This was our second stay at this hotel, sadly the place has gone down hill fast, stuffed up our connecting room request , didn t organize the vehicle for transfer to airport even though it was booked at check in and check 2 days prior to check out, premier lounge was advertised free spirits , beer, wine and food(you pay for this in your package) served food that should be hot Cold and food that should be kept cold left to warm up over a few hrs , IE mussels ,smoked salmon etc.. Wine was out of a cardboard box and if you didn t like Brandy , Gin or vodka bad luck. The ice cold water and fruit juice available all day was warm....the rooms are run down, the balcony floods when it rains and stays that way until mopped up by house keeping, that is if it is not raining when they service your room. They place needs work a lot of it simple repairs and maintenance this is clear.... And may be a manager that leaves his office once and a while to check out the state of the hotel. I am guessing this doesn t happen due to the state that it has been left to get in.... Lift your game Centara, my family and the two other family s that where with dought very much that we will return again unless we get a positive report from one of our many friends that us shall stay at this once good hotel.

Accommodation and facilities:
This was our fourth stay at the Centara Karon Beach Resort and it seemed to lack the atmosphere of previous visits. May staff have left or been replaced and many of the new lacked customer relations and interest. Breakfast is buffet and quite adequate however self service for coffee etc and no muesli detracted. The breakfast reception was poor and you often had to wait fairly long while they tried to find a table although it was clear several were vacant. Queuing for eggs very slow. Happy hours at the pool have changed to 5pm to 7pm (it was 4-6) and lack of people was evident which certainly detracted the atmosphere. Drink prices also appear to have risen. We had several mistakes with our bill and were key locked out of our room prior to our departure (their error). Room was adequately maintained. One of the 3 swimming pools was dirtied by someone and it took far to long for the matter to be rectified. Overall still a good resort however we were disappointed and will probably go elsewhere next time
Reservation service:
Very good no problems thanks

We have just come back from an 8 day stay at Centara Karon Resort & we have nothing bad to say! We went with 4 adults & 2 children (5 & 1 1/2), we stayed in the Lagoon area. Everything was perfect, the rooms were gorgeous & clean, the staff were gracious, friendly & happy to chat, the grounds & pool areas were one of the best we ve seen. Overall it was one of the most relaxing holidays we ve had as a family. Oh & the food? Delicious.
Reservation service:
We had no problem at all booking with Sawadee, even at the last minute I realised I hadn t booked a transfer from the airport to our hotel, with one email to Sawadee it was sorted. Brilliant!

Overall Centara was a fab hotel. Great for kids. We used the kids club which was fantastic. Breakfast was nice, big variety though popular food like bacon was only offered every second day. They definately need more umbrellas around the pool as the those seats where taken at 9am. The only thing we didn t like was the fact that the housekeeping didn t leave us water on the 1st day and water and towels on the second day until we phoned reception, from then on everything was provided correctly. Staff are friendly and it is in a good locstion, close to nightlife and beach. Good happy hour for cocktails and also ice cream for the kids which was great. If you wanted to order food though there was no service around the pool, we had to get up and go an order it at the counter. That was diffcult with young kids who didn t want to get out of the pool, cause you can t order and watch swimming children.
Reservation service:
great booking service with e-mails and very fast response via e-mail, good prices, easy to pay, reliable and trust worthy. Would defiantely book again.
