Feedback about Paradox Resort Phuket from previous guests about their experience
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Paradox Resort Phuket offers guests a memorable stay with its prime location near Karon Beach, only a short 5-minute walk away, with its shops and restaurants. The resort features spacious and newly renovated rooms, some offering stunning beach views from their balconies, perfect for enjoying the sunset. The lush tropical garden and large pool with a swim-up bar create a relaxing atmosphere; though some found the main pool area's system a bit selective. Guests can choose from various dining options, and the hotel also provides amenities such as umbrellas and pool towels.

I totally loved how the staff helped with coffee during breakfast! fon at the dining area deserves a special mention (she was an angel!). the hotel is huge. Buggies are there to zip you around, such a plus. plus, the location is amazing, near a clean beach!
i think placing a permanent guard at the gate accessing privately hired vehicles is needed.
