Baan Karonburi Resort

Sharyn stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-06-30 and said, "We have stayed at the Baan Karonburi hotel on Karon beach 2 years in a row and love it! It is a small hotel, 48 rooms I think, the ocean view rooms are a good size and confortable, the staff are incredible, the pool is a good size however the pool bar could do with a make-over. Breakfast is very good and the restaurant overlooking the beach at ground level. Highly recommend this hotel but do book oceanview rooms."

WU stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-06-19 and said, "Good location,quiet but easy to reach the beach.Room was clean and neat.Staff were very friedly and preffesional.The Karon Beach maybe the Graetest beach at Phuket and Baan Karonburi Resort Maybe the one of the most valuable hotel.Definitely recommend!"

Ellinor stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-05-11 and said, "Good location,big rooms,HOT water:),nice beds,great breakfast,great staff.Expensive drinks at the poolbar.Good service:)"

Rosie, stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-04-04 and said, "great location; friendly staff; breakfast okay but could use fresh bakery breads to class it up. Ocean view best in rooms 401,2 ,3 , 4/ 401-2 are connecting rooms.Out the door, cross a little street and on the beach. close to shopping market, three convenience stores very near. If arriving early am stop at 7/11 on way in for beverage and snacks before bed. Mini bar is pricey.Red Onion is a must eat place. Little Mermaid wide variety of cuisine but wait staff still as grumpy as ever; however, a glass of wine comes with mains and wide choice of international beers. One can forgive the surly waitresses after a coupla.Stay in garden view to save during high season. Pool under construction during week of April 12-19. Late sleepers may be disturbed by construction of new building behind the hotel, near the pool. There is actually only one pool not two. The kids pool is right with the other, but nice swim up bar. In room massages available."

Michael stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-04-03 and said, "Ok hotel with nice staff. We stayed in a seaview deluxe. The hotelroom was a bit old and not worth the price we payed, 3300 baht. Very central and close to everything in Karon. Some disturbance from building workers near the hotel."

Rebecca stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-03-21 and said, "This is a nice hotel with a good location. Beach right across street you can see it from the restaurant. The first night they overbooked so we had a room next door at the princess. Their rooms were a little newer, but we were in the last room in the 2nd bldg with a view of the construction going on behind the woraburi on the other side of Baan Karonburi. They made up for it though with a room upgrade and dinner. They also decorated with roses since we were on our honeymoon. Breakfast was good with a nice selection of Thai & western food (we like Thai!!) Within walking distance to Karon Circle and a small chain of restaurants in front of the Old Phuket if you head the other direction. Ging s is a great place to eat. Last thing, I recommend renting a scooter. The taxi/tuk tuk s are a rip off."

Andrew stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-03-03 and said, "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Baan Karonburi Hotel. The rooms are very spacious and well equipped, although the furniture is a little tired. The only other issue is lack of space at the hotel s pool (which in itself is very nice with a beautiful waterfall and greenery). We did however consider this a minor issue as literally across the road from the hotel is one of the cleanest and most beautiful baches we found in Thailand (Karon Beach). There are loungers and parasols available at the beach, however there is a 100 Baht charge per person to use these. Staff at the hotel are very helpful and friendly although we found that few of them spoke good English (not sure about other languages). Not far from the hotel are many shops and restaurants. We would recommend the Red Onion restaurant, which serves great food but gets very busy from circa 7pm onwards and you might struggle to get a table. Ovarall we really liked this hotel and would definately come back to stay here again."

Michael stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-02-17 and said, "Can only reccomend this resort. The staff are in general very hospital and friendly towards you, and they will do whatever is needed to make your stay comfortable. Rooms are nice and are cleaned properly each day. The location of the resort is perfect if you want to relax, and it s quite easy to go to either Patong or Kata by bus or taxi.We tried a lot of different beaches during our stay, but nothing can be compared to the beach at Karon - You need to try it to understand what makes it so peferct."

Claus stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-02-02 and said, "nice hotel, good service, nice staff and a great locatin just 1 minute walk to the beach. Stey there last year too.Great place tank you for a fine holyday."

Ida stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-02-01 and said, "A very nice hotel. The staff is friendly, the rooms are spacious and clean. Good restaurant that serves great breakfast. The pool-area is beautiful. Only a short walk to the mainstreet. The beach is fine. We really enjoyed our stay."

