Only went to the bar and didn’t stay at the resort. 

Fabulous place at the end of Sunset Beach. Really friendly staff, amazing views and the best mojitos for only 100baht from 3pm onwards! Only thing I would say to be careful of is the toilet up the cliff and perched precariously overlooking the bay. If you’ve had too many mojitos best to go in the sea instead for fear of falling off the edge getting in and out the loo!

Amazing mojitos, beautiful views and great staff.

I suspect wherever you stay on this island you'll leave happy - it is just a beautiful vibe. 

This accommodation was nice. Pretty basic, but safe and you got your own space. Didn't have hot water for the shower, but I guess that's just part of the island experience. The food and staff were really helpful - getting around the island was easy the staff are always looking to offer lifts and help you, and very cheaply.

The island of dreams

Summary; Backpacker level of quality accommodation at a hotel price. We checked out immediately and went to a hotel.

Details below (✅ Good, 🟠 Ok & ❗️Bad)

✅ Location; I don't think there is a bad location anywhere on Koh Lipe tbh. Sunset Beach is a very quiet beach, but is only a 5 min taxi from everywhere. The resort has a complimentary taxi you can use.

🟠 Accommodation; the sea room we had was basic - ok for backpackers but not if you're on a weeks holiday. It's a traditional beach shack with a bed & small bathroom. There was aircon but surprisingly no mosquito net. 

❗️Price; at the price we paid for this resort we expected better. Ultimately we left and went to another hotel which was pretty much the same price. 

❗️Safety; Would not reccomend if you have children - the walkway/balcony in front of our sea view villa was perilous. The wobbly handrail looked like it could be pushed over easily. I understand these are traditional shacks built on a cliff but this can't be safe.

Backpacker accommodation quality at a hotel price.

avoid! Toxic. not sure what is more toxic, the rooms bug spray/wood treatment or the Owner of the resort. we were attracted by the photos of this place and did not mind the costly (3000TBat) simple accommodation a bid out of town. when checking in there was an intense chem smell in the room, we figured it will go away but after returning in the evening it was still dominant. (we requested a different room, but ower as not interested in moving us. asked if we can chancel the additional 2 days and get a refund. absolutely no way (she was getting paid in cash) when mentioning to the owner, this is a bad business practice that only will lead to a negative review she absolutely when ballistic, jelling,and storming around the office, and in the end, we packed up lost our 6000TBat and move to a great place. I feel sad for the staff that has to work there

Toxic!

If you're looking for somewhere beautiful and relaxing to stay on Lipe, I highly recommend you DON'T stay at Bayview Sunset Resort or Bayview Hill. These two places are one and the same and if you're unfortunate like us, the cabins come with white mould over every surface, the deck outside your room is likely to collapse when you stand on it,  there are holes in the roof with water pouring through electric lights and the customer service is atrocious,  non existent and NOT customer focused at all! 

We had a fantastic week with them in March and so booked again for the start of November but due to the serious health and safety issues there we had to leave after 3 nights.  Despite assuring Booking.com they'd refund me they have not, they are ignoring all my attempts at contact with them and I do not feel they will ever issue the refund we are due. 
I paid over £300 for one week and had to leave after 3 nights so there is 4 full nights refund due of 8,179 Baht.
 The first night my Husbands foot went through the deck outside our room and injured his leg in the process. The next day we were moved to another room that had white mould on every single surface, the woodwork, the floor, the sofa. Everything in the cabin was damp to the touch and it stunk.
  Not wanting to complain I went and got cleaning products and attempted to clean it myself,  it reappeared within hours. The next day we woke to rain pouring through the roof in two places, one dripping through the electric light and one directly into my suitcase. There was also a leak above the door which had totally saturated the curtains. 
We told the owner Lucas we were going to stay elsewhere and he firstly offered us to stay at his new Cannabis hotel and he'd give us a cheap deal....considering we'd already paid for a week and leaving on day 3 we refused.
We booked accommodation elsewhere and the contrast was like night and day. We finally had a clean, dry and decent place to stay.  
Lucas agreed we could have a refund and that we'd get it within 10-15 days, we are now on day 26 and still no refund. I am still being ignored and I just want to warn others that are thinking of staying here not to.
 Koh Lipe us beautiful,  don't let this absolute hovel ruin your time on Lipe.  Yes, I have an axe to grind and I will continue to do so until I get my refund, Any self respecting business owner would rectify this but they flat out ignore all correspondence.  All I can say is SHAME ON YOU Lucas and Bayview.

Health and Safety nightmare. If you want a stay in a mouldy hovel, book now!

We didn’t actually stay at this location but the review is for the owner who went out of his way to call a taxi for us when we got lost. He called multiple companies to get through. We can say with confidence he would make sure you had a nice stay.

Kind owner

It is very disappointing to say that I did not like anything about the resort 

Where do I start.

Let me first say that we booked for four nights and left after one. Communication with the staff on site was hard. Owner and wife were away. I have written to them to explain my situation but nothing has been heard back by way of an apology or compensation. I paid in advance on arrival for 4 nights but we left after one nights stay.

So the main reasons (in no particular order were:

- The beach is not cleaned/tidied unlike many other resorts on Koh Lipe that appreciate that the beach is a selling point to them.
- The resort is above the beach and on many levels with steep stairs that when wet can get slippy. Care must be paid when using the many stairs to the beach and restaurant.
- The restaurant is drab and other than one shared table not covered.  
- Two beers available on the first night
- We booked two seaview rooms/huts. The one was OK. The other (my daughters) had evidence of bed bugs, no mosquito net (although this was provided when asked for) padlock for her hut didn't work (was fixed upon request). No TV as advertised (although not a major issue)
- Breakfast was served with mouldy bread.

All in all not a great experience. We voted with our feet and booked into another resort on Sunrise Beach which was so much better in comparison and cheaper! No effort or care from the resort to try and resolve.

Awful Experience. We Voted With Our Feet

The owner’s wife who works as a staff is so rude. When I tried to order breakfast at seven which was supposed to be at 7:30 am, she shouted and me and even used cooking utensils to try to hit me and scare me. After that she kept complaining and shouting. It’s so rude. Never ever come back.

Terrible female owner

Several levels of rooms available,  nice restaurant with many options, including Lobster. You cannot rent a scooter on the island, but the hotel is very good in helping you get cheap transportation. 50B to really anywhere. If you get a taxi around the island it is 50 B per person. Several nice beaches to visit, Mark the manager will happily assist you in choices and transportation. They also have a restaurant in town, called Fin.

The Ferry to the island is 2 hours with two other island stops for you to spend money. From the island is direct and 1.5 hours.

We opted for a plan B snorkeling tour via the hotel, with 4 snorkeling spots. 2 were very good (2nd and 3rd) . They also take you to 2 islands for photos and monkey island for lunch. Take some cash for lunch time, in case you want more than the included lunch. At lunch you can add snacks or drinks. Bench seating is available with a 5 minute walk down the beach.

Owner and all staff are the best



Great hospitality, good location, great Sunset.

The hosts were very disrespectful and unprofessional. This is the worst customer service we had in all hotels we travelled to (and we travelled a lot). They refused to give us the room because they had a problem with Booking on our confirmed reservation. After 2 hours waiting for him to solve this issue, we just asked to get the room because his issue with Booking was not our concern, but he refused and left. He asked Booking to cancel our reservation and wanted us to leave. He started screaming at us and being aggressive.
