Naiharn Beach villa is in Rawai, on the southern side of Phuket, in a part of the island that feels calmer than the resort strip at Patong. Nai Harn is a bay with its own beach, and the wider district mixes temples, a fish market and a ferry pier, so the area has a more local feel. Life here is slower than in the busier resort areas, and the bay and the temples form much of the local scene.

Big Buddha, the large seated statue on a hill above the island, is 3.8 km away, and Chaithararam Temple, better known as Wat Chalong, is one of the best-known temples on Phuket. Rawai Pier is a ferry terminal, and the Phuket Town local bus station is 12.8 km away. Getting around is simplest by car, since the villa has free parking on site.

A good day could start with a swim at Nai Harn Beach, 2.6 km away, then a visit to the Big Buddha and Wat Chalong, before an evening at Patong Beach, 10.7 km away, for its nightlife. Patong is a different pace from the quieter south of the island, so it makes a clear change of scene after a day spent around the bay.
