Set on a sweeping stretch of sand just outside historic Hoi An, the Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai offers an elegant fusion of contemporary luxury and Vietnamese heritage. Villas are laid out like a traditional fishing village, each a tranquil, private retreat cocooned in tropical gardens. At its heart, three cascading infinity pools lead the eye towards the sea—while all around, refined service and thoughtful design create a space to completely unwind.
The Four Seasons Nam Hai offers the rare balance of total privacy and exceptional facilities, with direct beach frontage and a short drive to Hoi An’s historic lanes and lantern-lit riverfront. Whether you’re after spa time, poolside relaxation or enriching excursions, it’s a seamless, high-end base for discovering central Vietnam.
The split level one-bedroom villas are large (80m2) and private; each occupies its own landscaped garden and area of the beach looking out towards the ocean. The interior of the Nam Hai is extraordinary, in the middle of the villa sits a raised platform which has a king-sized bed with a plasma screen TV at its foot, a cushioned day bed and a sunken eggshell-lacquered bath. Beyond the living area is a lavish bathroom leading to a stunning slate outdoor rain shower. The villa is well insulated, so you can take full advantage of the iPod dock and Bose sound system without disturbing other guests!
The pool villas are identical to the one-bedroom villas. Still, they are enclosed in a private courtyard with a separate building in the compound housing a spacious living and dining area. There is even a butler’s quarters as well as a private outdoor temperature-controlled swimming pool. If you take, for example, a 3 bedroom villa then there will be 3 x one-bedroom villas in your compound!
