Love the serentity”

Our stay was for Rest and Relaxation and that's exactly what we got. We also went with a group of friends and relaxed around the 3 beautiful pools. The surf at Karon Beach was just over the road and much better than Patong Beach's hustle and bustle. The shops and market at Karon Beach were ample for us and close enough to Paton Beach by Tuk Tuk if we needed more. Phuket Island View Hotel was wonderfully kept and managed. Loved it, loved it, loved it!!!!

Phuket Island View”

Phuket Island View Hotel is in a great location. The hotel is right across the street from the beach and is situated in the quieter area of Karon. There are numerous places to eat and drink within a short walking distance from the hotel. Additionally, there are a number of places to get a massage within about 150 meters of the hotel. The hotel is also quiet becuase it is set back from the road so there is no road noise in the rooms.

phuket island view”

we really enjoyed our stay at the phuket island view hotel.our room was lovely ,spotless and overlooked one of the three pools. the gardens were lush and the staff friendly and helpful. its in a great position ,between karon and kata,walkind distance to both and lots of great places to eat and shop in both areas. only across the road is the beach and plenty of transport around in the way of tuk tuks or taxis if you need it. also great pancakes available on the sreet carts in the evening.yummy.... you must try them

Great location, ammentities and service”

Just a stones throw from the beach, literally across the road from the front entrance, this hotel provides great service, spacious rooms and a great locallity. The staff were really helpful and very polite, nothing was too much trouble. As well as being so close to the beach (easy to loose a couple of hours strolling along the seashore, or for the more adventurous there are lots of water sports available), Phuket Island view is located within a string of other hotel, shops and resturants. The hotel has a spa, internet access, several food outlets (resturants and bars) and three pools of varying depths and designs (great for relaxing if you get fed up of the beach). The rooms were very spacious, mine being a generous twin with ensuite bathroom and balcony. Very clean, with towels (both bath and pool) and bottles of water provided.

Amazing location, I highly recomend this hotel!”

By far they have the best masseuses in Phuket! We stayed in Thailand for almost a month and all of them were hands down, the best. They were very friendly and professional. We stayed at this particular hotel for 3 nights and regret switching to a different hotel. Karon Sea Sands Resort doesn't compare to this one. We had a deluxe bungalow, well worth it for more privacy and a bit more spacious than a standard room. The hotel is literally right across from the beach and minutes to Kata town. The only downside I would say is that they need to upgrade the tv's in the room and the staff doesn't speak English very well. So make sure you have a translator handy. When we visit Phuket again, we will definetely book this hotel again! Worth every penny.

Big Resort right near the beach”

The Phuket Island View Hotel is a Huge Resort right across the street from he beach. They have a huge complex with 3 swimming pools and several areas to relax in. Their Buffet breakfast is huge and diverse, which is great because buying groceries is limited to 7-11s ands Family Marts unless you want to take a pricey cab to a Grocery store on a differnet part of the Island. The staff is very helpful, they even have a crossing guard. They charge 50 baht an hour for internet or 250 baht for 24 hours.

Very good hotel for it's class with nice gardens, ”

I have been for the second time in this hotel and beeing a hotelier for over 25 years I would consider this excellent value for money for Phuket. The Breakfast Buffet was for this hotel class deffiniterly better then I expected and the staff is very friendly everywhere. I had a problem with the aircondition in the room which wasn't working properly arround 7 p.m and after a call staff came immidiately and reolved it. The gardens are beautyful and well mentained. Karon Beach is just over the road and the village of Kata starts after a short walk of about 150 mts. Deffinitely one of the best places in this price range on Karon Beach.

Great location, value for money!”

i stayed here with my 12 year old son. being a woman travelling alone with my child i must say i felt very safe and secure at this hotel and in phuket in general. fantastic location just being opposite the beach, great pools, loved the swim up bar and the free popcorn. the rooms were comfortable and spacious, my only complaint would be that the air con was very noisy at night and i had to wear ear plugs to block out the noise, having said that it didn't bother my son at all. also, it was quite far to walk to the room we stayed in, we had a nice pool view but we had to walk right across the whole resort and up a couple of flights of stairs to get to our room. wasn't a big deal to me and my son as we're fit but i would imagine it'd be a pain in the neck for older folks or people with very young children. we went in low season and it was very cheap to stay here so it was real value for money. the buffet breakfast was great too! all in all i would recommend this hotel to families and couples. if you want to party i'd stay in patong.

Great Deal”

I have been to Phuket alot and most hotels are all about the same there. I have heard some people say this place sucks. But, they must be looking for a Hilton or something like that. This is not a Hilton if you are looking for something like that then stay there and pay more. This is a great place just as every place I have stayed at in Phuket. The breakfast was very good. You can rent a MotorBike from the hotel for 200 baht for 24 hours. Which is what we did for the time there. You are right across from the beach, Short walk to bar,places to eat and massages. Short MotorBike ride to Karon center,Kata Beach, and 10mins ride to Patong Beach. I would stay here again.

Best place to stay in Karon”

Our second time staying in this hotel, it has everything we need. The beautiful Karon beach is just across the road. Nice & clean pools, nice & cozy room, nice breakfast, good facilities, sufficient parking space. The best thing about Karon is it's not as crowded as Patong. Only thing that is not good is there's not much of convenient store around by walking such as family mart & 7-eleven. but this should not be an issue as we can drive to where ever we want. We will definitely stay here again next time everytime we come to Phuket.

