ball dip Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 i used to live in karon, but that was a long while ago, look behind the temple in karon, nice little hill top bungalow's and also apartments too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmitch Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Karon/Kata sounds right for you. The larger hotels are a bit overpriced at that time but the prices at Villareal Heights, which is consistently near the top of the Tripadvisor rankings, are very reasonable at that time. It's quite a way from the beach but Phil the owner takes exceptionable care of his guests. Have a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jasun Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 I think Karon is on the money, or possibly Kamala. Both have quiet beaches, affordable accommodation and enough bars to keep you interested. Kata is nice, but a bit quiet at night and the hills can be a bit tough to negotiate with an 18 month old.

beechbum Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Either Kata or Karon will suit your needs to a tee, loads of guest houses or hotels to choose from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehaigh Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Kamala would fit your needs too i think but nothing wrong with your first choice really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacktor27 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) I'm going at a similar time with my wife 3 year old boy and my parents about the same age. We have booked centara karon resort. It was a little over your budget but as its Chinese new year everything is a little more expensive. I researched a fair bit and think karon sounded like the right mix of quietness but still a few drinking holes etc. Edited January 29, 2015 by jacktor27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
