Mui Ne holidays are fast becoming a popular option for a Vietnam beach retreat. It's hardly surprising that this former fishing village in Phan Thiet used to be a lesser known surfers’ paradise — sparkling shores and rolling golden sands await, and the impressive stretch of beach is now complemented by a range of great value local bars, shops and restaurants. The area is a popular extension from Ho Chi Minh City, and has a drier climate than its neighbours due to the remarkable rusty-red and white dunes on its outskirts — a desert landscape sculpted by almost constant oceanic winds into breathtaking shapes.

The jungle-clad Hon Heo Peninsula overlooks this tranquil bay which offers an escape from the hustle and bustle of Nha Trang. It is only accessible by boat so it has a castaway vibe and is wonderfully peaceful and private. It is home to one of Vietnam's most charming hideaways, Six Senses Ninh Van Bay, a stunning and secluded eco-chic resort. This luxurious resort is the perfect hideway for nature lovers in search of relaxation, superb cuisine and a choice of activities. Thatched villas are nestled on the hillside, perched on the rocks or right by the beach and each one offers a private plunge pool, refreshing outdoor shower and dedicated butler.

Enchanting Halong Bay is a UNESCO World Heritage area of natural beauty known locally as ‘dragon descending to the sea’. It lies in the Gulf of Tonkin in Vietnam’s north east and is home to around 2000 limestone karsts, islets and grottos that stud the serene waters. A cruise in a traditional junk is the best way to experience the bay’s stunning beauty.

Just off Vietnam’s south-west coast in the Gulf of Thailand, Phu Quoc is the country’s largest island and an increasingly popular destination thanks to its tropical climate with year-round warm temperatures. It has swathes of forests and hills to the north and east but its brilliant white-sand beaches are the main attraction, from buzzing tourist spots in the south to tranquil fishing villages along the relatively undiscovered northern coastline. The market in its capital Duong Dong is as frenetic as you’d expect from a South-East Asian town, but the island also has quieter spots with plenty of authentic Vietnamese charm including temples and pagodas. For an unforgettable bird’s-eye view over clear waters and swarms of fishing boats, hop on the newly built Hon Thom cable car — the longest non-stop cable car in the world. The island is easily accessible by boat and regular flights mean you can easily get from Phu Quoc to Ho Chi Minh City in under an hour; we’d recommend combining the two places for a unique blend of historic city and island retreat.
