Beautiful, peaceful hotel with well maintained swimming pool in a great location with a few steps to the beach and not far from Nakkerd hill with Big Buddha. Very friendly staff. Delicious food.
Lovely hotel in a great location at the end of Karon Beach and the start of Kata Beach where you'll find a variety of shop, restaurants and bars.
The staff were lovely and couldn't do enough for us.
Our hotel room was very clean with a comfortable bed and pillows. Decorated in traditional Thai style but could do with a bit of an upgrade. Only gripe was the towels which were so very thin.
Breakfast was lovely with a good variety to meet all of our tastes. Lunch options were good too and very reasonable priced.
Only negative comment was the pool sunbeds which were very uncomfortable with very thin plastic cushions.
Situated between Kata and Karon beach.
100 meters to the beach out front door.
Close to Dino park and Kata beach road and night market!
On site spa facility with cheap prices!
View of ocean and pool area is peaceful!
Built on the side of the mountain about a 5 minute walk to beach but the building has no elevators so if your above the first floor you better be in shape
Great little place to stay staff friendly rooms clean only problem many stairs if you are put in top rooms as there are no lifts breakfast is buffet no bacon though meals overall are nice close to beach but definitely too many stairs for older people to climbp

Only downfall was no elevator and we were on the 4 th floor 😳 sprained my ankle first day on the stairs
overall service was poor, room was not cleaning well at each day. Incorrect linen left each ie: one towel for two ppl. I would not recommend this Korona Beach Resort & Spa to friends or family as there are many other resorts in the area who provide better overall service.

When we arrived at the hotel after a long day of travel, they told us our room had been cancelled by Expedia and we needed to pay them again directly. When I called Expedia this was not the case. We felt a though they were trying to scam us so we booked another room. Now, Expedia has been trying to contact them to figure out what was happening and they have no been returning any calls or emails.
Horrible manager. He did not refund when we did not stay at the property at all. He overselled shabby looking hotel by falsely putting photos on lastminute.com.au. My mother who is 65 year old was put in a shabby room at 4AM in the morning. When we paid for Deluxe room they put us in a shabby dark room and DID NOT REFUND my money. Only for money making business with no hospitality towards customers.

Det var for det meste ok,de var ikke intressert for å gi det lille eksta . Hotellet var slitt og eg forstår ikke det kan forsvare stjernene sine. Max 3
ABBIAMO PRENOTATO UN ALBERGO A 4 STELLE. CAMERA: SPORCA, MALEODORANTE, BAGNO CON PERDITE, MUFFA, PIANOTERRA CON "PASSAGGIO PEDONALE" 0 PRIVACY. CLASSIFICAZIONE 4 STELLE ARBITRARIA, 1 STELLA È ANCHE TROPPO. DOVEVAMO RIMANERE 19 GIORNI, DOPO 2 GIORNI SIAMO ANDATI VIA. UNA PERDITA DI SOLDI E DI TEMPO.
Nicht weit vonm schönen Karon Strand.
Wasser und Sand wirklich super.
Zuwenig Mülltonnen in der Stadt, geht aber auch schlecht weil die Gehwege sehr schmal sind.

Good location for the beach and the town. The hotel itself was a bit dated and smelt a bit musty (especially the spa - although my husband said his massage was excellent). We didn't really use the restaurant or bars - the pool bar closed early evening and the restaurant had no atmosphere whatsoever. Breakfast was ok. Next time I will pay the extra for a resort which has more facilities and a beach view from the pool.

Beliggende tæt ved havet og byen. Ok hotel på 3 stjerner
Ligger perfekt for stranden
Sød/venlig og hjælpsom betjening
Dårlig altan, men da vi bad om 2 stole, var de der i løbet af 5 min. Der var kun en lille træbænk i forvejen.
Mukava hotelli erittäin hyvällä sijainnilla. Aamupala maittava ja palvelu hyvä. Hotelli on rinteessä ja siinä ei ole hissiä. Sänky oli tosi kova muuten huone tilava ja siisti.
