Exceptional”
Don't expect any comfort here and you will be completely satisfied. There is no chair or shelves inside, so your stuff will be in your bags. Our hut was not far from the beach so we could see the sea from the terrase! Most of all we were afraid of cocroaches, moscitos and hot in the night: -Yes, we saw cocroaches twice after we had left fruits inside. -Antimoscitos sprays work and the net around the bed works 100%. -The fan works great, very comfortable sleep. Sometimes it was windy at night and we slept without fan. We checked all the beaches on the island and Pattaya beach is the best to stay on (for swiming we went to other beaches). We also checked Forra Dive on Sunrise beach and were happy that we had chosen Pattaya beach.

Dear Anastasia, Thank you for sharing your experience at Forra Pattaya Beach Resort. Living on a tropical island in bamboo bungalows can have some disagrements and food attracts the small animals. But as you wrote, it s small inconvinience compares to stay on a beautyfull island with wonderfull beaches. We hope to see you again. Kind Regards Forra Team
Enjoyed our stay very much”
For the expensive island Koh Lipe, the bungalows and the location are perfect. The bungalows are simple but very spacious, completely made from bamboo with a big porch and a hammock. The beds are of high quality, good mosquito nets and rooms are with fan only. The bathrooms are simple but functional. The water supply on the island is not perfect, at certain times the pressure is low. Sadly the restaurant was closed after the high season, but plenty of options in walking distance. Wifi speed could be optimized but is 24h available at the front building and bar at the stunningly perfect beach. On the island are only a few ATMs from only one company available (the yellow krungsri bank) or cash advance in some exchange places. The people running Forra Pattaya are extraordinary nice, very warm and welcoming. Made new friends.

Nice location, basic bungalow, worth the money”
My boyfriend and I spent 4 nights in Forra Pattaya Beach and 2 nights in Forra Sunrise Beach. The best thing is the location. It's between two of the best resorts on Pattaya Beach - Mali and SITA. Right in front of the beach. The bungalow is basic with fan and cold shower. Doesn't bother us so much though. Staffs in both Forra are nice. I also attended one scuba diving. They transported us to sunrise beach first and it's a satisfying journey. BTW, the Forra on sunrise beach has better social vibe.

Highly recommended ”
I booked two nights but ended up staying 5 nights! I really enjoyed my stay. It felt very homelike. (loved it). The staff is so lovely and the bungalows are right at the beach. In the end I've even been diving with them. I had never done it before and was quite nervous but in the end I felt so comfortable and save in the water :) I definitely recommend staying at Forra and go DIVING!!!

Nice Experience in Bamboo House”
It's about 15 mins beach walk from the immigration but the scenary was worth it (better bring backpack instead of trolley bag). At first I was quite confuse as I couldnt see any big signboard written the resort name. But we managed to find it (checked from google map). I was happy to receive a warm welcome from the resort manager. This resort is very basic. No TV, aircond, kettle, mineral water (can fill up drinking water at the reception), water heater, nor soap or shampoo (bring your own); only fan and towels are provided. But still can charge phone. It was ok for me as I already read the review before. In fact we purposedly chosed to have an experience staying in a basic bamboo house and it happened to be awesome! (love the hammock n mosquito net). Free WiFi only available at the reception. It takes about 10 mins walk to the Walking Street with some choices of halal foods n souvenirs. We enjoyed exploring Pattaya Beach, Sanom Beach, Sunset Beach and Sunrise Beach only by foot.

Dear Mastura Thank you for sharing your experience at Forra Dive Resort. We try to have the minimal impact on the island, that's why we don't have aircon or don't give single use soap/ shampoo/ bottle. Here it's back to the basics. I'm happy you liked it. Warm regards Perrine, Forra Pattaya

Worth it! ”
Nice place right on the beach of Koh Lipe. The Bungalows are simple but they have everything you need. The shower without roof was really cool. One negative issue were the wholes in the mosquito nets which we had to fix before we went to bed. The staff is very friendly. We would stay there again!

Nice romantic hut”
Located on Pattaya Beach. Quiet position. Friendly staff. Very nice bamboo hut with nice partially open restroom. Matress could be better, it's not so comfy, what a pity! Wifi excellent. Overall, everything was ok but the bed. Maybe little bit too expensive.

Comfortable Real Village Feel”
The location is alright however I like the beach in front of the resort. The staffs are friendly and helpful and they offer also diving lesson. I especially like the room, is really special and we love it with the decoration. It feels so much and close to the nature.

Basic, fair for the money”
Basic bamboo bungalow. Koh Lipe is a very expensive island compared to other Thai Islands, there are currently no hostels and you can't find a 200-300 baht room like you can on other islands. So, 500 baht is a reasonable price (all bamboo bungalows are about this price). Right on the beach which is very pretty, walking to anywhere is a breeze on the little island. I believe all the bungalows have two queen size beds in them (one in the loft) which is an advantage over the other bungalows. You can fit a few people in there if you're traveling on a budget.

Simple bamboo bungalows at a great price”
Bungalows are fun, staff is friendly, and great location. Swimming and great snorkeling right out front. Snorkel rental was cheap. Don't hesitate to contact for help with transportation questions. Only complaint is the beds were hard and the resort next door was a little noisy at times.

Bamboo Hut Living! ”
We had fun staying here! All the rooms are bamboo huts! Which is great, back to basic rooms. The bamboo hit consists of two rooms, the bedroom with a large double bed in the middle with a mosquito net around it. Then a small step down towards the outdoor bathroom. A shower under the stars which is cool. Accompanied by a sink and toilet. The doors and windows do shut but leave gaps for mossys but there not too much of a problem. The bed squeaks a bit and but rickety. The floor has a few nails sticking up through the floor so be careful, staff are around But generally not needed. You have to ask at reception if you want new towels/sheets for the bed. Don't have food in the room though as we had midnight visitors, we believe rats but not sure. Also our soap from the bathroom was nibbled on in our first night, and then eaten completely after the second. few frogs in our room also but we found it more amusing than anything! Great stay if your fine with basic accommodation! It's lush to walk out of your hut on to beautiful pattaya beach. There is a small seating area as well with a hammock. Also the wifi doesn't work in the rooms. You can either sit in the cafe at the front and use it there or like sun attempt to use next door. Again great stay, Enjoy!

Dear Deva, thank you very much for your good review about your stay with us. We are happy to know that you found our staff great and the place peaceful. Best regards,
It was fantastic and fun..!!!!”
We stay at the hotel for 3 days 2 nights and it was a fantastic stay. We arrive early on day 1st and they let us check in early without any additional cost which was also superb...!! We stay in the family bungalow and the bungalow is made from bamboo and it was really nice and traditional. The bungalow has 2 double bed and we request for extra bed because of additional travellers and the service is very fast. The staff also assist us to find the cheaper snorkelling trip and it was very worth it. Overall the stay in this hotel is really worth it our money...!!!
