Great Place”
They place was really great. We enjoyed our time here very much. The staff was really amazing. They had welcome drinks and also had someone send and pick us up from walking street. Its up on sunset beach, so its a good place to have a little privacy and beach views.

Lovely little villa with breathtaking view! ”
It's definitely a more rustic beach villa. The view from the villa is mindblowing. We honetsly felt that we got the best view on the island. We could snorkel in the beach just below the resort. Its more quiet compared to the other two beaches. But more beautiful. Rooms are clean, towels and ammenities are good. Staff service is excellent, we can't thank them enough! We travelled during off season so the bar and restaurant was closed, but they still made us a drink on the house! I injured myself several times thru out the trip and Nun was always ready with a first aid kid to sort it out. Lovely service, we'd go again just for it. It's a wee bit away from the walking street, but the resort provides free taxi service to wherever and we made our own way home. Would definitely come back! Cons (which we could ignore because we loved it) : -The rain shower doesn't quite rain -The bathtub is small and the shower heater is a little tricky to manage for use -can't leave food stuff outside or rats will sneak in to steal it (we learnt on the first night and kept all food in the fridge from then on). -same breakfast everyday.

Stay here and then go to the beach later”
Great place with the benefit of being up top of a hill so you get to see the sea from up above. You can always go to the beach to see it at eye level but not many places you can see from above, which makes this place special.

Private and Peaceful”
the place is located on a quite private part of Lipe but the view is breath taking in morning and evening. The room is quite clean and facilities are quite good. Since it is located on a mountain so expect some surprises too :) The facilities in room are good if not best. Friendly and helpful staff.

Home away from home”
The beach is in front of the bungalows that are located among the trees,with the stuning view at the sea and the beach. Very clean rooms, breakfast good,very friendly staff, free taxi service from 8 am to 10 pm. You feel like at home.

Exceptional”
Pictures are accurate, loved our stay for the weekend! Comfy bed, great AC, clean, friendly staff who went above and beyond. Kind of steep stairs to the beach/restaurant but its so beautiful we didn't even notice. The restaurant is pretty expensive for what it is, but there's one right down the beach that's better priced. Free kayaks/snorkeling gear/beach towels. Only bummer is the location, you need to call a Tuk Tuk to come pick you up and take you where you want to go on the island, other than Sunset Beach, and the road is a bit rough.

Excellent”
Amazing views! It’s a bit secluded, which is amazing if you want a quiet getaway. But they have a free shuttle service to anywhere on the island, which is very helpful. Beach is easy access. The beachfront rooms are definitely the best views. Don’t settle for less. Restaurant wasn’t open because of post-covid low occupancy. So didn’t try the f&b. Overall, great place to have a quiet getaway. But not if you want to be in the centre of the action or on the beach three steps from your room

Best staff and nice views”
First remark, the staff does not speak english, however they do whatever they can to maje your stay pleasant and fix any small issue. Great and friendly guys! During these days the hotel is under construction. It is not a resort and to get to the beach you need to go down several steps, for us it was really nice due to it is a quiet beach. As vegetarians the hotel changed the breakfast according to our taste. Nice gesture! Air conditioner and refrigerator work great. Consider that The location is at some distance from the the walking street, quiet place and clean... and beautiful view.

Sawan Resort”
Spent 3 nights at this place. I wouldn’t call this place a resort as it doesn’t have much of anything, just 5 villas and a small restaurant with a limited menu. On the first day we turned up we were given a villa, which was not the one we booked. We were told the one we booked would be available the next day but the next day came and was told they were overbooked and the villa was now no longer available. No refund on the price difference, just a free dinner for that night. The Villa is very old, the tv would not work on the first night and during the second and last night the electricity kept cutting out, which made things inconvenient. The “resort” does have an excellent view of sunset beach and good staff who are very friendly and would try to help as much as they can but due to poor management, overbookings, lack of facilities we will not be staying at this place again when we go back to Lipe. For the price paid there are better choices on the island.

Good”
Hole on timber flooring @ shower, rat visited the room 3 nights in a row stealing our snacks, mosquitoes every day when cleaners do not close the door while cleaning. No body wash provided, only a bar of soap which wasn't replaced when they cleaned the room the first night and washed the soap down the same hole. Only emailed to ask our arrival on the very same day I arrive whilst I was on ferry without mobile data. Ended paying my own fare to the resort. Having said that, location was great with lovely view of clear sea, with sunset to boot. Staff were friendly enough, though not in par with some of my experiences within Thailand.

Rustic getaway ”
The best thing about here is the views from the bedrooms, just stunning. There are a lot of mosquitos and the ‘sunset’ beach close by is the worst of the 3 on the island, but the staff are always available to take you anywhere else on the island. Overall a good stay.

Great quiet location, but a bit tired”
We booked a beach bangalo for late May. The staff is very friendly and helpful, but we were a bit disappointed with the age of the bangalo. For USD100 per night we were expecting a newer and better maintained bangalo.

Above average”
Beautiful sea view & friendly staff. Rooms are too basic for my comfort. No telephone, no chair in entire room except for sun chair & stool at balcony. Too many steps up & down, those with weak knees definetly should avoid.

Missed opportunities but huge potentials”
Stunning view from the deck/ room. We have been to Lipe 3 times and stayed in 3 different beaches and resorts. This was the best view without boats blocking your view. The saff were wonderful, highly service minded especially a manager, friendly and smiley. Food tasted great. However there were many cons. 1) we had a problem to sleep due to air cons not working properly. 2) A shower room had no warm water with broken and a leaking shower head. If you want warm shower, you need to shower in a bath tub. 3) A safe was ridiculously small so you could only put wallets. 4) You could spot digusting stains everywhere from curtains, a sofa bench and duvet. 5) Breakfast was tiny (2 pieces of bread , 2 small sausauges ,1 small egg and Padthai or fried noodle without fruit juice, proper coffee, fruits nor dessert. 6) Expensive prices of food. It was such a shame since it had so much potentials. It seemed like the owner giving up. With regular maintenance, this resort could go long way.
