Danang’s attractions as a summer destination are varied and well known, with its beaches praised as the most beautiful in Southeast Asia.
June through August is the best time to visit Danang because the rainy season is yet to arrive and its proximity to the Pacific Ocean means travellers would be able to bask in the radiant sunlight overlooking the gorgeous blue sea.
This makes it particularly appealing for first-time visitors to Vietnam as well as those returning to places they miss the most.
While the city and its environs have something for everyone, including stunning landscapes, ancient monuments and modern attractions like the Dragon Bridge and the Golden Bridge, many summer travellers are just looking for luxurious, ocean-side leisure.
And there is no better place for this than the Sheraton Grand Danang Resort, located halfway between the city’s downtown area and Hoian accient town.
Quiet, spacious and luxurious, the resort is a great choice for families, friends, couples and even solo travelers, particularly given several offers this summer.
The resort takes full advantage of one of Danang’s most appealing features – particularly beautiful coastline. In contrast to crowded downtown beaches, the Sheraton resort’s epic Non Nuoc beachfront enchants with soft waves and soft sands well away from the madding crowd.
This does not mean the resort is only about gorgeous backgrounds for photos and quiet moments. It has an enticing range of water sports activities. In-house equipment that can be rented out include catamarans, body boards, surfboards, kayaks and standup paddle board (SUP). Under the safe supervision of resort instructors, newbies and seasoned sports enthusiasts alike can enjoy these water sports all day long.
Facilitating this is the amazing convenience of the beach being just a few steps from one’s room as also an enormous pool stretches 250 meters long, making it the longest infinity pool in Vietnam along with a dedicated children’s play area.
Guests can also go snorkeling, play football, volleyball and Frisbee, not to mention ride by bicycle around the property with different kinds of flowers blooming in profusion.
Complimentary sunrise yoga sessions also attract many participants.
For those looking forward to nursing a cocktail rather than wield a boat paddle, the resort has introduced the Weekend Sundowner promotion wherein live music and BBQ platters that can be enjoyed atop bean bag chairs on the sand.
Stunning sunsets that spray the sky with gold, red, yellow and purple hues before being eased out gently by a star-spangled darkness provide a great lead into the weekly beach event every Saturday and Sunday. The ambience of live music, laughter and sand between one’s toes will linger for long in memory.
Sometimes, the desire to make every moment count can result in the hot sun inflicting unpleasant sunburns. Not to worry. Shine Spa for Sheraton has two unique treatments that use peppermint oils, natural plant extracts, vitamin E oil, and aloe gel to enable an expedited return to the waves and clear skies.
Perhaps the crown jewel among the promotions on offer is Sheraton Grand Danang Resort's Stay Longer Save More packages that make it possible for adults to relive the freedom and thrills of summer vacations that they looked forward to with bated breath.
