Un bon séjour pour profiter de l’île
Pros:

L’emplacement est idéal pour profiter au mieux de l’île. Le petit déjeuner est très qualitatif et la grande plage horaire pour en profiter est très appréciable.

Cons:

La chambre au rez de chaussée n’est pas agréable, manque de lumière et pas de possibilité d’ouvrir la fenêtre.

We komen zeker terug!
Pros:

Mooie kamer, schoon, warme douche, ontzettend vriendelijk personeel, het ontbijt was fantastisch (de beste in 3 weken Thailand)

Cons:

Het matras was heel hard
Je moet een klein stukje lopen naar het strand (5-10 min) maar zit well vlakbij veel restaurants

Fajny hotel, 2 minuty od głównego deptaka
Pros:

Pokoje małe ale jest w nich to czego potrzebujesz do spania (łóżko, klimatyzacja). W łazience mydło, szampon, odżywka. Lodówka z produktami z 7/11 w cenach sklepowych. Darmowa mała woda. Śniadania podawane są z karty i są bardzo smaczne. Byliśmy przed godziną zameldowania - dostaliśmy powitalny koktajl co było bardzo miłe.

Cons:

Komary (nie tylko w obiekcie ale na całej wyspie) - trzeba szybko zamykać drzwi :)

Solide Unterkunft 🏝️☀️
Pros:

Das Café und der Aussenbereich waren sehr schön. Das Frühstück und das Personal waren eine glatte 1!

Cons:

Teilweise schon verwohnt und das Bad müsste neu gemacht werden. Darüber hinaus war eine Jalousie defekt.
Die Unterkunft liegt an einer Straße und man kann schon die Müllautos ordentlich hören. Am besten packt man Ohropax ein. Zudem sind dort Mücken. Die Unterkunft sollte ein Mosquitonetz aufhängen.

Pros:

Das liebevolle, frische Frühstück à la carte und die Freundlichkeit haben uns sehr überzeugt. Die Lage ist sehr zentral zu den umliegenden Stränden, der Walking Street mit zahlreichen Restaurants, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Massageangeboten. Wir hatten ein sauberes großzügiges Familienzimmer mit Terrasse und haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Für 50 THB/ P. kann man unkompliziert mit dem Taxi in wenigen Minuten vom Pier zum Hotel gelangen oder mit weniger Gepäck zu Fuß.

Fabulous room in Koh Lipe
Pros:

The studio was a great size; very spacious. The location is excellent. Staff were lovely. Breakfast (all food and drink!) was great too.

Cons:

Limited contact after 4pm and emergency only contact after 9pm via a tablet that didn’t work. I’d expect to be able to speak to someone up to 9pm at least as we were missing a towel from housekeeping.

Bon séjour
Pros:

Le petit déjeuner délicieux, varié et avec une grande plage horaire. L'emplacement de l'hôtel est très pratique pour les plages et la walking street

Cons:

La chambre au RDC avec peu de lumière et pas de possibilité d'ouvrir la fenêtre, pas de vue. La quantité de moustiques et l'idée d'installer des moustiquaires au lit

Perfekt og roligt til 4 overnatninger.
Pros:

Super god morgenmad med surdejsbrød😉 og tilpas mængde. Dejligt med morgenmad til kl.16.
Generelt rent.
Fik gratis vand hver dag.
Lejligheden med hems passede godt til 4 personer. God opbevaringsplads og rummelighed.

Cons:

Til tider kraftig støj fra vejen. Meget høje trin til hems. Afløb stoppede nemt, tidsrum for rengøringen var meget lille. Manglede en kost og fejebakke til at tage det værste sand.

A great base for Koh Lipe
Pros:

This is a great hotel to use as a jumping off point to explore Koh Lipe. The island is so small that everything is in walking distance so you can easily be on any beach in a matter of minutes. It’s also just off Walking Street so you have easy access to bars and restaurants. The staff are so lovely and we enjoyed our daily breakfast in the cafe. The room was spacious if a little shabby chic but we spent most of our time exploring the island anyway!

It was absolutely delightful. The staff was amazing and so was the cafe.
Pros:

It was very nice. Loved that they served breakfast until 4 pm.

Cons:

That it was close to the road, thus road noise.
