InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort, Vietnam

Proving that sometimes more really is more, this hotel is a one-stop destination that ticks every box and then some. Built in the beautiful Son Tra Peninsula Nature Reserve and overlooking its own 700-metre-long private beach, the resort takes full advantage of its surroundings to offer activities such as guided forest hikes and lessons in sailing the area’s traditional basket boats. Planet Trekkers kids’ club offers extensive indoor and outdoor play areas, and daily classes in arts and crafts, yoga, kite-flying, dance, music and even jungle exploration on the resort’s sizeable grounds. For hard-to-please teenagers, there’s Project VN space, which offers Wii games, a pool table and an extensive library. Adult activities include barefoot dining under the stars and Vietnamese treatments at HARNN Heritage spa. The resort also has two pools, one that’s open to all, and one that’s only open to guests of 12 years or older.
