Karon Beach Resort hotel???

[Baltic]

Hi all BMs,

please kindly inform me , how is current situation with hotel Karon Beach Resort?
As it is directly on Karon Beach in Kata side (southern) end, I suppose that it is severely damaged.
In hotel information page http://sawadee.com/tsunami/hotels.htm
I can find information in RED color about this nice hotel.

Waiting for Your information when possible - this is absolutely not urgent request, but should help me a bit, I have booked room in this hotel for 2 weeks beginning Feb.28,2005. If travel agency only allows, I will definitely arrive and make our beloved Phuket a bit more tourist crowdy .

Happy New Year 2005 to all Board Members
(it is still 6 pm in my country, but New Year 2005 will begin shortly)!!!
