Comfort & Good Customer Service

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 3 Sept 2014
While we stay at Wapi Resort, the Wapi Manager and their employee treat us very well and 1st day at Koh Lipe is raining, they also borrow us umbrella automatically without we asking. The room is clean and simple but it's enough for us to stay and relax. The beach nearby is clean too.

We stayed 6 days in Garden Bungalow G3 on the Wapi Resort. The bungalow is neat, has a large bed, fridge, LCD TV, air-condition and a spacious shower. The bungalow is cleaned on request. The mattresses of the beds are hard. Wapi Resort is currently being expanded with numerous new six bungalows. The breakfast is fine, no buffet but a choice menu. The staff is very friendly and helpful, especially Yo.
The resort is located on Sunrise Beach. Despite the fact that Koh Lipe is one big building site, which we believe is detrimental to the bounty feeling 'Sunrise Beach is still relatively untouched and Wapi is perfect. In low season the restaurant Wapi is only open for breakfast and lunch.
Wapi is a short distance from Walking Street. (5 minutes walk)
In Walking Street you will find several restaurants.

I booked for 2 nights but due to some technical problem, I think. I had only 1 night stay here, host provided room for me at Bella Vista for 1 night instead.

Furnishings are basic standard but room is quite small. Anyway, if you visit Lipe for outdoor activities so it's no big deal.

Nice place for watching sun-rising. Breakfast comes with 3 set upon your selection and you can go to the pier directly from the hotel.

Room tip: Book for sea view room, garden room is very dark at night

We stayed in a Garden room for 10 nights in July. The Garden rooms are set back away from the beach but are large inside and have bigger beds than the Beach rooms.
The room was great - huge bed, table and chair, fridge, a/c, tv, shelves etc, and a patio with 2 chairs and a table.
As we came in low season, the resort was very quiet, and we usually had the beach to ourselves. The beach is lovely, but can get quite small during high tide.
The location is great - right on Sunrise beach, good restaurants either side (Sunrise and Salisa), and a few mins walk to Walking street for more shops and restaurants.
The staff on reception was very friendly and helpful. They cleaned our room straight away when we asked, and we bought our boat ticket back to Pakbara from them for a good price.
In low season they only serve breakfast in their restaurant, and then close the kitchen for the rest of the day so you have to eat elsewhere.

In low season, very little is open - just a handful of shops and restaurants, but the majority of the island seemed shut down. For us this was no problem, and actually meant we had a very peaceful stay.

They are currently building another block of Garden rooms so you may hear some building noise, and when finished, will mean the resort has more people in.

The Garden rooms are directly infront of a road that is used quite a lot by locals on their motorbikes so you can hear them driving past a lot.

The wifi had quite a few issues and wasn't working for quite a lot of our stay. Luckily you can normally also see the networks of the Salisa and Sunrise either side of the resort (you'll need to get the password though).

Room tip: The Garden rooms are set back away from the beach but are large inside and have bigger beds than the Beach rooms.
