Victoria Resort & Spa, Hoi An

The Victoria Hoi An is located just outside the ancient town beside the sea. With frequent free shuttle bus services to and from the old town, you can easily divide your time between exploring the myriad of streets and temples of the word heritage area of the town and some old fashioned relaxation by the sea.

Victoria Hoi An offers various spacious rooms and villas: Japanese, Colonial French and Ancient Vietnamese. It's unusual for so many styles to be combined but it works well here. 

There is a central swimming pool around which the rooms are spread, as well as a wide area of sea frontage. The in house spa offers a full menu of treatments and therapies to take the strain off any tired feet or hot bodies. Other facilities worthy of mention at Victoria Hoi An are free mountain bike hire, tennis courts, jacuzzis and a fitness centre. The resort also offers a good range of water sports including sailing, water skiing, kayaking and wind surfing. The main building houses several restaurants and bars as well as a library and billiard room. There are also excellent facilities for those with children with a well decorated and equipped kids room and a Children's library.

It should be noted that the beach is narrow at the best of times and indeed, at certain times of the year, disappears entirely. 

Excursions offered through Victoria Hoi An are varied and at times, unusual. The pick of the bunch being a day trip exploring Hoi An and the surrounding countryside by vintage motorbike and sidecar.

Overall the resort is luxurious and yet laid-back enough at the same time to retain an informal and welcoming ambiance.
