Much like the accommodations, the spa houses bear traditional influences.
Flanked by lush rolling hills with views of Vinh Hy Bay, a two-hour-drive south of Nha Trang, luxe Vietnamese resort Amanoi has raised the bar with the recent launch of its spa houses: Thuy Lien and An Son. These two new additions to the property carry Aman’s signature simplicity, with clean lines, local touches, and a secluded setting that makes the most of its natural surroundings.
Thuy Lien Spa House boasts a hammam and views of the lotus lake, while An Son beckons with a wooden-clad banya and vistas of the Nui Chua National Park, but both feature top-of-the-line amenities, an outdoor infinity pool, a Jacuzzi, and a steam room that houses an ice fountain and a cold plunge pool. Staying overnight is also an option, as the pavilions’ bedroom and living areas are equipped for two to four guests.
Each treatment room features a mural by Vietnamese artist Bui Huu Hung.
In terms of what’s on the menu, each house packs plenty of options. Treatments incorporate techniques such as reiki, Chi Nei Tsang, and acupressure, while therapies comprise two categories: Bodywork and Energywork. With programs that include yoga, pilates, pranayama, and meditation, the former is perfect for guests looking for a slice of tranquility. But if you’d rather work up a sweat, then opt for one of the Energywork sessions, which range from kickbocking and TRX classes to circuit training and bootcamps.
Further enhancing the experience are the hillside resort’s brand new wellness immersions. Rooted in traditional Eastern philosophy, the weight loss program here offers nutritional consultations, daily spa sessions, and curated meal plans. Those in need of stress relief will delight in the resort’s Movement, Mindfulness & Stress Control immersion, which focuses on purification and inner healing. Meanwhile, Amanoi’s detox program aims to restore balance to the mind and body, making it the perfect choice for 9-to-5ers and travelers leading a fast-paced lifestyle.
