Chaweng is the main beach area of Koh Samui, a long sandy bay with a lively strip of cafés, bars and shops behind the sand. It suits guests who want beach life and evening activity close at hand, and Chaweng Buri Resort is in this part of the island, with the beach and the evening market close by.

Chaweng Yai Beach is 450 m away, and the Chaweng Night Market is 200 m from the resort, a place for street food and evening shopping. Samui Airport is 2.2 km away, and Pagoda Khao Hua Jook, a Buddhist pagoda, is also close by. Further away, the Big Buddha, 4.7 km from the resort, is one of the island's best-known sights, while Nora Beach is another beach nearby. The Central Festival Samui shopping centre is 400 m away.

A good day could start on Chaweng Yai Beach in the morning, continue to the Big Buddha in the afternoon, and end at the night market. The Samui Crocodile Farm and the Samui Elephant Sanctuary near Bophut offer other ideas for a day out, and Nora Beach gives you a change of scene for an afternoon swim. Both the beach and the night market are close enough to combine in one day.
