After a week in hectic and cold Hanoi and a week in congested and hot Saigon, Grace Boutique Resort in Mui Ne was the perfect oasis.
We spent 7 lovely days at Grace over Christmas week, mostly sleeping, relaxing, and swimming in the pool.
A gorgeous, lush property in the Mediterranean style, Grace provided some of the usual hotel amenities, but with unique, accommodating touches.
Along with bottles of water, our comfortable and clean room was supplied with fresh flowers and daily fresh whole fruits.
A swim in the pool came with complimentary smoothie. And on the days that we didn't come out for a swim, the smoothies came to us in the room, unbidden--such a delicious surprise.
When we first arrived at the resort, Loan--the proprietress--told us about the breakfast time-frame, but she also said that if we came later, we'd still be served--great for us late sleepers. (Breakfast was served on the rooftop with the beautiful sea views.)
All the hotel guests were invited to join the family for a free Christmas dinner on the rooftop--turkey with the trimmings and sangria. What a warm way to spend Christmas eve away from home.
For us, what made staying at Grace Resort extra special was Loan and Van--the proprietors--who treated us more like family than anonymous hotel guests.
We highly recommend it to our friends and family who want to experience a beautiful and low-key paradise in Mui Ne.
