Hidden gem in Karon
Good affordable accommodation, close to everything. Good breakfast options. Whether it’s the beach, bars, or nightlife, all in walking distance. Karon Centre a longer walk, about 2km. Kata beach about 2km in opposite direction. Just remember to bring your own soap. There is a 7-Eleven very close by if you need anything. There’s always a 7-Eleven close by wherever you are 😄. Steve, Lek and the crew are very helpful for all your needs.

Simple
You get what you pay for.Simple guesthouse in a quiet part of Karon.About 5 minute walk to Karon beach,and about the same to a few bars.Dissapointed in being charged 600 baht for a later checkout,about 3 hours which was more than i paid for an entire night.

Great value and location
The staff is fantastic, they will help you out with anything you need. Good food is all around. They rent scooters there for a good price. The food and drinks are good and the price is reasonable. The beach is only a 5 min walk away. The room was big, clean and had daily housekeeping.

Good Experience
I stayed at the hotel with my sister and we arrived pretty late at night. The desk girl was nice to show us to our room and made sure we were comfortable. The room was so clean but the electric outlets did not work so we had to unplug the fridge to charge our phones. The balcony was superb and it has a nice view of some hills if you stay in the rooms closer to the main road. The hotel provides motorbike rental and you don't have to give them your passport as they already have a copy of it during check in. Overall, it was a good experience and I am glad that I stayed at Pineapple Guesthouse.

Worked great for us!
Myself, my wife, and our two sons had two rooms for six nights here while in Phuket for some diving. (Sharkey Scuba - the absolute best!). The hotel is well managed and well kept. Everything was comfortable and as described; clean, good air conditioning, good sized rooms, and great service (the beds are a bit hard but no worse than anywhere else in Thailand). I think it depends on what you are looking for, but we loved the location as well. It's located on the main road but it was not loud. We enjoyed the really cheap food at the street carts and a little bit cheaper local restaurants as well. It's a 10 minute walk down to Karon beach and you can walk to anything in the area, including Kata Beach, with ease. I suppose we liked being away from the highest tourist traffic area. The hotel provided a good taxi service for us to and from the airport and offered some great tips about how to navigate the area.

I very much enjoyed my stay here. The staff and owners we'reincredibly nice and went out of their way to be helpful and accommodating. The hostel is only a 5 or 10 minute walk from Karon Beach and countless local restaurants, shops, and bars. I would absolutely recommend this hostel to a friend.

Great location near Karon Beach
Looking for a place to relax and enjoy the beach for a few days, we found the Pineapple Guesthouse the perfect spot. The beach was a short walk away with shops and restaurants along the way. Kata Noi was within walking distance for us so we didn't have to rely on Tuk Tuks to get around. All around enjoyable stay. Would stay at Pineapple Guesthouse again.

Siisti ja rauhallinen Guesthouse
Siisti perusguesthouse, jota pitää avulias Steve. Palvelu ystävällistä ja avuliasta, saa aamiaista tarvittaessa. Siivous on päivittäin. Ilmastointi on, jääkaappi on. Lyhyt matka Karonin rannalle, ravintoloita yms kauppoja on lähistöllä. Öisin rauhallista. Tulisin toistekin, rahalle saa vastinetta, jos ei viiden tähden hotellia kaipaa.

Hyvä sijainti hinta laatu suhteessa
Sekä Karonin että Katan ranta kävelyn päässä! Viereiseltä kadulta paikallisbussilla eli songtaolla Phuketin keskustaan ja kauppakeskus Central Festifaliin ja/tai BigC:en helposti ja edullisesti! Henkilöstö auttavaista joka tilanteessa! Hyviä ja edullisia ruokapaikkoja monia ympäristössä, samoin tietenkin massagetarjontaa! Liikenteen melu pääkadulta kyllä kuuluu, mutta hiljenee puoleenyöhön mennessä! Kolme viikkoa meni mukavasti, eikä tarvinnut tehdä vaihtoa!

Hotelli oli siisti, aamupala tarjonta oli hyvä, henkilökunta mukavaa kuten yleensä Thaimaassa on. Rantaan noin puoli kilometriä, keskustaan 2-3 kilometriä. Suosittelen matkaajille jotka eivät kaipaa luxusta, joille riittä hyvä, edullinen, rauhallinen majoitus. Itse voin hyvinkin mennä uudelleen.

All'arrivo l'impatto e' stato orribile, nella specie di hall tutto in disordine, panni accatastati dappertutto, scarpe e ciabatte sparse ovunque, tanto da pensare di andare via. quando mi hanno dato la camera un po mi sono ripreso dallo shoc, una camera decente abbastanza spaziosa. Comunque ci sono rimasto per l'intero periodo.

Приятное пребывание в "Pineapple guesthouse"
Проживала в "Pineapple guesthouse" 2 недели. Брала номер без балкона с выходом на внутренний двор. В номере тихо, комфортно, чисто и уютно. Уборка каждый день. В номере есть холодильник, чайник, чашки и ложки. Кондиционер установлен очень удачно: не над кроватью. Кровать большая и удобная, на колёсиках - можно двигать как удобно и куда удобно. Расположение очень выгодное: до пляжа Карон средним шагом 5 минут. За 20 минут можно дойти до Каты. Рядом с отелем много лавочек, ресторанов, обменников, аптек. Также рядом есть 7/11. Соседнее здание с отелем ресторан русской кухни "Питер". Огромное спасибо персоналу отеля. Очень приветливые и добродушные люди. Мне очень понравилось.

Pineapple Guesthouse oli erinomaisella paikalla pienen kävelymatkan päässä rannasta ja ostosmahdollisuuksista. Huoneessa oli kaikki tarvittava ja se pidettiin siistinä. Yöt sai nukuttua hyvin, koska alue oli rauhallinen. Mukava vaihtoehto aamupalalistalla oli ns. terveellisempi aamupala johon kuului mysliä, maustamatonta jogurttia, hedelmiä ja kahvi, tykkäsin :) Voimme lämpimästi suositella paikkaa.
