Baan Karonburi Resort

I booked a Premier Room and a Deluxe Room at the Kuta Central Park Hotel. Personally, I think the Deluxe Room's environment is on par with the Premier Room, and some of the bathroom facilities in the Deluxe Room even seemed a bit newer than our Premier Room. However, we encountered some renovation noise. I'm not sure if it was from a neighboring hotel or directly above us, but the Deluxe Room side was definitely noisier during the day. Also, the Wi-Fi in the Deluxe Room was much worse than in the Premier Room; it was incredibly slow, despite being the same network. We brought a filtered shower head, and the water quality at Kuta Central Park was better than I expected. They changed the towels daily, and even after heavy rain, the water didn't appear noticeably yellow.

Do NOT stay in room 2301! It's incredibly noisy. There's some machine making noise all night long, and the mattress creaks with every turn. I'm not exaggerating – I barely slept a wink.

Great location! It's right across from the beach, and there are restaurants and massage parlors about 20-30 meters to the left. A 7-Eleven is also just about 20-30 meters to the right. The pool bar has a happy hour in the afternoon, so ordering two cocktails is a really good deal.

The location is absolutely fantastic! It's right next to a 7-Eleven, and there are plenty of snack stalls, restaurants, night markets, and massage places all around. Taxis are also readily available. I'll definitely book this place again for my next trip. The facilities are good, and the breakfast is decent too. If you can, I recommend booking a ground-floor room with direct pool access, but you can always go down for a morning swim early!

The room was a bit dated, and the tropical humidity made the wooden cabinets smell a bit musty. The transparent shower door also looked a little dirty. On the positive side, the breakfast was delicious and varied daily. There were also multiple swimming pools. The hotel is very close to Karon Beach, just across the road from the entrance. Taxis and public transport seemed quite convenient. There's a market and a street on both sides of the hotel, making it easy to find massages and places to eat.

Everything was great except for the Wi-Fi! The hotel is super close to Karon Beach, right in the middle of it!

The room with direct access to the small pool was pretty good. It was very convenient for swimming and not crowded.