Robert stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-01-31 and said, "Great location-loved looking out over the Andaman Sea whilst having breakfast. Room was comfortable and the whole area is generally quiet. If you want bars and restaurants in numbers, a 10 minute walk left or right will find you plenty. This was our second visit to Karon-first time at Baan Karonburi and we ll definitely be back. Staff are all friendly and helpful."

michael stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-01-29 and said, "The hotel is close to everything. The Beach and the shopping street. It was a very nice hotel, and we will come back again. The food is good. The room is big an good. The swimmingpool is good for familys with children."

Henriette stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-01-22 and said, "We enjoyed our stay very much. Very sweet and helpful staff. The room was big, nice and clean.Ok internet service, but maybe a bit expensive.All in all good value for the money. There is nothing bad to say about this resort. We could definetely recommend it at any time."

John stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-01-21 and said, "Very nice hotel in the middle of Karon Beach. We booked here for one night only because our first choice was booked for that night. If doing it again we would stay here for the duration of our time in Karon Beach. Staff very helpful, most could speak and understand English. The beach is O.K. for swimming but no good snorkeling. The pool was beautiful."

Peter stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-01-09 and said, "Very nice and clean hotel. Nice pool. Location fantastic. Staff excellent. Can absolutely stay there on my next visit to Phuket!"

Renee stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-01-07 and said, "Nice accomodation right in the center of Karon Beach area. Directly across from the Beach and right near the markets. A short walk to restaurants and shops. Staff were very helpful and all arrangements they helped with were on schedule. Internet wasn t working while we were there, and elevator service was intermittent, but otherwise no problems. Rooms were nice -- though bed was very hard!"

Nick stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2008-01-03 and said, "Superb! Hotel and staff contributed to a fantastic holiday, karon beach is a great resort and we would certainly return to this hotel. WEll worth every penny."

Anton stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2007-12-26 and said, "Hotel was clean & tidy with excellent breakfast and friendly service. Room good size with good finishings - Only downside is that the room has a musty smell to it (we seemed to find this smell throughout Thailand though). Good location - accross the road from beach. Karon Beach not as busy as Patong Beach - which is only 15minutes away by scooter. Recommend the hire of scooter on arrival at Appr. Baht250 per 24hr as we found this to be the best and cheapest means of travel between Patong & Karon Beach."

Kerry stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2007-12-22 and said, "What a lovely hotel, great location, lovely staff and comfortable rooms. This was my third visit to Thailand with my partner, we had spent a couple of days in Phuket previously and had enjoyed the area, so we decided to return for 10 nights and then a further 9 nights in Samui with my parents. My biggest regret is not spending the whole 19 nights in Phuket at the Baan Karonburi Resort we all enjoyed it that much. The xmas eve and new years eve gala s were great, the food was excellant, something for everyone. I will return and wouldn t stay anywhere else."

wonderwoman stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2007-09-08 and said, "the hotel was great... only the swimming pool was still in renovation an we had to take a dip in the pool next door.. too bad .. i was hoping to swim in the hotel s pool... the room was large and clean.. got the deluxe room with the ocean view..the beach is just in front of hotel, so it s a few steps away .. staff were friendly and smiling always.. the breakfast was standard as any other hotel... for me it was fine... no comment.. would return again here.."

Colin stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2007-08-18 and said, "Overall, this was a good hotel for the price we paid. Rooms were clean, large and well kept, although the towels were sometimes quite old and worn and our king size bed was actually two small beds pushed together - very uncomfortable! The location of the hotel is excellent, almost exactly in the center of Karon beach and easy walking distance to everywhere in Karon. Staff were friendly and attentive to problems. Some of the grounds were not well maintained, however, particularly the pool area. There were a lot of tiles falling off of the pool and some of the lounge chairs were breaking. Breakfast was disappointing. The buffet changed very little, almost exactly the same everyday, so more variety would have been nice. Most of the food was cold by 9:00. Bread and fruit were rarely fresh, we bought much better fruit from the street vendors and supermarkets. Overall, there are certainly some things that could be improved upon by the hotel, but the value for money is unmistakable and I would certainly consider staying there again."

