Hotel Overview

Florence Villa is located at 29 Đường 25, Florida 7, Novaworld Phan Thiết, putting it steps from the area’s golden coastline. The property boasts two stunning outdoor pools: both are free to use, open year-round, and include ocean-view infinity edges, heated warm water options, poolside sun loungers and umbrellas, plus a safety railing for the second pool that’s perfect for families with young children. Beyond the pools, guests enjoy direct access to a private beachfront, complimentary property-wide WiFi, free private parking with electric vehicle charging stations, and a full-service spa and fitness center (treatments are available for an extra fee).

All villas are outfitted with full kitchens stocked with utensils, a fridge, microwave, and electric kettle, plus separate living and dining areas with comfortable sofas and a fireplace for cool winter evenings. Bedrooms feature plush linens, private bathrooms with deep soaking tubs and free toiletries, and soundproofing for quiet nights. Villas also include private terraces or balconies, outdoor barbecue facilities, and options for ocean, garden, or courtyard views. Family-friendly perks include connecting family rooms, a children’s pool, kids’ play area, and available child safety gates and outlet covers, while on-site amenities include a restaurant, mini-market, and 24/7 security, with staff that speak both English and Vietnamese.

Local Attractions

Three unmissable attractions are within easy reach of Florence Villa. First, the iconic red sand dunes of Mui Ne are just 15 minutes’ drive away: visitors can slide down the rust-colored dunes on a plastic sled at sunrise or catch a golden sunset that’s perfect for photography. Second, Fairy Stream, a 10-minute drive from the villa, offers a gentle, ankle-deep walk between towering pink limestone cliffs and lush mangroves, ending at a hidden sand dune. Third, Phan Thiết Fishing Harbor, 20 minutes away, lets visitors join early morning tours to watch local fishermen unload their catch and sample fresh, cheap seafood at waterfront stalls.

Travel Tips

Book your stay during the dry season (December to April) for the calmest beach weather and best swimming conditions. If you plan to explore the area beyond Novaworld, rent a car or motorbike for easy day trips, as public transport in the resort area is limited. Take advantage of the villa’s barbecue facilities: pick up fresh seafood from a local market and cook your own feast on your private terrace for an unforgettable evening. Don’t forget to book spa treatments in advance, as popular slots fill up fast during peak travel season.
