Without the rain showers further north, or the crowds of the south, this resort offers an idyllic place to spend Tet. Now, Villa Le Corail, A Gran Meliá Hotel, the first and only five-star Gran Meliá branded resort in South East Asia, is inviting its domestic and international guests to experience a vacation like no other in this alluring corner of Vietnam.
Tet Gran Meliá Hotel Nha Trang: seafront serenity for the ‘Year of the Snake’
Ring in the Year of the Snake surrounded by a lush countryside and unspoiled shorelines that surround the city of Nha Trang are visually stunning and spiritually inspiring. Perched on a secluded peninsula overlooking Fairy Mountain, Turtle Island and the sparkling seascape of Nha Trang Bay, Villa Le Corail is an oasis of tranquillity that captures the true essence of Nha Trang, with a choice of spectacular designer villas, world-class culinary venues, bespoke rituals and curated experiences on land and at sea.
Luxurious villas for every Tet celebration
At Villa Le Corail, a collection of one-, two-, three- and four-bedroom villas set the stage for every Tet getaway, from intimate couples’ breaks to grand family vacations. Amid the ambience of a Mediterranean village, loved ones can unwind in contemporary, light-filled living spaces, with bespoke furnishings from some of Europe’s top design studios, alfresco decks, infinity pools and panoramic views of the gardens, mountains, lagoon or ocean. The newest additions to the resort’s accommodation, the breath-taking Gran Ocean Villas, have been tailored by Roberto Cavalli Home Interiors and Italy’s distinguished Minotti brand and include the Vitesse Villa, which is inspired by the Dynamiq GT115 superyacht from Porsche Design to escort guests on the adventure of a lifetime.
Uncover the wonders of the ocean
A choice of ‘Exceptional
Experiences’ will connect guests to the heart and soul of this dreamy destination, including the chance to discover the timeless beauty of the ocean. A private ‘Catamaran Voyage’ glides smoothly across the shimmering sea – past idyllic islands, blissful beaches and magnificent mountains – while stopping for immersive activities such as snorkelling and paddle-boarding along the way. The sheltered nature of Nha Trang Bay and gradual sloping beaches create the perfect conditions for swimming, so parents can rest assured that their little ones are safe in the sea.
The purity of the ocean can also inspire a desire to preserve the planet. At Villa Le Corail, which has a deep commitment to marine conservation, eco-conscious travellers can dive into a curated ‘Coral Discovery’, which is led by a dedicated marine biologist and teaches guests how to attach new coral fragments to a blossoming young reef. For a dive into the history of marine research and conservation in Nha Trang, the century-old National Oceanographic Museum is a must-visit attraction for curious explorers.
Hispania restaurant
Tet Gran Meliá Hotel serves sublime Spanish cuisine
In both Vietnamese and Spanish cultures, gastronomy is a key element of any celebration. At Villa Le Corail, discerning diners can discover Vietnam’s finest Spanish cuisine at Hispania, the first Asian outpost for acclaimed Spanish chef Marcos Morán, who operates Michelin-starred restaurants in Europe. Exquisite Japanese cuisine can be savoured at Shibui, which dazzles diners with its fresh flavours and highly artistic presentation. For foodies who want a hands-on culinary journey, the ‘Private Cooking Experience’ commences with a trip to a local fishing market, before returning to Hispania to craft Chef Marcos’ signature seafood paella, accompanied with homemade sangria. Every participant will then be presented with a recipe book as a memento of their day.
Throughout Lunar New Year, guests will be fully immersed in the spirit of Tet at Villa Le Corail. Following an exhilarating Lion Dance Ceremony on 29 January to launch the celebrations and spread good luck and cheer throughout the resort, a series of uplifting culinary occasions will help all guests to experience the essence of the Spring Festival.
At Hispania, diners can savour A Taste of Spain with a festive five-course Tet dinner (28 January to 2 February), while a stunning Six-Course Signature Set at Shibui (28 January to 2 February) will showcase seasonal Japanese delights and highly artistic presentation.
“Lunar New Year is a precious opportunity to reconnect with loved ones, but it can also be a busy time of year, with large numbers of visitors and high demand for attractions. The lush landscapes and seascapes around Nha Trang provide the perfect setting for families to escape the crowds and create deeply personal moments in peace and seclusion. With our serene seafront location, spacious villas, and our focus on authentic, local and sustainable experiences, Villa Le Corail, A Gran Meliá Hotel is an oasis of tranquillity and adventure where everlasting memories are made,” said GM Beatriz Ávila.
