The villa combines Vietnamese culture with western comforts to give you a relaxing, boutique home-from-home.
Vietnamese architects Cong and Phuong Nguyen designed the villa, transporting the late 19th century wooden columns and structure of an ancient building that belonged to a senior officer of the Nguyen Dynasty, over 120km from Hue. They then lovingly reconstructed the traditional wooden frame in its new home, before incorporating a modern twist to create a beautiful and unique space with eight ensuite bedrooms.
We strive to be zero-waste and plastic-free, and invite you to support us in reducing local environmental issues as we work towards a Gold Award with Travelife to benchmark our commitment.

Step out of the sala into the garden and walking meditation labyrinth, perfect for guided group activities or focused internal journeying.
Hammocks and seating are also carefully placed in secluded areas to allow space for reading and quiet moments of reflection.
The meditation space on the first floor of the villa provides an acoustically beautiful and alternative setting for more intimate workshops. A projector and screen are available, and can be used either here or in the yoga sala.
The Gratitude spa has a massage space with table, and a separate therapy room should you wish to run 1:1 sessions during your retreat. We are also able to arrange visiting masseurs and offer a variety of additional healing modalities to supplement your retreat should you wish.
The snug provides a cosy communal space with board games, library of wellness books and crafting activities. This space can be opened into the meditation room and sunset balcony to provide an open-plan environment when needed.
