The South Coast Experience<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

The Rawai Nai-Harn Business Association<\/strong> <\/span>is a group of independent companies in the South of Phuket who have joined together to promote the South of Phuket Island and in particular Rawai & Nai-Harn. This association has 9 main sponsors, The Mangosteen Ayurveda & Wellness Resort being one of them. In addition to these nine main sponsors, other independent businesses in the south of the island have joined the association to promote their business and the Rawai Nai-Harn area. One of the main advantages of the association is the Rawai Nai-Harn Benefits Card<\/strong><\/span> which offers attractive discounts for local residents at all of the participating businesses.<\/p>\n

The Rawai Nai-Harn Business Association will work with all of the participating businesses to promote the Rawai Nai-Harn area which is one of the most traditional and unspoiled areas in Phuket.<\/p>\n

The Association organizes local events and activities within their members and the local Thai- and Expat community. The first event was the Rawai Nai-Harn Health & Fitness Weekend 2012, which will become an annual event. More information here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You have not experienced Phuket if you have not been in the South of the Island!<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

There is more to experience in the South of Phuket than you would have thought. Rawai Beach<\/a><\/strong> and Nai Harn<\/a><\/strong> are now lively areas with a multitude of local and international restaurants in every price category. The beach walk features many authentic Thai restaurants as well as seafood restaurants offering delicious and fresh fish,\u00a0crabs, lobsters and oysters. There\u00a0also are\u00a0international dining venues and a variety of bars. Insiders know the location of two rather sophisticated night clubs!<\/p>\n

Different from other tourism hotspots on the island, in the South, locals, expats and tourists mingle in a very relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.<\/strong><\/span> It is hence not a surprise that many of the frequent visitors to Phuket say that without any doubt, this is their preferred part of the island as it is only here that they can experience the real local Phuket.<\/p>\n

The resorts located in the South of Phuket are in close proximity of Nai Harn beach which is among one of the best beaches of Phuket. Another advantage for tourists staying in Rawai or Nai Harn is the proximity to Chalong Pier<\/strong><\/span> from where most of the sea excursions as well as all diving trips depart. The well-known Ao Chalong Yacht Club<\/a><\/strong> is based here as well.<\/p>\n

Phuket\u2019s only flood-light golf course,<\/strong><\/span> being Phunaka Golf Course & Golf Academy<\/strong><\/span> is a ten-minute drive from Rawai and in the same area, one can find the famous tourist attractions such as the 45-meter tall Big Buddha<\/a><\/strong> and Chalong Temple<\/strong>.<\/span> And last but not least, the famous Promthep Cape<\/a><\/strong> where millions of visitors admire the spectacular sunsets is located in the South.[\/az_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][az_single_image image=”14882″ image_mode=”img-full-responsive” image_alignment=”aligncenter” animation_loading=”yes” animation_loading_effects=”scale_up”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row section_mode=”fluid”][vc_column][az_blank_divider][az_single_image image=”14883″ image_mode=”img-full-responsive” image_alignment=”aligncenter” animation_loading=”yes” animation_loading_effects=”scale_up”][az_blank_divider][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][az_single_image image=”14885″ image_mode=”img-full-responsive” image_alignment=”aligncenter” animation_loading=”yes” animation_loading_effects=”scale_up”][az_blank_divider][az_column_text]From the Mangosteen Reception, we can see the following Islands:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
