Six Senses Ninh Van Bay

Location 

This gorgeously secluded resort is perfect for anyone looking to get away from it all. The journey starts at Cam Ranh Airport, from which it’s about an hour’s drive to the exclusive Six Senses Lounge in the city of Nha Trang. From there you’re whisked by boat across the bay’s emerald waters to the resort, which sits at the end of a lush, mountainous peninsula, trimmed by beaches of lightly golden sand.

Accommodation 

Privacy is a keyword here. Each of the resort’s 59 rustic villas has a thatched roof and a deck with its own pool. Choices include Hill Top Pool Villas, Beachfront Pool Villas, Rock Pool Villas and Water Pool Villas, which all feature plunge pools, Wi-Fi, outdoor garden showers, 24-hour butler service and majestic sea views. If you’re travelling with children, the Family Beach Pool Villa has extra sleeping and living areas. For the ultimate luxury experience, book into the Hill Top Reserve, which has a heated infinity pool, large sun-deck, personal chef and poolside movie screen. For those who have difficulty walking, it’s advised you book a beachfront villa, as the rustic nature of the island and villa layouts can make access to other villas more challenging.

Dining 

Enjoy a delicious selection of Asian, Western and fusion dishes at the resort’s open-plan, split-level restaurant by the bay. Dine out on a wide range of meat and seafood at the Signature Restaurant by the rocks, or enjoy a more casual approach by the pool. Private candlelit dinners can also be arranged in the resort’s own Wine Cave, a hillside rock cavern with romantic, ambient lighting and a cosy atmosphere.

Facilities 

The Six Senses Spa at Ninh Van Bay offers traditional Vietnamese therapies and signature treatments, along with a customised detox programme and rejuvenating oxygen facials. If you’re looking to get active on your holiday, try out the fitness centre, tennis courts, volleyball pitch, badminton courts, yoga classes or kayaking trips. There’s also a range of exciting excursions on offer, including trips to Ho Ba, the Cai River and a Nha Trang City Tour.
