Baan Paea sits in Ratsada, a neighbourhood of Phuket Town, the provincial capital. The town has a more everyday feel than the beach resorts, with shophouses, markets and street life, and so it is a quieter base in town than the beach resorts, with the market a short walk away.

Thawisaman Market is within walking distance, and Wat Sam Kong, a pagoda, is nearby. The Phuket Butterfly Garden & Insect World is also close, while Patong Beach is 8.2 km away and the Big Buddha statue is 11.6 km away. Phuket International Airport is 23 km away, and the bus station is 2.7 km away.

A good day could start at the market, continue to Wat Chalong, one of the island's best-known temples, 8.4 km away, and end on Patong Beach, the island's best-known beach and nightlife area. Most trips from here are made by road, so a car or taxi makes the outlying beaches and temples easy to reach, and the island's main roads connect the town with the western beaches and the southern coast. Karon, Kata and Nai Harn beaches are farther out along the island, a longer drive from the town, and they are good choices for a day spent on the sand.
