Nai Yang is a beach area in Thalang district on Phuket, and the hotel is 2.1 km from Phuket International Airport. Phuket is linked to the mainland by a bridge, and the area is reached by road from the airport and from the rest of the island, so a car or a transfer is the usual way to get there. Nai Yang Beach lies 900 m away, within Sirinat National Park, a protected coastal park with beaches and forest.

Close by, Wat Mongkol Wararam is a temple 300 m from the hotel, and the Ni Yang Night Market, 450 m away, is a market for the evening. Naiyang Park is also nearby, and for a day in the water the Splash Jungle Water Park is 2.8 km away. Taxi and shuttle services can be arranged through the hotel, which also offers airport transfers.

A simple day could start on Nai Yang Beach, continue to the temple in the afternoon and end at the night market. Maikhao Beach and its airplane viewpoint are a little further along the road, and the sunset viewpoint is also close by, so there is plenty to do in the area without going far from Nai Yang.
