Vietnam Leisure Travel
VietnamRest and relaxation are easy to find in laid-back Vietnam, even in the chaotic capital of Hanoi and the busy streets of Saigon! Find any street-side cafe, order a Vietnamese iced coffee, and watch the world go by, or step into a tranquil spa and enjoy a long massage with a cup of green tea. Leisure travel in Vietnam is never far away.
Travel outside of the cities, to Mai Chau or Ninh Binh, and you can find yourself lying in a hammock in a peaceful village nestled among rice paddies. Or head to Vietnam's seaside destinations — including a tropical island or two — to find a more leisurely pace and put your feet up for a few days of nothing but rest and relaxation beside the sea. Of course, you can also plan a few nature walks or cultural tours to fit in around naps in the sun and long lunches of delicious local food. The enchanting town of Hoi An is perfect for this.
Take plenty of time to enjoy your surroundings with Vietnam's boutique and luxury accommodations in stunning locations.
Vietnam Highlights
A curated look at the best Vietnam has to offer. These are the destinations that consistently stand out — places with real character, great experiences, and something worth going out of your way for.
Hoi An
If ever Vietnam had its own storybook town, it would be Hoi An. It’s a rare traveler who fails to be taken in by Hoi An’s rich history and enchanted by its shimmering lanterns.
Explore DestinationPhu Quoc Island
Located in the glittering expanse of the Gulf of Thailand, Phu Quoc is Vietnam’s very own island paradise. Neighbouring the similarly paradisiacal islands of Cambodia, Phu Quoc features long stretches of idyllic sand; dense untouched jungle, and a growing collection of mega resorts. But with over 221.6 square miles (574 sq km) of land, there is still a slice of island for everyone.
Explore DestinationDa Nang
Da Nang is an essential port city in central Vietnam, on the coast between Hoi An and Hue. Visitors who stay here get to experience the nightlife, interesting local art, and beautiful hikes up the nearby Marble Mountains.
Explore DestinationPhan Thiet
Phan Thiet is one of the most accessible port cities in southern Vietnam and is the gateway to the beach town of Mui Ne. The two destinations are fairly interchangeable and most visitors will pass between the two to visit popular attractions. Whether you stay in Mui Ne bay north of Mui Ne Cape or south on the public Phan Thiet beaches, the joy in this area is getting out beyond the beach.
Explore DestinationCon Dao Islands
Located nearly 62 miles (100 km) off the coast of southern Vietnam, the Con Dao islands are some of the most remote places you can travel in Vietnam. Boasting picture-perfect beaches and some of the most luxurious resorts in the country, Con Dao is a very special island getaway. Con Dao is an archipelago of 15 islands and the biggest, Con Son, was once a brutal penal colony. Today, it is a seldom visited but staggeringly beautiful collection of islands that likely won’t stay quiet for too long.
Explore DestinationCat Ba Island
White sand beaches, rugged mountains, and rural villages make up the 110 square miles (259 sq km) of Cat Ba Island. The largest among thousands of limestone islands in magnificent Halong Bay, Cat Ba is a popular overnight stop on traditional cruise itineraries. Visitors stay here to experience untouched jungles, star-lit skies, and a laid back atmosphere.
