Countryside & Caves by Train
Travelling by train along the coast is both fun and a great way to discover lesser-known Vietnam.
AT ETG, we encourage visitors to do things differently. That’s sometimes tricky in Vietnam, with limited quality accommodation options beyond the well-trodden route. We were excited when Zannier Bai San Ho opened, it’s in a beautiful, remote location, and we’re big fans of the sister property Phum Baitang in Siem Reap.
The resort and its 73 villas are set across 250 acres, surrounded by jungle-clad hills, lush rice paddies and a half-mile beach in Phu Yen near Quy Nhon on the Central Coast. Villas are built from reclaimed timber and feature bamboo furniture and top-quality soft furnishings - many have private pools. The whole resort has been created carefully with a genuine commitment to sustainability and respect for traditional local architecture.
There is plenty to keep you busy, from snorkelling and water sports to tennis or yoga and plenty of local excursions are possible. There is an infinity pool with panoramic views, a spa with a range of signature treatments and a choice of three restaurants where you can treat yourself to traditional Vietnamese, international dishes or fish barbeques near the beach. The range of activities makes this a good option for families, and there is also a kids club for 2-12-year-olds.
Zannier Bai San Ho is on the Central Coast partway between Nha Trang and Hoi An, about an hour south of Quy Nhon, reachable in an hour by plane from either Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City. We recommend travelling down by train from Hoi An and relaxing here towards the end of a tour of the whole country.
In summary, Zannier Bai San Ho offers a terrific barefoot-luxury beach experience in an unspoilt and beautiful location that slots nicely into a tour of Vietnam.
Luxury - Luxury hotels would have a superb level of service, very comfortable and usually spacious bedrooms, excellent food, great design and character. For us, when we visited, these places all had the 'wow factor'. A luxury hotel should satisfy the criteria of the most discerning clients.
