We were met and seated immediately. There was a nice pool on site. Nice styled rooms. Convenient location, close to beach access. Everything you need is within walking distance: shops, pharmacies, massage parlors, "tents" with fruit, dozens of restaurants and cafes. .

The hotel is good and not expensive, and from this you can already understand that it makes no sense to expect anything special. But overall very good for the price. Some write they say they tear up the price, etc. But in fact, the prices are raised for the flight and not for the hotels themselves. For example, we had a modest budget and, by choice, we did not even pretend to be one of the five-star hotels. … More ▾ The hotel is good and not expensive, and from this you can already understand that it makes no sense to expect anything special.

For example, we had a modest budget and, by choice, we did not even pretend to be one of the five-star hotels. But among his class. The hotel is very good. Service is ok. They react quite actively to the request, albeit not always) But even if they forget something, yes, and it was just repeat once and they will do everything. Cleaned pretty well again for this level of hotel. In general, everything is clean, but no one will climb into all the cracks. Yes, and at home, not everyone daily wipes the baseboards and behind the refrigerator. The hotel is quite nice, everything is done neatly thought out. The interior of the hotel features various sculptures and design installations. The territory is small but it is. All infrastructure in close proximity. Cafes, restaurants, exchange office. And the beach is close to walk for five minutes to seven. It is very convenient that the room has beach towels, mats bag for free. In general, the hotel takes very good care of the guests. The staff is very friendly. Many thanks to all of them for their work. The room is good and spacious. Furniture in good condition. The bed is comfortable. Free safe, free mini bar. Internet is also free and catches everywhere on the territory. The breakfasts are delicious and quite varied. Another plus is that there are two pools. In general, the hotel is a very good and not expensive option for a holiday in Thailand. Lots of pros and almost no cons. We liked everything!

Perhaps it’s worth at the beginning of my review to say about the shortcomings of them, and so the hotel is basically one plus! The hotel staff does not speak Russian, which is inconvenient for some, so I think it's worth mentioning. But everyone speaks English, we were told about this at the stage of choosing a hotel, and for us this is not a problem, so it did not affect the choice of a hotel in any way. … More ▾ Perhaps it’s worth at the beginning of my review to say about the shortcomings of them, and so the hotel is basically one plus!

But everyone speaks English, we were told about this at the stage of choosing a hotel, and for us this is not a problem, so it did not affect the choice of a hotel in any way. The hotel also has a small area but there is a nice green area by the pool. Well, probably from the minuses this is all. Now about the pluses they are in everything. The breakfasts are good, but here everyone has their own opinion. The only thing for us is that we didn’t see the point in taking a different type of food, since the hotel is located in the center of Karon and there is a well-developed infrastructure nearby. The beach is 3-5 minutes across the road. The movement is strong but you get used to it quickly. Towels, mats bag free of charge in the room. So I didn’t even have to buy a mat) According to the number, we also lived without complaints in the old building, there is also a new one built in 2016, but our room, at least so to speak, was quite decent in the old building. Spacious furniture in good condition safe free minibar too, and replenished regularly as consumption all reported every day. Cleaning is good too. There is a kettle, tea and coffee set. Bathrobes slippers in the bathroom hair dryer and replenish bathroom accessories down to caps and cotton swabs. Another of our wishes when choosing a hotel was the availability of free internet. The Internet is free and catches both in the rooms and throughout the territory, which is very convenient. The hotel even has a playground for the kids. There are two adults and two children's pools. Moreover, the pools do not smell of bleach, and the children's pool is in the shade. In general, I think everyone here will like it! But to go here with a large family will not work, since the maximum accommodation in the rooms is three people. I just picked up a hotel for my sister at the same time, and they have two children.

They lived in a new building. The room is good and everything is there. Down to mats and an umbrella from the rain. The mini bar was replenished every day for free. Beer, water, cola and Snickers, albeit not rich, but also nice) It's also very good that in addition to the shower there is a separate bathroom in the room. … More ▾ They lived in a new building.

