We stayed at the hotel April/May 2012 and we just had the best times of our lives!! Reading some of the negative reviews beforehand we weren't a 100% sure on what to expect...however, we were not able to associate with any of these comments upon our arrival. Our rooms were located on the first floor, we went to reception and... More

We read the reviews prior to our holiday and were slightly nervous as some of the comments appeared very negative. HOWEVER, this hotel is right on the beach so the location was fantastic, it was also a short walk to restaurants and bars, but as the rooms were all facing the beach there was no noise from traffic or music....

We stayed here recently and were amazed at how such a resort in such a prime location could be allowed to be run into the ground by lack of maintenance and exceptionally poor customer service. On the day of our arrival the greeting was anything but friendly. The front office staff at this resort are in dire need of some... More

I booked this hotel based on reviews from TripAdvisor and was very disappointed. The rooms are old, small and ugly, and there's no free WiFi. The waitstaff is horrible and don't understand a single thing -- they screwed up our orders twice and made us pay for an order we'd cancelled, despite the fact that they said we wouldn't be... More

Can't beat the location on the beach. The pool area, including restaurant, bar and beach lounging were all great and very well kept. The rooms are pretty old and kind of cave like, but have a balcony with a great ocean view. The reception staff at the hotel and the reservation dept at parent company Kata Group are not good....

Stayed here April 2012 with my wife and friends. The resort is very well kept, and being one of the only resorts directly on the beach at Karon, it was great to have ready access to both pool and ocean. We were in rooms 315/316 and would recommend that any bookings try and get the upper floor . The outlook... More

Just returned from an 8 day stay. Hotel was pleasant enough, and while the rooms aren't 5 star they where roomy enough for my wife and 2 friends staying in the next room to sit together and enjoy some drinks. The 2 pools were clean as was the beach (though the water was too warm). The snorkelling around the nearby... More

Honestly, the location of this property is great. No, the hotel is not brand new, but it has so much character. The rooms are clean, and refreshed every day. The bathroom was a bit dark, but the view from our balcony was beautiful. We were out touring most days or on the beach so to come home to our little... More

What a disappointment this hotel was. It had been recommended to us by friends and although it has a lovely position on the end of the beach, it was tired, small, dark rooms and was full of unfriendly eastern Europeans plus every night the diners were serenaded by a very bad women singer, that was hilarious to listen to up...
