Top Karon Hotel Reviews

Grand Kata VIP - Kata Beach

10/10 Excellent

"The room was cleaned, towels and sheets replaced daily. Staff were friendly and helpful. Good breakfast"

Chanalai Garden Resort, Kata Beach

8/10 Good

"We had a fantastic stay over a 10 day period, October 2026: Pros: Great pools and bars, breakfast amazing, location close to beach and 7 Eleven, rooms clean with interconnecting option, room service was quick, no undisclosed fees or nasty surprises when checking out, easy to get to Patong via a Grab. Cons: Noisy if you have a room near a pool bar, house keeping arrived very late most days (approx. 4pm), although it can' be helped there was a lot of maintenance work going on which meant noise and access issues, get constantly hassled by hotel workers at driveway to use their taxi's. Would I return.. Definitely"

Secret Cliff Resort Phuket

8/10 Good

"I enjoyed my stay at Secret Cliff Resort overall. The staff was awesome—very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The property was beautiful, clean, and well maintained. There were a couple of issues, though. The swimming pool closed at 7:00 PM, which I thought was too early. We also had a problem with the TV. The staff came to the room four different times trying to fix it and eventually replaced the TV, but unfortunately it still didn’t work. I do appreciate how hard the staff tried to resolve the problem. Despite these issues, the excellent staff and well-maintained property made the stay enjoyable."
