Guest brandane69 Posted August 23, 2017 Posted August 23, 2017 Visiting Koh Lipe for short vacation 28-31August ~ can you recommend any gay bars on the island where i can meet young guide to show me around the island. I am senior daddy not looking for diving or snorkelling trip but would like to see other islands in the Maritime park. Would be nice to have relaxing gentle massage as not able to take deep tissue muscle manipulation nowadays. Basically a quiet vacation ~ sipping cool cocktails ~ and someone nice to chat and tell me all about this beautiful island. Thanks Daddy Quote
bobsaigon Posted August 23, 2017 Posted August 23, 2017 Koh Lipe on the map looks like the entire island could be covered on foot in about an hour. And looks unlikely that there would be a be a gay bar there, but you'd probably be able to hire someone to meet your needs. ChristianPFC 1 Quote

Thanks Daddy Good choice for a relaxing vacation and some tasty Thai/seafood. Great choice for diving and snorkeling with some of the clearest waters I've seen in Thailand. Some interesting islands nearby for day trips. Your hotel can make the arrangements for you I believe. We went in Dec 2015 via Hatyai during the peak season and it was very busy with Thai and Malaysian holidaymakers. The peak season attracts many farang backpackers but I wouldn't say the island was overflowing with farangs like the other beach resorts. Not much in the way of nightlife - a few bars on Pattaya Beach. No specifically gay bars - too small an island for one and we didn't find them necessary. Almost everyone is there for the sea, diving and seafood. Chilled kind of place. I remember one of the bar owners telling us that he only opened six months of the year, from December to May and spends the rest of the year attending to his business in Bangkok. Apparently this wasn't unusual for the island. I'm quite sure you wouldn't be able to find an escort from one of the bars in that organised sort of way that you can in Pattaya or Phuket. But I suppose you can make a friend before you go to the island to show you around - someone who's familiar with the area? I did see a couple fairly standard oil and foot massage places and I'm pretty sure they'd be able to arrange a gentle massage for you if you stayed at one of the bigger hotels. We really enjoyed ourselves on Lipek and spent a night in Hatyai on our way to Penang where we pigged ourselves out again. Hatyai would be the nearest Thai airport but I think Langkawi is nearer. Hatyai has a very small male go go bar and a 'gay' karaoke - friendly but not worth going if you're going primarily for commercial sex tourism on the scale I've seen on these forums. Quote
Guest brandane69 Posted August 24, 2017 Posted August 24, 2017 Hello Sglad ~ assume you are from Singapore? This was going to be my first choice as have not been to Sg for about 15 years and eager to see the improvements and changes to the island. The cost of hotels put me off and obviously much cheaper for 10 days in Thailand. Thanks so much for your good advice about Ko Lipe ~ and agree it will be relaxing vacation lazing by the hotel pool and cocktails by the pool bar ~ I am rather past deepsea diving and snorkelling now. My last experience snorkelling ~ strangely was on my last trip to Singapore ~ when I travelled to Tioman island, Malaysia where I snorkelled and suffered severe sunburn ~ so do not wish to experience this again on Koh Lipe. Read somewhere ~ think it was on Nomadic website that the island does attract gay couples where a gay friendly resort is run by two guys! I would have considered this place if my partner was able to travel with me but unfortunately he cannot be with me. This is reason i wanted to find a guide ~ not rent a boy or sex partner ~ just a nice person to talk with. The Nomad website suggested a couple of bars ~ Mango Mellon and Maya ~ but not been able to find these on any website. I have only just found this webpage yesterday ~ and very pleased to hear from you ~ thank you so much. Maybe I catch you in Sg - one day, cheers Daddy Quote
