Location & what to see
Chalong is a residential district on Phuket island, known for its Buddhist temples and for the pier where boats leave for the islands nearby. The streets are quieter than the beach strips of Patong and Kata, and the neighbourhood has local markets and roadside food stalls.
The best-known site close by is Chaithararam Temple, known as Wat Chalong, which is 1.8 km from the resort. The Big Buddha stands on a hill 2.6 km away, with views over the surrounding hills. Kata Beach and Karon Beach are 4.4 km and 4.6 km away, and Patong Beach is 8 km away, which puts the busier beaches within a single day trip. Most sights here are a short drive apart, and a car or scooter is the easiest way to reach them.
A good day could start at Wat Chalong in the morning, continue to the Big Buddha, and end with a swim at Karon Beach or an evening at the night market. The Phuket Botanic Garden and the Phuket Bird Park are also in the area, for a slower afternoon, and the Chalong Pier, a ferry terminal near the resort, is worth a visit for anyone interested in boat trips to the islands.
What guests say
Travellers rate the cleanliness and the service (both 8.9) most highly, and the facilities and value for money also score well.
