Karon is a beach area on Phuket between Kata and Patong. Woodbridge Property is on Patak Road, with Karon Beach about 600 m away and Kata Beach 1.2 km away. The beach is a long sandy stretch, and small hotels and guesthouses line the streets close to the sand, with small shops and food stalls in between.

Inland from the beach, the Big Buddha sits on a hilltop above the island and is a short drive away. The statue is one of the island's best-known landmarks, and the hilltop gives wide views across the island. Chaithararam Temple, known as Wat Chalong, is one of Phuket's most important temples and lies 4.3 km away, and visitors often combine it with a visit to the Big Buddha on the same day. Bangla Road, the nightlife street of Patong, is 6.7 km away.

A good day out combines a swim at Karon Beach with a visit to Wat Chalong and the Big Buddha, then the Karon night market in the evening, which is an easy way to try local food. Phuket International Airport is 30.9 km away, and an airport transfer service is available for the trip, so the beach, the temples and the night market can all be reached from the same base.
