Life Resort Hoi An

Home > Contents > Life Resort Hoi An

While its sister resort at Quy Nhon is all about sun, sea and Cham architecture, Life Resort Hoi An takes you back in time to the colonial days when Chinese and European traders strike up deals along old alleyways beside the river. The century-old shophouses, temples and clan houses are still preserved in an area called Hoi An Ancient Town, recognised as a Unesco World Heritage site, and the resort poised at the fringe of the ancient town, makes a good staging post. At Life Resort Hoi An, you wake up to the sound of traditional fishing boats chugging lazily along the Thu Bon River usually loaded with their daily catch of tourists, which is more lucrative than fishing nowadays.

The recently renovated Life Spa at the resort is spanking new and looks very modern on the inside. On the menu are a plethora of wellness options, ranging from cleansing rituals, massages and exfoliating treatments to a suite of skin and beauty treatments. Those tight for time can opt for the 30-minute express treatments that include hot stone therapies, aromatic oils and foot reflexology. If you have 80 minutes to spare, try their signature Harmony of Energy treatment which is a fusion of seven techniques. If you are lucky to have Thuong, one of their local therapists, working her magic, you will be slipping in and out of consciousness with scenes of old Hoi An flashing by. | www.life-resorts.com
