Where to stay in Karon

The best part of this hotel is the swimming pool and water park slide. There are three pools suitable for children of different ages, making it a great choice for families. The front desk and restaurant staff are friendly and helpful. However, there are some downsides. During the rainy season, the rooms are very damp, and the bed sheets and covers often feel moist. There are many insects in the room...

ideal for families seeking fun pools, helpful staff, and a beachside location without breaking the bank. While the essentials are well-managed (cleanliness, service, breakfast), the rooms and facilities show signs of age, and maintenance in bathrooms and buffet restocking could improve.

Nice resort with big pool and water slides. Have fun staying here. Will come back again

it was wonderful stay at Orchid resort so comfy and good breakfast

There are big pools with slides, kids will have fun here. The staff are friendly and helped us to upgrade the rooms, but this is a relatively old hotel so the facilities may need some maintenance.

Hotel and facilities were good and perfect for families, beds comfortable. However disappointed of the cleanliness of shared areas such as pool area, it was not cleaned regularly, empty dirty plates and glasses were left for long periods of time, sometimes sitting over night. A empty cocktail glass and plate sat dirty outside. Our room from other quests for 3 days.

Water slides and beach in few meters

Room is spacious and 5 mins walk to Karon beach, staff is friendly, overall is good.

The hotel staff are incredible

Great experience. So many swimming pools and activities for a short stay. Good for families! Would go back again

This hotel is reeeeealy nice! Great rooms, friendly stuff, bar at the pool. There are all your needs in 1 place. 7 min to the beach, 3 minutes to shops and restaurants. Has own restorable.

Everything is perfect! Will definitely come back again.

The best hotel we have stayed before! Spacious room, kids love the slide and water play at swimming pool. If only hotel restaurant serve halal food it would be great for muslim guest as its not easy to find halal eatery shop nearby.

Such a beautiful location, super friendly and always smiling staff, amazing food, and everything was really clean. Thanks for an awesome holiday — definitely recommend!

I stayed at the BW Phuket Ocean Resort for 2 weeks with my mother, and I was truly delighted with our experience. What really stood out to me was the incredible warmth of the staff. Every morning, Su and June welcomed us with genuine smiles and such attentive service. Their kindness and professionalism made each breakfast feel enjoyable. I also want to thank Yu whose constant smile and helpful attitude...

A great property near Phuket’s beautiful yet less crowded Karon beach. Booked a hotel near Karon beach as Patong beach is usually very crowded. Wouldn’t recommend the place for people using wheelchairs as the property has a whole lot of stairs. They have 2 - 3 pools along with restaurant. Breakfast at the restaurant was decent but very limited choices for a buffet. They offer towels to use the beach...

We stayed here for a week in Feb 2025 and had a wonderful time. The hotel is clean and cosy, has a convenient location close to the beach and the centre of Karon. Its amenities were all that we needed. And the best thing about the venue was its friendly, helpful, cheerful and always-smiling staff. We especially felt well taken care of by Mr John Ervin Gulfan, who made our stay even more pleasant with...

Exceeded my expectations! Value for Money! Great breakfast, super clean rooms and superb shower! Room was facing the road but I can barely hear any road noise! All staff are nice, lobby has a drink dispenser for guests and lastly location is perfect whether you want to go Rawai or Bang Tao direction.

This hotel is perfectly placed in a spot where closely anything you'd need as a tourist is within walking distance. The staff is EXTREMELY friendly. The breakfast is AMAZING. There are 4 pools: 1 kiddies and 3 adult pools). There is an ironing room for free use, a washing machine and dryer for a fee. There's a 7 eleven practically at your door. There's a big waiting area if you have an early check...

Very friendly people. The Room is clean with great garden view. 3 swimming pools. Close to the beach and dino minigolf.

Decent location between two beaches. Breakfast is great. Pool is also nice. However, the room facilities are a bit old.

We had a wonderful stay! The service was excellent — housekeeping was efficient, and the reception staff were always friendly, polite, and ready to help with anything we needed. Daily breakfast was tasty and well-organized, and the free shuttle service with a kind and helpful driver made everything even more convenient. The swimming pool is great, the hotel grounds are beautiful, and the beach is...

