The resort is large enough to spend the day moving between breakfast, pools, activities and the beach.

RESORT LAYOUT

Your room wing changes the whole stay.

01 / DISTANCE

Ask which wing you will be in

The lobby, breakfast venue, pools, beach gate and sports facilities are spread across the grounds.

02 / MAP

Get the current map at check-in

Facility names and renovation zones can change. Use the map provided at check-in as the final reference.

03 / SHUTTLE

Save the internal shuttle details

Ask how to call the resort shuttle and where it stops before you start moving around the property.

A FULL RESORT DAY

You do not need to rush breakfast.

MORNING

Breakfast currently runs until 11:00

A later breakfast makes it easier to start slowly before choosing a nearby pool.

AFTERNOON

Choose one or two pools

The five pools are spread out. A pool near your room plus the Ocean Beach Club side is usually enough for one stay.

EVENING

Check the weekly programme

Fire shows, fitness sessions and other activities vary by date. Match the day to the current schedule.

ROOMS

Sea view can mean several different angles.

VIEW

Ask for a high, unobstructed floor

Depending on the wing and floor, a sea-view room may face the water directly or offer a partial or panoramic angle.

SPACE

Rooms range from 44㎡ to 170㎡

Check occupancy, bed setup and lounge access against the exact room name rather than assuming from the view category.

CONSTRUCTION

Ask about the assigned renovation zone

The hotel announced phased work from 10 April to 1 December 2026. Reconfirm the active areas and replacement venues before arrival.

BEACH AND ACTIVITIES

The public beach is just across the road.

KARON BEACH

It is not a private hotel beach

Cross the road from the resort to reach public Karon Beach. Follow lifeguard advice when red flags are displayed.

SPORTS

Check the weekly activity list

The programme may include tennis, pickleball, yoga, Muay Thai and aqua aerobics. Confirm reservations, equipment and fees.

FIRE SHOW

Currently listed for Wednesday and Saturday

Ocean Beach Club currently lists the fire show at 19:00 on Wednesday and Saturday. Recheck the schedule for your stay.
