Don't blow through before you have checked out the Nai Thon Beach and Blue Canyon Country Club in Sa Khu. Some of our recommended Sa Khu hotel options are the 24/7 Hotel and Canal Resort. Or, you could stay in Thep Kasattri, 10 kilometres to the south of Mai Khao, where you can pick from the Thanyapura Sports Hotel and At Panta Phuket. If you're staying in Thep Kasattri, don't miss the Mission Hills Golf Course, Wat Pra Thong and Ton Sai Waterfall.

Australia has some of the world's greatest sports lovers, so why not indulge with a visit to Ao Nang Krabi Boxing Stadium? Find Ao Nang Krabi Boxing Stadium 55 kilometres to the east of Mai Khao. Want to stay near the action? The Pornthep Mansion and the Beach Terrace Hotel could both be perfect.

Travellers planning on arriving through Phuket International Airport may find it convenient to book accommodation at the Phuket Airport Inn or the 24/7 Hotel, which are both close.
