One of the world’s most stunning destinations can be found twelve nautical miles south of Phuket, on the Andaman island of Racha Yai. Travel to the resort is half the excitement.... Limousine transfer from Phuket airport to The Racha’s Chalong Lounge takes approximately 1 to 1.5 hours, depending on traffic conditions. At this tranquil lounge, guests check-in and chill prior to speedboat departure to the island. Sea transfer typically takes a mere 30 – 40 minutes, subject to weather and sea conditions.
