Varin
At check it was so nice to be greeted by very happy staff special praise to Pum and Dada, they were amazing. Now for the downside there were only 3 umbrellas around the pool area 2 of which were broken so very little or no shade. The sunbeds didn't have cushions on them they were so hard it was difficult to lay on them for more than 5 minutes. A lack of rubbish bins around the pool, at times trash was left anywhere as there was no bins. Finally my biggest concern. The coffee machine in the restaurant of which there is only 1 is no better than useless. Everyday there are people queuing just for a cup of coffee. To finish would I stay at the Varin Resort again, Yes, definitely. Brilliant location and amazing staff.

The hotel is very disorganized. Rooms not available on time. I had to queue for over an hour at the front desk to check in. The site is neglected. Rubbish and building material lying around the resort. Not good.

Room was a good size and clean enough but the grounds were dirty and scruffy. Staff were so unfriendly and u helpful. Checkin took 45 minutes. One person had an issue with his room an the receptionist pretended she didnt understand English even though she had just been having a perfect convention with another person in English 2 minutes priorr to his complaint. The location is great but i th island is that small it doesnt matter whwreyou stay pool also only has 8 beds even though it has 100s of guests so unless u get there at 8am there is no piint using it

This is our third time or maybe fourth time at Varin Beach Resort we always come back here for the good price, excellent location, friendly and helpful staff. Areas of improvement is the food which they lack a bit of western dishes, they do try but still a long way to go, but they're super friendly so it goes a long way in making us feel welcome. We will definitely come back to Varin Beach hopefully end of the year

Not recommended
The resort itself is fine - good location, nice pool area, nice lobby. But the "deluxe" room was horribly uncomfortable, with the hardest bed I have slept on in Asia. I ended the trip here halfway through and moved to another hotel - that is how bad the bed was. Three nights of sleeping on that "mattress" and my neck hurt so badly I could barely move. When I checked out 3 days early, the staff did not even bother to ask why. The resort has some nice amenities, but the beds in their deluxe rooms are so bad that it ruined the experience.

Okay stay given the entire island is expensive
Positives: - room looked like pictures for most part - big enough room - pool area was nice - big breakfast selection Negatives: - check in and out was incredibly slow - staff seemed slightly rude and it wasn’t a language barrier - when we arrived at the hotel before we were even allowed to step in to the lobby we were hassled by a staff member wanting to see our email to confirm booking before. - pool area could have had some more sun loungers given the size of the resort

We really liked the breakfast buffet, especially the thai dishes, but it's lacking good coffee. Also, breakfast only until 10 is not good for people who like to sleep long and checkout until 10 is also too early in my opinion. Room was good, staff friendly and helpful and the pool is also nice.

Very nice hotel. Location is very near the Walking Street. However, there's no kettle at the room. So if you travel with baby, is not really recommended. Or perhaps need to choose other type of room instead. Overall its a comfort stay.

Price over rated for what you get at the resort.
The resort looks new but the inside of the rooms is not new and bed was not comfortable and looks old for a new place . Aircon was not working well , also looks like an old one and wifi is not working in the rooms , only at the reception.

Budget wonderful Bungalow with excellent pool!
I booked the Deluxe Villa, but most important to me is location so I’ll start with that. It has the perfect location for you to get anywhere. The island isn’t big, but a 15 min walk to walking street can get annoying after a few days. This hotel is right next to immigration when you get to the island, and the first resort on the beach next to the beginning of walking street. The Deluxe Villa has AC, a cute setup out front. Table and chairs, towel rack etc. the showers are a bit dated but they are just fine for a bungalow! The pool is excellent and nice change from salt water if you like that. Also open at night! There are many kids during the day, but no noise at night. The only thing is I felt uncomfortable at check in, every time I tried to speak with them they would say something to each other and start laughing. After bwing in Thailand for a month, I realize this is the way when they don’t understand you, and let’s be honest I should know their language if I’m in their country.... but it would have been nice to have some way to communicate. Google translate didn’t work for them either.

Koh Lipe
I have stayed here before. It’s a great location right on the beach, but a bit of a walk if in a back building. It’s a large complex. If you want a minibar you need to pay a 300 baht upgrade so cold beer off property. There’s still only Thai channels on TV, but with the beautiful beach who cares.
