No wifi access unless you are willing to join their "club". No restaurant or spa menus in the room (and also not listed on their wesbite), so we only tried one of the restaurants once on the first night we arrived (The dish was well below average). Breakfast was good and the service staff excellent. Beware of the bell service staff as they are untrustworthy, they organised a "taxi" to Patong for us for 500thb. It sounded excessive and I questioned them about it. I was right, we were picked up in a car that was NOT a taxi and we were indeed ripped off as we discovered on the trip back in a different taxi. Overall the stay was not a pleasant one, we were just a number used for profit, never again.

The place to stay at Karon Beach

We came home yesterday after a 6 night stay. We wish we had stayed longer and we were very sad to leave. The hotel is just beautiful. It truly feels like you're in paradise. We didn't get to experience The Chard, which I regret as it looked excellent. The food at Portosino is just delicious and probably the best we've had on a holiday. I am craving the food now!! There are one or two issues with service at the restaurant but managers are very keen to come over to introduce themselves and take on board any feedback. The hospitality generally is just excellent. Yes there are some issues getting a sunbed but there are shaded areas to sit with your feet in the pool. The beach is less than a 5 min walk. The "hill" is an incline and not a problem at all although I can see how it might be an issue for wheelchair users. Would definitely recommend and we would definitely come back to this hotel.

The property could do with an upgrade, the bathrooms seem dated and have a smell, the headboard on our bed had a musky scent as well. The location is excellent and the beach is 2 mins walking distance, it’s a really nice calm beach with clear waters. Also the hotel Lobby and hallways doesn’t have any ac and it’s really hot!!! There’s only one elevator which takes forever to get up to the room and it’s small with no ac. The pool is really nice however and we enjoyed the swim up bar a lot. The area is really lovely and convenient.

Perfekt läge och fin service

Läget är toppen! Nära till restauranger och shopping, gångavstånd till både Karon och Kata beach samt lätt att ta en tuk tuk eller taxi till andra ställen. Personalen med SinDee i spetsen var fantastiska! TACK! Bra frukost men du kan inte sitta utomhus utan inne med kall AC… Poolen för kall för min smak och aldrig några solstolar lediga direkt vid poolen. Folk lade handdukar och paxade dem från tidig morgon. De nedersta våningarna är fuktiga och luktar mögel men högre upp var det mycket bättre och utsikten magisk, såg solnedgången från balkongen varje kväll. Är överlag mycket nöjd!

The food and drink were quite pricey. Almost $12 CDN for a beer, when down the road it’s $6. If the pool and bar pricing was even a bit cheaper then we would have spent much more time there. Beautiful resort though.

Nice and clean hotel. We had a moisture problem in the room and they solved it immediately. Very responsive and quick service. The half board selection is not quite good though. You eat from the same menu every single night which becomes boring after some time. I would prefer some sort of credit so that we can go to different restaurants and eat from different menus. If you can eat outside, I would go for only breakfast included option. Pool is big and clean, Very good spa and massage options. Although it is 2 min walking distance, Hotel does not have beach front access. Great beach though. I would definitely go again to this Hotel.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel with our young family-the pool, room, amenities and staff were amazing. The breakfast every morning was superb. We enjoyed that there were dining options, excursions and beach nearby too. The spa was also fantastic. Our son loved the kids club too. Very detailed and thoughtful service all around. The one downside was no lifeguard at the pool despite lots of children. One father was showing their children how to dive in the shallow water and there was an incident prior to us arriving. The size, layout and numbers should expect a life guard at an international hotel chain like Accor.