Kaight stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2007-08-03 and said, "Great hotel, quiet area, away from seedy side of Phuket. Breakfast is good, Rooms are big, clean and quiet. Staff are friendly and helpful. Beach is close and beautiful. Hotel is well situated with Kata and Patong a short drive or scooter. Great hotel."

trudi stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2007-07-20 and said, "Great position with beautiful views over the beach. Many restaurants within a couple of minutes walk. Favourite one is ging , beautiful food and lovely friendly staff. Turn left from front of hotel, turn down street to old Phuket Hotel it is on the left hand side. Approx 5 min walk. Highly recommended. Hotel rooms are spacious, we had a deluxe seaview room on top floor. Very clean and well maintained. Staff very friendly, breakfast great. Would definately stay there again. Great value for money."

Tatiana stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2007-07-07 and said, "Hotel is very good located on quiet and very beautiful Karon beach. It is advisable to get the room on the 3d,4st floor (room number starting from 1 to 6 or 7) because of the nice view on Andaman sea. The 4st floor is better as the near standing hotel Karon Princes has built the second floor to its restaurant with the roof limiting partly the view. Room is ok, furniture is old a little but it is not critical at all. Breakfast is tasty with good choice of dishes including meat. Staff is friendly with fantastic attention to children. Pool with waterfall is also nice."

Sharyn stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2007-06-27 and said, "Nice big well presented rooms with ocean view which will be slightly obstructed soon due to an extension being built next door, small issue though. Buffet breakfast pretty good, best thing is location of restaurant, looking right at beach and very clean, no flies etc. Staff are amazing, so friendly ands keen to help. Pool area very lovely though pool bottom losing a few tiles! Would definitely go back there. Can t wait in fact!"

Chua stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2007-06-24 and said, "Small boutique hotel with excellent rooms and excellent room cleaning service."

S. stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2007-03-29 and said, "The rooms are large and our view was very good (room 303-which I checked out the room locations when I booked with Sawadee). The breakfast was good and the people at the front desk and the ladies who cleaned the room very friendly. The only complaint I would have is the king size bed was very very hard, and we couldn t get any extra bath towels (they give you 1 bath and 1 hand towel each) The towels our first week were literally rags -other guests were complaining about them. Then finally they replaced with new larger thicker ones. Other than that It was a great central location on Karon Beach with a good beach view from our balcony, good quiet airconditioner, in room safe, and very clean! Our pool was great compared some other hotels, and we had no problem with getting loungers as it is not as busy this time of year. Had alot of thunder, lightning and some heavy rain at night, but we would go back to Thailand and stay at the Baan Karonburi again! Loved the beaches!"

Thor stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2007-03-11 and said, "This place is just great. Spent 5 days alone in one of the top flor rooms which had a greit veiw over the sea.Cleaning of the roooms was exellent. The staf were very friendly, the service was splended, breakfast was very nice and the pool was nice and quite.Only 60 meters to the beach were you can lay all day or go for long walks (nice bars in each end of the beach were you can refresh yourselfwith a cold beer). I can recomend this place to everyone."

Shimon stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2007-03-08 and said, "an excellent Hotel, while I came the reception manager asked me if I can help them by staying in other hotel, since they made a mistake booking the same room twice, compensating me with a dinner. since I refused I got the room and I m glad I made this decision."

David stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2007-03-06 and said, "Selecting this hotel was a last minute switch the day prior to leaving for Thailand. Our other hotel was just not going to work out. We are so glad our plans worked out the way they did. Baan Karonburi Resort was a great place to end our vacation in Thailand. The hotel s location is perfect - across the street from a wonderful ocean beach and within easy walking distance to many delicious restaurants. Check-in was a surprise. We were guided to the open air seating area, provided cold drinks and our paperwork was brought to us. Our room was excellent. Lots of storage space and a huge bathroom. The bed a too firm for our taste, but that is a personal preference. We enjoyed a nice ocean view from our balcony. We actually spent more time at the pool than we did at the beach. It is a little oasis behind the hotel with the mountains in the background. The swim-up bar and jacuzzi seats were well used. The staff was so pleasant and always available to help. The included breakfast buffet was in the open air restaurant facing the ocean. It was a nice mix of Thai and non-Thai food including an omelet station. The hotel does offer fee-based internet access, but we found cheaper locations in the downtown area. We would definitely return if we are ever lucky enough to get back to Thailand."

Oydis stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2007-03-02 and said, "We had a wonderful vacation on Baan Karonburi Resort. The service was good, the staff was kind and friendly and everything else was perfect. If we are going back to Thailand we will stay at this hotel. Thank you to the staff."

