We have just returned from our holiday to Thailand and the Centara Karon ticked all our boxes for a fun yet relaxing holiday.

The rooms are clean and kind of modern, but the ground floor which we had are all around 10-15 metres from the main family pool with the... More

Staff very pleasant and helpful. Food in the hotel was average, unfortunately although there were several restaurants in the hotel grounds they all had a similar menu.... More

I always advise guests the best way to address any disappointment during your holiday is to raise any negative issues before hotel checkout. The Manager on Duty is empowered to rectify any issues.
