Being long time returning guests to LeMeridien Phuket Karon Beach, we particularly like the staff members, always helpful, polite and respectful. We always feel like home on each of our stay, this time is no exception. Varieties of foods are also good and cover most of everyone’s taste: Thai, Japanese, Italian or Bbq on the beach.
Although most of guests rooms start to age, the resort has rwcently finished parts of its refurbishments incl. Main pool to reset its age. Security and safe reason to stay with LeMeridien Karon beach are also key when planning your stay and the exclusive “private oceal beach”

Great hotel

The hotel is beautiful, and has its own private beach. It’s not convenient to walk anywhere except for the few shops on smal road leading into the hotel - but that is because it’s tucked away in a beautiful area. The staff was very professional and very nice.

MAJOR renovations underway which means most restaurants CLOSED and reduced menu options. This was disappointing we only enjoyed the pizza and the BBQ. The rest of the meals not great. Also less activities on offer. We loved the beach the pool and the 2 bedroom apartment with a lovely view. Might return once renovations are complete. Staff lovely - nice cocktails,

Excellent hotel, great amenities and very helpful staff. I usually give this property an Excellent rating, however this last visit I experienced a lot of noise during the evening hours from guest returning to their rooms. A suggestion would be to place signs indicating quiet hours so guest that are returning to their rooms will not awake guest that are sleeping.

Private Oasis, Exceptional Service

We experienced exceptional service from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. The private beach and location was an oasis away from bustling traffic and securely situated between mountains on either side. The onsite Japanese restaurant was excellent and served Michelin level dishes with generous portions.

Extremely dated - a relic of the 80s

NOT a five star and shouldnt be advertised as such. Extremely dated - a relic of the 80s. Rooms are very tired. Our beds were creaking and extremely uncomfortable. The carpet in the corridors was stained and the whole floor smelt musty. I understand that it is about to undergo a renovation, but in the meantime, the hotel has no right to be charging the prices it is. What aggrieves me the most is that I paid more for this dump, than I did for the the other pallatial hotels we stayed in whilst in Thailand. The service was mediocre and nothing close to what you would expect from a five star hotel. The price I paid through Hotels.com was also higher than the hotel's own website, but that was still far too much. The beach was however very beautiful but such a shame it was attached to such a horrible hotel.

This is the first time I got refused late check out by any hotels for a reason that is unexceptable (I had travel to many countries all over the world ) .

How often does a hotel book a particular room number ahead of time other then maybe an executive room or a presidential suite? I have always love the hotel that’s why I keep

Very nice property clean and with the best best beach in Phuket . Water was calm and clean . A lot of dining options from the beach bar , the buffet Japanese restaurant and a lot more . Best part they had smoking section in one of the open restaurants. Main chef Daniel was on top of everything . We would see him in the morning breakfast buffet and the night all over the restaurant. He stopped and greeted us made us feel at home . Staff were superb very nice and helpful. Place was extremely clean . Loved Le Meridien will definitely like to go again

Pools are nice though not heated (which is standard for the area i think). Only con was that the room is quite dated and the bed creaked every time i turned in it. Bathrooms are updated but not well kept. An update could really help.

Booked an oceanfront suite. Staff was very welcoming at check in. Suite was beautiful with wonderful views of the beach and water!

Cons
- outdated furniture.
-the pillows smelt old too
- always hosting different meetings. Wasnt really a problem for us because we were out all the time, but most of the restaurants would be blocked off for conferences alot while we were there
-alot of lizards and other bugs and critters around
-the resort photographers were terrible. Stay away from them.

Pros
-we loved our suite
-food was very good from the few times we indulged
-water pressure was great
-private clean beach
-very easy and convenient walking down and grabbing a taxi
-most of the staff was amazing

Overall had a great time while we were there

The property is infested with insects, bugs and little lizards.
Maintenance level is bad. One of the rooms had leaks that maintenance had to come deal with.
They did not inform us that the property is under construction. Construction noise all the time, visually the pool area is limited because construction is at the main area of the pools right in the middle of the property.
They held a wedding that was extremely loud in the morning and the whole day - woke us up to extremely loud drums banging and horns early morning on Saturday morning.
We will be looking for a refund and compensation.
When we complained the hotel wanted to offer us late checkout - when we said it was not enough, they were only willing to offer us to comp one of the meals of $80.
Ridiculous response.

