Top 5 luxury resorts in Vietnam, chosen by the rich as "hideaways"

(Dan Tri) - Villas "hidden" in the mountains and forests or isolated resorts on the coast of Vietnam are becoming attractive destinations for domestic and foreign tourists thanks to their comfort and privacy.

In recent years, luxury resort tourism in Vietnam has recorded a clear breakthrough. A series of resorts have reached international standards, honored by Michelin or World Travel Awards.

Below are 5 outstanding resorts where visitors can "hide" in nature and fully enjoy a feeling of relaxation and privacy.

Amanoi

Amidst the wild mountains of Nui Chua, Amanoi resort is known for its prices being among the most expensive in Vietnam - around 4,500 USD - 15,000 USD/night (equivalent to 118-394 million VND/room/night). However, many tourists still consider this place worth the money thanks to its absolute privacy and the almost "6-to-1" service team.

The entire area has 9 pavilions, 22 villas, 12 residence villas and 2 wellness pool villas. However, this place has up to 350 service staff. On average, each guest is taken care of by 6 staff. Each space is designed as a private quiet space, bringing absolute peace to visitors.

Amanoi was designed by architect Jean-Michel Gathy in a contemporary, minimalist style, with expansive views of the sea or mountains.

Thanks to its absolute privacy and classy experience, this place is often chosen by artists and the upper class as a resort. The 925m² Ocean Pool Residence villa, where Ho Ngoc Ha and Kim Ly stayed on their 8th anniversary, costs about 350 million VND/night.

However, this isolation also makes Amanoi "picky" with guests, because the resort is isolated and has almost no public services around.

Amanoi has recently been honored at the highest level in the Michelin global hotel rating system. This is one of two accommodations in Vietnam to achieve this ranking.

In 2022, the resort was also honored at the World Travel Awards as Asia's Leading Beachfront Boutique Resort. In the same year, Amanoi also received the award for Vietnam's Best Luxury Boutique Resort at the Haute Grandeur Global Excellence Awards.

Address: Vinh Hai Commune, Khanh Hoa Province

Reference price: From 118 million VND to 394 million VND/apartment/night

Six Senses Ninh Van Bay

Nestled in Ninh Van Bay (Khanh Hoa), Six Senses Ninh Van Bay is a familiar destination for many businessmen and international stars who want to enjoy an absolutely private vacation. This is one of the isolated resorts, likened to an ecological village, hidden by the majestic sea and mountains.

The resort is inspired by traditional fishing village architecture, combining a luxurious style close to nature. Thatched-roof villas are scattered along the mountainside, using natural materials such as wood, bamboo, and stone, creating a rustic yet sophisticated feel. The infinity pool facing the sea, outdoor stone bathtub and sundeck provide a private, relaxing experience.

Getting there is not easy, however. It takes about 40 minutes from the airport to the pier, then a 20-minute canoe ride from the mainland, making the journey less convenient for those traveling with small children or the elderly.

Some guests have complained that the food service is “not commensurate with the price”, especially in the high-end room group. However, for those who prioritize tranquility, this is still one of the resorts with the best natural experience value in Vietnam.

Address: Dong Ninh Hoa Ward, Khanh Hoa Province

Reference price: From 13 million VND/night/room (maximum 2 adults)

InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort

Having hosted many heads of state and international artists, this resort has long been considered a symbol of luxury in Vietnam.

Designed by architect Bill Bensley, InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort stands out as a luxurious “resort paradise”, located on Son Tra Peninsula. The tiled-roof villas, white walls and sea-facing balconies bear a strong Asian imprint, blending delicately with the mountain and ocean landscape.

Each villa has its own private swimming pool, creating a sense of privacy for visitors. Amidst the peaceful space of Son Tra peninsula, visitors can listen to the sound of waves, breathe fresh air and enjoy high-class service, turning the vacation here into a luxurious yet peaceful journey.

Cuisine is also a highlight here with Michelin-starred La Maison 1888 and Citron Restaurant - where diners can dine on conical-shaped tables suspended in mid-air.

However, with room rates starting at 18 million VND/night, this place may make many domestic tourists consider their budget.

Address: Bac Beach, Son Tra Peninsula, Son Tra Ward, Da Nang City

Reference price: From 18 million VND/night/room (maximum 2 adults)

Zannier Hotels Coral Beach

Zannier Hotels Bai San Ho is a relatively new name but has quickly become famous thanks to its sophisticated design and pristine landscape, hidden among the natural scenery of Dak Lak (formerly Phu Yen).

This resort is nearly 100 hectares wide with 73 villas, providing a sense of isolation and peace, ideal for those who want to temporarily escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

The architecture here is inspired by traditional Vietnamese houses such as stilt houses, tile-roofed houses of fishing villages and communal houses of the Central Highlands. Using natural materials such as bamboo, wood and stone, this resort offers a luxurious space while still maintaining a rustic, intimate feel.

The cuisine is a highlight with fresh local ingredients. Diners can enjoy Asian and European dishes presented in Vietnamese style. This is also one of the most beautiful sunrise viewing spots in the area as the sun gradually rises.

The isolated space, welcoming only a limited number of guests, makes Zannier Hotels Bai San Ho a favorite destination for the European elite when visiting Vietnam. For tourists looking for peace, this is an ideal "hidden" place. Those who like excitement may find Zannier a bit... quiet because of its isolation.

Zannier Hotels Bai San Ho was recently awarded 2 Michelin Keys, recognizing its unique architecture, quality service and distinctive resort experience.

Address: Xuan Canh Commune, Dak Lak Province

Reference price: From 8.5 million VND/night/room (maximum 2 adults)

Banyan Tree Lang Co Resort

Banyan Tree Lang Co Resort is a luxury resort inspired by Hue's royal heritage and traditional craft villages. Nestled in Lang Co Bay, it is surrounded by lush green forests and murmuring ocean waves, offering a quiet space, separate from the hustle and bustle of urban life.

Private villas nestled in the middle of nature, using terracotta tile roofs, wooden pillars and traditional gardens. Luxurious interiors combined with lotus motifs, Dong Son bronze drums... evoke a sense of antiquity and sophistication, suitable for those seeking tranquility and class.

Many visitors appreciate the spa and golf course services, but also think that the food court here is not really outstanding compared to the price level.

Recently, this resort was honored with 2 Michelin Keys, affirming the quality of service and the value of unique cultural and natural experiences.

However, the space here is quite isolated, suitable for a quiet vacation. For those who want to explore local culture, Banyan Tree is located quite far from the center of Hue city, making it somewhat inconvenient to travel and experience the ancient capital's heritage.

Address: Chan May Ward - Lang Co, Hue City

Reference price: From 9.5 million VND/night/room (maximum 2 adults)
