Hotel Overview

Aria Blue Sapphire Apartment is located at 79 Đường D5, Thang Nhat Commune, with a range of self-contained, soundproofed apartments designed for short and extended stays. Each apartment features a full or simple kitchen outfitted with a refrigerator, coffee maker, washing machine, dryer, and all necessary cooking utensils, perfect for preparing light local meals after a day at the beach. Bedrooms come with plush linens, private en-suite bathrooms with bathtubs, free toiletries, and bathrobes, while living areas include comfortable seating, flat-screen TVs with Netflix and satellite channels, and work desks for remote workers. The property’s standout amenities include two outdoor pools (a free scenic pool open year-round and a second outdoor pool), a private beach area, a sun terrace, garden, and outdoor dining spaces with outdoor fireplaces for cool evenings. Free Wi-Fi covers the entire property, private parking is available (with valet service), and pets are welcome for no extra fee when requested in advance. The multilingual front desk (English and Vietnamese) offers private check-in, tour bookings, currency exchange, and paid airport transfers for seamless travel. Additional perks include daily cleaning, a public bath for relaxation, and access to off-site activities like windsurfing, fishing, and golf just three kilometers away.

Local Attractions

Just 15 minutes from the apartment, Vung Tau Front Beach is a lively stretch of coast lined with seafood shacks, palm trees, and walking paths, ideal for sunrise strolls and sunset swims. For panoramic coastal views, hike or drive up Nui Lon (Big Mountain) 20 minutes away, where you’ll find the iconic white Jesus statue standing 32 meters tall, with observation decks offering sweeping views of the South China Sea. Closer to the property, Ho May Park sits on Nui Nho (Small Mountain) and combines lush tropical gardens, historic French colonial ruins, and a cable car ride with unbeatable views over the coastline.

Travel Tips

Book your stay in advance during peak season (June to August) to secure ocean-view apartments, as this is a popular escape for Ho Chi Minh City weekend travelers. If you plan to explore the area, the property offers paid car rental, or you can hire a local motorbike for around 150,000 VND per day to get around easily. Don’t forget to try the fresh grilled squid and seafood hot pot at the local shacks along the private beach near the apartment—prices are lower than in central Vung Tau and the catch is always fresh. Finally, remember to notify the property in advance if you plan to bring your pet, as no extra fees apply but advance notice is required.
