Karon Hotel-room Rates For Everyone

When you fly over Phuket to get to Karon from other parts of country you will soon notice how blessed the island is with lush vegetation and greenery. In fact, nearly two thirds of the country is forests, and includes rubber and oil plantations. With this kind of statistic its hard to imagine those popular beach resorts of Karon and Patong. These beaches lie on the west side of the island while a mountain range runs up the middle from North to South, the highest of which is Mai Thao Song (The Twelve Cains Mountain) at 529 meters a fare hike for your average trailblazer.
About the same size as Singapore, Phuket and Karon claims the largest island in Thailand with a status of 543 square kilometres. With its pearl shape, set in the emeralds of the Andaman Sea, you can understand why this island really is the Pearl of the Sea.
A history in time will tell you the story of Phukets true uninspiring history of few battles and few dramas to speak of, the Burmese came and went, the Dutch were there and inevitably the Chinese came to work the mines and plantations the influence of which still survives today.
Rubber still remains one of the main industries of the island, the other tourism. Thailand has become the biggest rubber producer in the world while the tourism coming in a close second, attracts thousands of visitors to the resort region.
Rooms on the Horizon
Steeling away from the mountains and plantations, the beautiful palm fringed beaches of golden white sands still captures the imagination on those holiday brochures designs, left on the shelves of waiting rooms in train stations and subways in one of our dull gray cities around the world. Seeing is believing, and just going there will make you realize that not even a brochure can capture the true element of natural beauty.
Room with a View
Tiny palm coves inundate the coastline where some of the most luxurious hotel rooms look out onto an azure sea of calm and beauty. This is the kind of room view you can expect from the hotels here. Karon beach spans 6km and is famous for those white squeaky sands. When it comes to rooms of course, with Karon beach comes the highly rated Horizon Karon Beach Resort and Spa located at the southern end of the beach. This resort set on 16000 sqm is surrounded by forest vegetation of palms and coconut trees. Room rates are very reasonable here and since the hotel is levitated to a slightly elevated position, room views can boast some great sea view sights.

The resort itself offers free scheduled transport to Patong. And if you still have room, there are marine activities such as diving and snorkelling, day trip excursions and as earlier mentioned trekking and trail blazing.
