The Anam Cam Ranh Recognised Among Vietnam’s Best Beach Resorts
The Anam Cam Ranh has been named as one of Vietnam’s top beach resorts by prestigious magazine Travel + Leisure Southeast Asia, Hong Kong and Macau.
Readers of the magazine voted the 12-hectare beachfront resort among the winners of Vietnam’s “Best Beach and Island Resorts” category of this year’s Travel + Leisure Luxury Awards Asia Pacific.
Readers of the publication voted the resort, renowned for its spectacular location overlooking Long Beach on Vietnam’s Cam Ranh peninsula and its Indochine era-inspired design, in the seventh spot in the list of ten winners.
When Vietnamese businessman Pham Van Hien set foot on Cam Ranh about 12 years ago, he was struck by its unspoiled sands and waters, its dramatic headlands and offshore islands. A dream took root that came to fruition in The Anam Cam Ranh: “I have visited many countries during three decades working in the tourism and the airline business and it is rare to find so many remarkable qualities in one under-the-radar location,” said Hien. “There isn’t a more desirable place to be on the water in Vietnam.”
Travel + Leisure Southeast Asia, Hong Kong & Macau, said of the awards: “Taking in the hospitality industry in 15 countries and territories as well as the travel industry more broadly across Asia-Pacific, the Travel+Leisure Luxury Awards winners for 2024 reflect the ballots of you hotel guests, frequent fliers, cruise-lovers, points guys, and wellness junkies, and highlight the places and people that make for the best high-end wanderlust. With so many tried, trusted and true hotels getting your votes, and well as the slew of new openings in the region and ideas in luxury hospitality percolating out there, we’ve put together a special print edition: The Hotels Issue 2024.”
About The Anam Group
After the auspicious debut of The Anam Cam Ranh in 2017, the independently owned and operated The Anam Group celebrated the grand opening of its second property, The Anam Mui Ne, in January 2023, and multipurpose convention centre Axi Plaza in Cam Ranh in April, 2024.
With “Indochine Charm” and “Modern Luxury” as its watchwords, the group blends colonial-era aesthetics and attentive Vietnamese service with modern comforts and convenience. “The Anam” today is a reference to another name, “An Nam”, which was the name of Central Vietnam during the French Indochina era.
The Anam Cam Ranh overlooks 300 metres of beachfront on Vietnam’s scenic Cam Ranh peninsula, which averages more than 300 sunny days per year. The luxurious five-star resort boasts 77 villas and 136 rooms and suites. The Anam Cam Ranh features a French-inspired fine dining restaurant, all-day dining restaurant, a Vietnamese restaurant and bar, a classical bar, a beach club, in-room dining, a 10 treatment-room spa, indoor and outdoor movie theatres, three capacious swimming pools, ballroom, conference rooms, recreation and fitness centre, a tennis court, yoga room and deck, kids club, putting green, onsite sustainable farm, gift shop and more.
Like its predecessor The Anam Cam Ranh, The Anam Mui Ne’s design is also an echo out of Vietnam’s Indochine era.
