Best Western Phuket Ocean Resort

This resort is located at the northern end of Karon Beach. It has about 300 rooms in various wings located on the hillside. This means there are views from the balconies which are very private. There is also air movement around the resort to catch cooling breezes. You can see and hear various birds and animals in the area.
Check in was easy and the staff were friendly and helpful. The dining room at the resort offered a range of Thai and Western dishes and the drinks were good value. The swimming pools are fabulous. The hotel has a lift but there are steps and stairs around the resort so it probably isn't great for guests with mobility issues.
Karon Beach is about 4 kilometers long which is great for swimming and walking. There were a lot of local cafes, bars and restaurants within easy walking distance. The Karon Temple Markets were also within easy walking distance. We could dine along the beach and also walk to Kata Beach where there are more shops, markets and restaurants. There is market style shopping close by and a few 711s. Tuk Tuks, local buses and private taxis are easy to access outside the hotel if you want to sightsee, go to Patong Beach or the main shopping in Phuket. You are located at the bottom end of Phuket and a distance from the airport so transfers are handy.
Our room was clean and spacious and we would stay there again. It is an older style resort so guests who want a more glamorous stay in Phuket might choose another hotel.

Great value, would recommend this hotel for all types of travelers.

Best service with the most friendly people will go back anytime again well done
