The KUARTZ in Karon — 400 metres from one of Phuket's longest beaches
Karon sits between Patong and Kata on the west coast: a wide, straight beach, a village behind it and green hills behind the village. The map point puts The KUARTZ inside the village grid, a short walk from the sand.

Distances from the KUARTZ point, straight line
Measured from the project point to the centre of each place. Road distances are longer: Phuket's west coast is hilly, and Karon connects to Patong and to Chalong over passes.
| What | Straight line |
|---|---|
| Karon Beach | 0.7 km |
| Kata Beach | 3.1 km |
| Patong Beach | 5.3 km |
| Big Buddha | 2.8 km |
| Phuket Old Town | 11.0 km |
| Phuket International Airport | 29.3 km |
Straight-line distances from the project point (7.84762, 98.29678) and public landmark coordinates. Not a road distance.
The district
What Karon is like to live in
Karon Beach is one of the longest on Phuket: a straight, wide stretch of sand facing west, with a promenade and a road behind it rather than a wall of hotels. The beach is swimmable most of the year; from May to October the surf gets strong and the red flags go up, as everywhere on the west coast.
Behind the beach is Karon village — a proper grid of streets with a fresh market, a temple, a school, pharmacies, small restaurants and long-term residents from Thailand, Europe and Russia. It is quieter than Patong, 5.3 km to the north, and more built-up than Kata Noi to the south.
Kata, 3.1 km away, adds a second beach, more restaurants and the viewpoint road to the Big Buddha. Phuket Old Town is 11.0 km away in a straight line, about forty minutes by car; the airport is 29.3 km, over an hour by road in season.
Why the district matters for this project
400 m — a few minutes on foot, which is what tenants pay for on the west coast — see prices with the pre-sale discounts
shops, a market and services within walking distance; you do not need a car for daily life
nightlife and shopping 5.3 km one way, a second beach and viewpoints 3.1 km the other
Rhom Bho's earlier projects are in Nai Yang, Bang Tao, Kamala and Rawai — The KUARTZ is its first in Karon
