Pared-down perfection: Amanoi, Vietnam

Perched on a remote cliff along the jagged coastline of Vietnam’s Nui Chua National Park, Amanoi has it all: a chilled-out beach club, a serene spa, and plenty of facilities for a stay as relaxing or active as guests decide to make it.

I stayed at the resort for two nights as part of a press trip I took for The Telegraph – you can find my full review of Amanoi here.

Tips

Most of the villas come with private swimming pools large enough for laps. They cost a bit more, but are worth the splurge.
The closest airport, Cam Ranh, is a 70-minute ride away. Airport transfers by way of wifi-equipped luxury car are included in the room rate.
Even if you’re not big on spas (like myself), the signature Aman massage treatment is a must.
