Where to stay

See how the main places to stay differ in location, atmosphere and getting around.

  • My Khe

    Beach-strip stays with easier morning sea access than the riverside city core.

  • Han riverside

    City and riverside amenities, with beach days usually needing a transfer.

  • Son Tra peninsula

    Quieter upscale peninsula resorts with bay views and limited walkable dining outside properties.

What it's like

Hoi An transfer

Hoi An is a separate heritage town roughly half an hour from Da Nang — area choice on the Da Nang coast should assume that transfer when you want Old Town evenings.
