Six Senses Con Dao
Ba Ria – Vung Tau, Vietnam
Nestled off the southern coast of Vietnam and comprising 16 islands, 80% of the islands in the stunning Con Dao archipelago is protected as a marine and national park. The largest of the islands is Con Son, also known by its colonial name of ILes Poulo Condore. Settled as early as the 16th century by Europeans, the island has a culturally rich and politically intense history. Today, Con Son has a tranquil atmosphere and much less developed than the other destinations whilst this island is known for its pristine beaches, coral reefs and crystal clear azure waters. Around 80% of Con Son is forested by the thick jungle canopy providing a habitat for all sorts of exotic-sounding animals.
Leave it to the Six Senses chain, known for bringing its contemporary eco-luxe designs to off-the-radar spots. Six Senses Con Dao enjoys a
breathtaking location surrounded by rainforest-clad mountains on the unspoiled island of Con Son. This sumptuous resort is an exclusive paradise that invites guests to stay in one of 50 gorgeous glass-fronted villas, designed to resemble a traditional fishing village, each with its own private infinity pools, sun decks and views of the South China Sea. The food at the Six Senses is equally enticing, with diners treated to a choice of traditional Vietnamese open kitchen at By The Market restaurant or mouth-wateringly fresh seafood and international favourites at By The Beach before chilling your night with drinks at Elephant Bar. If you want to learn the skills yourself, daily cooking classes are available. Stay horizontal on a lounger or grab a paddleboard, go snorkeling in Vietnam, or join a cultural tour — Six Senses Con Dao offers all the ultimate experience.
