Naiyang Beach is a long stretch of sand in northern Phuket, backed by trees and quieter than the resort beaches further down the island. Much of the coastline lies within Sirinat National Park, which protects the beaches where sea turtles nest. The area suits guests who want a relaxed beach holiday rather than a busy nightlife scene.

The beach itself is 1.5 km from the hotel, and Sirinat National Park is 1.9 km away. Phuket International Airport is 4.2 km away. Nearby are a sunset viewpoint and the Ni Yang Night Market. Further away, the Big Buddha on Nakkerd Hills is a well-known landmark, and Patong Beach, the island's main resort and nightlife area, is 18.5 km away.

Phuket International Airport is also 4.2 km away from the resort's grounds, and the main sights are all reached by road, so a day here could start with a swim at Nai Yang Beach, continue into Sirinat National Park, and end at one of the sunset viewpoints nearby. For livelier evenings, Patong is the main option, while the quieter stretch of Naiyang Beach is where the hotel sits. Back at the hotel, guests can use the outdoor pool, the garden and the terrace.
