Khao Thong hotel rooms a the Independent

"Great beach facilities. Fantastic pool villa! Quick and friendly staff"

"Enjoyed the buffet breakfast. Daily room cleaning. Friendly staff, very attentive. Near a lot of restaurants and shopping. Walking distance to beach. Small fridge in room. They have laundry service available for extra fee."

"We loved our room and the view it had. Their bathrooms are the kind you wish you have in your dream home! Their staff is extremely friendly and kind. The Olympic pool was fantastic, although we didn’t spent as much time there since we were exploring the famous beaches in the area. The highlight from the breakfast is the fruit selection and that they make eggs to order in any style of your choosing. It’s a car ride to Ao Nang and there aren’t many things to do around the hotel. Note that hotel gives you beach access through a beach club across the street. They only provide bean bags and there are better beaches in the area but this beach was still good for a walk. Overall we loved Varana and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. It was a great find and a highlight of our trip."

"Yes"

"Location was great - close to the beach and walking street, room was clean -well laid out and beds were comfortable with a nice sized balcony. We were in a quad room for 4 people and worried about how tight the space might be, but there was ample room to move around and enough space and seating for all 4 of us on the balcony. Two large beautiful pools to enjoy, the roof top infinity pool had a lovely view. Had lunch at the rooftop restaurant and the food was very very good, would recommend. There is a water refill station in the lobby with cold drinking water which was well used by our group. Complimentary breakfast buffet with our booking, but we didn't get up in time to sample. Overall a positive experience, would stay here again and recommend to friends and family. "
