Lai Zhi Xian Daniel 2008-07-30 until 2008-08-01	Phuket Island View, Karon Beach after an initial mixup where they gave us a double instead of the twin i d asked clearly for, we had a pleasant stay. rooms were clean and pleasingly furnished and front desk service was responsive. the beach outside was fantastic as well! ...though it soon got frustrating being quoted B300 just for the cab ride to patong.	fast and efficient.
George O. 2008-07-13 until 2008-07-17	Phuket Island View, Karon Beach This hotel was fantastic. The location near the beach was very ideal and the Karon area was not bad at all. The room was perfect for us and the hotel staff were extremely helpful whenever we requested anything. The breakfast was a wise investment including it with the room.	Very easy to use and efficient system.
OLIVER JUNG 2008-06-17 until 2008-06-21	Phuket Island View, Karon Beach Very recommend this resort. The stuff were very friendly and helpful. We had a better-class room in 3rd level with a perfect view to outside and a very nice bathroom. Very clean and fast room service. Right now they are fixing the inside pool and the desks and chairs for main season. The only poor thing was the beach which was not cleaned any time but swimming wasn´t allowed this time.	There is only one word for the sawadee-service till now: PERFECT ! Go ahead with this great service !
Kim Vestergaard Nielsen 2008-05-14 until 2008-05-24	Phuket Island View, Karon Beach Me and my ddaughter Mathilde had a wonderful time at Phuket Island View. Its one of the best hotels ive stayed at. The hotel has a great location, free from street noise, and bars. Its ideal for children, and the pool area is great. The rooms are spacious, and very clean. The staff at the reception are very friendly and serviceminded. I cant believe that I could get a hotel so cheap. Anywhere in the world you d xpect to pay 4-5 times the price. Me and my daughter have allready descided to go back to Phuket, and we will stay at Phuket Island View.	This was my first time ever to book a hotel via the Internet. It was much cheaper, and very easy. The next time I go to Thailand, I will use Sawadee.com again.
eleanor poore 2008-05-12 until 2008-05-16	Phuket Island View, Karon Beach We were very impressed by Phuket Island View from the moment we arrived. Instantly upgraded because the Standard rooms are being reburbished, we were given a lovely bungalow set in a garden next to one of the three pools, at no extra cost. Indeed the cost of our stay was incredible. The food was excellent, we had huge choices for breakfast & we had some lunches & dinners at the hotel too. The staff were lovely, couldn t do enough for you.Special mentions for the waiting staff, some of them didn t have great english but they more than made up for that with their friendliness & enthusiasm. As it was a quiet time of year just beginning the Monsoon season the hotel was not busy with guests so that meant we had a lot of staff to cater for us. Definetly recommend the Beauty Spa, lovely manicures. We would definetly return to this hotel again. Can recommend the Tourist Information Centre in Karon. Mrs Jiraporn Tanrut really helped us out with tours & taxis without ripping us off. Also a fab restaurant, On The Rocks was superb, we ate like kings with champagne & fantastic for under £30 for the two of us. We had a really fantastic holiday in Karon & can t recommend Phuket Island View highly enough.	Excellent
Martin L. 2008-04-16 until 2008-04-20	Phuket Island View, Karon Beach The hotel from outside is not so interesting and since we have been in Karon Beach many times I was intriged to see what will be offered. Suprise! The hotels pool area (all three of them) are beautifully located with great green areas! The pools were very clean and even if low season started well maintained every morning! The breakfast was impressive. All you can imagine, very good variation with some change every day. As it should be for a hotel like this. The food was very fresh. The omelettes served and made on the fly were very good. You often saw the chef comming out to check if everything was fresh or had to be replaced. Well done. Impressive service. Most people will not be dissapointed - the just shouldn t be. Staff was great. Pleasent, friendly and we really felt welcome. Location is great. Couldn t be better I think. Although I think that the bungalows can probably have some problems with music in the evenings from the area around the hotels north side. Room (standard) is simple, but enough for the price and hotel. Only thing that could be improved in the future is that the WiFi offered around reception area could maybe be extended to the rooms. We will not hesistate to book this hotel next visit in Karon Beach!! Recommended.	Great as always!
Diane Morrison 2008-04-15 until 2008-04-20	Phuket Island View, Karon Beach very nice hotel right opposite the beach. excellent buffet style breakfast. great value spec at low season rates which kick in earlier than most other hotels in the area. Quiet part of Phuket which I liked because Patong was crazy! great shopping but will be returning to Koh Samui which I preferred as a hoilday destination.	excellent. was cheaper to book thru sawadee than at the actual hotel!
Vesa Hintsanen 2008-03-20 until 2008-03-27	Phuket Island View, Karon Beach Location is very good - just nearby the beach, which we visited almost every day. Last day we visited one of the three pools - nothing negative about that either. Cleaning of room was excellent every day with new towels. And a towel for sunbathe also. Beds were very good with a bit hard mattress - I liked that. Breakfast was ok. Nice garden. The only negative thing was poor pressure in shower. I m not sure if it was specific for this hotel or if it is a common feature for the area - this was our first time in Phuket. Laundry service was a bit expensive, so check prices before using that service. I would definitely come back to this hotel.	No problems.
Ann-Christin Bodin 2008-03-01 until 2008-03-22	Phuket Island View, Karon Beach very nice hotel ,good service and the staf are just wonderful. We have been at this hotel for the last 4 times that we visited Thailand and we just love it. We will surely come back	The booking service is good. easy to change small details and easy to contact
Kirsten Selnø 2008-02-08 until 2008-02-22	Phuket Island View, Karon Beach This is a wonderful hotel with the most helpful, nice and smiling staff. It is close to the beach, close to Kata and have 3 beautiful pools (always clean). They also have a very competent and unforgettable massage-staff. I higly recommend this hotel and I will surely stay ind this hotel again.	Everything went smooth and with no problems - thank you
