Experience

Open kitchen or the endless horizon? Soak up both and more sensory pleasures among The Nam Hai’s three dining venues. Cool mornings call for Eastern and Western breakfast favourites on the outdoor deck of The Restaurant. Come back in the evening for fusion fare in the sleek low lit dining room, and be sure to experience some of the best Indian cuisine anywhere. Refuel at midday with comfort foods, a chilled glass of wine and the day’s freshest catch at The Beach Restaurant, which transforms after nightfall with an extensive menu of Vietnamese delicacies. Before and after, The Bar makes a memorable impression as much for its serene setting high above the water gardens as its creative cocktails and live entertainment.

The enchanting town of Hoi An, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is just 15 minutes away. With the old town traffic free except for bicycles and cyclos it is the perfect place to wander round and soak up the atmosphere, After marvelling at century-old houses and shops, one may venture out to the outskirts and or take a short boat ride to visit the other communes mostly situated near the river – from the expansive rice paddies to villages specializing in pottery, furniture, basket weaving, rice paper making, woodworking and other industries that still thrive to this day. In the evening the narrow streets lit by the light of hundreds of lanterns are lined with restaurants serving delicious Vietnamese cuisine.

There is no need to venture far from the surrounding of The Nam Hai for both the active and those who seek relaxation. Three beautiful swimming pools with views to the ocean, a fitness centre complete with the latest equipment, badminton and tennis courts are all on site for the energetic, while The Montgomerie Links is close by for those who want a round of golf. For those seeking more relaxation, yoga sessions overlooking the South China Sea are available each morning.  Possibly the ultimate relaxation experience must be The Spa, where eight treatment pavilions appear to float like the surrounding lotus flowers over the serene lagoon.
