Nice place, bad restaurant staff
Overall, this place was lovely. Although I didn’t realize this was a wellness retreat prior to booking , I really enjoyed the quiet atmosphere, the breakfast was complementary and delicious, and the rooms were well equipped with a safe deposit box, a mini fridge, toiletries, and air-conditioning. I also really appreciated the complementary use of a KAYAK during my stay . My only complaint about this place is the staff in the restaurant. The service was extremely slow, even when I was the only customer, and they were not particularly friendly or accommodating. The first meal I had there was a salad, that was supposed to come with certain ingredients on it (ie. pistachios and avocado) and when the salad arrived it did not contain the ingredients listed on the menu. When I said something to my waitress , She looked confused and just said that they no longer carry those items. I also found a spider in the same salad towards the end of my meal, and there were no apologies or discounts given. I thought that was a poor response. Otherwise the juices and smoothies that I had were delicious, but the food was very overrated and the service was not the best. With that being said the rest of the staff at the resort was extremely friendly and accommodating, including the taxi driver Moo and his wife the receptionist. I also had an extremely enjoyable massage in the spa. The location of the resort Is not very conveniently located so you will need a car or scooter to get around.

Good hotel on nice beach location
Very nice hotel located directly on the beach. Two pools, direct access to beach, very good breakfast buffet and helpful staff - what more do you need. Unfortunately, our itinerary meant only a single night stay and we were honestly sad to leave without having more chance to enjoy.

Lipa lovely is lovely indeed
A lovely hotel on a long beach with island views. The staff are friendly and helpful. Very good Thai food is served at the restaurant as well as 2 local restaurants within walking distance. I visited this part of Samui because I was taking the ferry to the mainland, however, I am willing to consider staying in the area during my next longer visit. By the way, they packed me a breakfast to take away the next morning. Very nice

The best of both worlds: Lovely Lipa & Orion
Lipa Lovely is a great resort if you are looking for a place to relax. The area of the hotel is shared with Orion Retreat centre, which means there is a lovely vegan/raw restaurant next to the Lipa Lovely restaurant. This means that it was possible to combine super healthy meals with our relaxed week at the beach. Even better: I could order my #health meals at the orion restaurant, while my partner orderd the pizza from the Lipa menu. The perfect combination for all couples!

Great beach-side hotel
This is a great hotel for the price. Spacious, beach facing one-room villas that were perfect for a couple with a toddler. There are a few eating options around, but the restaurant on the property is excellent with plenty of options and great Thai food. This area of the island is quiet, but a great option if that's what you're looking for.

Peaceful
Overall it's a very quiet place with lovely view. Keep in mind it's a three star so do not compare it to Conrad or Marriott. Amazing value for location and we used it as a break from trip to mainland Thailand and Cambodia. This place is far from any bigger towns and is very peaceful.Also close to ship pier and since we flew AirAsia our last leg was a boat to the island so it worked out great.

On nice quiet beach
The resort was really lovely and if you are looking for a quiet beach away from crowds on other side of Koh Samui or Koh Phi Phi this is where you want to be. Good breakfast and good restaurant on the resort as well as a number of good restaurants within walking distance. Beautiful sunsets and staff very nice.

Not the worst, and definitely not the best
The view from the beach bungalow was great, the seclusion was also nice. However, the service was lacking (cleaning was not detailed, grimey doorknobs, dog poo on the porch, bird poo on the loungers, sandy rooms) and the facilities could have been better (the beach loungers were old and the cushions kept sliding off, uneven concrete slabs, rusty metal thing on the beach (??), cigarette butts everywhere in the sand, tiny swimming pool, mosquitoes everywhere- no repellent provided for the room, super sandy rooms resulting from no broom or effective mat to keep the sand out, and spotty internet). That being said, it wasn't horrible. There's no way to control the type of guests that will stay at the same time, but all the aforementioned things plus rowdy and obnoxious guests made for an off-putting experience. There are also no phones in the rooms for you to call the front desk, so if you were out on the north side of the property, you had to walk over to the front desk every time to ask for anything. In addition, whenever we asked for assistance, the staff seemed reluctant to help and unwilling to go the extra mile (unusual for Thai resorts).The price didn't seem worth it for all the little issues that kept popping up.

Quiet resort with good food and friendly staff.
We had a bungalow for two nights and it was delightful. Rooms were clean and shower hot. Wished we could have stayed longer. Great place to use as base if you want to explore the island. Nathan pier 20 mins away. Phone hotel prior to arrival and they will pick you up for 300 baht! Great service at reception. We will be back.

