Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai

The well-curated opulence and thoughtfulness that defines the Four Seasons brand is omnipresent here. For one thing, you won’t find guest rooms: each and every accommodation is a villa, beginning with an 861 square feet One-Bedroom Villa that’s tricked out with a curtain-fringed canopy bed, al fresco rainshower, private terrace, Bose sound system, and so much more. To live even larger, book the One-Bedroom Hilltop Pool Villa; it looks as if it was torn from the pages of Architectural Digest, with its sprawling pool decked by verdant lawns and 2,691 square foot floor plan. Did we mention you’ll have the pampering of a personal attendant during your stay there? Bliss, in any country.

A sleek yet welcoming retreat on the beach with a spa that appears to float on a lagoon; four entrancing restaurants (including a tiki bar); and bottomless activities.

Up-charging you. Guests will find there are plenty of complimentary exploits to choose from, ranging from writing love letters and then sending them off in the lotus pond to Vietnamese coffee tasting workshops.

The spa floating on the lotus-topped lagoon is a sight for sore eyes—and its treatment offerings leave you swooning, including local herb and salt scrubs and gold facials.

You’re not sure you could get more relaxed than you feel at this moment, with your toes in the sand at the resort’s Beach Bar. And then your waiter brings you your orchid-topped pandan pepper cocktail in a copper mug. “Aaaaah.”
