Villas Bukit Lipah

Who it's for

Two couples or a family with older kids who want to stay under one roof but sleep in separate bedrooms.

Why we chose it

You're not booking a room in a resort but an entire villa. The kitchen opens onto an open terrace overlooking the ocean and the bay, and one floor down there's a seating area by the pool, which belongs to your villa alone. Each of the five villas is named after one of the elements and decorated differently. All around is a permaculture garden with tropical fruit and vegetables.

For four guests, compare the villa with two hotel rooms, not one. Here you also get a shared living area and kitchen on top of that.

What to know before booking

Pick the specific layout before you confirm. Booking lists both two and three bedrooms, while the operator's website describes two-bedroom villas.

What to bear in mind

If you want to swim in a particular bay, check the property's location and the route down to the water.
