Nearby Attractions

Chabana Resort’s central northern Phuket location puts three top local attractions within easy reach:

• Bang-tao Beach: Just a 10-minute walk from the resort, this 6-kilometer stretch of pale golden sand is far quieter than Patong or Kata. Gentle rolling waves make it ideal for swimming and long sunset walks, and you’ll find casual beach shacks serving cold beer and fresh grilled seafood along the shore.
• Phuket FantaSea: A 10-minute drive from the resort, this iconic Thai cultural theme park is perfect for families. Catch a spectacular traditional dance and elephant show, wander the artisan village, and enjoy a lavish buffet dinner under decorative lanterns.
• Layan Beach: A 15-minute drive north, this secluded cove is framed by limestone headlands and backed by protected mangrove forests. It’s one of Phuket’s best spots for stand-up paddleboarding, birdwatching, and escaping the crowds entirely.
