Attractions

Three unmissable Phú Yên attractions are all within a 30-minute drive of the hotel:

• Ganh Da Dia (The Rocky Reef): A dramatic stretch of interlocking hexagonal basalt columns jutting into the East Sea, this otherworldly geological site is one of Vietnam’s most photographed landmarks. Visit at low tide to explore tide pools teeming with small marine life, and catch sunrise for unobstructed views that draw photographers from across the country.
• Xep Beach: A quiet, crescent-shaped stretch of powdery white sand and calm, turquoise water, Xep Beach is perfect for a lazy day of swimming or sunbathing, away from the crowds of more developed Vietnamese beach destinations. Local vendors sell fresh grilled squid and coconut water along the shore for just a few dollars.
• Vung Ro Bay: A sheltered, scenic bay surrounded by rolling green hills, Vung Ro is famous as the site of the first North Vietnamese weapons shipment that sparked the Vietnam War. Today, it’s a peaceful spot to take a boat tour out to see hidden coves, visit a local fishing village, and sample some of the freshest lobster you’ll find in Vietnam.
