Various commercial centers for rest and relaxation are all over the place such as the Louisiane Brewhouse, Evason Ana Mandara and Six Senses Spa, and Vinpearl Resort and Spa.

Danang was once a fighting area during the tough times of the Vietnam War. Today, it is now known for its beaches that are perfect for scuba diving and swimming. It also has a luxurious resort to match in the form of the Furama Resort. My Khe Beach, otherwise known as China Beach, was once a place of recreation for the US military but is now bathed in pines and coconuts, a backdrop for tai chi classes or just lounging around.

Doc Let

Doc Let is merely 30 miles from the beach town of Nha Trang, offering a very different experience to its visitors than its nearby neighbor. This is beach paradise for those visitors who are looking for a quiet and peaceful place, taking a break from the hustle of the busy city life. The Paradise Resort Hotel offers bungalows and tasty meals to its guests while the White Sand Doc Let Resort and Spa offers luxurious rooms with world-class facilities and services.

Phan Thiet

Phan Thiet is a fishing village and is just a 3-hour long drive from Saigon; this makes this the most accessible place to spend a weekend at the beach.
