Find Resorts in Sunrise Beach, Koh Lipe

We stayed 5 nights and the service was amazing from beginning to end. Idyllic resort is located on the beautiful Sunrise Beach and it is easy accessible on arrival and departure with long tail boat. Without luggage it easy to walk along the beach and you can after the next small hotel take a small trail to reach "Walking Street" within 10 minutes.

Idyllic resort is located on the beautiful Sunrise Beach and it is easy accessible on arrival and departure with long tail boat. Without luggage it easy to walk along the beach and you can after the next small hotel take a small trail to reach "Walking Street" within 10 minutes. However, don't forget a to bring a flashlight when walking home. You can rent snorkeling gear cheap and you can borrow a canoe for free. From next door to the resort, we rented a long tail boat for 1500 bath and we got great snorkeling and nice beached during a whole day. I understand from others that it is rare with swimming pools at Koh Lipe. Idyllic have two nice ones. The breakfast was ok and the dinner options was pretty pricey. However, there are many other options nearby. This was our first visit at Lipe. We love the island and will for sure come back. And we will for sure pick a resort on the Sunrise beach and most likely Idyllic Resort. I There are some good restaurants in the area and you can within so if you want to reach walking street. minuted to get to It is one of the more expensive resorts on the island but the rooms are very nice and the staff was always friendly. We had On arrival and departure, you need to take a long tail boat since all big boats arrive at on the island but with thhad 2 rooms and they are very You get to the hotel by taking a longtail boat. It is rare to see swimming pools at Lipe. However, Idyllic resort

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.

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.

The only downside of this resort is that it's located a little far away from walking street, but they provided free shuttle 6pm - 9pm, and if you want to go earlier, they can help you call a taxi. Absolutely in love with this resort. There's this nice sunrise beach, cleaner than pattaya beach and less crowded, and more beautiful too I think. The restaurant's breakfast ...The only downside of this resort is that it's located a little far away from walking street, but they provided free shuttle 6pm - 9pm, and if you want to go earlier, they can help you call a taxi.

The restaurant's breakfast was a little below average, but the ala carte menu was pretty decent. Would def recommend it to other travelers.

the lipe power beach resort is not a 5* resort but for the price they ask you get a very good value. hotel location is one of the best on the island. sunrise beach is quieter than pattaya beach. lipe walking street is only few steps away. pattaya beach is not to far as well. main nightlife and restaurants/bars are located on the lipe walking street and pattaya beach. ...the lipe power beach resort is not a 5* resort but for the price they ask you get a very good value. hotel location is one of the best on the island. sunrise beach is quieter than pattaya beach. lipe walking street is only few steps away. pattaya beach is not to far as well. main nightlife and restaurants/bars are located on the lipe walking street and pattaya beach. don’t expect to have sea view because sea view is only from sea front bungalows. other bungalows don’t have sea view. bungalows are pretty close to each other but i don’t think that it should be a concern because you can have your privacy at least a little privacy. bungalows have air conditioner and also hot water shower. there is a swimming pool but the water was so hazy that you could not see the first step of the pool ladder. don’t worry because the hotel is located in front of the sea so you can take a swim at the sea. staff is friendly and helpful but they may not understand english very well. buffet breakfast was ok, nothing superb but ok. i highly recommend this hotel to everybody who is looking for the accommodation with reasonable price and is not looking for a 5* resort. if you are looking for luxury then i would recommend you to stay @ idyllic concept resort because idyllic concept resort is also located on the sunrise beach and can offer more luxurious stay.

We stayed in the premium suite above the check-in counter. Absolutely worth the extra money since we had a nice ocean view from a private deck where we watched the sunrise and were served a good breakfast.

Absolutely worth the extra money since we had a nice ocean view from a private deck where we watched the sunrise and were served a good breakfast. The room itself has a unique decorum and the shower and toilet are outside, which was a new experience for me. The lady at the counter was exceedingly friendly and helpful. She took care of all our needs. The man didn't really do much, but he seemed nice enough. The hotel is a little hard to find as it is small and squeezed between two other resorts. If you have a map of Sunrise Beach, the hotel should be on there (toward the south end) but marked as a restaurant. The beach is directly in front of the hotel; unfortunately, this part of Sunrise is not the best. The water is littered with long-tail boats. Walk a few minutes north to enjoy the nicer areas. Also, as some mentioned before, the bar next door plays music until 1 or 2 am. It wasn't too bad for us since the wind was very high that night, but for light sleepers it could bother you. Lastly, the hotel is overpriced but not too ridiculous. The other resorts probably offer more for a little more. I couldn't tell you. I would, however, stay in the premium room again and recommend it to my friends. If you're on the cheap and don't mind a little inconvenience (and discomfort), Adang is just across the sea - a 100-baht/8-minute boat ride. Rent a tent and save heaps staying on the other island. The only problem with this plan is a boat back to Lipe can be unpredictable and you might end up waiting for an hour or more. We were lucky and got a boat within minutes. I also wanted to address some of the comments about Lipe's cleanliness. From what I read I'd been expecting a floating garbage heap. Turns out these were total exaggerations. Yeah, Lipe isn't the cleanest island you'll come across in Thailand, but it was quite lovely and fun. Don't let those negative reviews stop you from going.

