Nearby Attractions

Three standout attractions are within easy reach of the hotel:

• Patong Beach: Just an 8-minute walk from the hotel’s front door, this 2-kilometer stretch of golden sand is Phuket’s most popular shore. Spend the day swimming, learning to surf, or soaking up the sun, then stay for sunset and beachside barbecue dinners.
• Bangla Road: A 15-minute walk away, Patong’s iconic entertainment strip comes alive after dark with street performers, open-air bars, night markets, and live music. It’s the best spot in town to soak up Phuket’s famous nightlife energy.
• Karon Viewpoint: A 20-minute drive from the hotel, this clifftop overlook offers sweeping panoramic views of Patong, Karon, and Kata beaches. It’s especially popular at sunrise and sunset, with minimal crowds and plenty of photo opportunities.

Travel Tips

Book your room in advance during peak season (November to February) to secure the best rates and balcony options. Ask the tourist desk to arrange surf lessons directly through the hotel for a discounted rate compared to beachfront vendors. If you plan to explore the island, take advantage of the hotel’s on-site car rental, or rent a bicycle to cycle the quiet coastal roads of southern Phuket. Finally, note that higher floors are only accessible by stairs, so if you have mobility concerns, request a ground-floor room when booking.
