About The Racha
The Racha sits on Batok Bay on Racha Yai, an island about 12 nautical miles south of Phuket and some 35 minutes by speedboat from Chalong Bay, where the resort keeps its own lounge for guests on their way out (the resort’s website). Our advice: stay at least two nights to settle into island time.
