Rod W. Groups Australia, May 14, 2013	Great place for families ,Heaps to do for kids Location ,Food and facilities 8.3
Kim K. Families with young children Australia, April 03, 2013	Centara KaronResort is a great family resort Staff, location and quick reponse to queries 7.3 The Centara Karon beach resort was lovely. It was a relaxing stay and excellent for young children in particular. We stayed with a one year old and after being located on the second floor we requested a ground floor room for convenience. This request was granted and our stay was made even more enjoyable as a result. This meant that we did not have to trapse up and down stairs with a pram, but also eabling us to have a quick dip in the pool while we kept an eye on our baby sleeping in the room.
Susan H. Families with young children United Kingdom, April 03, 2013	Ok hotel with poor staff training The jacuzzi pool, bar-b-que in the cabana 5.3 Our problems with the hotel begin when our aircon didn't work properly. The problem was handled very poorly and although we were offered compensation this was also handled poorly and we are still waiting to rectify this. There was a terrible problem with mosquitoes so you need to apply a lot of repellent at all times of the day. The cabana jacuzzi wasn't quite as the picture looked but was nice and you have the option for a bar-b-que in your courtyard which we did. The food was fabulous (cooked by a chef- rather than us) and the staff were lovely. Make sure you book a transfer to the airport well in advance as if they run out of vehicles you have to go and find your own transport off the street (some walk from the hotel). It takes around one hour to get to the airport.
Bryan S. Couples United States of America, March 23, 2013	Perfect escape from the craziness of phuket Great swim up pool bar, tropical surroundings, quick 10 minute taxi to Bangla rd 6.7 We spent two fabulous nights at this hotel. There is plenty of shops and restaurants right outside the resort and karon beach is about a 5 minute walk. The only thing is the hotel could use some updating but otherwise we fully enjoyed our stay.
James C. Solo travelers United Kingdom, March 17, 2013	Scores fairly highly in all areas except value cheap long term internet package, friendly housekeeping, not too expensive room service menu 7.3 a pleasant stay although the beds were a little uncomfortable and sometimes the internet would cut out. in general the room was nice and clean with a good view.
Aimee S. Couples United States of America, January 24, 2013	Good location but needs renovations Centrally located in quiet area but 2-min walk to shops and entertainment 7 Centara Karon is in a great location a short walk away from the beach, shopping and restaurants. Pros: Good location, within a short walk from other activities. Good selection at the buffet breakfast. Great for families. Cons: Older buildings, in need of a facelift. Cracks in walls and bathroom sinks. A bit overpriced for the quality of the place.
Johan V. Couples South Africa, January 10, 2013	Lovely hotel and service with a smile Everything really, location, service, facilities, breakfast 10 Our first visit in Phuket, as well as a Centara resort. Was our best holiday so far. We all ready planning our next trip, hopefully the end of this year again. Will most likely stay at the Centara Karon again .We will most definitely recommend Centara to everyone we speak to about our holiday. Thank you Centara Karon! Shopping Tip: Dont bring any clothes with, buy it all in Phuket from the stores. Great to barter with the vendors. Go home with a new wardrobe.
Oscar M. Couples Colombia, December 25, 2012	A nice hotel in Karon Beach Location, service 9.3 The staff of the hotel was really friendly, and the location was ok. It is away from the noisy Patong, and close to Karon beach. The room was clean, and good. It has 3 pools, and big facilities. It was a nice hotel all in all
Zahri M. Families with young children Singapore, December 24, 2012	Wonderful service with extra perks! walking distance to beach, quick access to eating places, great for family with young children 8.3 We had a great stay at Centara Karon. The service staff are friendly and prompt. The cabana was money well spent. The room comes with 2 queen beds and our very own outdoor jacuzzi. We have complimentary evening drinks throughout our stay as guests at the cabana. Our two children enjoyed the 3 pools and activities at the kids' club. With their babysitting service, we get to spend quality time alone without the kids as well. Overall, Centara Karon had made our maiden visit to Phuket a memorable experience. We will definitely return for our next visit.
Jana M. Solo travelers United States of America, November 14, 2012	Outstanding service, good location The view, the service 10 The hotel and staff were outstanding. The rooms clean and the view from my 8th floor room was beautiful. Good room service and food. Sightseeing/Attractions Tip: The Karon area is very relaxed and casual. Don't take a lot of clothes, particularly dressy things. Beach wear and very casual and cool attire are acceptable almost everywhere.