Advantage: - The most privacy resort, as it’s located at the end of sunrise beach (south), perfect for honeymooners like us - The view from the resort is magnificent! - Breakfast in room is a big highlight here, they will send it to your room every morning at your own preferred time. For Muslim, You can request for Halal food. - snorkelling equipment & kayak is free fo...Advantage: - The most privacy resort, as it’s located at the end of sunrise beach (south), perfect for honeymooners like us - The view from the resort is magnificent! - Breakfast in room is a big highlight here, they will send it to your room every morning at your own preferred time. For Muslim, You can request for Halal food. - snorkelling equipment & kayak is free for the Serendipity’s guests - Free transfer from Ko Lipe’s immigration to the resort - They provide beach mat, dry bag, torchlight, umbrella in each villa for the guests use - Nearby walking street, around 10 minutes walking time - They clean your room everyday Disadvantage: - Wifi coverage is very bad, not to mention, you have to share the wifi with other villa - Need to climb up the stairs everytime you want to go to your own villa. We stayed at the Deluxe Seaview villa, closer to beach, thus, less stairs for us :) - The resort’s staffs are not fluent in english, thus, you will have trouble to speak with them.

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.

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.

Traveled during 06 - 07 Oct 2016. When I booked this hotel, I didn't set high expectation about it because it another hotel I was aiming for was full. So I chose this hotel because it is one among a few hotels on the beach. I am glad I made the right choice. The resort is right on Sunrise Beach and a few minutes walk to city center.

So I chose this hotel because it is one among a few hotels on the beach. I am glad I made the right choice. The resort is right on Sunrise Beach and a few minutes walk to city center. One of the best location in Sunrise beach area. The room that I stayed has no air-con but I didn't need it because was cool at night. Food in the hotel is good and the price is not too expensive for an island. Facilities inside rooms are standard. No minibar, water flow from shower is too slow. Don't let these thing bother you. These are good enough for a budget hotel like this. Highly recommended.

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.

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.

Cannot beat this value for money with the resort literally on the sand at Sunrise Beach. A beach bar with lounge seats next door to enjoy all day and excursions/rentals for dive trips, kayaks, paddle boards, and snorkeling available right from your own lodging. The amenities are basic but exceptionally designed and comfortable; could not ask more from island life.

The hotel is on one of the best spots on sunrise beach has its own private little beach with no tailboats parked up outside like most the other hotels The hotel itself is nice and clean we had the family room for 4 of us 2 adults 2 children and it was perfect 1 king size bed 1 double bed and 1 sofa with great views of the ocean The ocean outside the hotel is great fo...The hotel is on one of the best spots on sunrise beach has its own private little beach with no tailboats parked up outside like most the other hotels The hotel itself is nice and clean we had the family room for 4 of us 2 adults 2 children and it was perfect 1 king size bed 1 double bed and 1 sofa with great views of the ocean The ocean outside the hotel is great for snorkelling and the hotel have all the equipment u can borrow they also have an underwater camera u can hire and they have memory cards u can buy to keep for 200 baht The hotel staff are very friendly it seems like a family run hotel and the staff can’t do enough for you The only negatives I can think of for people with walking disabilities is it’s a quite steep entry in and out of the hotel if u want to head into the centre of Lipe but u can walk along the beach or there is a little hotel bahtbus that takes people along if requested but we found walking along the beach no problem and is about 10-15 mins walk into the centre of Lipe The breakfast is really basic but still I wouldn’t let that stop us from returning next year 9.5/10 from us

Cabana Lipe is located directly at Sunrise Beach and just 5 min. walk from Walking Street.

The room was very clean, breakfast is served on the balcony and there are showers at the beach too which comes very handy. All in all I would recommend this hotel, I was just bothered about all the long tail boats “parking” directly at the beach. The beach at Koh Lipe is just a perfect beach one can imagine but it’s really spoilt by all the boats which are used for island/ snorkeling trips etc. at least at sunrise beach this was the case. You really have to look out for a free spot where you can have a swim.

For first timer to Lipe if you don't know which area to stay. Look no further. This is ideal location if you don't have budget for room facing the sea. It is just 2 mins walk to sunrise Beach and 5 mins to walking street. And then you can see Pattaya beach. Pattaya Beach is too commercial. Sunset Beach is very small. Sunrise Beach is perfect.

I told the owner photos of the rooms of this place on web don't do justice. The actual place is very neat and clean. Big bed with air-con and shower.

(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.

We visited Koh Lipe during the peak of the hot season, and felt that splurging for the A/C double balcony suite was worth it, after moving from a similarly priced fan bungalow on another part of the island. It's a very comfortable and well designed unit, and the amenities are modern, but simple. The wifi worked well, but we had to log in every time we returned.

It's a very comfortable and well designed unit, and the amenities are modern, but simple. The wifi worked well, but we had to log in every time we returned. There's a foot-wash hose and drying rack outside, and there's plenty of closet space indoors. It's perfect to get clean, cool, and rested. The huge rooftop balcony is an excellent place to enjoy the amazing Lipe skies and the Sunrise Beach view. We liked that Gipsy Resort had so many different unit options at different price points, and because of the leafy grounds, all the units enjoy some privacy. I also noticed that the back path to the Walking Street area was equipped with nighttime security cameras. Everything is easily walkable and the beach is a 20 second walk. This is a great value compared to some nearby resorts.
