"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We stayed at Centara Karon Resort for 6 nights as part of our honeymoon and had a wonderful experience. Our room was very clean, the bed was incredibly comfortable and the bathroom was a great size. Housekeeping was fantastic throughout our stay. The resort grounds were beautiful and always extremely well maintained, and we really enjoyed the pool. The location is excellent, right in a great part of Karon and close to everything you need. Breakfast had a large range of options, and all the staff were consistently friendly and helpful. We especially appreciated the lovely honeymoon touches. Our room was decorated with towel swans and a Happy Honeymoon sign, and they even made us a honeymoon cake. It made our stay feel extra special. Our only small suggestions would be to have two chairs on the balcony instead of one so couples can sit outside together. Our room was also quite a long walk from the front of the hotel. Overall, great value for money and a beautiful resort. We would definitely stay again and happily recommend it! 🌴🤍"

"The hotel is conveniently located near Karon Beach and there are quite a few food options within walking distance. It is also closed to the bus route, with one bus going to the airport (it takes about two hours). The breakfast buffet is great, with a broad range of food choices, savory and sweet. The swimming pool in our block was great (it opens at 7am and closes at 8pm). It was a shame the gym was under refurbishment and not available. We experienced a few issues during our stay, but they were all taken care of quickly by the friendly staff. I would not recommend the spa ans massage services at this hotel. They overcharged us twice relative to the prices they first gave us, and they did a terrible job on my husband’s pedicure."
