Alma Oasis Long Hai
Long Hai & Ho Tram | Superior
The seaside fishing village of Long Hai has been a well-kept secret amongst Saigon-ites for years. It’s close proximity to Ho Chi Minh City (a two hour journey along good roads), has made it a popular weekend escape for city dwellers wanting some beach R&R time. But it’s gradually opening up to the international tourist market. Don’t expect to find anything in the way of busy beach bars, tacky tourist shops or neon-lit restaurants; the vibe is slow-paced and the beach is quiet and un-commercialised - hence its appeal.
The Alma Oasis (sister property to the Alma Courtyard in Hoi An) is one of a handful of new properties to spring up in the region. Set on a slight hillside that leads down to the sea, it’s designed to resemble a Mediterranean village, with low-rise bungalows and villas scattered throughout the gardens. Accommodation interiors are contemporary and fresh, with predominantly white décor and furnishings that would feel a little stark if it wasn’t for the bold splashes of bright turquoise blue. Well-equipped with mod-cons, each room features a balcony or terrace with garden or ocean views. For additional space, there are a handful of two, three and four bedroomed villas that boast private pools.
For those not fortunate to be staying in a Pool Villa, there is a good-sized main swimming pool complete with a pool bar and poolside terrace that wouldn’t look out of place in a Mediterranean resort. The beachfront restaurant also has a Mediterranean beach vibe and offers a varied menu of Asian and Mediterranean cuisine as well as locally caught fresh seafood. As with all Alma properties it’s the spa that takes centre stage. Besides offering a wide choice of wellness treatments and activities, a daily 90-minute ‘spa journey’ is included for all guests.

A little slice of the Mediterranean on the south east coast of Vietnam, but best to avoid the weekends.Facilities