Very nice hotel ! We enjoyed very much

Good resort. Walking distance from the karon beach. Breakfast was good. Comfortable stay in the rooms

Suitable for young and fit individuals as it requires a steep incline to get to the reception and down slope to exit. From the reception there is a golf buggy available at all times to get to the hotel rooms. The breakfast is nice for the price point of the room and location. The pool was adequate and not much used by guests. Most guests are Russian or East European and friendly. The drainage system...

Great hotel,wonderful people,delicious breakfast,big rooms, fair value, nice location and good facilities

The hotel is spacious and well-equipped with amenities such as a game room, fitness center, and three swimming pools. The service is excellent. The only drawback is its location, as the beach is a 5–10 minute drive away.

Friendly staff, near karon beach. Great choices of breakfast

A Wonderful Stay! We had a great experience at this hotel — they definitely live up to their star rating. I couldn’t be happier with our stay. The staff were incredibly helpful, everything was clean and nicely maintained, and the atmosphere was welcoming. A special shoutout for the lovely surprise on my birthday — they brought out a cake at breakfast, which was such a thoughtful and sweet gesture...

We had the best experience staying at Avista Grande Phuket Karon! Situated on top of a low hill, the resort has an amazing view of the Andaman Sea. It's also conveniently just a short walk to Karon beach and to Kata town center. The room we stayed in had a beautiful modern design and had access to a private pool. The hotel also offered a wide variety of food selections for breakfast. However, it was...

Room was clean, and the service was good as well. Went there to celebrate my dad Birthday, and he was pleased.

located at the Karon Kata border of Karon beach, it's 20 mins from Patong. A quick walk across the road gives access to miles of beach. Local shops and bars/ restaurants galore. Great pool and good food options at the restaurant and in room dinning

We recently stayed at this hotel and had an amazing experience! The location is perfect—close restaurants and public transport, making it very convenient to explore the city. The service was outstanding. The staff was friendly, professional, and always ready to help. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed. Overall, this hotel offers great value for money....

This hotel located near the beach and next to the very beautiful park. They have everything near by: motorbike for rent, night market, good restaurants, 7-11, etc They offered me the room on top and so subtle. I love the contents they put on all the small stuffs that they provided. The hotel is so clean, staff is very nice, pillow is so soft. I love their pool very much. Definitely will stay here...

The place is very close to Karon beach and had many convenient shops around. Place was really clean and staff are very friendly. Will stay again when i visit phuket!

Had a lovely stay at Jono X, the hotel is quite modern which is nice. Location is close to the beach and hotel is relatively clean. The pool is nice, very simple but relaxing. The staff were the best - very welcoming and helpful, had a couple of hiccups which the staff happily helped with such as having to move rooms twice as there was an odd smell coming from the shower drains so if you get a room...

Marvelous hotel, service is impeccable, location is extremely convenient

Location is great, with steps to restaurants and massage shops. Walking distance to Karon Beach and kids had great fun there. Room size is ok, the bench/sofa can fit a kid well (160cm). Shower room water leaked to bedroom but not a big deal, the room service/maintenance ppl came very fast. There’s a small kids club at the entrance, kids can kill some time. Quite a value for money choice!

We upgraded to a room with direct pool access, which they offered upon check-in. The hotel is spotless, with friendly and efficient staff. You cannot get much closer to the beach or the main street for the shops and restaurants, but there was no noise to be heard. WE WOULD BOOK AGAIN WITHOUT A DOUBT.

Everything from the location, breakfast, staff, and aesthetic of the property was great! We had a first floor room with a pool ladder on the balcony so it was easy access to the swim up bar. The age of folks was a bit in the older range so if you’re looking for a party hotel, this isn’t it. It was low key and quiet, despite being off a Main Street that can get very loud and bustling. The breakfast...

Excellent rooms and amenities. Rooms are spacious and well-equipped. Breakfast has an excellent selection. Pool is big and has a range of depths. Fitness center was good, if you want it. Great location for spending time on the beach. The social night with the owners is a really nice touch. We almost had an issue since Booking.com had the right number of people in our confirmation, but not in what...

