Patong is one of Phuket's liveliest beach towns, with restaurants, bars, massage shops and street-food stalls lining the main roads behind the sand. Di Pantai sits 1.3 km from Patong Beach, and Kalim Beach is 800 m away. The beach is the centre of the town, and the streets around it stay busy into the evening. The beach runs along the edge of the town, and its streets are busy from dusk onward.

Bangla Road, 2.6 km away, is the street where the nightlife gathers, with bars, live music and crowds into the night. Phuket FantaSea, 4.5 km away, is a theme park with an evening cultural show, and the Jungceylon shopping centre has shops and restaurants close to the beach. Taxis are available for trips along the coast, and the resort's shuttle runs from the hotel to Patong Beach.

A day here could start with a swim at Patong Beach, then head to the Big Buddha, a large Buddha statue on a hilltop 10.2 km away, before coming back to Bangla Road for dinner and the evening. Wat Chalong, one of the island's best-known temples, is also worth a visit from Patong. The night market is also a good place for the evening, and it is a good place to try local street food.
