Four Seasons Resort, The Nam Hai

Set along a seemingly infinite stretch of sand, close to Vietnam’s richest cultural heritage, a strand of sophisticated, visually striking villas line the dramatic beachfront.

Inspired by thousands of years of history, Four Seasons Resort, The Nam Hai’s architecture and interior design creates a memorable place to stay. Home to 60 one-bedroom villas and 40 pool villas spread over many acres of tropical gardens and along the pristine shoreline of Ha My Beach, each bedroom pavilion centres around an elevated platform inspired by traditional Vietnamese garden houses. Pool Villa guests here will enjoy attentive butler service. Savour breakfasts brimming with Eastern and Western treats on the outdoor deck of Café Nam Hai or by night, enjoy fusion fare in the sleek low-lit dining room. Sample the day’s freshest catch at La Sen, which transforms after nightfall with an extensive menu of Vietnamese delicacies, plus the Beach Bar makes a memorable impression.

Explore the nearby UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Hoi An, taking in the Buddhist pagodas, royal tombs and historic citadels. Return to the resort to absorb the calm and relaxation of the sumptuous spa. Feel active at the sleek health club, or broaden your cookery knowledge with a Vietnamese cooking class in the shiny show kitchen before dining on the fruits of your labour. Nestled between the tennis court and organic gardens is the Kids’ Activities Villa, where the resort’s youngest guests are entertained by attentive staff.
