Numsai Khaosuay Resort sits in Khaoniwes, in the middle of Ranong, a provincial town on Thailand's Andaman coast in the south of the country. The town is quiet and compact, with a pier, a bus station and a food market close to the centre, and it is a good starting point for travellers who want to see the south beyond the beach resorts.

The Ranong Municipal Food Market is 450 m away, and the City Pillar Shrine, a local place of worship, is 500 m away. The Raksa Warin hot springs sit inside a park with an arboretum, 1.6 km from the resort. The pier at Pak Nam, 4.3 km away, is the departure point for boats to offshore islands, and the Ranong Provincial Transport Station is 600 m away for journeys around the province.

The town is also practical for a longer stay, with a hospital and cash machines close to the resort. A good day could start with the hot springs and the arboretum, followed by a walk through the town and an evening at the food market. Back at the resort, the hot tub and the outdoor pool offer a quieter end to the day after a full day out in the town.
