The Pool at Marina Phuket Resort

"Two of the best restaurants in Karon are on-site: Sala Thai overlooks a landscaped pool and serves dishes such as puja, a fried crabmeat dish, and roast duck curry"

"Accommodation is in a/c cottages – Garden View options are old-fashioned and plain, but Jungle View versions are very appealing – and there’s a pool, wi-fi and the prettily located On the Rock restaurant"

"Half of the jungle rooms around the pool have all the latest high-tech amenities, including minicomputers and DVD players; note that some older rooms don't have certain amenities, like TVs"

"The large lagoon pool is an on-site highlight and there's also direct access to the sea from the property"
