Accommodation and facilities:
We booked 3 deluxe rooms with pool view but the hotel upgraded us to deluxe rooms with pool access. We did not use the pool though as it is too deep for our young children. The children s swimming pool at the common pool area is very small so it s not really an ideal place to stay for families with young children who want to enjoy the pool facilities. Another suggestion for improvement is to install clothing hooks on the bathroom door as there is no place to hang our clothes during shower. Breakfast spread is the same everyday. We stayed 3 nights and by the last day of breakfast, I am quite sick of eating the same food again. Also, 3 adults in our group started having diarrhoea after eating the breakfast on the last day. One had it while at the airport about 2 hours after breakfast. The other two had it after we reached home about 5 to 6 hours later. They had not taken other food after that breakfast. Location of the resort is good with the beach just across the road and many shops and eating places in its vicinity. The hotel staff s service is satisfactory.
Reservation service:
I am impressed with the prompt and efficient service of Ms Grace. The hotel rates charged by Sawadee are also better than other websites that I visited. I will definitely visit Sawadee s website again for future travels to Thailand.

Pros: Nice staff, good breakfast, big pool, room was great. We got some ciggarett smoke in our room from the neighbours and the hotel offered us a new room immediately. Close to the beach. Big market directly outside hotel.
Cons: To many rude russians as guests. Had to walk some minutes to get to the central of Karon.

We had a wonderful stay - the staff were very friendly and helpful, room was clean and spacious and the location across from the beach was excellent. Easy walk to lots of eating places. Lots of swimming in the hotel pool - always had spare sunbeds available. Good breakfast - loads of food and good variety (I liked the Asian options and my husband liked the bacon and eggs!) Would definitely return.
Reservation service:
Excellent, hassle-free process. Quick response to all our communications - would definitely use this service again and recommend it to friends.
Thank you!

Terrific, especially when with good friends.
However, the Eastern European guests were rude with very poor manners, which was disappointing considering they are now allowed to travel ouside the eastern blockade. The Thai people agreed with me whole heartedly as the Russians didn t spend any money either.
I have since found out that manners and common decency are not included in there up bringing, Sad.
Reservation service:
Very good thankyou.

What a beautiful resort. The rooms were huge and new. We loved everything about the resort. The food was great. We had the pool access room and getting into the swimming pool from our room was just perfect. We will be back again very soon.

Never had a problem with Sawadee with the booking. Always great.

Accommodation and facilities:
The hotel is decent. But they charge at all corners. Internet fee 75THB for half an hour. Phone call ~30THB for a minute. Yes you didnt read it wrong, it s ~1USD for a minute! While we had a local pre-paid mobile card which charged only 1BTH per min. The phone bill for ~6 mins freaked us out at the check-out but luckily we got some leftover THB money enough to make it. A lot of flies at its open air restaurant which was a great annoyance to us. Staff is friendly though, and the swimming pool is quite nice. Location is good, just to the other side of the road and you already hit the beach. Conclusion anyway: not recommended. If you want to spend the money, try other resorts, either the Hilton one or the Tharvon Palm Beach. If you dont, walk down to the Karon center and you ll find lots of good deals, as low as 500THB for a room with air-con and hot water and all (excluding breakfast).
Reservation service:
Very good. Smooth and hassle-free. Will return if we decide to travel Thailand again.
