Top Karon Hotel Reviews

Mandarava Resort and Spa Karon Beach

10/10 Excellent

"For the price you will not find anything better in Phuket. The staff are so helpful and the most kind people I have ever met. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left we were treated superbly. The pool facilities are fantastic and the breakfast is the best I’ve had in any hotel. Will certainly be back"

The Shore at Katathani

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing resort"

Novotel Phuket Kata Avista Resort And Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Overall Great Hospitality, But Operational & Dining Shortfalls Need Attention We appreciated the team's hospitality during our stay. The staff were polite, professional, and always greeted us with a smile. The pre-arrival check for special occasions was a thoughtful touch, and the room's birthday decoration with a complimentary cake was lovely. The breakfast buffet was fantastic, with excellent variety served late into the morning. However, several areas need management's attention: Allergen Diligence: Despite providing dietary restrictions pre-arrival, we had to remind staff of our allergies with every order. This should be logged against the room number for seamless care. Half-Board Dining: Food quality was high, but the à la carte menu was too limited for a half-board stay. We ran out of options and expected a buffet or 3-course meal instead of 2 courses. Facilities & Excursions: Restricting playroom access to 1 hour daily was overly rigid. Hotel excursion prices were also heavily marked up compared to local high-street rates. Major Issue: We experienced a 4-to-5-hour blackout during peak evening hours. While management cited a public grid failure, a reputable chain like Novotel should have proper backup generators to prevent such severe disruptions. We hope this feedback helps refine the guest experience."
