Amanoi, Vietnam

Aman’s resorts and hotels house some of the most exquisite swimming pools, but that shouldn’t come as a surprise. The luxury hotelier’s Vietnam outpost, Amanoi, is no exception, a five-star resort nestled in a secluded coastal setting between Núi Chúa National Park and an untouched, coral-rich bay. Exploring nature—which includes a private beach and lush jungle—is an obvious must-to-do, but on lazy days, lying by the pool makes a calming respite. Many of the accommodations at Amanoi actually include a private pool, so it’s a matter of deciding which type of view you’re looking for. Popular options include mountain, ocean, lake, or forest views—the choice is yours.
