Hue


Located 30km north of Hue, this luxe resort is built around natural hot springs at the foot of the Truong Son mountain range. Spend lazy days soaking in the geothermal rock pools, cycling the spacious grounds or enjoying the seven-step indoor/outdoor Japanese-style onsen. Much of the organic produce served in the restaurant is grown on-site.
