Pludhaya Resort & Spa is set in the Klongsuanplu area of Ayutthaya, where small village houses, shrines and temples surround the property. The garden and the pool give the resort a green setting, and it is quieter than the historic centre, a base from which to explore the old capital.

The Historic City of Ayutthaya, the ruins of the former Siamese capital and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is 5 km away. Wat Mahathat, known for a Buddha head set among tree roots, is 4.7 km away, while Wat Phra Sri Sanphet, the royal temple within the old palace grounds, and Wat Chaiwatthanaram, a riverside temple with a Khmer-style central tower, are a little further away. Ayutthaya Train Station is 4 km away, and the Ayothaya Floating Market & Elephant Village is also nearby. Don Mueang International Airport, the nearest airport, is 45.5 km away.

A good day could begin at the Historic City, continue to Wat Mahathat and then to Wat Chaiwatthanaram by the river, and end back at the pool or the spa. Most of the sights are reached by road from the resort, and the Ayothaya Floating Market & Elephant Village makes a different kind of outing for an afternoon.