Great location, quiet, peaceful, good view from the 4th floor. Welcoming helpful staff, work well, professional. The hotel was a mom with our son. The beach is right across the street, close to all infrastructure. Also in the hotel there was a party, which we could not attend due to busy work, but mom and son were very pleased, had a great time. Good breakfasts, everything is enough. Large swimming...

The hotel was very good and clean, and it is perfectly located right by the beach. It has everything you need for a comfortable stay, including spacious rooms. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I would especially like to praise Usman, who really made our stay memorable. He was not only kind and service-oriented but also spoke fluent English and helped us with everything we needed. A big thank...

We stayed here during a peak season ( Thanksgiving week) so we did pay a premium for the rooms, so my review might be a bit skewed here. Pros: -Spacious room for being in the beach and cost -Early check in was easy ( just make sure you email them back on your ETA) -I requested the quiet room and they upgraded our room to the walk up pool room at no cost -location is right near the beach and shops...

The best location on Karon A room is spacious, bed is confortable Good cleaning The staff is hospitable and ready to help. Conveniently ordered a taxi to the airport.

We found this hotel to be an exceptional value. The stunning view of the beach provides a perfect backdrop for a truly quiet and relaxing stay. We never had trouble finding a spot by the pool, as there were always plenty of comfortable sun loungers available. The staff's service was fantastic, and while the breakfast was simple, it was delicious and more than enough to start our day. The hotel's location...

The staff were friendly and polite and the resort delivered a great service!

Beyond Karon was absolutely brilliant! The staff are particularly incredible! The coffee bistro lady as well as the lady who prepared our eggs in the morning just gave the best start to every day! From the security guard at the entrance, to the lobby and reception staff, the cleaning staff, housekeeping etc! Everyone was beyond amazing! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and we will most definitely return...

Very comfortable rooms, the airconditioner is so nice and cold! The view is absolutely beautiful! The staff is very friendly.

It's absolutely brilliant. The location, the pool, the staff, the beach, proximity of everything. Highly recommend

Facilities a bit old but direct access to the beautiful beach. Magnificent seaview during sunset.

Nice but cheap so be ready location is not that good far from the beach

For the price it’s okay, but you can hear everything from outside and the AC has a weird smelling. Room is mostly clean, nice Balkon

The room was RM70 per night but we need to pay 3000baht for deposit when we check in at the counter. The deposit must pay by cash it is not friendly to tourist. We stay at different hotel for the previous day so we dont have enough cash to pay for it and the staff told us to withdraw cash at 7-11 to pay for deposit. We requested for twin bed room, but they arrange us queen bed room without informing...

My family and I enjoyed our stay. Everyone was so friendly and helpful and extremely professional.

We had a lovely stay, staff were very helpful and friendly, our room was cleaned everyday with fresh towels. Online it says they have laundry facilities but when checking in they said they don’t. The food was ok but disappointed in the size of the burger. Overall I would recommend this place

Very beautiful and cosy stay.. very friendly staff and nice swimming pool. I loved my stay

My family and I were at the hotel in November 2019. we loved it. Very cool place and very good people work there. Special thanks for all the good things Mint, Noon and Two ❤❤❤

Great hotel conveniently located by the beach. They offer great deals for their guests and the rooms are big enough and sparkling clean when you check-in. Their rooftop is also a good option for a drink with amazing sunsets. They sometimes have live DJ music and pool parties though it is super quiet at night.

Went during low season for super cheap. Really nice hotel for the price, roof top pool is nice and they offer free drinks twice a day and movie with free popcorn at night

The Grand Sunset looks like quiet a new hotel to me. They have a very nice rooftop with bar and swimming pool. The cocktails they serve there are surprisingly delicious and so is the food. They show a movie every night around 8PM and serve free popcorn and ice cream. The service is splendid, the staff is awesome. The rooms are big and clean, but do feel a little bit cheap in the way they are finished...

as a hotel, before it was much better now (2018) has postreply a little, and everything is wonderful

Your three-star pulls. Normal large rooms. Friendly staff. The rooftop pool, there's also a bar and a restaurant. The restaurant, cook very well! Went fishing, brought them their fish. Prepared perfectly , it was delicious! And took only 300 bad head.

