Beach & Island Escapes
Vietnam’s coastline runs over 3,000 kilometers, but the stretches worth building a holiday around are still few – Con Dao, reachable only by a short flight from Ho Chi Minh City, empty enough that a private beach isn’t an exaggeration; the outer islands off Nha Trang, where the boat ride is half the point; Phu Quoc’s western coast, where sunsets run long enough to finish a drink slowly. This collection gathers those places, along with a handful of island escapes further afield across the region, chosen less for how they photograph and more for what they’re actually like to wake up in. Expect resorts with real distance between rooms, water clear enough to see your own feet in, and itineraries that leave space to do very little. Some trips lean toward diving and boat days; others are built entirely around doing nothing. Browse below and find the coast and the pace that suits you.

Recommended beach holiday itinerary ideas
These are starting points, not fixed packages a sense of pacing and possibility for how a trip like this could come together. Every itinerary we actually build is different, shaped around who’s traveling and how much time you have. Consider these a jumping-off point, not the full list.
The best beach escapes don’t shout for attention they simply give you room to breathe. Our luxury beach holidays lean into that quiet: private beachfront resorts, remote island retreats, stretches of coastline where privacy isn’t an add-on but the whole point. Every detail is handled so you don’t have to think about it – the right room facing the right sunset, the right pace for slow mornings and long dinners. Explore the collection below and find the coastal journey that suits how you actually want to spend your days.
Choosing an outdoor activity vacation – our expert guides.
Our specialists know these trips well enough to tell you what’s actually worth your time: which trails, dives, or day excursions deliver, and which accommodations suit the pace of an active holiday. Consider this a starting point – practical suggestions from people who plan these journeys for a living, not just a list of places to consider.”
