"Unfortunately, I had a very disappointing experience at this hostel. When I arrived, I had to wait nearly an hour before anyone showed up at the reception, which was already not a great start. Prior to my stay, I had sent a message via Hostelworld requesting a quiet room, but this was completely ignored. I was given a room facing the street instead. The noise was unbearable, the hostel is located on an uphill road, so you constantly hear motorcycles and cars accelerating loudly. As a...

Top Karon Hotel Reviews

Katathani Phuket Beach Resort

Katathani Phuket Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent
"Something for everybody! We chose to stay beachside, where you can hear the waves from your room. With two young kids it was then easy to pop across the road to the pools with the slides and wave pool. Dinner buffet was great value, as kids under 7 go free. I’d probably like to see some vegan options. That also applies to breakfast, which had a wonderful fruit selection, but cater a lot for the Chinese customers. Wonderful fresh fruit juices and a great selection of breads to toast though. The staff are friendly and helpful, and great with children. A really great trip."
