But if you are looking for a quiet place, to leave behind all the troubles and tensions of life, then Phuket has something really special in store for you. Kata beach, also known as Kata Yai beach, is a two kilometre stretch of tranquil paradise. The beach is flanked by green hills, with the beautiful Pu islands in the distance. Between the tall palms and the inviting waters, the spread of white sand is a haven of peace. The waters are shallow, making them safe for non- swimmers as well as children.
You can rent a lounge chair and lay back, while the island works its magic on you. There are plenty of vendors who sell souvenirs, food, beverages and even massages on the beach. And you don’t have to get off your lounge chair, as they are more than willing to bring their services to you. The nightlife on Kata beach is generally more toned down and quieter than at other places in Phuket. This makes for many pleasant evenings of sipping cocktails while enjoying a quiet conversation. You also have ample choices when it comes to dining with many great restaurants located in the area.
The nearby region has some terrific places to stay. If you want to extend the theme of unwinding in your Phuket resort, you can try the Millennium Resort Patong Phuket. The hotel is like a bubble of calm, right in the middle of the thriving Patong region. It is just a short ‘tuk tuk’ (local taxi) ride away from Phuket destinations like Kata beach, Phuket town and Chalong Bay. The spa at this Patong beach resort will soothe your muscles, while the serene ambiance of the hotel will ease your mind, making for one relaxing getaway.
