Son Tra Resort & Spa Danang Bewertungen

Disappointed when we arrived that our Beachfront villa pool was not private - in fact the villa we stayed in was located next to the restaurant and everyone could look directly into our pool, not to mention neighbouring villas and people on the walkway along the beach. Make no mistake this is not a ‘high class’ resort as the hotel website describes, it is dated and it is run on a budget. Some parts of our villa had the faintest smell of mould, the bath could not be used as the hot water would run out when filling it, some fixtures were broken eg the shower hand rail and some of the external doors hardware and even the toilet roll holder felt like we were using a public WC. Aside from kettle, microwave and fridge, the kitchen had nothing in it except for a teapot, 4 glasses, 4 cups and some teaspoons - not even a dish towel. Housekeeping was a let down in the kitchen, every day they would clean the glasses and cups and then leave them on the side of the sink to dry, the upstairs living area toilet and basin had nothing (hand towel/dryer) to dry your hands, I asked for an extra towel for this room going forward and they relocated one of the towels from the main bathroom, but did this on one day only. There is no drink and food beach service, you have to go to the restaurant to order and they ask you to wait while it’s prepared. The location is remote from Danang (return grab car approx AUD $20 to 25) and is scenic with the hotel having its own private picturesque beach with staff periodically removing any rubbish in the water. Buffet breakfast was average in quality but had good variety especially given how small the resort is. Staff were generally friendly but only reception were extremely responsive to requests. The massage at the spa was a letdown as it was in a closed room in one of the back villas and again there was nothing luxurious about it. On Friday evening we were informed of a wedding to be held the next night on the beach. This was very loud, but thankfully this only went on for approx 5 hours. Obviously it would have been nice to have been told this earlier during booking or at the beginning of our stay so that we could have left a day earlier. This could be a great resort but my experience of it fell well short of expectations, however we still enjoyed it. I do not recommend it if you are seeking privacy in your pool villa.
