to the Imperial City of Hue, My Son
Holy Land, and the famous four-
seasons-in-a day Ba Na Mountain.
The Son Tra Peninsula, with its for-
ested mountains and sandy beaches is
a conservation area popular with local
residents, and there are two champion-
ship golf courses nearby.
Surrounded by unspoiled nature,
and with 42 acres of fragrant mani-
cured gardens, there is space, privacy
and absolute comfort to be enjoyed by
independent travellers, couples, fami-
lies and groups alike.
LIVING
With the option of an ocean or gar-
den view, all rooms, bungalows and vil-
las are located a short stroll away from
one of the two resort swimming
pools. Room configurations offer space
and facilities for couples and those with
young children, while the bungalows
and villas are extra-large spaces with
furnished terraces that make them es-
pecially suitable for families. Villas
have their own separate living rooms
and both bungalows and villas offer the
choice of a garden or beachside setting.
CHILLING
The beautiful sandy beach di-
rectly in front of the resort is a
playground for water sports, such
as surfing, body boarding, windsurfing,
jet skiing and kayaking. There are two
swimming pools, the main pool being
on the beachfront with the second pool
set in the gardens.
The Kids’ Club will keep the young-
sters busy and happy, with a pro-
gramme of activities and water sports.
Two tennis courts are available,
along with a games area that offers
snooker and table tennis, and there
is plenty of space on the beach and
in the gardens for families to enjoy
games together.
The Spa has indoor treatment
suites and massage facilities set in the
garden and on the beach.
The speciality here is the full-body
treatment with ginger, but the tradi-
tional Vietnamese massage and aro-
matherapy massage are also highlights.
DINING
Local Vietnamese cuisine, along
with other Asian dishes and inter-
national favourites, are all served at
Alamanda Restaurant, which has a
garden setting and indoor and outdoor
seating. Open all day, this is the resort’s
prime spot for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Those relaxing on the beach have only
to take a few steps to enjoy refreshing
drinks, pizza, pasta and snacks at the
Beach Bar & Pizzeria, which is open
through the daylight hours.
For a convivial cocktail or two, and
a choice of fine wines, beers and spir-
its, the Garden Pub is a pleasant spot
amongst the greenery, open from mid
afternoon until midnight. The Lobby
Bar, meanwhile, is a perfect retreat at
any time for coffee, tea, cold drinks
and light snacks.

The resort is suitable for events
and meetings of all kinds, with an in-
door space that can cater for up to 200
guests seated theatre-style and with
attractive outdoor spaces ideal for re-
ceptions and parties. The lush green
setting of the Moonlight Garden can

beachfront pool and the garden pool
