Garden party at family-friendly resort across street from Karon Beach

Past guests have praised the friendly service at Thavorn Palm Beach Resort, which sits across the street from Karon Beach. Thavorn's 25 lush acres include five swimming pools and a $1.2 million (USD) orchid garden. Family-friendly Thavorn keeps kids entertained with four children's swimming areas, a kids corner and game room. All rooms include a private terrace or balcony with pool, garden or beach views. The hotel has earned the Green Leaf Award for its commitment to environmental conservation. 

Highlights

  • Older resort across the road from Karon Beach
  • 25 lush acres include five pools and $1.2 million orchid garden
  • Family-friendly property with kids corner, game room and four children's swimming areas

Rooms

The 209 rooms span three low-rise buildings and offer pool, garden or beach views. Rooms have a private terrace or balcony, mini-bar, bathrobe and TV with satellite channels. Standard rooms (301 square feet) are more simply furnished with white furniture, linens and walls and light blue curtains, bed skirts and upholstery. Deluxe rooms (344 square feet) and suites (817 square feet) have more space and character, with traditional Thai linens, teak furniture, and woodcarvings.  

Dining

King Prawn Seafood offers fresh seafood and Karon Beach views. Palm View Steak & Grill pairs prime steaks with vintage wines. Il Pirata cooks up Italian pastas, pizzas and risottos. Old Siam serves authentic Thai fare in a traditional open-air pavilion. Past guests praise the breakfast buffet at Windsong Café. The lobby bar has live entertainment.

Recreation

Five pools are spread out across the resort's 25 lush acres. Guests can work up a sweat in the modest fitness center or sauna and then relax poolside with a Thai massage. A kids' corner with children's pool caters to young guests, while a game room entertains teen guests with snooker and pool tables and darts. Thai cooking classes teach guests how to recreate authentic Thai dishes at home.

We were a group of seven ladies

We were a group of seven ladies who all had differing expectations. We were all happy with our room location and service from the staff was wonderful. There were times when it was difficult to relay what we were trying to say but they were polite and patient at all times. The rooms had a musty smell due to the high humidity but were clean. Facilities were good. We would be happy to stay there again.

The resort was absolutely beautiful - the staff were fantastic, friendly and helpful. Location was great too - away from the hustle and bustle of Patong but close enough for dinner & day trips.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The breakfast food was fantastic and other resturant food was of good quality. The pools were great, and grounds well kept. Staff were friendly and helpful. The only comment is that for such a great place the physical appearance and room are somewhat tired looked and need refurbishing. But nevertheless still a great stay.

The grounds are lovely. The pools

The grounds are lovely. The pools are fantastic. The service is good. The rooms are spacious and clean. There were little touches such as fresh flowers and a fruit plate. Breakfast is delicious. The free shuttle to Patong was handy. We really enjoyed our stay.

Overall an excellent hotel venue

Overall an excellent hotel venue with superb pool facilities set within landscaped and beautiful gardens and with an excellent location across Karon Beach near affordable restaurants and bars. I stayed at this hotel during low season and received fantastic special rates which was certainly value for money, exceeding my expectations.