Spacious, Great Location and Facilities”

We 4 people stayed there on 11/09/2011, and we could never expect the hotel could be this spacious. The rooms were very clean, comfortable with all the necessary facilities (carpet, safe, towel for beach, ...). Moreover, there are a 2.7m swimming pool, a swim-up bar and another pool as well (I wonder why they do have so many swimming pools here). The location was great, just opposite to the quiet Karon beach (but not calm during this rainy season). Not a lot of shops around, but a couple of nice restaurants are available for your choice. If you enjoy nightlife, this might not be the place for you. It's more for relaxing, somewhere you could avoid the crowd, and it is very true for the Karon beach itself. The staff service is nice and friendly. The only drawback is their English not so good, so you might have some difficulties asking them for service. Nevertheless, I highly recommend this hotel for everyone. It is really worth much more than what we had paid.

Great location, hearty breakfast, awesome beach!”

good breakfast choice, good timing from 6:00am to 10:30am, this is good if you booked a tour to phi-phi which usually starts at 7:00am you still get to eat your breakfast. I rented a car from the airport to get to the hotel, which took me about almost 2 hours to get there (cause I had to find my way) but i like to drive so thats cool. the hotel was easy to find, I looked up google maps street view first before I flew in. The room was good, has its own jaccuzi which was a bit dirty so my girlfriend and I decided to empty it instead and not use it, no big deal. the pool was a bit crowded in the morning, the other pool was deserted. pool bar I didnt notice if someone is serving there. no big deal better to go to the Bar in front of the hotel and brought my drinks to the beach. overall it was a good experience, I would book here again.and besides, its the cheapest across the area at least for me and my research.

Hotel was ok”

We came here for 4 nights after spending 4 nights staying at the Horizon hotel and spa in Patong and had high expectations of the Phuket Island View but we were disappointed. We were put in a room which seemed to be at least a 10 minute walk from the pools, restaraunt and reception. The hotel was located at least a 30 minute walk away from the centre of Karon. There were some bars close by but they weren't lively enough for our liking. The shower was positioned outwards rather than downwards so the water projected itself across the bathroom soaking everything in it's path

Comfortable Hotel ”

Stayed only one night here, but it was a pleasant experience. Room is comfortable, and the three pools are nice. The hotel is located at the further end of Karon beach (near towards Kata). This stretch of the beach is much quieter than Patong, which is a good thing for those who wants to get away from the bustling and maddening crowd. I personally feel Karon beach is much beautiful compared to Patong, Kata or Kata Noi. So, I wouldn't mind patronizing this hotel again.

One of the best in Phuket (Karon beach area)”

We stayed in three different resorts/hotels in Thailand in different areas. This was the best among those three especially the staff. Everywhere else the staff was very rude and non-helping. In this hotel the staff was very warm and forthcoming despite the language barrier. The rooms are nice but they can Be improved by including some more facilities like exhaust in the bathroom and an iron in the room. It is located right opposite a quiet and beautiful beach. There are utility stores, restaurants and a small market close to it. Would recommend this hotel to everyone planning to stay in the Karon beach area

House wife”

The Hotel has a great location right on the beach but trying to get a taxi from Patpong to Karon cost 400 bath and 400 bath to go to Patpong. From the airport to the Hotel it cost 800 bath. Not much night life in this area, good for relaxing. Rooms have very thin wall. One night some one next door was either beating up a person or running into the walls. I had to call the front desk and they told me they would call next door to see what the problem was. The next day I saw the police talking to one of the other customers, not really sure what happen next door. We were able to rent scooter from the Hotel for 250 baht per day which is about adverage. Food at the hotel was good, there are few other places to eat for less. Next door to the Hotel is a 7eleven which was good for buying what ever you need or forgotten. I would stay at this hotel again just in a room close to the front not in the back. It look like they were building bugalows which would be nice.

Big Resort, Right on the beach”

The Phuket island view resort is a huge complex right across the street from the beach. Its in a really7 tourist area though so nearby restaurants are way overpriced. However they have an awesome spread for breakfast buffet. The resort has threee nice swimming pools and helpful staff, even a crossing guard. We had a great time and went to the beach everyday.

rooms are elegent classic & cosy ”

friendly staffs, cosy rooms, beautiful pool view, only 200m from the beach. suitable for romantic couples or small families to enjoy the beuty and serenity of phuket island

Great move”

Only lasted 1 night at first accom. Found Phuket Island the next day. Very happy. Stayed in villa at a good price. Pools great, staff excellent. Right across from beach. Close to shops and local restaurants. We'll worth the move.

2 week in phuket”

Me and my girlfriend go to Phuket for two weeks and we stay in this hotel. the hotel is very nice and the staff was very good and they give very good service for us. And every morning we get enjoy and happy with great breakfast everydays and sometime we eat dinner in the hotel because they have cheap and good foods. If you want to go shopping or go somewhere it's not far from the hotel it's very very nice. And if you want to go and enjoy in the beach it's not far so, you just walk 1 min.from the hotel and the beach is o.k and you can get some massage i really recomend this hotel
