This marks my second visit, and once again, I experienced an extraordinary stay that far surpassed my expectations.

Read moreI've been holding off writing a review, because I knew it would take me some time to write a lengthy one to show how amazing this place is. This resort has to be one of the best places I've stayed in my life. We went during the week of Christmas (typical rainy season in Vietnam), and thought the rain would dim the experience - but that was not the case. First off, the staff are just magnificent and SO welcoming. They would consistently greet us wherever we went within the hotel (going in/from the hotel, going within hotel restaurants etc) and always checked in on us. Anytime we were walking around, they would come out with these huge umbrellas to cover us from the rain. I wish I grabbed the name of some of the staff, but a few really stood out due their above and beyond assistance during our stay. Whoever has trained this staff deserves a round of applause. You guys are awesome. They have many things on site - a spa, multiple dining options, a gift shop, a traditional Vietnamese clothing experience, etc. They also have a free shuttle that runs throughout the day to Da Nang and Hoi An. If you need help booking a Grab or taxi, they are willing to assist there as well.||||We stayed in a one bedroom-villa, and I cannot express how amazing it was. There was a private pool with the room. It felt like we had our own bungalow in Vietnam! They had a little welcome gift for us waiting on the first day as well (a bottle of wine, Vietnamese snacks, luxury toiletry sets). The room was always extremely clean and taken care of daily. Although it was raining, we still took advantage of the pool and had a wonderful time. They also have a huge beautiful pool on the main premise and a pool for children as well. Every morning, we were able to grab breakfast from the buffet in one of the restaurants. Food was always well prepared, and lot of Asian dining options with a mix of Western dishes as well. ||||The hotel is also on a row of many hotels, but I like how this one is hidden away from the busyness of the main city and street. The premises are huge and definitely a secret getaway. It's directly connected to the beach, but we weren't really able to enjoy that because of the weather - it was beautiful to see though! They had some Christmas festivities such as a Christmas buffet with traditional performances and music, and they even had a Santa on Christmas day walking around. Super cute for the foreigners who have come to celebrate!||||We utilized the spa which has a Japanese bath, sauna, and private massages. The massages were amazing, thorough and super relaxing. The cleanliness is also top-tier. I am very nitpicky with hotels because I feel like many places have gone downhill post-COVID especially in the US.. But this experience truly has restored my hope that there are still amazing luxury hotels living up to its "luxury" name!||||I can go on and on about this place, but the pictures speak for themselves on how beautiful it was (even in the rain!). The staff took this experience to another level with their kindness and hospitality. Went for a sister trip, and was the perfect getaway for a few days during the holidays. Will definitely have to be back in the...
