Hotel Review: Four Seasons The Nam Hai, Vietnam

Four Seasons The Nam Hai is set on one of the most spectacular beachfronts on the coast of Vietnam between Danang and Hoi An. We’ve always loved our stays at Four Seasons resorts around the world, thanks to their peaceful properties and stellar amenities and Nam Hai is no different. We absolutely loved the private villas and stunning views so watch our review on to find out what you need to know before you book.

The Four Seasons is approximately 40 minutes from Danang International airport and only 5 minutes from the town center of Hoi An. Four Seasons is perfectly situated for exploring the UNESCO world heritage site that makes up the historic town filled with custom tailors, beautiful shops and gorgeous ancient architecture. The property is 86 acres big and spans over a kilometer of beachfront, making it an incredible respite from the hectic city life. While the water as a bit rough during our stay in the winter, during many months of the year, guests can use kayaks to explore the sea just steps from their villas. The property is large and expansive, with lush gardens and beautiful foliage. Given it’s size, there is ample space to explore and meander the winding walkways.
Every room is a villa at Four Seasons and most rooms up to the suites are the exact same interior, just with different locations on property. The One-Bedroom, One-Bedroom Ocean View and One-Bedroom Beachfront all feature 860 square feet of beautiful interior space that are designed in a traditional Vietnamese style. We were in Beachfront Villa 5300 with a stunning, direct ocean view from our room.
As you enter the space, the bathroom is on the left side in the back of the villa and features a his and hers vanity, indoor and outdoor shower as well as a his and hers closet. The products are all made by Natura Bissé (one of my personal favorites) and refilled daily.
The main living space is encased in a canopy and contains a raised lounge bed with a sunken tub, sunken desk space and the king bed facing the view. There are a few steps down to a sunken living room set with access to the patio containing two oversized lounge beds on either side of the patio.
Overall, Cora Cora has a beautiful location, calm lagoon and a lot of positive experiences from up-to-date facilities to the exceptional coffee. There are a lot of options in the Maldives and we do hope that the steep competition helps bring the service and maintenance of the property up to value of the price tag they are selling rooms for. If you have booked this property, our tips for the best stay are to book pre-book your restaurant bookings, especially for Acquapazza and be sure to take advantage of the activities like Yoga and sound meditation by signing up through the app in advance as the small group classes do fill up quickly.
Overall, we had an amazing stay at the Four Seasons and can highly recommend the property for anyone looking to experience a luxury beachfront resort within a short drive of the most spectacular small town with excellent shopping and cultural experiences. If you’re looking to book the Four Seasons, be sure to reach out to us at [e-mail] to book with VIP benefits like a room upgrade, complimentary breakfast and a resort credit.

Loved your video! Brought me back to a beautiful vacation we spent in 2023 in Vietnam. Your review nailed it very well! That is (almost) how I felt about the property. However, we did not experience the service flaws at all. Service and food was exceptional. On the last day I had an ear infection and they went out and beyond to help me clam my pain, especially as I had to fly out to Bangkok that day. They have a nurse on sight for such incidents. Alle the waiters knew our names and knew what we liked.... Very personal indeed. We had a sea view room, slightly slanted to the sea, which had the privacy you were missing. The view was great from there. I highly recommend and it is cheaper that seafront. We loved to bike around the property, especially our kid. I agree with you that they need to upgrade some of the furniture. Otherwise a beautiful hotel next to the most picturesque town in Vietnam.

Thank you so much for your comment and for sharing your experience!! I'm so glad to know that others have had great experiences with service because we feel like the bones are there!! That's awesome. And totally agree- this is SUCH a fantastic property in now one of our favorite places in Vietnam :)

how beautiful life 🌴🏖♥

[@VoyagerGuru]

It really is a gorgeous resort!

[@dianareardon7333]

What a beautiful property but wow what a beach ! Just a side note, do the beaches have shells ?

[@VoyagerGuru]

haha yeah it's a huge and stunning beach! Yes there were lots of shells 🐚🐚

At the rates offered during Covid (nearly 50% discounted) it was great! But for the prices this hotel commands these days (usually over $1K per night) it’s not worth it. Amanoi down south is superior. And btw, while your transfer was free, they do charge for airport transfers which is absurd in Vietnam-especially with their room rates.

[@VoyagerGuru]

Hi there! Thanks for your comment :) amanoi is definitely on our list. We didn’t say the airport transfer was free, just that the shuttle to Hoi an is - that part is amazing. FS is an amazing jumping off point to the greater area. I have no doubt that amanoi is exceptional, as the brand is world renowned for its superior service. While I’m sure there are many incredible things to see in the Nha Trang area, specifically what makes this four seasons location so great is its proximity to Hoi An, Danang and Hue. There’s a lot of incredible history and culture in this region, in addition to its amazing beach. If you’re just comparing beach vacations, then it’s a fine comparison but if you’re looking at luxury properties in a specific region, the FS definitely hits the nail on the head.
As a side note, every 5 star property in Vietnam we stayed with charge American prices for transfers to the airport and none were free - let me know what hotels you stayed at with free airport transfers! Would love to know!

Resorts tend to insulate you from the place you are in rather than allowing you experience it. There is no appreciable difference between any of the four seasons properties. Why fly halfway around the world, when you could just go to Miami Beach?
There are so many hotels in Hoi A that you can’t throw a rock without hitting one. Most of tgem are much closer to old town, and give you a better chance to get around and see how locals do things. If you stay in town, the beach is a 25 minute bike ride through picturesque rice paddies with water buffalo doing their thing.
No matter what anyone says about the food in a resort, there’s just no way it can be better than what’s available outside the walls.
Please do yourself a favor and stay as far away as possible from this type of arrangement. If you are going to another country, enjoy it. Don’t travel to a bubble

While I agree that there are certainly many wonderful hotels in the area, there’s nothing wrong with wanting a lovely beach resort in a beautiful country that also does truly deep dive into Vietnamese culture. You must not have watched the video if you think it looks anything like Miami Beach 🤣. There’s quite literally nothing taller than a palm tree and everything is built in a traditional way. They even have maintained a temple on the grounds. They also urge guests to explore the area and include free shuttles to town. You can also use your bicycles :). I understand if you’re talking about a standard all inclusive resort, but I do have to argue that the four seasons is quite literally the opposite of that. I do truly appreciate your opinion but wanted to share my thoughts for any other readers who may see this comment :)
