Independent in Karon from NZ$36

"Amazing! "

"There are certainly things one could quibble with if one wanted to (so-so food, old TV’s, rooms that aren’t that well sound-proofed) but that would be to miss the point. People come here for the service and for the sheer theatricality of the resort, both of which are fabulous. The area around may not be great, but that’s most of Phuket. The resort is terrific and I would go back for the swimming pool alone. "

"Everything was excellent, the location, which is close to shops and restaurants, the service, the atmosphere, activities for children. The only thing that bothered me during my stay at the hotel was the smell in the room, which was moldy. The employees tried to spray odors, but the smell kept coming back."

"Great location, service and amenities"

"Situated in the heart of the Karon hilly areas this beautiful hotel offers all the convenience of walking distance to the shops, restaurants and beaches. Tasty breakfast and nicely decorated rooms and 5 smaller swimming pools with bars in them are very inviting and relaxing for everyone seeking comfort and pleasure. Well equipped gym is also a plus. Staff is really pleasant and friendly willing to help at any time. The only thing is you should be prepared to walk tens of steep steps to your room. Better be fit. Loved it here."

"Great staff. Comfortable room and great food! Pool is wonderful!"

"Excellent 5 star family-friendly hotel with sparkling pools, lazy river and water slides. Friendly staff, spacious rooms, beautiful ocean views. "

"Great hotel. Breakfast was good and better than most places we have been to in phuket. The pool area is quiet during the day, but busier at night. The staff were friendly and helpful. Overall, great value for the price."

"very friendly helpful staff. lovely Place. "
