Mai Khao sits in the north of Phuket, where a long sandy beach lies close to the airport and the coast feels quieter than the busy beaches of the west. Sea turtles come ashore here to nest, and the Mai Khao Marine Turtle Foundation, 5.2 km away, works to protect them. Coriacea Boutique Resort stands in this part of the island, close to the sand, and the rhythm here is slower than in the resort towns of the west coast.

Naiyang National Park, 2 km away, protects a stretch of coastline with beaches, and the Airplane Viewpoint at Maikhao Beach is an easy stop for watching planes come in low over the sand. The Ni Yang Night Market, 2.9 km away, is a good place for an evening meal from the food stalls, and Wat Mongkonwaram, a temple 3 km away, is a short drive from the resort. For a livelier beach, Patong Beach is 23.6 km away, with Bangla Road for nightlife.

Getting around is easiest by taxi or hire car, since the main beaches and sights of the island are a drive away. A good day could start with a long walk on the sand, continue with a visit to the turtle foundation and a late lunch, and end with a drive south to Patong for dinner and the nightlife of Bangla Road. Free parking is on site for guests who drive.
