The Chic Lipe has a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Ko Lipe. Featuring a bar, the 3-star hostel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available.

The common areas were our favourite part! Tons of areas to stretch, read, make video calls, etc outside of your room. Internet was reliable and fast (I had zoom calls). The beds were comfortable and the AC in the rooms was strong. Staff were super nice! We liked the location a lot, sunrise beach is a 2 minute walk away and was our favourite beach of the whole island! It is also a super short walk to get to walking street where all the action is!

Providing free WiFi throughout the property, Seahorse Lipe Hostel is located in Ko Lipe, 400 metres from Pattaya Beach and 600 metres from Sunrise Beach (Chao Ley Beach).

Sunset Beach (Pramong Beach) is 800 metres from the hostel, while Military Camp is 700 metres away. The nearest airport is Trang Airport, 372 km from Seahorse Lipe Hostel.

The "rooms" were semi-private, meaning you have four walls, but not ceiling. The bed was big (queen / 150cm wide) and comfortable. The area was well climatised so the temperature was nice to sleep. The bathrooms, though there were common, were big and clean with soap and shampoo provided. The owner was always there, very kind and helpful.

Private rooms at Hotel A Plus come with a balcony, a safety deposit box, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with a hot-water shower. Guests of the dormitory room are provided with towels and an access to shared bathroom facilities with a cold-water shower.

Everything was good. Really nice place, would recommend it for sure! The location is amazing, next to the grocery shop. AC is very good in the room. We have a double bed and it was very big. The toilets and bathroom are clean as well. :)

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location in a quiet part of the island. Front row bungalows have direct view and access to the beach which is a game changer. Good breakfast with choices of Western and Thai dishes. Hotel organises transfers from Hay Tai Airport for a cheaper price than local offers at the pier. It's well organised.

    Great location, near to sunrise beach and main walking street. Cheapest accommodation on the island, we knew it would be basic and that was okay. Great for budget travellers.

    Great hostel with semi private rooms with double beds. Ideal or partial privacy and a cheap stay. Not for romantic getaways. Common facilities are adequate. Location is great: quiet but still 2 minutess walk from the main walking street.

    The staff were very friendly the hostel had a great location and the facilities were cleaned daily and kept very clean! The hostel isn’t social so not ideal for solo travelers but great for pairs or couples looking for a clean affordable place to stay right by the walking st ! We enjoyed the owners of the hostel they were very kind and helpful! Also recommended the snorkeling tour they sell it’s amazing!

    Great location, 10 mins from multiple beaches, and really cheap compared to other places! The staff were friendly and not pushy with sales. The shared bathrooms and rooms were clean and tidy.

    Probably the best hostel vibe on the island. Probably not the best comfort since the fan can be quite loud otherwise for the price of the room, it’s just perfect. The staff and the owner are just wonderful and so kind! I wouldn’t change anything about my stay and wished I could have extended a second time for more days. Thanks for everything, I will come back for sure 🤍 Your Belgian friend

    The property is near the beach in a quiet zone. The staff was very friendly and helpful,the guys in reception helped us for everything.We booked with Family Song an island hopping and one day fishing with bbq on the beach,one of the best excursions that we ever had. The bungalow that we booked was very clean,the staff cleaned the rooms every day.There was fridge,safe box,hot shower and the best WIFI that we found in Koh Lipe.We have been in Koh Lipe many times but Family Song is the best low budget place to stay there. Highly recommended.
