Karon Market

Went near the end of low season for a week and had a very good experience. Room was clean, spacious, and comfortable, albeit dated. Staff were very friendly, food was very good (breakfast buffet a great value). Pool was great for lounging around and atmosphere was quiet (no kids or partiers). The gym was disappointing - cardio machines broken or not working well, just a few dumbbells and a bench, no towels or way to wipe the bench or mat. I was glad to not have a pool side room as people could swim almost right up to your sliding door and it wouldn’t feel private at all. Personal preference though. The location is close to the beach but still a bit of a walk (~8 minutes) to get around the massive Club Med across the street.

Great place to stay
