Bicycle parking is provided, and the hotel has a terrace. Languages at the hotel are English, Chinese (Mandarin), Thai, Malay, Lao and Vietnamese, and telephone service is also offered at the front desk and in the rooms.

Must Sea Hotel is in Kata, a beach area on Phuket where a mix of hotels, shops and small restaurants lines the roads near the sand. The neighbourhood feels calmer than the busiest parts of the island, with shops close to the beach road. Guests who want to walk to the sand and still have shops nearby will find it practical.

Kata Beach is 300 m from the hotel and is the nearest beach, while Karon Beach, a longer stretch of sand with a lively seafront, is 550 m away. Wat Kitti Sangkharam, a pagoda in the area, is close by, and the Phuket Big Buddha, a large white statue on a hilltop, is 1.8 km away. The Karon Night Market, in the Karon area, is a good place for food and local goods in the evening.

A good day can start at the Big Buddha in the morning, followed by a swim at Kata Beach and a walk along the seafront at Karon in the afternoon. The Big Buddha is the furthest of these sights, so it makes sense to visit it first in the day. Guests who want a quieter evening can return to the hotel after the market and finish the day close to the sand.