A large comfortable bed bed in good condition, but with a replacement, the problem is to ask and they will change at least every other day. Cleaning and change of towels daily. Internet is free but the quality of work leaves much to be desired. Although everyone says that this is a real problem in other hotels. Well, for Viber and social networks it was enough. The location was very important as the beach and cafes with shops were nearby. The beach really turned out to be nearby for about three minutes on foot slowly. The hotel is at the back of the street and therefore very quiet and peaceful. There are many cafes nearby, several good restaurants with seafood, everything fresh is cooked deliciously. There is a pharmacy and nearby a local market with various junk) There are several massage parlors nearby. The hotel also has a nice swimming pool and it works to the fullest. . The hotel has a very good choice for breakfast, we still doubted whether it was worth taking them, but after a little thought we realized that it was cheaper anyway. Breakfast includes both European and Asian dishes. Good pastry, lots of fruit. The only coffee we didn’t really like, well, it’s all a matter of taste) The service is good, all the staff are polite, friendly nice people. There is nothing special to do in the hotel; there is a gym with several exercise machines and dumbbells, in general, there is nothing) Well, I mentioned this for general information, we didn’t need it. In general, the hotel left only positive impressions about itself!

I want to note right away that all Marina hotels are in high-tech style. For an amateur.

This hotel is clean, everything is renovated, made in the same theme.

There are shops and agencies near the hotel. 5 minutes walk to Karon beach. There are no Russian speaking staff at the hotel.

The territory is small - one solid pool. I feel like it's tight. And noisy.

The rooms are great, everything is thought out, comfortable.

The size of the deluxe room is 58 sq. m.

The room has a beach mat (so cute).

There is no mini club. There is a playground. There is a gym.

Wi-fi is free throughout the territory.

Water, chocolate, beer, bp juices every day.

Recomend for everybody.

If we consider the hotel, so to speak, under a microscope, then there are almost no shortcomings. In short, the service for this class of hotel is excellent, and the location is good. Now I want to paint, in more detail, about the advantages of the hotel and small disadvantages, which are practically non-existent, and they do not affect the overall picture. … More ▾ If we consider the hotel, so to speak, under a microscope, then there are almost no shortcomings. In short, the service for this class of hotel is excellent, and the location is good. Now I want to paint, in more detail, about the advantages of the hotel and small disadvantages, which are practically non-existent, and they do not affect the overall picture. The most important thing for our family was the developed infrastructure around the hotel, because going to Asia and just lying on the beach without feeling the local flavor, smell and taste of spices, I just don’t see the point. In any case, we try to choose a not expensive hotel, but with excellent service and a good beach, preferably not so far from the hotel itself. Sugar Marina and five minutes from the beach, even with a child, and next to all the benefits of civilization)). There is also something to see nearby, I recommend going to the Wat Suwan temple, not far from the temple there is a good Karon Temple Market, which starts working in the evening, where you can buy fruit and try Thai cuisine in all its glory. Not to mention the fact that there are many different cafes, massage parlors, a pharmacy and exchange offices near the hotel, but be careful, you can both find a good rate and miscalculate well. Food in most cafes and restaurants is not expensive, but always very tasty and satisfying, and most importantly, variety. Karon Beach, in my opinion, one of the best in Phuket. There is no garbage and noise, as in Patong. The sand is always clean, creaks a little, it is also called "singing". Sun loungers and umbrellas are paid, but you can take a bedding and a towel from the hotel. The sea is also clean, it was fun to swim when there were waves, it takes your breath away)). Once again, I will focus on service. The staff is friendly, the service is fast, the check-in to the room is almost immediate. At first they wanted to move us to the old building, but after a thorough, more detailed examination of the room, we asked to be moved to the new building. Our room was changed at no extra charge, which could not but please. The room was brand new, with good repair, furniture and appliances. Cleaning is also excellent, a lot of fresh towels daily, there are even bathrobes. Safe and bar in the room for free. A standard set of household appliances, a good quiet air conditioner. More than enough food for breakfast. There was a complete set with eggs, appetizers, salads, a couple of soups, delicious coffee and an excellent rich selection of fruits, although a little boring in the end. And finally, about the territory of the hotel. There are two swimming pools, one of which has a small jacuzzi area. The pools always looked clean, splashed in them several times with pleasure. There is a lot of different greenery on the territory, everything is clean and well-groomed, it is pleasant to be. Excursions were taken in the hotel itself, it turned out a little more expensive, but without fear for the consequences. To everyone who is currently resting, or planning to go to this hotel, we wish you a great rest.

