Anantara Mui Ne Resort

Situated two-and-a-half hours eastward from Ho Chi Minh City lies the Anantara Mui Ne Resort, a 5-star property oozing authentic Vietnamese character and quintessential Anantara luxury. 90 rooms, suites and private pool villas are embellished with colonial-inspired décor, with rooms and suites located in the resort’s main building and private pool villas littered throughout the lush gardens. At the beach, whose soft, golden sands stretch for some ten kilometres, there is a lustrous lagoon-style swimming pool overlooking the sand, with an adjoining bar that serves tropical cocktails. In terms of cuisine, you’ll be able to sample fresh, locally caught seafood and classic Vietnamese recipes on top of Asian tapas and international flavours, with four restaurants and bars to choose from. In-room dining is also an option, as are romantic private dining experiences and Anantara’s excellent Spice Spoons cooking classes. For leisure, the smooth waters of the South China Sea will be beyond temptation, and the resort lies just 20 minutes from Mui Ne’s Martian-esque Red Sand Dunes. There’s also the award-winning Anantara Spa, whose tantalising treatments are rooted in Thai healing traditions, while yoga, water sports and the nearby 18-hole Sea Links Golf Course add to the varied array of activities available in and around the resort. Most notably, you can try your hand at one of Mui Ne’s most popular pastimes: kitesurfing. The coastline’s fresh breezes make Mui Ne one of the best places across Southeast Asia for this thrilling water sport.
