Leonard Howard DeMoss 2008-09-20	Baan Karonburi Resort, Karon Beach I was not impressed with the place at all. To begin, I paid 2000 baht for the fishing trip and had been told it was fishing all day. We ended up only fishing for maybe 1 hr and without any pole, just a spool of line in the water. Plus, everyone else paid 1200 baht for the trip, so I felt ripped off by the hotel travel people whom I told. The rooms were very old, rather grungy and dirty. TV only had 1 movie channel, BBC, no CNN or other financial channels. Internet was slow and expensive (80 baht for 1/2 hr). Taxi service from the hotel was outrageous as it only cost me 180 baht from the airport to the hotel, but from hotel to Patong the taxi s were charging 400 baht..total ripoff. Given tourism is down significantly in Phuket, I expected that prices would be reasonable to say the least. I would not stay at this hotel again nor would I recommend it.	As always...Sawadee is the only online booking service I use in Thailand. Excellent service, and I ve booked hotels many times with them the past 5 years. Highly recommend this service.
Chris DeSanges 2008-09-19	Baan Karonburi Resort, Karon Beach My wife & I stopped here for 11 nights.Good hotel, friendly staff, good buffet breakfast, although the hot dishes could have been warmer & the bacon was cooked to a frazzle. However, there was plenty of choice.The hotel was a bit too far out from the main centre... a good 1000m.Outside the hotel & across the road there is a lovely uncrowded beach. 200 baht for 2 loungers and an umbrella. Some nice restaurants in the main centre. The 2 chefs & the Red Onion were excellent. The Little Mermaid quite good as well.Taxis were overpriced. However ther is a bus service ( every half hour )which costs 30 baht.Starts at Phuket Town, then Karon and terminates at Kata & vice Versa.All buses radiate out from Phuket town.
Hong Yi 2008-08-20	Baan Karonburi Resort, Karon Beach good place and excellent service, but a bit far away from the shop such as 7-11, around 10 minutes by foot

Sharyn Atherton 2008-06-30 until 2008-07-14	Baan Karonburi Resort, Karon Beach We have stayed at the Baan Karonburi hotel on Karon beach 2 years in a row and love it! It is a small hotel, 48 rooms I think, the ocean view rooms are a good size and confortable, the staff are incredible, the pool is a good size however the pool bar could do with a make-over. Breakfast is very good and the restaurant overlooking the beach at ground level. Highly recommend this hotel but do book oceanview rooms.

Rosie, Laurie, Gayle 2008-04-04 until 2008-04-11	Baan Karonburi Resort, Karon Beach great location; friendly staff; breakfast okay but could use fresh bakery breads to class it up. Ocean view best in rooms 401,2 ,3 , 4/ 401-2 are connecting rooms. Out the door, cross a little street and on the beach. close to shopping market, three convenience stores very near. If arriving early am stop at 7/11 on way in for beverage and snacks before bed. Mini bar is pricey. Red Onion is a must eat place. Little Mermaid wide variety of cuisine but wait staff still as grumpy as ever; however, a glass of wine comes with mains and wide choice of international beers. One can forgive the surly waitresses after a coupla. Stay in garden view to save during high season. Pool under construction during week of April 12-19. Late sleepers may be disturbed by construction of new building behind the hotel, near the pool. There is actually only one pool not two. The kids pool is right with the other, but nice swim up bar. In room massages available.	sawadee.com is the very best in the business. They are professional, efficient, tolerant, kind, prompt.
Michael Falker 2008-04-03 until 2008-04-06	Baan Karonburi Resort, Karon Beach Ok hotel with nice staff. We stayed in a seaview deluxe. The hotelroom was a bit old and not worth the price we payed, 3300 baht. Very central and close to everything in Karon. Some disturbance from building workers near the hotel.	Excellent
