Pros:

This was our 2nd stay at Centara Karon Resort. We stayed here last summer as well and loved it sooo much we decided to stay at the same resort again this summer. Love everything about this place:
the staff is so polite, the resort is perfect for kids, the location is very close to the beach and to multiple restaurants. Halal food options within walking distance as well.

Pros:

3 piscines dans l'hôtel, bien entretenus. La chambre est nettoyée tous les jours, et le personnel est très accueillant ! L'hôtel est assez grand donc si votre chambre est loin de la réception, on vous y emmène en buggy, très pratique quand vous rentrez d'une journée d'activités. Le quartier est calme, sympa et l'entrée de l'hôtel est surveillé.

Cons:

Quelques coupures d'électricité de temps en temps mais le courant revient peu de temps après
