VIETNAM

Hoi An

Beautiful streets, great food and a slower rhythm.

Falling for Hoi An.

We started our trip in Da Nang and spent a couple of days enjoying walks up and down My Khe Beach. It was a relaxed start, but the trip really ramped up when we arrived in Hoi An.

We were blown away by the beautiful shopping streets and the bougainvillea growing and flowering almost everywhere. It was one of those places where simply walking around became part of the experience.

We had clothes made, bought handmade leather goods and picked up some art, while the restaurants were another highlight. There always seemed to be another shop, restaurant or beautiful street worth exploring.

We stayed at Grand Signature Resort by M Village, just a short taxi ride from the Old Town. We can't speak highly enough of this hotel. The room product was great, there were multiple swimming pools and the kids loved playing paddle and pool. Most of all, they really looked after us there.

OUR RECOMMENDATIONS

Places & experiences we loved.

01

Grand Signature Resort

Our standout hotel in Hoi An. Great room product, multiple pools and fantastic service made it a brilliant choice for our family.

02

Hoi An Old Town

Spend time simply wandering the beautiful streets. The shopping, architecture and flowering bougainvillea make every walk feel special.

03

Made-to-measure clothes

Hoi An is a great place to have clothes made. Shopping becomes part of the experience rather than something you need to rush through.

04

Handmade leather

We bought handmade leather goods and loved discovering the different shops and makers around the town.

05

The restaurants

Food was a big part of what made Hoi An work for us. There are plenty of restaurants to discover while wandering around town.

06

My Khe Beach

Start the trip with a couple of days in Da Nang, walking My Khe Beach and easing into the slower pace before heading to Hoi An.

Give Hoi An time to wander.

The real magic for us was not one particular sight. It was walking through the streets and seeing the bougainvillea flowering almost everywhere, stopping to look in shops and finding another restaurant whenever we felt like eating.

We loved having clothes made and picking up handmade leather goods and art. Hoi An makes shopping feel personal and enjoyable rather than like a checklist of things to buy.

And having Grand Signature Resort by M Village as our base made the whole experience even better. It was close enough to the Old Town by taxi, but gave us somewhere fantastic to return to, with great rooms, multiple pools and staff who really looked after us.

Hoi An.

Da Nang, My Khe Beach and the streets, shops, hotels and restaurants that made Hoi An such a memorable family trip.
