This place is not the Hilton Hotel BUT for the price and location, and as a first timer in koh lipe, i like it! We arrived by ferry and while other travellers were checking maps and trying to get taxis etc, we just looked left and saw the 'Family Song Restaurant' sign .. job done .. the bungalows are set back behind the restaurant! (the next day we watched from a beach bar as the ferry arrived in the rain, i am so thankful for that sign!) .. (the beach bar was the cafe lipe, 20m towards town from the bungalows, superb, NOT the cafe de lipe, different place ?!) .. OK, back to the bungalows .. basic, rustic, bamboo walls so not for honeymooners, but clean and a great walk along the beach to walking street then to town (blue marlin in the KIng Crab restaurant, superb) and a short cut at back of bungalows to Sunset Beach, which, let's be honest, you will go to every night on koh lipe! That or Cosy Cove .. you CAN get over the rocks between them! .. finally, swimming is fine on the Family Song beach to the right, surprisingly quiet, but follow the uninviting rickety bridge for even emptier coves?)?! .. it is hot though so a fridge is a bonus in the room but that is only my opinion; i have no complaints overall! Happy vacations to you all!
