Central
Karon Village, Karon Beach
This was the second visit to Central Karon Village and certainly won
t be the last. The setting is quite unique and unusual with each room
being an individual villa amonst the trees. As a return visitor the
welcome back was amazing. Above all the staff are particularly friendly
and courteous always willing to do anything for you. The breakfast
buffet has an excellent variety of foods to suit all tastes. Sitting
under the stars in the evening at the Cliff Restaurant is delightful
as is the choice of food. The presentation and taste of the food is
exceptional. |

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The beach by the hotel was
great. Friendly locals and great snorkeling. Would recommend and would
come back again. |

The hotel has a unique position in the middle of a wonderful tropical
garden overviewing the Karon beach. You can enjoy the peaceful atmosphere
and at the same time you are not far from the lively Patong with its
shopping oppotunities. The service was excellent, as well as the cuisine
and the Centara Spa (don t miss it!) |

Central Karon Village, Karon Beach
Hotel was o k. Very hilly, lots of steps to climb to get to breakfast.
It was very hot eating breakfast as there was no sea breeze that high
up. The rooms were nice, very peaceful resort as the bungalows were
scattered around. The bungalows were cleaned every day. The pool was
nice. The service was very good. Good value for money, however a bit
far away from all the activities. |

Central Karon Village, Karon Beach
Very nice hotel with realaxing surroundings, if you are one to love
the outdoors, then this is the place to book. Check in was refreshing
as they offer you cold towels and coconut juice! Rooms are good (better
than most others), however if you are generally not comfortable with
insects, etc. then beware as the bathroom has a section with just
net behind the wood panels and somehow two HUGE cockroaches creeped
in on two separate days and freaked me out! Luckily my husband took
care of it otherwise I was definetley going someplace else. Breakfast
was good with all varieties available. The only thing not appealing
was that around and on the honey and jam jars and the juice dispensers
were so many bees that you could loose your appetite! There is no
beach and even though the hotel says that you can walk to it, and
they give you a map as well, its not easy to find. Anyway we did see
it when we were driving up to the hotel once and it didn t look attractive
so we didn t persue it. The location of the hotel is 10 mins from
Patong beach were all the restaurants and shopping is at. We felt
that it might have been better to stay closer to the beach for conveince
sake but then most of the hotels there were not of good standard.
So we rented a bike for our stay and commuted everyday to the beach.
Overall a good stay with friendly staff. |

Central Karon Village, Karon Beach
Rooms are spacious as are the bathrooms. Staff are very friendly and
the food is good, although a little expensive. This hotel would not
be ideal for everyone though. It is situated on the hill between Patong
and Karon beaches so is not really walking distance to either, and
will involve a taxi ride. The hotel does have many steps so would
definately not suit the elderly or infirm. The two swimming pools
are fine but there is no land to speak of, just the bungalows staggered
down the hillside. For peace and quiet though it would be ideal as
the bungalows are not overlooked. It rained the two days we were there
so we cut the Phuket trip short and headed back to Bangkok ( where
it continued to rain ) I have not visited Phuket since 1994 and would
not go back again. Koh Samui is also developing fast but in my opinion
is a far superior island. |

Our first stop, so we went with a little more expensive resort, and
we LOVED IT. Superb bungalows, great surroundings with trees and flowers
etc. Great customer services with pick ups etc. Excellent breakfast
buffe. Will go back for sure some day. Never mind the hill everyone
is talking about, they have golfcars to pick you up around the clock
and their own taxi service with brand new cars, also SUPERB! Well
done to the owner of this resort. :) |

Central Karon Village, Karon Beach
Well worth a visit. Very nice rooms and a great layout with plenty
of privacy. The staff are all very helpful and the food is very good.
You don t have to worry about the hilly nature of the premises as
you can simply ring for a minicar to pick you up if you don t feel
like walking when moving around the premises. Karon beach is better
than Patong beach and is a 5 minute walk from the hotel, via the swimming
pool. You can catch a taxi into either Patong or Karon from the front
of the hotel. |

Central Karon Village is very beautiful, each Villa is secluded by
lush gardens and a nice sea view. Karon Beach is only 5 Minutes walking
away from the Hotel. The Staff is terrific and the Food is also very
good.If you like it quiet , this is the Place to go . Karon Beach
is beautiful, away from the crowd.I would always go back to Central
Karon Village. |
