Varin Beach Resort

Big hotel with lots of different type rooms. Lobby close to pattaya beach and walking street. Rooms in H block pretty far from the beach. Wifi worked well.

Staff are not always helpful. It was a basic room that was ok for the money.

a good place to stay if you want to stay close to the pier. And the hotel is very close to the walking street. The restaurant during the breakfast time is very busy. You have to be very patient just to get one cup of coffee.

Our room is okay. I'll shower broke whilst we were there and had to get it fixed and our toilet kept overflowing. The room was fine and comfortable but the breakfast was not great at all , eggs well and truly over cooked and cold !! Staff not very helpful or happy to be honest apart from the bag boys !!

Basic room but felt like 1970s Butlins. Room was clean. Pool was good. Breakfast was bad - fried eggs were probably cooked yesterday and cold. Hotel grounds were dirty. Lots of rubbish on the site which had clearly been there a long time. Convenient location for Langkawi ferry and walking street. Service was just about ok. Overall expensive for what we got. Nicer hotels for a little more money eg Akira

We traveled over Christmas with a party of 8 - 3 generations in a family. We had a positive experience on arrival. Staff were friendly and helpful however we specifically asked for downstairs rooms on booking as we traveled with our 85 years old mother. Rooms were all upstairs with no downstairs available but they did offer to swap our rooms the next day. We were offered to change but the room was too far from the rest of our party. They did organise a wheelchair which was very helpful. The rooms were clean apart of coffee stains on the furniture. But BE AWARE if you are booking a room for 3 or more as the extra ‘bed’ is a 8” foldable mattress on the floor! For 85 years old person! We tried to book another room but unfortunately there were no vacancies it at least the let us have an extra mattress to build the bed up a bit. This was going to carry a charge of 200 B but it was waived. Bit disappointed in leaving as during our stay one of the plastic balcony chairs literally fell apart as it was already cracked and old and they were trying to make us pay 500 B which we did not as it happened to my daughter who ways about 50kg and she hurt her back in the process. All in all we loved Koh Lipe. The staff at the hotel were lovely and it was clean but we would choose another place to stay next time.

I couldnt make it for legitimate reason and they refused to refund me,

Booked a room with a fan, not sure if it was my fault or the site's error. They wanted an addition 1,000 Baht per night for A/C. Rough it out every night but had a good time Kol Lipe.

A good stay at the Varin. The location is excellent. Pool was nice. Water pressure great and plenty hot water. It was an excellent location. We probably would stay here again.

Great location, close to beach, shops and restaurants. Quiet.

The room we had was not only made of paper, but the walls were bubbling and needed repair. Room was musty, and check in is a nightmare. You may want to think about, precheck so everyone doesng need to do it at once. Breakfast, location and pool are definitely the high points. Due to Chinese New Year it was so hard to find a place, but have definitely stayed at cheaper and better on the island. But location is Great!

We stayed at this resort for four nights—three in a Villa and one in a basic room. While the Villa was comfortable and enjoyable, the basic room didn’t quite meet our expectations for the price. It felt overpriced, likely due to Koh Lipe’s popularity. If you’re planning to visit, I’d highly recommend booking in advance to get better value for your stay. Overall, the resort is decent, but pricing could be more reasonable.

Many reviews mention that the breakfast isn’t great—well, it’s free! If you don’t like it, you’re always free to pay for something elsewhere. The rooms are basic, so don’t expect luxury. High prices for what you are getting are understandable, as this is a high demand island.

Only nice was the location. No room cleaning for 1 week, had to chase them to grt new towels. Awful check in experience.. all in all, no good value for your money

Great place and convenient to the pier drop off point. Dada at the front counter check in is so kind and helpful we decided to stay another 3 days. Thank you Dada and crew! Keep up the good work!

Great place for a vacation. Right on the main beach main drag. Good cafes and bars right next door. Plus, the tours pick up from the lobby.

Spend the extra money and stay somewhere better. This hotel has a great location but nothing else. Unhelpful reception, pool is the bare minimum and for some reason not built on the beach, complimentary breakfast is so bad, we skipped the last 2 of 4 days.

Excellent location with a lovely pool and good breakfast selection. Our son’s mattress was very hard and only had a thin sheet so he was freezing with the air con. Had to pay extra for a decent blanket.
