Nearby Local Attractions

Three can’t-miss spots are within easy reach of the hotel:

• Back Beach (Bai Sau): Just a two-minute walk from the hotel, this soft golden-sand beach is Vung Tau’s most beloved swimming spot, with calm, clear waters and a string of casual seafood shacks serving fresh grilled squid and coconut water. The private beach at Phu Quy Nhon is a quiet extension of this popular stretch.
• Vung Tau Lighthouse: Perched atop Nui Lon Mountain, 15 minutes by car from the hotel, this 19th-century French colonial lighthouse offers sweeping panoramic views of the coastline and the South China Sea. It’s especially popular for sunrise hikes, when the mist clears to reveal unobstructed ocean views.
• Jesus Christ Statue: One of Vung Tau’s most iconic landmarks, this 32-meter tall standing statue of Christ overlooks the coast from Nho Mountain, just 10 minutes from the hotel. Visitors can climb a spiral staircase inside the statue to the observation deck at the shoulders for one of the best views in the region.

Travel Tips

Vung Tau is just a two-hour drive from Ho Chi Minh City, making the hotel an easy weekend getaway. The hotel’s front desk staff speak Vietnamese, so having a translation app downloaded can help smooth check-in and any special requests. Book your stay during the dry season (December to April) for ideal beach weather, when rainfall is low and temperatures hover around a comfortable 25–30°C. Don’t forget to pack reef-safe sunscreen for days at the private beach, and ask the staff to help you book a fresh seafood dinner at one of the local family-run restaurants along Thuy Van Street for an authentic Vietnamese coastal experience.
