BanTonRuk Takuapa is in Khao Lak, on the Andaman coast of Phangnga province, where a strip of beaches runs between forested hills and the sea. Life in the area is largely local, with small markets and traditional shophouses around Takua Pa, and most of the appeal lies in the beaches and national parks that surround Khao Lak. Khao Lak is a common base for trips to the Similan Islands, which are reached by boat from the coast.

The Takua Pa Food Market is 750 m away, and the old town is a short drive further on. Bangsak Beach lies 13.2 km away, and Khao Lak-Lam Ru National Park, with its forest trails and waterfalls, is 30.1 km away. Similan National Park, 35.8 km away, is reached by boat and is known for its islands, diving and snorkelling. Having your own vehicle makes these trips easy, and the property offers free parking for guests who drive.

A good day could start at Bangsak Beach and continue to the waterfalls and trails of Khao Lak-Lam Ru National Park. Boat trips to the Similan Islands are seasonal, as the national park closes for several months during the rainy season, so the islands are best planned around the calendar.
