Kamala is a village on the Andaman coast of Phuket island, built around a sandy bay and with a quieter pace than the busier resort towns on the island. The hotel sits in the village itself, so the daily life of Kamala, with its markets and its mosque, is close at hand.

Kamala Beach, 450 m away, is the nearest beach, and the village has the Kamala Night Market and a seafood and fruit market close by. Phuket FantaSea, the cultural theme park with an evening show, is 950 m away, while Patong Beach, the island's busiest beach with its nightlife, is 4.8 km from the hotel. Phuket International Airport is 18.3 km away, and the road connects the village to the rest of the island, where the hotel offers taxi service and car hire.

A good day could start on Kamala Beach, then go to the Big Buddha, a white hilltop statue with views over the island, and to Chaithararam Temple, known as Wat Chalong. The evening can end at the night market or at a show at Phuket FantaSea. The night market suits a relaxed dinner after the beach, while the show is the place for an evening out.
