Eden Beach Khao Lak Resort & Spa stands on Khaolak Beach in Khao Lak, a coastal area of Phangnga province on Thailand's Andaman coast. The beach faces the Andaman Sea, with forested hills rising behind the shoreline, and the area is a base for trips to the Similan Islands. The resort's address is in the Thai-muang district, on the same stretch of coast.

Khao Lak-Lam Ru National Park is 1.9 km away, with forest trails in its hills, and the Tsunami Memorial, 1.6 km away, recalls the 2004 tsunami that devastated this coast. Nang Thong Beach is 2.3 km away, and Similan National Park is 3.9 km away, covering the islands offshore. Ton Chong Fa Waterfall is 7.5 km away, inland in the hills.

A day could start with a walk through Khao Lak-Lam Ru National Park, continue to Ton Chong Fa Waterfall, and end on the sand at Khaolak Beach. The resort's own private beach, outdoor pool and spa cover the rest of the day, and tours can be arranged for trips further afield. The beach and the forest are close enough to combine in one day, and the evenings can be spent on the resort grounds, where the pool and the spa sit.
