The Phuket Orchid Resort is one of the largest resorts on Phuket and it offers five hundred and twenty five rooms to its guests. This wonderful three star Karon holiday resort is situated in a village style setting and guests can enjoy their holiday to the fullest at the Phuket Orchid Resort and Spa. If you are looking for a large resort with plenty of facilities but are on a tight budget then I would highly recommend this resort in Karon Beach as it offers great value for money.

The Phuket Orchid Resort is located only a short walk from the beautiful and quiet beach of Karon and is located in an area of Karon which is known for its many small shops, restaurants and bars. If you are to spend your vacation at the Phuket Orchid Resort & Spa then you will be able to find all that you need within walking distance.

Phuket Orchid Resort Room Types

The Phuket Orchid Resort is one of the biggest resorts in the Karon beach area but what is so nice about this resort is that all of the 525 rooms are spread out over a large property in what best can be described as a holiday village setting. The rooms are all clean and spacious but don’t have a very modern feel to it as you would find at many of the newer Phuket Resorts and recently renovated properties. However the relatively inexpensive cost of booking a room at the Phuket Orchid Resort certainly justifies you spending your vacation at this hotel in Karon beach.

There are three different room types at the Phuket Orchid hotel and they include the following room categories:

Superior Rooms

Family Rooms

Pool Access Rooms

All rooms at the Phuket Orchid Resort & Spa come equipped with the following amenities and facilities: Private balconies, international direct dial telephone, international television programming, fully stocked mini bar and in room safe.

Phuket Orchid Resort & Spa Facilities

Considering that the Phuket Orchid Resort and Spa is only a three star resort, this Karon resort offers an outstanding selection of facilities to its resort guests.

Phuket Orchid Resort Restaurants & Bars

The only thing that surprises me about this Karon resort is that it only has a few food and beverage venues. You would normally expect there to be more options at a resort of this size.

The restaurants and bars which are located at the Phuket Orchid Resort include as follows:

Pool Side Restaurant – This restaurant is the ideal place to visit if you feel like a snack or a small bite to eat during the day time. The Pool Side Restaurant of the Phuket Orchid Resort is open daily from 12:00 until 18:00.

Le Bayon Restaurant – if you enjoy an all you can eat buffet then you certainly should give Le Bayon Restaurant a try. This restaurant is also where all the hotel guests enjoy their breakfast buffet in the morning. Opening hours of this restaurant are daily from 06:00 until 22:00.

Il Ponte’s Italian Restaurant – If you are looking for a good and affordable Italian restaurant in Karon beach then Il Ponte’s Italian restaurant would be an excellent option for you. This Phuket Orchid Resort restaurant is open daily from 12:00 until 18:00 and from 18:30 until 21:30.