I think that the Sugar Marina Hotel can be safely called one of the best hotels in Karon. I'll start with the meeting and check-in. It was nice that as soon as we got to the reception, we were met from the road with very tasty ice cream, and cooled down and had a bite. The staff at the reception is very friendly and smiling, they waited for the check-in for about 40 minutes, not long, and earlier than the scheduled time. … More ▾ I think that the Sugar Marina Hotel can be safely called one of the best hotels in Karon.

The staff at the reception is very friendly and smiling, they waited for the check-in for about 40 minutes, not long, and earlier than the scheduled time. We were given a room in the new building. The first thing I liked was that everything in the room was thought out for a comfortable and cozy stay. Accordingly, everything is brand new, working. In the room there are bathrobes, slippers, mats and umbrellas (by the way, large ones) for the beach, beach towels, bath towels for the shower, a hairdryer, a TV set with 3 Russian channels, a tea and coffee set with everything that comes with it, a free safe and a mini-bar . You need to know that the mini-bar was replenished only after it was completely empty, well, or if you ask. They put juice, beer, water and chocolates. Shampoo and soap were also topped up every day, towels changed daily, and bed linen every three days. Not in every 3-4 star hotel you will find such service. A few more words about the service in the hotel. The territory and pools (and there are two of them) are always clean, the staff is constantly cleaned. Lots of greenery, everything is beautiful and well maintained. Although the pools are small, it is quite possible to swim, especially at lunchtime, when you are too lazy to go to the beach. Not more than 5 minutes to the beach, very close. The road is pleasant, not in the sun. We did not see any garbage on the beach, it was also cleaned regularly. City beach, sun loungers and umbrellas for a fee of 100 baht, but we did not use them, why, there are also comfortable mats from the hotel, and towels. For us, this option was more suitable. Near the hotel there are many different establishments where you can tasty and inexpensive, and most importantly, a hearty meal. In the evenings, they bought food in macarons, no worse than in a cafe. A couple of times we took lunch at the hotel restaurant, of course a little expensive, but for that there is a rich choice. Speaking of breakfast. The breakfast time itself is well thought out, there was always enough time and food. Breakfasts are simply gorgeous, especially for Tai. A very large selection of fruits, several types of pastries, delicious soups. Especially pleased with the presence of a coffee machine, and very good coffee. We always went to the beach early in the morning, and after it, we always had time for breakfast. At what the choice of dishes was in the end, which could not but rejoice. In the end, I want to say that you can safely go to this hotel, and even more so if you take a room in the new building. We wish everyone to have a great holiday, as we did.

I'll start with the beach. Firstly, clean with a convenient entrance to the sea, there are waves but not too big. At low tide, the water goes away but not too far. Palm trees grow along the coast from the road, which creates a natural shade, but be careful, we were immediately warned that coconuts could fall. … More ▾ I'll start with the beach.

