Myself and my husband stayed at the Baan Karonburi for 7 nights in Feb 2006. The hotel is in a perfect location - right opposite a gorgeous beach and about 5 minute's walk to shops and restaurants. When we arrived at the hotel we were given some refreshing drinks while our bags were taken to our room, and the staff were very friendly.

The rooms are large, with tv, air conditioning (a must in Thailand!) and a fridge with two free bottles of water every day for guests. The bathroom was a decent size too, fairly standard.

There was a nice pool in the hotel grounds, but we did not use it much as the beach was so near.

Overall I would highly recommend this hotel as it is great value for money and is in a really good location.
