Patong is one of Phuket's best-known beach towns, a lively resort area with restaurants, bars and night markets around a wide sandy bay. Anona Beachfront Phuket Resort is 50 m from Patong Beach, so the sand is a short walk away and the rest of the resort area is easy to reach on foot. Street-food stalls and massage shops line the beach road in the evenings.

Bangla Road, the street of bars and nightlife, is 650 m away, and Jungceylon Shopping Center is also nearby. Further afield, Karon Beach is a short drive along the coast, and the Big Buddha, a large statue on a hilltop, is 7.2 km away with views across the island. Phuket FantaSea, the large entertainment complex with cultural shows, lies 7.5 km away, and Chaithararam Temple, also called Wat Chalong, is one of the island's best-known temples.

A typical day could start with a swim at Patong Beach, continue with a drive to the Big Buddha or Wat Chalong, and finish with dinner and a stroll along Bangla Road. Phuket International Airport is 24.7 km away, and it is the usual arrival point for flights to the island. Patong Beach, Bangla Road and the hilltop Buddha make a full day out, with the nightlife in the evening.
