Anantara Hoi An Resort

Set on the peaceful banks of the Thu Bon River, Anantara Hoi An Resort feels like a quiet retreat, yet the heart of Hoi An’s Ancient Town is only a short walk away. With its colonial-inspired architecture, tropical gardens, and relaxed atmosphere, it’s easy to see why this has long been one of Hoi An’s most beloved hotels.

The resort’s 94 rooms and suites are spacious and filled with natural light, with views over the gardens or the river. The split-level design gives the rooms a charming residential feel, while private porches and sitting areas invite you to slow down and enjoy the surroundings.

One of the highlights of staying here is its riverside setting. Mornings are wonderfully peaceful, while evenings are perfect for dinner overlooking the water as fishing boats drift by. The resort’s private jetty also offers sunset cruises along the Thu Bon River, a lovely way to experience Hoi An from a different perspective.

From the hotel, it’s an easy stroll into the ancient town to explore lantern-lit streets, old merchant houses, local cafés, and art galleries. If you have more time, An Bang Beach, traditional craft villages, and the UNESCO-listed My Son Sanctuary all make excellent day trips.

Anantara Hoi An Resort strikes a wonderful balance between tranquillity and convenience, making it an excellent choice for couples, honeymooners, and anyone looking for a refined stay in one of Vietnam’s most charming destinations.
