If you want to be alone on a beach in June, then this is your place. If you like to people watch, or have a beach bar around to get food or drinks during the day, then don't go here. The town had very little in the way of entertainment. A handful of bars and resturants packed primarily on one... more

We stayed in the Hilton Karon (see other review for full details). We stayed in the rainy season (August) so the sea was not swimmable but our pools were fine for this. I think Kata beach (15 min walk) is swimmable and has more watersports). However, there is a lovely long sandy beach which was quite quiet and good to... more

I have travelled to Phuket 8 times, my most recent stay with my husband was Oct 2005. We stayed at the Andaman Seaview this time and once again was a very very nice resort. Karon Beach is swimmable, it is only not swimmiable at certain times of the year. This is the same with most beaches in Phuket. Karon is... more

Karon beach is quieter than Patong beach but not worth visiting. There are plenty of restaurants that cater to foreigners but the ocean there is not swimmable and the beach was relatively empty when I visited. An ok place to stay as it's quiet and you can take one of the many tours to visit the surrounding islands and go... more

Since the area's economy is primarily tourist driven the prices are much higher than in Bangkok. Tailored and... more

Karon's over-development must have been quite sudden, because even the most up-to-date guide books didn't prepare us for the tacky main street whose neon-lit bars are full of ageing Western men draped over young Thai girls. That said, the beach is lovely and wasn't too crowded when we went (early December), and there are some lovely restaurants to be found... more

Situata a ovest dell'isola ed esattamente a sud di Patong beach, è la seconda spiaggia più grande di Phuket. Anche... more

雨季は波が高く泳げないのが残念です。 パトンビーチとは違い店もほとんどなくとても静かで落ち着けます。 海岸は鳴き砂で... more
