Beautiful Villa

I have recently stayed in the villa for 3 weeks and it was just like home. It has everything you need, just like home. The Villa is beautiful! The pool and outdoor area is amazing and lovely and private .. its like your own little tropical oasis. The villa is large and very well appointed, the bedrooms and bathrooms are large and beautifully decorated. The beds are on the firm side (which i like) but extremely comfortable and I always had a great nights sleep. it is in a very quiet location but only a very short stroll to restaurants and beautiful Karon Beach. I have rebooked the villa for my next trip. Kaew was my host at the property and she is just wonderful and will help you with everything you might need. There is motorbike hire, laundry, restaurants, convenience stores and Chemists all within a 1 minute walk from the villa. this really is an amazing villa for an extended stay ... Its so good I have already booked my next scuba diving holiday and have rebooked the villa. Thank you Chantal and Kaew for an amazing holiday experience and beautiful Villa. I am already looking forward to my next trip to Phuket. Warm Regards Twane

Great family stay at Karon Happy Apartment

The apartment was really spacious and clean. Beds were so comfy. Loved my morning coffee on the large balcony looking out to the beach. Marcus was great at communicating with us and making sure we had everything we needed. Apartment was really centrally located close to restaurants, shops and the beach. Easy to catch tuk tuks from out front. Kids loved having access to the adjoining resort’s facilities. Would definitely look to book again if coming back to Karon.