I recently stayed at the hotel and found the rooms to be old but well maintained. The restaurants, food, and staff were excellent. However, there were a few drawbacks to my stay.

Firstly, the pool was not filtering properly, with pumps placed around it, which was inconvenient. Additionally, there was ongoing renovation work that we were only informed about after making the reservation. Although they did inform us ahead of time, the noise was quite disruptive and often detracted from the tranquility of the beach.

One significant issue was the lack of complimentary water in the lobby or at the bar. Guests were required to pay $3 for a cup of water, which was disappointing. While they did leave water in the room, it felt unprofessional.

The beach itself was nice, but there was no entertainment provided, making it quite dull. Although the city is just a 10-minute taxi ride away, the hotel lacked nightlife, leaving it quite dead at night. Even during the day, there was not much to do, as there were no staff to lead any entertainment activities despite having the necessary tools.

Overall, it was a pleasant stay, but I wouldn’t return due to the aforementioned issues.

Why ‘Le Meridien Phuket Beach’ is a good choice

We’ve been here quite a few times over the past 2 decades, and it is still a good place to be; friendly staff, good food, private beach (not that common in Phuket) and great location overall close to Patong beach for a night out. It’s a big hotel and you’ll have to deal with the noisy crowd over breakfast and especially the not so nice beach bed hunting very early morning. If Le Meridien could find a way to avoid this (and somehow penalise those that never show up during the day), it would be a truly superb place.

Our family started vomiting a few times and having diarrhoea after having the hotel’s buffet breakfast in our first night of stay. We didn’t really enjoy our stay as we were totally exhausted due to the unclean food. Although the buffet food were enclosed on each tray in the open restaurant, we saw birds flew by and feeding on the buffet’s tongs & spoons. It is really unhygienic when these tongs and spoons are used by many customer who aren’t aware that the birds actually came by. We have been compensated with just a $10 waiver on our medication for food poisoning. Will never stay in this hotel again.

Excellent is the word. Hotel was a little secluded which was what i wanted. Able to call for grab whenever we needed. Otherwise a 10 mins walk will take you to the mainroad.
From the moment we arrived till the day we left we were pampered and looked after at every moment.
Smiling faces with greeting each time we passed any employee.
Very helpful,kind and considerate staff members.
Our aircond stopped working on our second night. The technician came checked and changed the motor immediately.
Breakfast was the best i have ever had. The variety and taste was good in most of the food. They even took orders for iced coffee during breakfast.
The place was quiet. Beautiful beach but you cant swim due to the weather and waves.
The most pleasantly shocking experience was when we requested to leave our luggage in the hotel after check out as our flight was at 7pm, they offered us a place to shower and change before leaving. Even told us to use the facilities until we leave to airport. Overall a 5 star service hotel.
Will definitely be back here.

Amazing location with not just a private secluded beach of its own with no others, but the property is on the beach (so no walking downhills or long access points to get to beach).

Our grand suite for a family of 4 was 3000 sq ft - extremely attractively designed and was again right on the beachfront. The restaurants and bars on the property are awesome so you don’t have to go hunting for food for the family looking for good places or deals.

The hospitality was truly amazing. All in all this quickly became of our best family vacations.

We will go back here again for sure!

This was my first time in Phuket, and I spent a lot of time researching hotels. So glad I went with my first choice being Le Meridian because it was perfect. Safe and quiet area, easy to take taxis to popular areas like patong for a reasonable rate, and also had a convenient store and massage places down the street. The hotel is slightly dated but extremely clean with great service! Huge pools, both family friendly and for adults (there’s a massive lap pool on one side). The breakfast buffet was included and delicious. My favorite part was the private beach-SO CLEAN! I’m a huge beach person and was so grateful to have a gorgeous beach right there on site. Especially after seeing how polluted patong beach was. I would definitely stay here again! Can’t wait to go back
