Ko Yao Yai is an island in Phang Nga Bay, separate from Phuket island, with quiet villages, small beaches and a slow pace of life. Elixir Resort Koh YAO Yai sits by the sea, with the water close to its villas, and the island is a place to slow down rather than to plan a busy itinerary.

The closest beach is Lo Jak Beach, 1.1 km away, and Ao Sai Beach is 3.3 km off, while the village of Ban Khlong Din Niao lies 1.6 km from the resort. Loh Pared Beach is further along the coast, and Phru Nai Health Promoting Hospital is 3.5 km away. Because the island has no bridge, the crossing from Phuket or the mainland is made by boat, and Phuket International Airport and Krabi International Airport are both across the water.

A day could start on Lo Jak Beach and continue with a boat trip to Khai Nok Island, 7.9 km away, a small island offshore. Back at the resort, there is a spa with massages, a yoga room and an outdoor pool, and Lalin Restaurant and Bar serves Thai cuisine with an ocean view. In the rainy months, sea conditions can make boat crossings rougher, so it is worth checking the water before a day trip.
