Within you there is a stillness and sanctuary to which you can retreat at any time and be yourself.” – Hermann Hesse

Anmira's story begins with the fragrance of frangipani blossoms. These flowers are known for their quiet resilience: they flourish even in harsh conditions and keep a sense of clarity and peace.

From that scented garden, the spirit rises like a kite carried by the wind. In the art of holding and releasing the string, Anmira finds a metaphor for the balance modern life seeks: harmony between rest and renewal, between stillness and movement.

At Anmira, guests become part of the natural flow of the place. They're welcomed by a team that cherishes local heritage and offers warm, sincere hospitality. The resort is built from honest materials shaped by local aesthetics and follows the unhurried rhythm of Hội An. Every step invites guests to reconnect with themselves, and their own memories become part of the area's deep cultural story.

Anmira invites travellers to fill the quiet spaces of contemporary life and find a lasting sense of peace.

A short boat ride from Hoi An's bustling streets lands you on the peaceful Con Ba Xa Islet, where this thoughtfully crafted retreat takes Vietnamese wellness traditions seriously. Each of the pool villas sits amidst lush gardens with the Thu Bon River providing the soundtrack - morning mist rolling off the water, local boats puttering past, fishermen casting nets in the golden evening light. The daily wellness journey draws on Southern Herbology (Thuốc Nam), the traditional folk medicine that Vietnamese families have used for generations. You'll visit the on-site apothecary to select your herbal remedies before settling into steam treatments and therapeutic massages that feel worlds away from typical hotel spa menus. Between treatments, bamboo bicycle trails wind through nipa forests, and traditional artisan workshops reveal the crafts that made Hoi An famous.

At first glance, the triple-decker ship has the look of a hotel adrift on the Mekong Delta, water rippling like silk at the bow. Dressed in a coat of wood and metal, the Aqua departs from Ho Chi Minh City to meander past tiny villages and floating markets. Along the way, trace the country roads on a bicycle or birdwatch from the comfort of a rooftop lounger - photographers at the ready! Serene interiors create a relaxing place to rest after a busy day packed with activities. Evenings are spent watching a classic at the cinema or enjoy the sunset over a cocktail.

Vietnam's Mekong Delta is a mesmerising maze of waterways, floating markets and emerald-green palm groves – but most visitors only scratch the surface. These private sampans, sized to navigate the narrowest tributaries, take you somewhere entirely different: canals too slim for commercial boats, villages untouched by tourism, and encounters with rice paper makers, coconut farmers and brick artisans who've honed their crafts for generations. Recognised as a Lonely Planet 'Top Choice', the experience is refreshingly intimate – a dedicated crew of four or five looks after everything from five-course dinners to cycling excursions through the countryside. It's slow travel at its finest, drifting through Ben Tre's legendary 'Coconut Kingdom'.

Pu Luong Valley Home is a rustic eco-lodge in the centre of Don Village, in the heart of Vietnam’s Pu Luong valley, which puts the main sights within easy reach: Uoi village, the market at Pho Doan, Kho Muong and Bat Cave. It’s run by its sister, Pu Luong Retreat, and built in the same style from stone, bamboo, wood and palm leaves, with two small rivers curling around the grounds. Every room looks over terraced rice fields to the mountains, and so do the infinity pool and the open-air restaurant. For families and small groups who want peace away from the crowds, it’s a lovely base.

In strolling distance of Ho Chi Minh City's sweeping boulevards and jam-packed markets, Fusion Suites is a finely-tuned home away from home, where the interiors are cosy and casual and the suites pristine and pretty. The in-house bakery provides cakes fresh out of the oven (flavours range from red artichoke flowers to rich chocolate - tell us more!), and after a day of exploring the city, a rooftop cocktail is the only way to top it off. Speaking of which, there are plenty of historic sights to discover and a whole lot of shopping to be done all in a stone's throw from the hotel.
