Kata is one of Phuket's best-known beach areas, a stretch of sand with a lively mix of cafés, bars and shops along the roads behind it. The sea is close to the hotel, and Kata Beach is 150 m away, so the beach is an easy walk from the entrance.

Kata Noi Beach is a neighbouring beach just along the coast. The Big Buddha Phuket, a large seated statue on a hill, is 2.3 km from the hotel, and Chaithararam Temple, known as Wat Chalong, is one of the island's most important Buddhist temples, further away. The Kata Walking Street Night Market, an evening market with local food and shopping, is 1.4 km away.

A good day here can start on the sand at Kata Beach, go on to the Big Buddha and finish with food at the Kata Walking Street Night Market in the evening. Phuket International Airport is 33.2 km away, and there is an airport transfer. Patong Beach is 8.2 km away for a different side of the island's beach life. Kata works well for a day split between the sea, the temples and the markets, and the hotel has an airport transfer for the journey in and out.
