  • Come join us as we check in to one of the most luxurious destination resort in Da Nang Vietnam. Nestled within the mountainous Son Tra Nature Reserve paired with eclectic designs from our favorite hotel designer, Bill Bensley, the Intercontinental Danang definitely topped amongst one of our most memorable stays in Vietnam!

    03:08 - Room 509 Tour: Son Tra Terrace Suite Ocean View (Heaven Level)
    09:00 - PSA: Do not feed the monkeys. Since the resort is built within the nature reserve, interaction with wild animals was part of the experience. We saw them raiding our neighbors room while housekeeping was cleaning. So make sure to always keep your doors and windows closed!

    10:54 - Situation of Resort during Covid, we checked in late Feb 2020. All restaurants were closed except Citron and Long Bar. Most of the resort is under mantianece due to low occupancy. The beach was not useable due to strong winds and a big rainstorm during our stay.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    We started our trip back in April 2, 2019 from New York City. We quit our 9-6 jobs, sold all of our belongings, and began traveling full time. We left our jobs because we were unable to be with family and enjoy life. Work was taking up too much time and something had to change. We saved up for 2 years and began traveling as soon as we found a deal that would take us around the world for just $285.00. We started this #travelvlog to share our adventures with friends and family. At the one year mark, we realized that we had only scratched the surface and there was still so much to see. We are so fortunate to be doing this every day. We hope you enjoy our content and will subscribe to our adventures.

So I know the money is different there but for a room like y’all had what it run in US dollars per night? If u don’t mind me asking!!

    • @exploreaswego
      @exploreaswego  Год назад

      A night there would costs around $350 to $400 per night but it really depends on it being high season or low season. We went during low so it was a little cheaper. That's why you see the winds as well as the rain. We still recommend checking out this amazing property if it is on your to do list! TINA! We are going to be in Miami for the first week of October! Maybe you're close by :)

      It all worked out in the end. Had we been informed prior to arrival that everything was closing then we most likely would have chosen a different property, but as you can see the timing just wasn't right. The monsoon season, the covid issue... it all just wasn't in our favor, but the team did amazing and we were so excited to get to enjoy some culinary delights!
