Skipper's
Completely Re-built from the ground up with new furniture in the bar and guest rooms. The bar now has a massive 80inch TV and fully functioning kitchen that serves breakfast at a low cost and all day bar menu of Aussie snacks that cannot be found anywhere else in Thailand. We also have a pool table for free use at anytime while the bar is open.
We are a small family run guesthouse and invite you to become part of the family environment that we have created. Everyone of our guests leave feeling like they have stayed with old family friends.
We are located approximately 300 meters from Karon Beach and surrounded by the inner city of Karon. Unlike other comparable guest houses we are in the heart of everything and within a quick walk to the beach. There is no need for a scooter when you stay here as you can walk everywhere.