Palm trees grow along the coast from the road, which creates a natural shade, but be careful, we were immediately warned that coconuts could fall. The sand is super nice to walk. You can always ride a parachute on the beach. And other water activities. And from the hotel to the beach literally across the road. Yes, and the place where the hotel is located is quite busy shops cafes. You can rent a bike. Everything is convenient and close at hand. The hotel has a good hearty breakfast and a fairly good range of what to eat. The hotel restaurant mainly serves Thai cuisine, so we had lunch and dinner outside the hotel. But everything is close by, you don't have to go far. The territory of the hotel is clean, there is a nice swimming pool, but the territory itself is small. There is even a mini garden, if I may say so. There are few sun loungers near the pool, but there are rarely many people there. Free Wi-fi catches perfectly, of course, we didn’t download films, but for normal surfing it was enough. We went for the sake of the beach and not too expensive. The quality to price ratio is perfect. The hotel room was also completely satisfied with us, plus a mini bar free of charge and replenished regularly. Cleaning was also done daily. With plumbing everything is in order, the water pressure is normal. All electrical appliances worked flawlessly. Plus, our room had a small balcony, but a table and a couple of chairs fit in) In general, a neat room. I put five with a plus, because in all respects, including the price, the hotel completely suited us.

It's not the first time we've been to Phuket. We don’t bother much with hotels, because we always go to see the country and sights, and not stay at the hotel all the time, so we don’t stay in very expensive hotels. The main criterion is the availability, location and comfort of the rooms. This time with Sugar Marina we were extremely lucky. … More ▾ It's not the first time we've been to Phuket.

The main criterion is the availability, location and comfort of the rooms. This time with Sugar Marina we were extremely lucky. The hotel has an excellent location between the two beaches of Kata and Kata Noi. Kata is a little closer, but that there, that you can easily get there on foot. Both beaches are clean and with excellent sea. There are always free sunbeds available. The sand is fine and clean. The absence of algae and big waves also pleased. The sea, as always, is magical, clean and very warm. The beach stretches for a very long distance, so you can easily retire and be alone with the wonderful nature of the island. The hotel also has a lot of positives. There are a lot of shops and restaurants nearby. Since it is not located in the very center, it is quite quiet in it. . Among other things, if you are too lazy to go somewhere, you can have a pretty decent and tasty lunch at the hotel itself, and most importantly, the prices are quite inexpensive with an excellent choice of dishes and quality food, and even cheaper than in some local restaurants, but with better service . Breakfast included in the price is no less varied. Delicious omelettes, bacon, vegetables and fruits, various breakfast cereals, fresh pastries, yoghurts, meat and fish, side dishes in the form of noodles and rice, as well as delicious Thai soups. So recharging was quite enough until lunch, and sometimes until dinner, if you take a walk))) We were also very pleased with the rooms and the service itself. Cleaning is daily and of high quality, just do not forget to hang a sign on the door with the side where cleaning is written, otherwise you will not be disturbed))). Very comfortable bathroom with bathtub and shower. An interesting design move with a glass wall from the bathroom to the room itself. If you are not satisfied, then you can close the blinds, but my husband and I really liked it; ). Towels and bedding were changed regularly, as well as shampoos and gels. . A great bonus was the constantly replenished free minibar with drinks and Snickers. Also, there is a small but comfortable balcony with a table and chairs for evening and morning gatherings. All the furniture in the rooms is new and comfortable, air conditioning and a plasma TV, which we hardly used. We also never encountered problems with hot-cold water, extraneous smells and sounds. The hotel has a small but comfortable area, a clean pool with cool night lighting. There is a gym with everything you need to keep fit. So we were very pleased with the Sugar Marina hotel, as well as the rest itself in general. We will recommend it to our friends and acquaintances, and also wish everyone else a good holiday.

ABOUT THE HOTEL I chose for a long time according to reviews both Karon Beach and the hotel. The hotel left a pleasant impression. One minus - a good audibility of sounds from the corridor (why people are yelling there in the morning like in a forest, it is not clear).

I chose for a long time according to reviews both Karon Beach and the hotel.

The hotel left a pleasant impression. One minus - a good audibility of sounds from the corridor (why people are yelling there in the morning like in a forest, it is not clear).

We ordered a Deluxe Pool View room, and settled in it in 5-10 minutes on the 4th floor. Card from the room in one copy. Large bed, LCD, bathtub and shower with a curtain (gel and shampoo were replenished), a good mini-bar (it freezes 5+, not like in Turkey), a balcony. The air conditioner worked well.

