I had a really good experience at this resort. The swimming pools were fantastic, and my family loved the water slides and the kids' area. The staff was generally warm and helpful, but some of them seemed a bit rushed during busy hours. The rooms felt quite dated and could use some renovations. Overall, it was a decent stay, but a few improvements would go a long way.

This hotel has some fantastic features, especially the swimming pools and the excellent breakfast. The room I stayed in had a great view but definitely needed a bit of updating. While the location is convenient, with plenty of nearby restaurants and convenience stores, walking to the busier areas can be quite a trek, so taking a taxi is advisable. Overall, a solid choice but not without its quirks.

We had a lovely stay at the resort! The breakfast was fantastic, and the pool area was a highlight for our family. The location was convenient, just a short walk to the beach. However, the rooms could use an update, and we did encounter some issues with noise from smoking guests and some unruly behavior at the kids' pool. Overall, it was a great experience for families, but a few improvements would enhance it further.

Our stay at this resort was absolutely wonderful! From the warm welcome with tropical juice to the incredibly helpful staff, especially Nancy, it felt like a home away from home. The buffet breakfast was a highlight, offering a variety of delicious options. The lush greenery surrounding the resort created a beautiful atmosphere. The pool, complete with water slides, was the perfect entertainment for the kids, while the swim-up bar was ideal for the adults. It's conveniently located near the beach and local shops, making it easy to explore. We're definitely looking forward to returning!

I've stayed at the Orchid Resort and Spa multiple times, and it's always a delight. It's a short walk to the lovely Karon Beach, and the hotel has a fantastic pool area that's perfect for both kids and adults. While the food is generally tasty, I found the breakfast could use a bit of improvement in terms of variety. Also, though the staff were competent, I experienced some inconsistencies in customer service this time around. Overall, it's a great choice for families looking for a friendly place to unwind.
