Some resorts take time to develop a glowing reputation. Others command it right out of the gate. Slot the all-villa Nam Hai into the latter category. Since opening in December 2006, Vietnam’s premier seaside property has raked in the accolades for its singular architecture (Travel + Leisure magazine Design Awards panelists voted it ‘World’s Best Resort’ in 2008), impeccable service and commitment to quality.

Since opening in early 2010 on a four-hectare site fronting Bac My An Beach, the Lifestyle Resort Danang has become an instant landmark and favourite among visitors — because it boasts everything any guest could want. Only three kilometers from downtown Danang and just 30 kilometres from the charming Old Town in Hoi An, a UNESCO World Heritage site, the resort is also convenient to both of Danang’s world-class golf courses — in addition to scuba diving, sailing, and excursions to the Cham Islands, visible from the resort’s private beach.
