Near the traffic circle in Karon, the rooms are spacious, have air conditioning, free and fast wi-fi, balconies, lots of English TV channels and I think best of all, big soft mattresses that you'll have to tear yourself off of in the morning. The staff were helpful and served up a pretty good free breakfast, featuring unlimited bacon and French... More

We've stayed here for a week and thoroughly enjoyed every single day. We got an upgrade to a two-bedroom two-bathroom suite with a mountain view as we asked for two separate beds and I guess that is not a common option. The room was clean, all linen was in good condition, and housekeeping service was attentive to little details. We... More

This hotel was wonderful. Rooms are clean and spacious, breakfasts were great and the staff are super friendly. Very close to the beach and other attractions (Big Buddha and temples). Prices are reasonable. I would definitely stay there again and will encourage family and friends to do so. THANKS LOCAL MOTION!!!! More

Fantastic restaurant, friendly staff (especially the owner). Next door to Eco Divers Phuket who are the best Scuba Diving company in all of Phuket. Close to beach. Rooms are spacious and very reasonably priced. I wouldn't stay anywhere else. More

This hotel is unreal. You could not ask for a better location. Most everything you could want or need is within a few minute walk including the beach. Also very close to Big Buddha and some great temples. The hotel is very comfortable and clean with friendly staff, great food and amazing pricing. If you are a diver this is... More

Local Motion is in the Karon Beach area of Phuket. Karon Beach is a very long sandy beach with clear water but lots of rip tides. There are beach chair vendors everywhere that charge 100 baht a day, but we negotiated better prices for only a few hours of use. Plus there are some sand area where you can simply... More

The staff are excellent and the food is very good. It is close to the beach, bars, restaurants etc and has an excellent dive shop located downstairs. Eco Divers (run by... More
