Just minutes away, guests can visit Nai Han Beach, widely considered one of Phuket’s best beaches, famous for its soft white sand, clear turquoise water, and relaxed atmosphere surrounded by green hills. Nearby is the smaller hidden cove of Ya Nui Beach, popular for snorkeling, kayaking, paddleboarding, and sunset swims. Rawai is also home to some of Phuket’s most iconic viewpoints. Windmill Viewpoint and Promthep Cape offer breathtaking panoramic views over the Andaman Sea and are among the island’s most famous sunset locations. For adventurous guests, Black Rock Viewpoint provides a rewarding jungle hike with dramatic ocean views. The Rawai beachfront itself has a charming local feel, lined with seafood restaurants, cafés, massage shops, bars, and longtail boats waiting to take visitors to nearby tropical islands including Coral Island, Koh Bon, and Racha Islands. Food lovers will find some of Phuket’s best seafood in Rawai. Guests can enjoy beachfront dining at Kan Eang Restaurant - ร้านกันเอง, Nikita's Beach Restaurant, or Coconut Seafood 2_Rawai while watching the sunset over the bay.
