Karon is a sandy bay on Phuket's west coast, between Kata and Patong. Patuk Road, where the hotel stands, runs through a mix of hotels, small restaurants and shops, and Karon Beach is 450 m from the hotel. The bay has a calmer feel than Patong, the island's busiest beach town, and it is a practical base for a beach holiday, with the sand, the shops and the restaurants all within a short walk of the hotel.

Kata Beach is 1.4 km away, the next bay along the coast, and the Big Buddha stands on a hilltop 1.8 km from the hotel as a large white statue. Chaithararam Temple, known as Wat Chalong, is one of the island's most revered temples. Patong is 5.7 km away, and Bangla Road there is the best-known nightlife street on the island. Phuket International Airport is 30.6 km from the hotel, and the hotel offers an airport transfer.

A good day could start at the Big Buddha and Wat Chalong, continue to Kata Beach for the afternoon, and end with the Phuket FantaSea cultural show in the evening. Nai Harn Beach, a quieter bay further along the coast, makes a calmer day out for those who want a quieter stretch of sand.
