It is accessible by a 45-minute drive from Qui Nhon airport and is so solitary that there are presently only seven private pool villas, nestled within a 90 ha plot of land near a quiet bay surrounded by beautiful white sandy beaches and sparkling turquoise waters. Boasting a stunning vista of dramatic rock formations and gently rolling hills, the resort is indeed a dream come true for travellers looking for that perfect getaway.

There are more villas being built but to maintain Bai Tram Hideout’s exclusive, utopian ideal, the number of pool villas will eventually total just 14. Keeping in sync with Vietnamese culture and the authenticity of the experience, the resort’s architecture features a traditional Vietnamese style complete with thatched roofs, antique wooden doors and solid bamboo details. The breathtakingly large open areas and charming outdoor living spaces provide a natural extension of the tropical surroundings.

Complementing its lovely exteriors, the villas’ interiors radiate comfort and a sense of casual luxury with oversized bathrooms offering both indoor and outdoor showers while gardens come with hammocks so guests can enjoy the balmy weather any time of day. The seven intimate villas are available in four different categories with sizes ranging from 65 to 320 sq m, all of which are fully equipped with wireless internet access, iPod stations, large LCD screens and superb sound systems.

Butlers are on-hand to cater to guests’ every whim and fancy while there are heavenly spa treatments such as massages and body scrubs for them to indulge in. Guests can also partake in wellness activities such as yoga, Pilates and tai chi offered within the resort – while being caressed by the cool sea breeze as they take in incredible views of the beach.

Dining is a unique experience at Bai Tram Hideout as meals can be served at many different locations on the property such as at the main restaurant, on the beach, in the rice fields, in the villas, as well as at other private locations. Guests are spoiled for choice given the spread of authentic Vietnamese dishes and Western cuisine. Highlights include freshly-caught lobster at the beachfront restaurant, rice grown at the resort’s own paddy field, cuisine prepared with organic produce and Vietnamese beach barbecues. Guests can also join the Gourmet Club and learn to cook their favourite authentic Vietnamese dishes and take the recipes back home with them.

For an exclusive getaway like no other, Bai Tram Hideout is certainly the place to be.