Fun kids and family pool, there is lots of food options nearby. We have early checkout, they went the extra miles to provide take out bento for our breakfast

This hotel is excellent, located right next to the beach, and it features two large slides along with smaller ones for younger kids. However, not all pool access rooms have direct access to the water slide area; some require a walk to get there. The cleaning service could use improvement. We woke up around 9:30 AM, and the cleaning staff rang the bell to ask if we were available for our room to be...

The hotel has a very small water park for kids, with limited activities, and it is located a bit far from the beach and the city center.”

Hotel room is spacious, suitable for families. But the pools are designed in a segregated way that each pool are not at all connected to each other. The ONLY WAY to access the pool is through small hallway entrances from the side of the hotel buildings, which makes it annoying and troublesome. Plus the cement on the walkway is super slippery and has got sharp rough edges too, which is actually dangerous...

The room is spacious. Staff are friendly. So many restaurants outside the hotels. It is a good choice for families.

Booked for one night with this hotel, located in Karon. Beautiful beach just directly opposite the hotel. Room is spacious but housekeeping didn’t do their job properly as the toilet bowl was left with stains, this is a little too much for me. Besides that our room is full of the mouldy smell once you entered it. Staff were very helpful with check in and sending us around with buggy. You have to...

the hotel is perfect! no comments!

November '24 stay. Stayed as a couple as a follow on stay after Bangkok. I'll start with the positives, as there are far less than the negatives... Good location in Karon, quiet and only 15 minute max walk from the beach, but far enough to be away from the chaos of the town. Staff extremely friendly, although not many good English speakers, but we got by, no problems. Public area's/ gardens/ pools...

This is a good value for money hotel. If you're on a tight budget, this is the place. It's in a good location. Not far from the beach if you were walking and the hotel does do a twice daily shuttle bus. As you walk out onto the main road there are plenty of shops and restaurants in both directions. What we found here is the food, drink and money exchange was the best we had found on our Thailand trip...

I wish it was not our last day here! 5 night stay at around $120 aud per night through booking.com. Very welcoming and helpful on arrival and so helpful after we had made a mistake on booking dates. First 2 nights we had a cat stuck above our rooms, staff were unable to get it down :( but we were moved. Rooms were beautiful, they are not brand new but this is what I loved. I thought the bed waa...

A great place with clean and comfortable rooms, every room has access to the pool, the hotel is not far away from the beach, the environment is clean and quiet. We got a free upgrade from green to blue wing on arrival, and the staff prepared a birthday surprise and cake for us! Special thanks to the employee Sophie for her kind attitude, hospitality and birthday preparation. Highly recommend this place

The room is great, the pool (canal) access allows a healthy night dipping. The bathroom transparent vitrine is something that we haven't encountered before. Breakfast is rich and satisfying. Special thanks to the amazing staff for helping setting up a wonderful happy birthday gift for my wife.

This hotel is in need of a refurbishment. The location is a 20-minute walk from the beach but offers a twice daily shuttle. The staff are great very helpful and friendly. But all of the good is outwayed by the poorly maintained pools and bathrooms. The hot water in our room was hit and miss, and the air-conditioning struggled with the heat.

me and my friends stayed here for a couple of nights and had such a perfect and genuine experience! the best part was the staff! they were all such kind hearted and amazing people! they made us feel so welcomed! and sun too!!! he talked to us at breakfast and we would run into him throughout the day—he truly wanted us to feel like we were at home and we did! the food was super good and i had an amazing...

We enjoyed our stay at Marina Hotel in Patong. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the front tour desk was excellent for booking excursions. The rooftop pool and bar were a real highlight - beautiful views and a nice place to unwind. That said, the atmosphere leaned more towards families with children. There were quite a few kids shouting and splashing around in the pool, which made it less relaxing...

