Rooms

The 100 villas are designed in an understated, contemporary style, with split-level interiors and wooden platforms. All the villas occupy their own area of the landscaped gardens, and feature large bedrooms and living spaces and luxurious bathrooms, as well as all the in-room facilities you would expect from such a hotel.

In the two, three, four and five-bed villas, the bedrooms are set in separate bedroom pavilions, so while these are ideal for couples and friends sharing, they may not be suitable for families with small children.

Please note that the rooms have an oriental design with the bed situated on a raised plinth in the center of the room. At night, or in low lighting this can present a bit of a hazard as there are a number of different levels throughout the room. We advise all guests to please take care.

Also, for twin rooms the hotel only offers 'Hollywood twin' bed set up (two twin mattresses together on the raised bed platform).

The cobbled paths between villas and the restaurant and reception are dimly lit at night and the surfaces are uneven. The hotel offers buggy transfers on request and we recommend making use of this service particularly if you are unsteady on your feet or are visually impaired. Torches are also provided in all rooms.

Location

The resort is located on Ha My Beach, a long sweep of blonde sand. There are a few other well-spaced resorts set along the beach which you can walk to, although due to some clever landscaping, the hotel feels quite secluded. The historic town of Hoi An, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is only a ten-minute drive away and has plenty to discover should you want to explore along with a good range of shops, bars and restaurants.

Food and drink

The main restaurant, La Sen, offers a huge buffet breakfast and a fusion of international and Asian cuisines for dinner. Guests may choose to sit inside or outside, where you can enjoy the views over the water gardens and ocean.

A second restaurant, Café Nam Hai, is set next to the pool serving pizza, fresh fish and Vietnamese comfort food for lunch and contemporary Vietnamese dishes for dinner.

There are also two bars, one by the main restaurant and one on the beach with sea views, gentle lounge tunes and a relaxed atmosphere.

Families

The pool villas are ideal for those with young children, as they can play freely in the villa's private grounds without disturbing other guests, and the villa staff are always on hand to help. There's a children's pool, but it does have some very deep areas and several sharp corners, making it unsuitable for very young children.

There's also a Kids' Activity Villa where children aged 4 to 12 can try some traditional Vietnamese activities, such as making conical hats and traditional lanterns, as well as the usual sports and board games. Children can also enjoy time in the hotel's garden, caring for the plants and picking local herbs and organic vegetables. Activities are divided into two age groups: 4 to 6 and 7 to 12.

A babysitting service is available for a charge.

Facilities and activities

The resort offers a variety of facilities including a library, a business hub and spa. The Nam Hai Cooking Academy offers daily lessons, including some aimed at children. For the more active there is also a gym, three infinity pools, four tennis courts, a badminton court, table tennis and a half-size basketball court.

A variety of water sports are available including waterskiing and wakeboarding. Kayaks and sailboats are provided on a complimentary basis.

Located right on the beachfront, there’s 1 km (0.6 miles) of sand to walk along. Please be aware however that the sea is often rough with strong currents. There may not always be lifeguards present or a red flag system in operation. You are advised to check with hotel staff before swimming.

Environmental and social responsibility

The Four Seasons The Nam Hai are committed to preserving and regenerating the environment and leaving a positive, enduring impact on the local community. Some of their commendable sustainability initiatives in place include providing energy that is sourced from renewable or carbon-free sources; villas equipped with solar-powered water heating systems; on-site herb, vegetable and fruit farm which supplies their restaurants, bars and spa; and a local biodiversity support program which includes daily beach cleaning and the use of native plants in landscaping.

Local excursions

We recommend exploring Hoi An, a World Heritage Site. After strolling the cobbled streets admiring the 17th-century architecture, merchant houses and riverside shops, it’s an ideal place to stay on for dinner.

If you’d like to head further afield, there are plenty of scenic and historic sites nearby, including the Marble Mountains, My Son and Hue. The hotel will be happy to help you arrange excursions.

Spa Facilities

The spa at the Nam Hai features eight tranquil spa villas, surrounded by a lotus pond. There’s an extensive range of treatments from facials and massage to bathing ceremonies and Reiki healing. There’s a yoga deck and resident yogi offering daily classes.
