Nam Hai

Nam Hi has 100 villas and 40 of them have their own pool. Nam Hai is setting the standard for luxury in Vietnam. Accommodations include upgrades seldom found in Vietnam such as a Bose Sound System, iPods and Sound Dock System, espresso machine, and a lacquered bathtub, plus an outdoor shower in the villa’s private garden. www.ghmhotels.com

InterContinental Westlake

Hanoi’s newest five-star hotel, the InterContinental Westlake, breaks the mold for a city hotel. The main building is located at the water’s edge but the other buildings are built on stilts in the water connected by walkways creating the feel of a resort. www.ichotelsgroup.com.
