For luxury travelers, the country’s relatively recent bloom means there aren’t quite as many high-end hotels here as elsewhere in this part of the world. However, the Six Senses Hideaway at Ninh Van Bay leaves little to be desired. Located in the coastal city of Nha Trang, this stunning hideaway boasts earth-toned rock pool villas set inside a serenely beautiful private cove. Possessing the same exclusive atmosphere as a private island, the resort is surrounded by white sands and striking mountains that create a feeling of being at one with nature.Jav Studens
