Private Beach - Cashew Nut Cove Windcatcher House!

Built in a western style, with SE Asian influences, our home offers all of the creature comforts of home, with all of the ambiance of island living. Complete with western style kitchen, hot and cold clean running water throughout, there is nothing else like it on Koh Lipe. Enjoy your own Private Staircase, to our Private Beach, where the sunsets are amazing. This is a one of a kind opportunity on Ko Lipe. Windcatcher House was designed to do just that, catch the wind. Even on a still day, if you open all of the windows and sliding glass doors, the house will create it's own breeze. As the only Private Home available on the island, this is truly a one of a kind opportunity. Our home offers all of the comforts of home, and it is a very tranquil place to be. If it's privacy you seek, this is the place for you. Enjoy your own private staircase to our own Private Beach, where you will witness an amazing sunset almost every night. We also have a beautiful massage area on the main floor, with incredible views, that also doubles as a queen size bed. There is almost always a breeze blowing through the house, so even though our home has 4 air con units, we rarely find them necessary. Our home comfortably sleeps 6 adults, and up to 4 children, depending on age, and size. We do limit the total occupancy to not more than 8 people total, including all adults and children. We are very proud of our home, and since we can not be there year round to enjoy it, we have decided to share it with others. Our Home is also equipped with hot and cold water in every faucet and shower. We feel it is necessary to have clean water available to our guests. If you are looking for a resort setting, with lots of people, this is not the place for you. If you would like to experience the peace and tranquility that Lipe has to offer, then this is the place for you. We welcome groups of two families that desire to stay under one roof, rather than multiple separate bungalows. Koh Lipe continues to develop, so If it's privacy you seek, this is one of the few truly private places left on the island. We only rent our home to one guest at a time, so our home is your home to enjoy with your group alone. Our home has a complete western kitchen with all of the amenities, including an oven. We also have hot and cold water throughout the entire home. Laundry service is available upon request, at an additional cost. Since we are only renting the home when we are not using, unfortunately we probably will not have a chance to meet our guest, but we do appreciate any and all comments written in our guest book. We plan to build another guest house on the property, and look forward to being able to share our guests experience with them. Koh Lipe is a beautiful island without all of the usual noise and congestion you find in much of Thailand these days. Even though you can walk around the entire island in less than one hour, our property is perhaps the only place on Lipe where you can not see any other resort on Lipe, from any window in our home. We are only a short seven minute walk to the walking street, but when you are in our home it feels like you are the only people on the island. It is a truly one of a kind experience. Lipe is a very small island, so most people choose to walk everywhere. There is an exceptional taxi service on the island, and our family and staff are happy to assist you in calling one to the house. The island has a fixed flat rate of 50THB per person to go anywhere on the island. Our Home is equipped with clean hot and cold water in every faucet and shower. This comes at a great cost, but we feel it is worth it. Your booking includes 1,000 liters of water per day. If you use any more than 1,000 liters you will need to pay in advance at a cost of 1 THB per Liter. We also supply 20 liters per day of complimentary drinking water in the cooler/heater in the kitchen. If you require more than this it will also be an additional 1 THB per liter. We recommend you work on saving water whenever you can. It’s good for the island, and good for the environment. Taking a "boat shower" will help a lot. This is where you turn the water on to wet yourself, then turn off the water to wash, and then turn the water on again to rinse. We do provide house cleaning every day, unless you ask us not to. Either way our house keepers will be on the property in order to maintain it. At a bare minimum our staff will clean the common areas, and bathrooms at least every other day. We do this is as a courtesy, as well as to maintain the home. The staff are not there to serve you, so please just allow them to do their jobs, and please be respectful. Other services, such as daily room cleaning, laundry, and massage (seasonal, and based on availability), are also available upon request, at an additional cost. You will pay the fee directly to the person who provides the service. Please do not put anything in the toilets if it hasn’t been through you first. Absolutely no toilet tissue or napkins of any kind can go into the toilets. Enjoy the comforts of our home, including our 4 televisions with True Satelite TV with more than 150 channels to choose from. We do have internet service, but since all of Lipe depends on cellular service for internet service, there are times that the signal is weak, or not available at all. We have dogs and cats that live on the property. The dogs are pretty good at staying out of the house, but the cats can be a little more persistent. It is best to keep the deck doors closed if you don't wish for them to come inside. Please do not feed the animals. The staff feeds them twice each day, and you will only be encouraging them to hang around.
