Kathalee Beach Resort & Spa

A quiet pleasant place, no music, the sound of the sea, birds, wonderful. Time of visit - the end of November, a very strong east wind, the sea was rough, a lot of fish, interesting snorkeling, helpful staff, there is a transfer to Walking Street, you can also walk. In the evening there was a tide, you can no longer walk along the shore. The breakfast is very poor, the furniture is old, the bed linen was good, clean. Peace and quiet are the main plus of this place.

Overall satisfactory stay but not worth the price Positive : Breathtaking view of the sea from the hotel Spacious and rather clean room Breakfast OK except hot drink Negative : - Location: Hotel located at the end of the island and difficult to access on foot because of numerous slopes to reach the hotel. You must take a shuttle offered free of charge by the hotel from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. only. Random departure times and return not guaranteed...so I had to take a tuk tuk (50bath) each time Ideal for those who want to isolate themselves from the walking street... - Reception: no one came to pick me up at the port of Koh Lipe even though the service was included in the price... The owners (Thai and German couple) very cold and haughty... I asked for information on the way to take to reach the hotel and the good woman looked at me pretending not to understand and answered me curtly access via the beach... this attitude is not the image of Thai hospitality so very disappointed ! The only person to have communicated is the young girl who works with the owner (thanks to her) - Hygiene: a cockroach was found in my bathroom on the last evening of the stay and a foul smell coming from the toilets The sheets smell clean but are in poor condition (coffee stain and torn)
