Concierge "The Marina is one of the smaller and simpler resorts on the island, and it's the kind of place where Thai hospitality is keenly felt."
Rough Guide "Enjoying both a very central location, backing on to the beach and just steps from restaurants and shops, and a luxuriously spacious and secluded tropical garden in a former coconut plantation."
Fodor's "This surprisingly quiet option has its cottages sprawling over a lush hillside that separates Karon from Kata Beach." Full review
