The area is a mix of local neighbourhoods, small shops and roadside stalls, and it appeals to travellers who want to see the temples and the hilltop viewpoints before heading to the beaches.

Wat Chalong, officially Chaithararam Temple, is one of the most revered temples on the island and sits 2 km from the resort, while the Big Buddha is 1.7 km away. Tiger PARK Phuket and Phuket Bird Park are within a few hundred metres of the resort, and Chalong Pier, 2.9 km away, is the ferry terminal for boat trips to nearby islands. The Night Market is also close by, and it is one of the local markets worth a visit in the evening.

A good day could start at the Big Buddha and Wat Chalong in the morning, then continue to Kata Beach in the afternoon before returning to the resort for the evening. For nightlife, Bangla Road in Patong is the best-known street on the island.
