Nonnee Hotel Kata Beach Phuket, hotel in Karon Beach

Situated in Kata Beach, 1.6 km from Kata Beach, Nonnee Hotel Kata Beach Phuket features accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a shared lounge.

It’s immaculately clean, the pool is spotless and we saw it being cleaned daily. Our room was tidied everyday with new towels provided, should we need. They provide you a beach towel and a shower towel each. It’s social, but without being a party spot. Travellers tend to hang around the pool in the day and there is a free pool table to use, with day beds to chill on. It has a good mix of backpackers and holiday goers and the overall atmosphere was laid back. It’s worth to know that Nonnee is about a 15 min walk from Kata central, however for us this was a plus as Kata was chaotic and too touristy for us. There was ample restaurants and bars along the road of Nonnee that were cheap and tasty and walkable (including a 7/11). If you’re coming to Phuket, this place is a must! You can easily get to better beaches like Kata Noi and Freedom Beach on a scooter. If you fancy a trip to Patong for the nightlife, you can easily taxi or grab there and back.

JB House Patong, hotel in Karon Beach

Situated in Patong Beach, within 2.8 km of Kalim Beach and 1.2 km of Jungceylon Shopping Center, JB House Patong provides accommodation with free WiFi throughout the property.

Very close to the beach! 5min walk to Bangla Road but far enough from the noise. Night markets also 15min away with good food. Room was clean and comfortable with a laundromat downstairs which was handy.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The budget room was excellent as it gave you hotel quality at hostel price. Had an amazing pool and the room was cleaned every day for you. There was a restaurant in the tree tops at the hotel which served very nice and affordable food.

    The property is set in a great location on a quieter road but still only 10 minutes or so from Karon and all its facilities. It’s also very clean and modern touches, and we loved the private pool. The beds were super comfy and they provided lots of towels. They also saw we were travelling with children on our arrival and a man came back with some balls and toys for them to play with in the pool which I thought was nice. The staff were friendly and the villa felt very safe too.

    Excellent and budget accommodation option on Karon beach. The room is very spacious, has everything you need (refrigerator, safe, beach towels, powerful air conditioner). Cleaning is daily. It takes about 7 minutes to walk to the beach. The owners are very friendly, helped with ordering a taxi. A great option for your money, I will recommend it to my friends! Thank you for your hospitality!
