Rested company of 6 people, all with their wives. Initially, everything was fine, a good hotel, good location between two beaches 5 min. walk, many nearby shops, restaurants, as well as exchangers. Cons: narrow sidewalks, wi-fi is dead in the rooms, only at the reception is normal, the slide sometimes tormented after relaxing on the beach, I had to look for the guys who drive in an electric car to leave them a tip later.

Cons: narrow sidewalks, wi-fi is dead in the rooms, only at the reception is normal, the slide sometimes tormented after relaxing on the beach, I had to look for the guys who drive in an electric car to leave them a tip later.
And finally, the departure was at 3:00 to the airport, the luggage was loaded, and then, just before leaving, the man at the reception, I don’t remember his name (he was the only male there), credits us with a bill for spoons and a bag of 435 baht! On the first day, my wife had a birthday party, they brought a small cake, my wife and I tried this compliment with these spoons and the next day they were immediately taken away, the bag was in the nightstand, they didn’t use it practically, I put my new shoes there, it wasn’t written anywhere that, b. t, it will then be necessary to leave $ 10 for it. It would be better to leave a tip if you wish for a good rest, we would have done so, but why spoil the guests' mood like this before leaving?
Because of some spoons that I wouldn’t even take for free. The hotel management should pay attention to such trifles, I personally and my family only because of this incident before leaving, I will not come to this hotel again, they spoiled the mood out of the blue just before the flight, it was not about money, but only the principle went with me that they want to grab extra money out of the blue, taking advantage of the moment that they already have to leave and the car is waiting for the airport. They also began to ask a friend and his wife for beach towels, which he left every day downstairs near the bar, which should not be brought into the room with sand. People pay you decent money during the season, why be so petty I can’t understand, in Turkey they don’t even check the number before leaving !! !

I really wanted to go to warmer climes for NG and Christmas. This is our family tradition. In Thailand, we were in Pattaya, but a very long time ago, we decided to repeat it. We bought tickets from Mau 1.5 months before the vacation, took a tour with excursions in Phuket and 3 days in Bangkok. The hotel was chosen first on Bang Tao Beach, they wanted a quiet and beautiful place, on the first line.

I really wanted to go to warmer climes for NG and Christmas. This is our family tradition. In Thailand, we were in Pattaya, but a very long time ago, we decided to repeat it.
We bought tickets from Mau 1.5 months before the vacation, took a tour with excursions in Phuket and 3 days in Bangkok.
The hotel was chosen first on Bang Tao Beach, they wanted a quiet and beautiful place, on the first line. Not confirmed, there are no places for the holidays.
So we chose Karon Beach and of course the hotel, so that civilization was clean and the sea was nearby.
We arrived at the hotel in the midst of NG dinner. They settled quickly, they didn’t take a deposit, in Tae this is a rarity.
Superior room overlooking the pool, more than enough space for three, has everything you need, clean and comfortable. You can't hear your neighbors so the soundproofing is good. In the morning, fabulous birdsong, in the afternoon, light, not intrusive music from the pool bar. Vacationers 50x50 Russian-foreigners. There are always free sun loungers to soak up the sun and tables in the restaurant.
Everything is green, neat and clean. But not very comfortable paths, intricate labyrinths with dead ends. In order to get closer to the restaurant, you need to wag between the houses, or go around.
Breakfasts on cards, at the entrance mark the number of days.
The food is top notch, good choice, everything is delicious, everything is fresh, everything is clean, lots of fruit.
There is a Spa, but we did a massage on the beach (I advise). There is a gym (not big) Wi-Fi is dead in the room, the reception is livelier.
A guy in uniform with a whistle, a flag and a baton helps to cross the busy road from the hotel.
From the hotel to the right, walk 10 minutes to Karon beach, to the left to Kata. But to get there is a whole extreme. There are practically no sidewalks, the traffic is very busy. The only good news is that there is everything that the soul of a tourist needs, even the most fastidious, if only there was money))))
Cafes, restaurants, exchange offices, massage parlors, travel agencies, pharmacies, souvenir and grocery stores, fruit shops at every step and for every taste along the road. In a cafe, the price of lunch for three is 30-40 dollars with juice and beer, dinner is a little more expensive. Massage from 300-500 baht, depending on which one you choose.
Beaches: Karon is clean and decent. Sun loungers and umbrellas 200 baht. There is no toilet and most importantly (for me) there is no shower to rinse and wash off the sand from the feet (
There is a stinky sewer river on Katya, heaps of garbage, dirty on the beach and in the sea from boats.
Patong - half an hour drive from Karon, only seen from the minibus window, a huge beach, but very crowded!
Excursions took an overview of Phuket, the show "Fantasy", the islands of Phi Phi and Bambo for 1 day, and Khao Lak for 1 day. Interesting, bright, with a sea of emotions and impressions. I liked everything) Then Bangkok, but that's in another story.
Holidays in Phuket reminded me a little of Crimea in 1995, but there are some highlights.
For the first time, during our travels, we did not live by the sea. And they only regretted that the vacation flew by very quickly, 2 weeks was not enough.
The hotel is worth the price and quality. After the bustle and excursions, tired, we came to the hotel, like home, in silence, cleanliness and comfort.
Thailand is a wonderful, colorful country of contrasts!
Happy holidays everyone!

Rested with a guy from 2.06-14.06 it didn't rain for only 5 days. But despite this, the hotel pleased, very friendly staff, everything is clean, neat. Pleased with the atmosphere in the hotel. During this period, very high humidity and of course it's a little annoying. The food was breakfast - normal. The hotel has a very cool location between KATA and KARON.

During this period, very high humidity and of course it's a little annoying. The food was breakfast - normal. The hotel has a very cool location between KATA and KARON. Karon beach is cleaner and liked more. If you choose between Patong, definitely KARON, KATA is better. I want to warn you not to deal with street tour agencies, especially with Russian names such as "Treasure Island". I want to warn you, I will tell you my terrible journey with this terrible company "TREASURE ISLAND". People DO NOT CONTACT this company, they are ready to earn money no matter what, risking human lives. We were in Thailand in June 2012. We bought a 2 day tour of the islands (James Bond, Pipi, etc. ). before that, they checked with them how the weather was, they sent us on a small yacht to the sea, although there was a ban on going to sea and they transmitted a storm warning on 6.06-7.06, as we later found out. We left the port, the weather was already bad, it was raining, but we were assured that it would pass in an hour, everything would be different, the weather on the islands is different. The first day, we looked at James Bond Island, since it is located in a more closed place and there are almost no waves, when there was a transition we were shocked a little 40 minutes, they said it was 3-4 points, but we endured everything with dignity, getting wet from the rains and soaking everything things. Arriving at Phi Phi, we were looked at as if we were crazy, as everyone knew about the situation. The next day, in order not to leave us on the island, they gathered us like sheep and put us on a boat, risking our lives in the name of some money. We got into: 6 storm (waves 6 meters) on a small boat that didn't even have a roof. So we sailed for 3 hours, the children prayed and were baptized, then many became ill, and learned what seasickness is. This fear is beyond words. SAVE your lives and avoid travel agencies like Treasure Island. other agencies at least asked for forgiveness and returned the money, which the manager Denis told me when I told him where they sent us, he said I'm not a psychotherapist. So be careful when choosing with whom to go on excursions.
