Bang Thao is a quieter stretch of Phuket's Andaman coast, where villas sit back from the long sandy sweep of Bang Tao Beach and the pace is calmer than in the busier resort areas such as Patong. Guests who want a private base away from the crowds find a pool and a garden to spend the day in. The villa is reached by road, and the island's main roads connect the area to the rest of Phuket.

Patong, the busiest resort and nightlife area on the island, is 11.2 km away, and Phuket International Airport is 11.8 km from the villa. Further afield, the Big Buddha stands on a hilltop 19.8 km away, a large white statue of the Buddha, and Phuket FantaSea, a cultural theme park with an evening show, is 6.4 km away. Wat Thep Krasattri, a temple, is also close by, and the night market is 1.6 km from the villa.

A day here can begin with a walk on Bang Tao Beach, then take in the Big Buddha on its hilltop, and end with the evening show at Phuket FantaSea. Getting around the island usually means a car, scooter or taxi, so it is worth arranging your transport before you explore.
