Da Kanda Villa Beach Resort is on the Thong Sala shoreline, where the port town meets its west-coast beach. Ao Bang Charu is 100 m away, and Thong Sala village is 750 m away. Fresh Market is 650 m from the resort, while Phantip Market is 850 m away. The nearby market streets bring food stalls and everyday shopping close to the beach, and the town's ferry connections make this part of Koh Phangan a busy arrival point.

Koh Phangan is reached by boat, with Thong Sala serving as the island's main port. Ko Pha-ngan Pier is 950 m from the resort, and a free two-way transfer from Thongsala Pier is available if you contact the resort in advance with your arrival date and time. Ferries connect Thong Sala with Koh Samui and the mainland; from Samui International Airport, continue to a departure pier before crossing. Unlike stays on the island's east coast, the approach to Thong Sala does not involve the steep roads towards Thong Nai Pan or Than Sadet.

Nearby landmarks include the Chinese Temple at 250 m and Wat Rat Charoen at 450 m. For an inland outing, Phaeng Waterfall is 3.9 km away, while Jungle Flight Adventure Park is 5.8 km from the resort. The waterfall lies among the island's forested interior, and the adventure park offers another outing away from the shoreline. Back in Thong Sala, the markets and harbour remain part of the town's everyday life.
