Four Seasons Nam Hai

This beautiful beach resort sits just 15 minutes from the UNESCO World Heritage Site town of Hoi An. Out of the 100 villas, most enjoy views over the South China Sea and all are very generous in size. Some offer swimming pools and some sunken bathtubs and all have decor reflective of modern Asia using dark woods, peaked roofs and grey stone complemented by fabulous outdoor spaces.

One Bedroom Villas can be overlooking the gardens, ocean or beachfront or with a private heated infinity pool while Family villas are perfect for up to three children, with an extra bed, a trundle bed and space for a cot too. Two Bedroom Villas offer garden views, come with a private heated infinity pool and can sleep up to six adults or four adults and two children. Three Bedroom Villas are split out between hilltop, ocean view and beachfront, all have private heated infinity pools and are so indulgent you may never want to leave.

Two excellent restaurants are presented in Café Nam Hai, offering Western and Indian dishes and the lantern-lit, atmospheric Vietnamese restaurant Lá Sen. 

To be highly recommended is the Nam Hai Cooking Academy. Start your day with an early morning water buffalo ride through rice fields and end it enjoying the delights of the mouthwatering Vietnamese dishes you have prepared using many ingredients from the hotel's own herb and vegetable garden.

Outside the resort two 18 hole golf courses are just 10 minutes away and diving is available at the nearby Cham Islands, where there is a PADI centre.

At the watersports centre body boarding, kayaking and windsurfing are all complimentary and at additional cost are an impressive range of motorised watersports. Four tennis courts, badminton and a half size basketball courts (all floodlit - of course) complete the picture. No chance of boredom here! Oh and of course if you want a personal trainer or coach for anything, just say the word.

On the slightly more relaxing side, an incredible spa experience awaits, even for children, over the age of 12. An in house Zen Master is on hand for yoga and mindfulness too.

Thoughtful touches for younger children include mini-bathrobes, bucket and spades and cuddly toys and under fives can also eat for free with their parents. Chuon Chuon Kids’ Club also provides free snacks for little people to munch their way through the day and babysitting can be arranged for a very reasonable price. For those with older children, Four Seasons runs an excellent concept of 'Young Adults Club' in their resorts - a space with table tennis, table football and pool where older kids can hang out. There really is very little that hasn't been thought of here, a superb choice for anyone.
