The Vista Hotel By Satit Group is in Sadao, a district of Hat Yai in Songkhla province in southern Thailand, close to the border with Malaysia. Songkhla sits in the far south of the country, where Thai and Malay influences meet in the food and the markets. The hotel sits on Kanjanavanich Road, and the surroundings are quieter than the city itself: small villages sit around the hotel, and a supermarket is close by for everyday needs.

The nearest airport is Hat Yai International Airport (HDY), 45.7 km away. The village of Ban Thai–Changlon is right beside the hotel, and Dinosaur Park Dannok and the Asian Cultural Village are both close by. Anything in the wider area is a short trip by road, so the first part of a stay is spent getting to know the villages rather than the city.

Further afield, the sights of Hat Yai itself are over 50 km away. A day out could combine the Namtok Ton Nga Chang waterfall with Wat Hat Yai Nai and the Santisuk Market in Hat Yai, with the Asean Night Bazaar for dinner. Evenings are spent back in the quieter villages around the hotel, where the pace is slower after a day out.
