Six Senses Ninh Van Bay and InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula are ranked seventh and 24th in the Readers Choice Awards 2022, respectively.

"With dramatic views over Vietnam's Ninh Van Bay and open-air, thatched-roof villas where you can soak in the scenery from a bathtub, this Six Senses outpost also boasts its own endangered monkey reserve," the magazine wrote.

Global travel booking site Booking.com commented: "Overlooking the sea, Six Senses Ninh Van Bay offers luxurious and spacious villas with private pools. It has a spa, four restaurants and is a 20-minute boat ride from Nha Trang town, Khanh Hoa province, south-central Vietnam."

The resort is a one-hour drive from Cam Ranh Airport.

Khanh Hoa is well known for top beach town Nha Trang and beautiful bays Nha Trang, Cam Ranh and Ninh Van.

Meanwhile, InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort takes 45 minutes from Danang Airport to reach. The Cham Museum is 25 kilometers away, while Hue Imperial Citadel, ancient town Hoi An and My Son Sanctuary, all popular UNESCO world heritage sites, are about 45 kilometers from the resort.

The resort's recreational options include cycling, fishing and hiking. Alternatively, guests can request a pampering massage and body treatments at the spa. There is also a modern fitness center on site.

"Though just 30 minutes from Da Nang Airport, InterContinental’s flagship Vietnam property feels much farther away from the real world," Conde Nast Traveler wrote.

In September, the resort was awarded Asia's Leading Luxury Resort title at the World Travel Awards 2022.

Danang, a tourism and business hub in central Vietnam, is home to Southeast Asia's most beautiful beaches like My Khe.
