A recommendation for anyone going to Phuket and looking for somewhere to stay. I have just returned from a week at Karon beach and stayed at Baan Karon. Very clean rooms, a/c, TV, mini bar, balcony, cleaned daily, swimming pool. 500 baht per night. The place is very quiet though so good deals can be made on almost everything (with the exception of tuk tuks )
