“The Old Phuket Karon Beach Resort charms with its Sino-Portuguese architecture, a refreshing counterpoint to typical beach resorts. Its dual wings cater to different tastes-the Sino Wing for a taste of history, the Serene Wing for modern indulgence. I appreciate the resort's thoughtful design, placing guests within a short stroll of Karon Beach and its dining scene, while still offering on-site escapes like multiple pools and diverse restaurants.”