1. Accommodations were awesome. 2. Local facility manager named Sun kept the place running super smooth, efficient and at a very high level of quality & service. 3. food quality and variety at breakfast very memorable. In addition, they delivered meals to the room or pool-side at no added delivery cost. 4. Spa and massages available at approximately $15 for a one hour time massage. My wife also had...

Although we stayed in this hotel only two nights, it was truly memorable experience and we wish we stayed more. Starting from very nice polite staff, especially the guy I suppose it s manager who greated us personally and bartender Oliver who made sure service and cocktails were exceptional. We truly appreciate that. Hotel is very nice, calm, far from noise and u can enjoy peace and quiet. There is...

Amazing hotel experience. Everything is first class. Brilliant genuine staff and incredibly helpful. Uncle Sun is so welcoming and met us at breakfast to really make every day start with a smile. He really gets people together and we made many new friends. The food is fantastic and great value with Thai and many other cuisine types. We tried many dishes and all were good especially the fish. Breakfast...

We had an amazing visit and we're so we'll looked after. The pool is beautiful and all you need for a relaxing day. Ron served us drinks and is so friendly and kind. We traveled with small children so we ate in our room a few times. The thai food is amazing, some of the best I've had. The managers were so kind and we felt so welcomed, anything we needed was provided and our room was cleaned daily...

This place is everything we wanted it to be, and more. We are loving our stay here. Our Villa is beautiful.

Nice and comfortable place. Staff were very kind and nice.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Village Resort and Spa and our massage experience there. We booked 5 Thai massage sessions each for myself and my husband and had a great time. Highly recommended!

The location and accomodation are nice in general. Though, the smoking is allowed everywhere outside of the room. So, staying in a twin villa, you should expect your neighbour will be smoking next to you when you're chilling at your porch. Same may happen in a swimming pool etc. The air conditioner is old, noisy and hard to adjust. Our toilet was blocked twice and we had to call for service. Quite...

SMALL LUXURY RESORT ONLY ABOUT 30 VILLAS ALL VILLAS ARE SEPARATE AND PRIVATE NICE POOL AND WALK UP THE STAIRS TO THE HILL SPA. MUST DO THE COOKING CLASS. ONLY A 5 MIN WALK THROUGH THE PARK TO KATA BEACH. VILLAS ARE LARGE AND VERY WELL DESIGNED. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO STAY IN KATA BEACH.

For all who want to relax calmly and without crowds, the place is very quiet but not fresh, 10 years, in daylight, looks miserable, the night is beautiful) Breakfast is normal nothing special there, really liked the spacious rooms, pool not very clean, night swim frogs day is full of leaves that fall from trees, the staff is 50/50, English is spoken with great difficulty, over the sea, zigzag will...

Too noicy room was big but old need renovation

I chose this hotel cos it's the most affordable in Karon and it's very convenient to go anywhere. It's the first time staying there. The room is spacious, however it's quite an old hotel. As it's an old hotel, of cos there's stains on pillow cases. Water pressure is not good. Location wise, it's just across the beach, and it's nearby eateries and 7-11s. The hotel has got a small pool and an unusable...

The location is convenient. There is an exchange boot right next to the entrance. The room was alright, you can partially see the ocean. But room needs an update. The price was one of the cheapest considering it located right across the beach. There is a pool on the roof. Service is good.

It could be really better if they fix the lift, its too hard to carry a lot of luggies by stairs if you are traveling with your family. If you take a room with seaview, be ready for 24 hours music sound coming from Outside.

This small hotel is located strategically just across Karon Beach, Phuket in Thailand. I booked it for convenience and great vibes that I don’t need to walk a lot or ride a tuk-tuk just to be in the beach. You just have to be careful crossing the roads in Thailand as it is another skill to have! On another note, this hotel is a bit funny with their floor and room numbering system, so just be aware...

I stayed for two nights in a Superior Double Room, which was spacious and exceptionally clean. The hotel is conveniently located across from the beach, and there are many shops and restaurants in the surrounding area. Overall, a great stay!

