags, I know they try to be helpful but one of the guys broke a handle of my carry on bag. - Starbacks cafe on the beach — this is a disaster, they advertise other as a Starbucks coffee shop, with the original drinks and recipes but for 180 thb they will give you iced milk instead of iced cappuccino. Better to buy some good medium roast beans from the Borth of Thailand and serve proper coffee. You don’t need that Starbucks brand definitely.

We found everything we had hoped for in our Christmas getaway at Castaway Resort on Koh Lipe. Beautiful garden setting only steps from the beach. Amazing snorkelling right in front of the resort (but don't miss diving with Castaway Divers too). A lovely, attentive team takes great care of the resort and guests, we loved hanging out at the restaurant overlooking Sunrise Beach for hours on end. Castaway Resort quickly turned into our tropical home away from home for our 10 day stay. Super family friendly und unhurried atmosphere, even during their Christmas peak. We hope to be back! (We booked our stay+scuba diving directly via email and their fabulous reservations team handled everything perfectly, including our minivan/boat transfers).

We are staying at the Site and we will stay for 6 days I have to say that our choice was really azaka! Big, clean and comfortable room, friendly and competent staff and ready to meet our requests from booking back to instructions on anything .The structure provides many services from tuk tuk to reach the room to They are always clean and in order . The breakfast is Asian and continental, perhaps we Italians would like some bricks but it's fine and suitable, the restaurant on the beach makes fantastic fruit drinks and the dishes are good if you don't want to go away. Point of beach among the most beautiful of the island and I feel recommend it .

Absolutely amazing location. We’ve stayed in beachfront bungalow, spacious, clean, comfortable bed, had everything in the room more than we needed. There were indoor shower and outdoor shower, separated doors to go in room, through the front door and another directly to the bathroom (in case we came in from swimming all wet and covered with sand), so we did not dirty our room. Cold towels and fresh welcome drinks when we’ve checked-in, polite and friendly front desk staffs. When we’ve entered the room, it was cool with some aroma that made us feel relax. The breakfast was great, many choices of Thai foods and changed everyday. Staffs go out of their way to make us comfortable and feel at home. Beach in front of the hotel was beautiful, quiet, we can swim and snorkelling there. Walking street was near, we’ve walked there everyday, sometimes just for have some iced tea and thai pancake (Thai Banana Roti). Take a boat trip, it’s worth doing! Definitely recommended this hotel! Staffs are the best!

Its a very very Nice hotel - rooms were comfortable, staff really really friendly, location perfect pools were okay. Unfortunately the Main pool by the Beach, werent cleaned every day:-(. I could only wish that the staff at the restaurant could speak and understand english. We liked the happy hour, the bar and the staff - Thanks to all at the Ananya Lipe - we’ll be back👍🏻👍🏻

When we arrived at the immigration office, two Ricci staff came to us, took our luggage, waited for us. They drove us back to the hotel on their motorcycles. As soon as we arrived, we had a coke and delicious pineapple juice. They helped us to get our luggage to our room. Most importantly, the beautiful lady at the counter gave us good advice to watch the sunrise/sunset and also recommended a good massage. This hotel is very close to the pedestrian street, about 15-15 minutes to Sunrise Beach, so the location is very good. There is a 7-11 next to it, so you can buy whatever you want, whenever you want.

Koh Lipe is highly dense with resort and hotels. Walking along the sunrise beach (from Serendipty to Mountain resort), I could see not even a meter of the beachfront is left vacant. Though staying in Ko Lipe is expensive than average Thailand standards, I am sure places of all sort of budgets are here for beachfront stay. However several were way above my budget, couple of these had worse reviews and most are too far from Walking Street. I tried to optimize on cost, reviews and proximity to walking street to end up booking Breeze Resort. It is not a beachfront hotel and do not have sea view. From Pattaya beach a 2 minutes walk on the paved way next to Akira Lipe resort took us to Breeze. With a lush garden and well maintained grasstop, it is a two storied property with balconies opening to the garden. We had booked ground floor garden facing rooms. The room was decently sized, bathroom was neat, linens were clean and balcony had two easy chairs. The room could be better illuminated in the evening and bathroom could be a bit more spacious. It was well functional with a small freeze, a locker, a beach towel provided and and 2 umbrellas in place. The resort has kitchen and dining area functional only during breakfast. So we could not have other meals here and for that we had no issues to walk down a few minutes to Walking Street. The breakfast (came with the booking) had 5 set menu options - 3 kinds of english breakfast and 2 kinds of oriental breakfast. I can't say that the set menu had wide choices or super tasty. However, the oriental breakfast menu with pad thai was better than english breakfast. The vegetarian set menu was rather silly. To use the locker/safe, they took 500 THB as deposit. Language was a big issue and we had to use translation apps to convey our words quite regularly. But the ever smiling faces and helping attitude was not lost on us. When we arrived they picked us up with a motorized vehicle from the drop off point at Pattaya beach. After checkout also, they saw us off with 2 motorized vehicles at Langkawi Immigration point next to Bundhaya Resort. Overall a nice 4 days with happy memories.

If we have to pick a place to name paradise on earth, surely it would be the Cliff. Rooms with spectacular view of the sea, with a lot of privacy, excellent for couples. We stayed in the room with a jacuzzi and it was incredible. It is located in a remote part of the island, but the Resort provides a transport service to downtown. Also, if you like to walk, the resort is 10 to 15 min away walk through the beach. The service provided was the best that we had in Thailand. It has its own private beach and it has free snorkeling and kayaking gear to use whenever we want. The Restaurant in the hotel serves very delicious food, the quantity and the quality of the food goes according to the price. The staff was super friendly and helpful. Both, the front desk and housekeeping team did an incredible job in order to give us the best experience. And we have to name the resort Manager, Charlie, who was always there to help us and advise us about what to do on the island.

We had the standard double room so cannot comment on the bungalows but we didn’t enjoy our stay here. The room faces a wooden wall where a stagnant pool of water sits behind and at night you are kept awake by the sound of the frogs in the water and couldn’t sit outside our room due to the mosquitos also enjoying the stagnant water. The rooms are basic and small and you can hear everything from next door! The bathroom smells disgusting and the towels and bedding smell of moth balls. The breakfast was ok but I just had meusli because it was the only thing not covered in flies. I have no idea why they put pastries and fruit out uncovered as it’s a simple thing to do. The eggs were cold and staff kept lifting the cover on the container and leaving open so this again was food for the flies. The pictures on the website are not a true reflection of this resort which I can imagine was lovely many years ago but it’s in dire need of refurbishment. There are much better similar priced hotels on sunrise beach. We underestimated how near sunrise beach was from the bars and restaurants but it’s very close and far more idyllic.
