Vipa Tropical Resort

Everything was at the highest level, very nice and helpful staff, very clean both in the house and outside, great pool, beautiful surroundings, I will definitely go back there, I recommend very much!!!  

Vipa Tropical was like an oasis away from the hustle and bustle of Ao Nang. About 1.8km from the middle of the main drag, still possible to walk but there’s also a great (free) hourly shuttle to and from. It’s also super easy to hire a motorbike (if you can ride one) from reception, and because you’re hiring it directly you don’t have to deal with a 10,000B deposit or giving a copy of your passport to some random rental person. We spent the first three nights in one of the older ‘cottages’ and it was clean and spacious and good value for the budget price we were paying, but possibly a little tired. We then moved to one of the larger rooms (I think they are called ‘villas’) and I’d definitely recommend going for this option - lovely space and a bit fresher and more fancy. The grounds and gardens are lovely, and the pool is great. Probably the most memorable thing, however, would be the staff. The staff at Vipa were so helpful, friendly and amazing. They really went above and beyond and made us feel so welcome. We really loved our stay there.

There was nothing to dislike, however I would mention that to stay in a beautiful tropical setting (as opposed to a multi-storey hotel where you’re all indoors) means that you may well come across some wildlife, a bird pecking at its reflection in your window as it sits in a tropical plant, or a lizard who is probably equally as baffled to meet you as you are it, for example.

Staff was very nice, beautiful cottages and a lovely pool with an amazing view. Would definitely stay here again.

Nothing.
