In Hoi An, where land meets sea in a shiver of timeless beauty, lies a haven, Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai, a place where the green of Vietnam’s heart pulses through five hectares of palms and dreaming waters.

The path to discover with Four Seasons in Hoi An begins with a four-day itinerary. Each experience is painted with care, a soft brushstroke of luxury and reverence for the soul of Vietnam.

Day 1 – The Quiet Bloom of Arrival

Step onto sacred ground. As you’re guided through the gardens to your villa, with its tropical vistas, the world outside fades into a memory. Dip your toes into one of the tiered infinity pools that cascade toward the ocean, each level a poem in blue, mirroring the endless sky.

When evening comes, follow the path to the Heart of the Earth Spa, where an ancient ritual awaits.

The Good Night Kiss to the Earth ceremony fills the air with the shimmering song of crystal singing bowls, a lullaby that wraps around the spirit. Dinner beckons at NAYUU, where Chef Alex Moranda weaves omakase like a tapestry, each dish an ode to the land and sea.

Day 2 – Into the Heart of Hoi An

Awaken to a morning awash in light, and head to Café Nam Hai for breakfast that feels as intimate as home. Later, at the Nam Hai Cooking Academy, learn the art of Vietnamese cuisine.

Afternoon unfolds in the ancient town of Hoi An, a UNESCO World Heritage site where time bends.

Drift through golden-lit streets, listen to the cobblestones murmur tales of traders long gone, and pause to sip coffee in the warm glow of a café. The Precious Heritage Museum is a living canvas—its portraits, its treasures, all fragments of Vietnam’s soul.

As twilight falls, dine amid lantern-lit paths in Hoi An or return to Café Nam Hai for a feast fit for royalty, where each bite carries a taste of tradition.

Day 3 – Threads of History and Waves of Flavour

For the early risers, there’s a gentle thrill in boarding a boat just as dawn touches the horizon. At the Sunrise Fish Market, witness the dance of nets and laughter, as families prepare their catch—saltwater stories unfolding beneath the new light.

For those with history’s call in their bones, the Champa temples of My Son await, an ancient symphony of stone that echoes like a half-remembered dream. Back at the resort, indulge in La Sen’s bistro delights—French and Vietnamese notes, mingling beside the ocean.

As evening descends, mount a vintage Vespa and let the Hoi An Vespa Foodie Adventure take you through bustling streets and soft alleyways, where the flavours of banh xeo and White Rose dumplings sing on your tongue. Or perhaps, drift along the Cua Dai River on a bamboo basket boat, where the sunset paints the sky in hues of honey and rose.

Day 4 – A Gentle Farewell

The last morning invites you into stillness, with yoga by a lotus-filled lagoon. The Heart of the Earth Spa, a sanctuary bathed in nature’s hush, waits with its rituals of crystal singing bowls, each sound in tune with the Earth’s hum, each treatment a salve for the soul.

With hearts full and steps light, guests leave The Nam Hai as if waking from a gentle dream, touched by Hoi An’s embrace and yet forever entwined in its memory.

For the Soul Seekers, the Lovers of Stories

For those who stay, the Resort unfurls yet more secrets—a Rhum Arrangé Experience at Distillerie d’Indochine, where the essence of sugarcane lingers on the lips like a promise kept. And in Hue, the old capital, wander through the grandeur of the Imperial City, sail down the Perfume River, and feel history’s breath on the back of your neck, its regal legends whispering just for you.

To step into Hoi An’s heart with Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai is to step into a world both ancient and ever-new, a place that holds each guest gently, like a precious stone, letting them sparkle in the light of this land.
