Taxi Fare from Karon Beach to Patong Beach?

From my own research I’ve surmised that it is quite expensive to take taxi (or tuk tuk or otherwise) from Karon Beach to Patong Beach, perhaps as much as US or am I off? Is there any cheap way to get from Karon Beach to Patong Beach and vice versa?
Regarding Hungrymon’s comment I’m not worried about people staring at me. I’m Chinese so I think I might fit in better than you so I might give those buses a try.

I’m travelling to Phuket next month (June) and will stay in Banthai Beach Resort for the first few nights. I’ve booked the accommodation through asiarooms.com therefore airport transfer is not included in the reservation. I’ve emailed the hotel directly. They can arrange a hotel taxi service which will cost Baht700 per trip. Does Baht 700 sound reasonable from the airport to Patong beach? I’m wondering if it’ll be cheaper just to catch a local tuk tuk from the airport. Or what would be the best/cheapest way to get to the resort or just somewhere near it? Any info is very highly appreciated. Thanks!