Free daily 1 beer, 1 juice, 1 cola in the minibar. Tea and coffee are also included.

Ants walk on the balcony, but we didn’t call them to the room, they didn’t come))

The reception is always smiling and can help, communicated in English. By the way, near the reception in glass vases, multi-colored soft toys were swapped daily ))

Breakfast is always rice, scrambled eggs, ham, buns, fruit. Fine.

Cleaning and change of towels (beach too) arranged, leaving paper money.
The elevator worked flawlessly. Wi-fi, free throughout the hotel, the quality depends on the location of the router.

For hotel guests 10% discount at the Mail Sea Food restaurant near the lake. Expensive restaurant anyway.

We had a check out at 5 am, so we gave a coupon for breakfast in the evening. To which we were offered a lunch box. There is nothing special there, but it's nice)

FOR THOSE WHO ARE FIRST TIME IN PHUKET/THAILAND

I repelled in many respects from this map (updated a couple more places).

http://wikimapia. org/#lat=7.8496625&lon=98.2942264&z=17&l=1&m=b&search=Sugar%20Palm%20Karon

Everything is close to the hotel due to its good location. Several supermarkets nearby, a little further 7eleven (I liked more) and Family Mart.

Be sure to walk up the street towards the mountains. See everything for yourself. You will see the temple, on the territory of which on Thursdays and Sundays (maybe + another day) there is a market. You can buy normal T-shirts for 100 baht. Pleased Lacoste, 200 rubles each. With the inscription Made in France))

Lunch and dinner all the time in different places. Everything is delicious. Then Tom Yum was specially ate spicy)
On the road parallel to the beach, you will reach the clothing market. It is better to visit after dark, otherwise you will find yourself in a sauna under a canopy.

I really liked Karon Beach, the sand whistles / creaks if you stomp / snort hard on it. In the sea, very small fish in the evenings jump out of the water in flocks, for which they were nicknamed "dolphins" by us =))

Even at home, I decided not to rent a bike, but to take a car, because I had no experience. But on the spot, he changed his mind and took the bike (as it turned out, not in vain). There is a very good place to learn on your own without traffic (between the lake and the beach). In no case do I urge everyone without experience to sit on a bike. But if you feel the strength and have driving skills, you will not regret it. The main thing is not to drive, and everything will be ok.

Well, look for rentals that do not need a passport, but take a deposit ($ 100). Without advertising, we found it in our own hotel, albeit a little more expensive.

After that, they began to explore the island. We traveled almost the entire southern part.
Were at observation points (view point on local maps). Indescribable beauty. We visited various temples. Without this, our holiday would not have been complete. On the way to Big Budda (if you are on a bike) you can stop by a bird show (very fun) and ride elephants (a little higher).

Of all the beaches, Karon was my favorite. We went snorkeling with different fish at the stones in the southern part of Karon, I advise everyone (marked on the map next to the Karon Beach Resort & Spa 4 *).

ATMs and exchangers at every turn (up the road to the mountains I found a better rate). When withdrawing from an ATM, the commission is -150 baht.

Latex pillows were taken nearby 4 times cheaper than at the representative offices of factories that bring tourists. All these funny legends about fakes are for the especially impressionable))

There is nothing in Patong for which it would be worth going there, even on a bike, even on a tuk-tuk. If you decide, then bargain up to 300 baht. But we must say not Patong (400 baht), but JungCeylon shopping.
The JungCeylon shopping center was not particularly impressed (but cheap soft toys, TVs).

In Phuket Airport Duty, all prices are in baht. Martini-390/liter, Baileys-700/liter.

I would like to return again to Phuket and Thailand. I recommend the hotel to everyone.

But, if you ride a bike, you can find it not so close to the beach, but cheaper. And it's a pleasure to ride a bike)) Have a good rest everyone!
