Patong is one of Phuket's best-known beach resorts, and the property sits in the busy town area a short distance from the sand. The streets nearby are full of shops, bars, restaurants and night markets, so the area stays lively well into the evening. Beach days and evenings out are easy to combine here, since the beach and the bars are close together.

Patong Beach is 200 m away and Bangla Road, the street known for its bars and nightlife, is 250 m away. Jungceylon Shopping Center is 400 m away, with shops and restaurants, and Phuket International Airport is 24.4 km away. Karon Beach, a few kilometres further along the coast, is a quieter option for a day on the sand.

A good day could start with a swim at Patong Beach, continue with a walk along Bangla Road and end with the Phuket FantaSea show. For a day out, the Big Buddha, 7.4 km away on its hilltop, has wide views over the island, and Chaithararam Temple, known as Wat Chalong, is worth a visit too. Trips to the other beaches are easiest by car or taxi, since the island is spread out, so it helps to plan each day around one area at a time.
