AmanoiEST. 2013

Amanoi is hugged by rolling hills, overlooking picturesque Vinh Hy Bay, situated in Nui Chua National Park, with the coastline looking like it must have done for centuries. Rocky promontories rear into the East Sea, protecting white smiles of sand and shrugging off dusky green hills.

Set high on a wide promontory, Amanoi lies 55 kilometres south of Cam Ranh Airport in a region renowned for its spectacular mountain and coastal scenery. Magnificent views unfold from the hilltop infinity pool and the Central Pavilion, which houses the Restaurant, the Bar and a library. Down on the shore, the Beach Club, with its dining area and second swimming pool, overlooks a private sandy beach, lapped by the coral-rich waters of a marine reserve. Impressive views are a feature of all Amanoi's accommodation, which captures vistas of Nui Chua National Park, the property's lake, Vinh Hy Bay and the East Sea.

Designed by Jean-Michel Gathy of Denniston International, Amanoi is a contemporary beach resort that encapsulates everything Aman strives to achieve: peace, intimacy, privacy and a sense of place. Its essence is Vietnamese - from the curving rooflines peeping above the tree line, to the pathway lamps inspired by fishermen's baskets. Set in the 29,000-hectare are of Nui Chua National Park, Amanoi went to great lenghts to minimise the reosrt's visual impact on environment, not trying to impose a design on the location, but rather let the landscape dictate where each element fell.

A spectacular setting with rocky promontory, dramatic cliffs, private beach, thick evergreen vegetation and very private and intimate experience.

Amanoi's Spa Houses are the very first of its kind in the world, which offer private spa therapist and exclusive spa facilities, including treatment room, steam room, jacuzzi, Hammam or Banya treatment room, infinity pool, dining and relaxation area.
