Karon is a long sandy beach on Phuket's Andaman coast, with hotels, cafes and small shops lining the road behind the sand. Street-food stalls and massage shops line parts of the road, and the beach itself is wide in places, which suits a relaxed beach stay. The area is calmer than Patong, the island's busiest resort area. Walking along the sand in either direction shows how the coast changes from one bay to the next, and the quieter stretches are a good place for a slow beach day.

Freedom Beach, a small cove 1.7 km from the resort, is one of the quieter beaches nearby. Patong Beach is 2.8 km away, with Bangla Road, the main nightlife street, nearby. Kata Beach, a popular sandy beach with a bay, is 4.1 km away. Big Buddha Phuket, the large white statue on Nakkerd Hills, is 4.9 km away, and Chaithararam Temple, known as Wat Chalong, is one of the most important Buddhist temples on the island.

A good day could start on Karon Beach, continue to Big Buddha and Wat Chalong, and end on Bangla Road in Patong. Phuket International Airport is 27.9 km from the resort, and the route from there is by road.