Freindly & comfortable staff and atmosphere. Especially, surprise birthday event with cake, I really touched. Thank you for all staff. We stayed Family Sweet room for one night because it is last day. Rooms are consisted for one, it connected with sliding door so it is best option to connect or disconnect with your family or friends. Also, it is easy to get Karon beach(walk 5-10min) and Family Mart...

We had a glowing stay here: Karon beach is a few minutes away from the hotel on foot. A nice lake across the street, lots of good restaurants nearby. Comfortable bed and convenient facilities including the laundry room! And above all, kind staff are there, willing to help you whenever you need. Despite some noise from the street and a small room size, we’d say it’s a great value hotel!

I had an amazing stay here at Glow Mira Hotel. Staff provided exceptional service and Agnes the hotel manger was very pleasant to speak to. The hotel is bright, modern and very inviting. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The bed and pillows were by far the most comfortable I’ve ever slept on. The water pressure in the shower was also incredible. Room AC was very good and quick to cool down the...

Great relaxation combined with fitness!

You live in the jungle, and of course you will have pets (gikons). The nearest shops are 30 minutes walk away, there are a couple of delicious restaurants nearby. The view from the window is crazy. It is steep to go down to the beach along the stairs, and to go up too. But there is a shuttle, ask to take you. You get used to everything, and it was very sad to leave! 😘

The hotel is very old, but the staff tries - the room is cleaned daily, the floors are washed, which is rare for Thailand. Everything is falling apart, there is no cafe, you can even skip the breakfast - I have never seen worse. But all this is compensated by the view from the balcony. All the rooms face the sea. Every day there are magnificent sunsets as a gift. The balconies are spacious, you can...

Beautiful location and scenery, very friendly helpful staff。Highly recommended!

Excellent hotel, everything is clean and beautiful. Lots of greenery, a small swimming pool with a view. You can quickly walk to the sea. Good service and staff.

The hotel is located in an ideal location on Karon Beach

Very nice facility, the service and the room amneties may be off sometimes.But they are quick to respond to complaints.Very spacious rooms.Breakfast gets repetitive after 2 days.Better to book late to get beat prices in off season

pretty good interior and exterior of the hotel good location just walking distance to the beach and great service but could have more variety of food

The time which I spent in Spa was amazing! A specially thankful for Bow, she is very good specialist to help you tp really relax! I recommend her! 👍🏻😊

Great family resort, and excellent access to the Karon beach and all the restaurants and water sports. Nice selection of adult and family and kids pools, waterslide etc. Nice kids club with activities and a weekly foam party. Kids theme rooms are fun, although so much other stuff to do if you won’t spend much time in them.

Incredible place in Karon. The best place for family , honeymooner or even groups of friends. There are 3 pools, with the main pool int the middle. I stay for 2 nights in suite room with a private jacuzzi pool. A huge option of breakfast and of course friendly and fluent english staffs. Totally recommended.

Good rest. Wonderful, helpful staff. Always willing to help if you ask some question. The sea nearby. Great choice of Breakfast to suit every taste. Always a variety of fruits. Just ?.

The place, the country, the people…

Had a wonderful holiday here. Friendly and helpful staff.

Photos look better than the resort, but good sized rooms, lovely breakfast buffet, not far from beach, friendly and helpful staff.

The past 7 days was like a dream. Staff was very humble, nice, helpful. Accommodation was 5 stars breakfast had a wide variety of foods to choose from. Restaurant food was prepared very well. From the time we entered to the time we left we were served. I will definitely book another holiday and advise my family to do the same.

Had the best 8 nights of our stay, staff is super friendly and accommodating. Food is amazing many choices. If you have chosen this hotel you did the best thing ever. I loved it, I will definitely be back soon

The room was clean, but needs its own backup toothbrush, comb, Slippers and so on! Breakfast quality is very General!

Best place to stay in Phuket! Really lovely, friendly and helpful staff and very clean and safe resort. We stayed in Horizon Patong in 2013 and loved it so thought we would stay in Karon this time and are very happy we did. For 5 of our group it was a second stay with them and we were upgraded to the privilege club and with the upgrade we were entitled to free lunch every day. There was always an assortment...
