Karon is a beach area on the Andaman side of Phuket, between Kata and Patong. Its long stretch of sand is backed by a road lined with restaurants and small shops, and the area has an everyday, lively feel. Karon Beach is 700 m from the property, and the Karon Night Market is close by.

Kata Beach is the neighbouring bay. The Big Buddha, a large white statue on Nakkerd Hills, is 1.6 km from the property, and it is one of the island's best-known sights. Chaithararam Temple, known as Wat Chalong, is 4.1 km away and is among Phuket's most important Buddhist temples, set around a large temple complex. Phuket International Airport is 30.7 km away, and the property has free parking for guests who drive.

A good first day could start with a swim at Karon Beach and continue with a visit to the Big Buddha and Wat Chalong, which are both within a short drive. Patong Beach, 5.7 km away, is the island's best-known beach area, with nightlife and shopping streets. In the evening the Karon Night Market offers food stalls and everyday goods. Restaurants, bars and small shops are scattered along the beach road, so there is plenty of choice for an evening out.