Angie stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2006-12-21 and said, "The hotel is in a very good location, close to beach,a good market and bars etc. Lots of nice places to eat close by. Our room was lovely, very big and very clean.It was on the top floor and had great views of the beach. The pool area was nice, but needed more chairs. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. I would stay at this hotel again, and would certainly recomend it as great value for money."

Oliver stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2006-12-14 and said, "Could not have asked for nicer people. No worry about our 2 year old running around since the hotel staff was very playful with him. Would stay there again... good location also; just far enough away from the main beach and right on the water."

Jon stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2006-12-13 and said, "My family spent 4 wonderful days at the Hotel. The staff were helpful and the room is spacious and clean, although the pillow is a little too soft. We had a room with sea view and it is worth it."

Eva stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2006-12-09 and said, "We stayed in a deluxe room with seaview. We did not like the Karon Beach area mainly because of the heavy traffic road between the hotels and the beach, and the fact that there were nothing on the beach except sun chairs and umbrellas (this seems to be common in most Phuket beaches). Baan Karonburi was quite OK even though they tried to rip us off when we requested to extend the stay with one more day (they tried to charge us almost twice the web rate) but after we said we would think about it, they reversed and accepted the same rate. Due to double booking, our reserved deluxe room was not available on the first day when we arrived and they offered us a superior room and compensated with meal coupons. We were too tired to make a fuss but in retrospect we should probably have insisted on a price reduction instead as we nevre used the coupons. Apart from that, we were satisfied with the room (nice seaview) and with the hotel facilities. Breakfast was mediocre."

Mikhail stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2006-11-25 and said, "Very good, have a small problems in internet cafe but quickly solved. Nice beach but klong near - a little dirty after rain"

Wei stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2006-11-16 and said, "Though the hotel is small, but the location is great, facing karon beach, behind the resort, you can see the nice hill from the hotel room. The hotel room are very clean & the bath room is big ;D Furthermore, the hotel food is very good too, we even had 1 of our dinners in the hotel s restaurant. The hotel staff are friendly & helpful, just that you have to catch what they say sometimes. ;p In overall, We love the hotel & We re happy with our stay. :)"

Fredrik stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2006-11-14 and said, "Nice hotel whith very nice staff. Food in restaurant is very good. Big rooms an fine view from the balcony. Close to the beach wich is good. Thanks for a very lovely stay!"

Azrani stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2006-04-22 and said, "The hotel was excellent. We did a lot of research on Sawadee.com (especially on the travel review pages) before deciding on this hotel. The reviews were right. The hotel is on what I would think is the best developing stretch of beach in Phuket - close to Patong but not too close! The rooms were very good (we had a nice seaview deluxe room), but what struck us most was the excellent service. My 1-year old daughter enjoyed her stay there, and the staff were so nice to her (they even remembered her name). We felt so at home, and it was quite sad that we couldn t stay longer. Or course, that would be a good reason to come back...and back to the same hotel! Thanks to all at Baan Karonburi."

Christine stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2006-04-12 and said, "Very disappointing, not up to the standard expected for the price. We were put in a superior garden view room when we had booked a de-luxe sea view and told by the manager that the view is the only thing that is different in the rooms. She consequently moved us to another room which had a sea view but it also had a terrible smell of dampness. We were then told it was the only room available and we had no choice but to take it, she then sent the maid to spray with air freshner but as soon as the spray dispersed then the smell came back. The following day we were moved up to the fourth floor with a sea view. The bathroom flooded everytime we used the shower and the hotel seemed a really sad place - even the staff seemed sad. Not a place I would recommend at all. Karon Beach itself is a lovely place."

Charlotte stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2006-02-08 and said, "It is a very nice hotel, the rooms is clean, good size. And it is located next to the great beach, and near everything. Transport, by local bus, is right outside, and there is taxi s and tuk yuk rigth next door. The service in the bar/resturant is not the best - but okay. All i all a great place to stay."

Robert stayed at Baan Karonburi Resort on 2005-12-30 and said, "Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. That s how I d describe the Baan Karonburi. The room, the breakfast, the people, the location. I d stay there again in a minute. The owner is more than willing to help out making calls, arranging tours, taking care of his guests. What a great place!!!"