Really, I was only there for a wedding.....
As soon as I arrived, I received an immediate upgrade. That was totally unanticipated. It turned out my upgrade was a tidy little bungalow with a private shower and a queen sized bed. I was one minute from the Big John restaurant and two minutes to the ocean front. The common area was tidy and neat and not surrounded by trees so the breeze from the ocean was a welcome coolness in the midday heat. The Thai massage I had at the little resort was the best massage I had during my entire stay (I ended up having one every day)!

Needs an upgrade
There are 2 parts to the resort and very split. Superior rooms on 1 side are dated, though comfy beds and rooms are clean. There are better places along the beach house which are more modern and better value for money. The food in Big Johns is good. Staff in travel centre not very helpful and limited English spoken. Pools is small with limited loungers and beach area out front should be kept in cleaner conditions.

Stayed here bc we had a boat to catch at 7 in the morning. But we wish we had stayed longer than one night! They're amazing! The service was beyond expectations and they helped with everything we needed and more! They even boxed our breakfast to bring with us on our trip since we wouldn't be around for the breakfast at the hotel. Food at the restaurant was phenomenal! The beach was beautiful and had very little people. Felt good to be on an 'untouched' beach after being at Patong and Chaweng. Only downs: a lot of mosquitos at night fall and there was a lot of spiders/ants/lizards on their reclining chairs which made it hard to relax on them (which we didn't bc of the bugs). Overall I was very very happy with this place! I would definitely recommend! Just hope they take some time to clean their outdoor furniture!

"Lovely" a bit of a stretch, but "adequate."
It's fine. The beach is nice. It's on the quiet side of the island so no loud parties or anything (but there's also nothing much in walking distance). Rooms are clean, buildings are attractive. Restaurant is OK, nothing special. Overall a little expensive for what it is.

Hezký resort s nádhernou pláží, čisté pokoje, pěkný bazén. Příjemná obsluha v recepci i velice příjemné uklizečky pokojů. Velmi dobré jídlo a výběr čerstvých džusů, smoothie atd. Velké negativum je obsluha v restauraci - většina personálu nepříjemná, pomalá, otrávená, navíc s velice špatnou angličtinou což způsobovalo že většinu objednávek zkazili.

In die Jahre gekommene Unterkunft in Strandnähe
Die Anlage ist ideal um einen ruhigen Urlaub am Strand zu verbringen. Die Unterkünfte sind geräumig, jedoch scheinen sie leider etwas vernachlässigt zu sein. In unserer Unterkunft kam bei Regen das Wasser von der Decke und lief auch durch das geschlossene Fenster. Im Bad blätterte die Farbe von der Decke und unter einigen Fenstern waren Spuren von eintretendem Wasser zu sehen. Nachdem das Badewasser schon vor dem Baden dreckig aus der Leitung kam, mieden wir das Baden in unserer Behausung. Der Pool machte einen gepflegten Eindruck, hier hätten wir alle viel Spaß. Das Personal war in der ganzen Anlage freundlich und zuvorkommend. Besonders zu empfehlen sind die Massagen und die Auswahl an frischen Eierspeisen beim Frühstück. Leider dauerte es beim Frühstück manchmal etwas bis Nachschub kam, aber womöglich lag das auch an unserem späten Eintreffen. Wunderschönes und vor allem leckeres Restaurant Mango Garden um die Ecke, sonst sehr abgeschieden.

Prima resort maar kan wel groot onderhoud gebruikn
We hebben hier een week in een familiebungelow gezeten met twee slaapkamers. Het ligt direct aan het strand maar je moet wel een auto hurennom in de bewoonde wereld te komen. Het personeel doet zijn best, maar het complex kan groot onderhoud gebruiken. De zee heeft alles behoorlijk aangetast en het is redelijk gedateerd. Er heerst ook een ietwat alternatieve sfeer door de spirituele activiteiten zoals yoga en workshops die door Orion worden verzorgd.

Geweldige rustplek aan het strand
De foto's kloppen exact. What you see is what you get. Het is schoon, personeel is vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Wij waren aangenaam verrast. Het doet weg aan een bungalowpark. Er heerst rust, misschien omdat we in het laag seizoen hier zijn. Tien stappen buiten de kamer en je staat op het strand. Ook fijn dat het erg dichtbij de Lipa Noi Pier zit, waar je aankomt met de ferry vanaf Don Sak.
