The Huffington Post newspaper on Oct. 13 saying Nam Hai resort on Vietnam's central coast should be on foreign tourists' travel radar right now.

Unlike the hastily built high-rise development that marked growth in the 70s and 80s, Nam Hai which opened in 2006, has won numerous accolades for its minimalist architecture. Te resort "is a study in low-key opulence, composed of clean-lined gray marble, infinity pools that melt into the horizon and glossy teak-paneled villas,” wrote the newspaper.


The paper also highlighted the spa at the Nam Hai which featured eight individual suites that overlook a lilypad-strewn lagoon. The resort boasts views of the Marble Mountains and makes use of the region's sandy soil and dunes in its 18-hole course. A few properties over, the just-opened Danang Golf Club features a Greg Norman-designed course that is the only one of its kind in Asia.

With so many new properties set to open in the next few years, the area covering Nam Hai resort and Hoi An town was on the verge of big changes, the Huffington Post predicted./.
