There was a problem with air conditioning in the room we booked so we got another one, which was much bigger and had a terrace. It’s a resort located in a calm rural area outside of Hoi An center and has enough facilities if you just want to hang out (pool, bar, spa, activities). If you want to go to the center or beach, they provide a complimentary shuttle bus and bikes. Extremely kind and attentive staff, especially ladies in the reception and the manager. They really tried to anticipate our every need, shared advice and added a personal touch to the interactions. Really good breakfast and a very nice massage in the spa.

Such a great place!!! Our room was the boat on the little lake and it was so wonderful! It was too good, in fact, that we didn't want to leave to go explore Hoi An. The grounds of the property were charming, the pool was relaxing and never over crowded, the wifi was fast and extended throughout the entire place, and the breakfast was phenomenal! The food and drinks prices were also very reasonable, and above all the staff was incredibly helpful and welcoming. I wish I could have stayed there forever.

We absolutely loved everything about our stay! This place is a true slice of paradise, offering the perfect blend of countryside tranquility and easy access to the city, thanks to the hotel’s free transfer service. The stunning surroundings, the peaceful atmosphere, the beautiful swimming pool, and the relaxing spa with its incredible massages make it an oasis of relaxation where every detail is designed for comfort and serenity. But what truly sets this place apart is the exceptional service. The staff are beyond incredible—genuinely kind, caring, and always ready to help with a warm smile. Each and every one of them is a gem, and their dedication makes the experience unforgettable. They don’t just provide service; they create a welcoming, heartwarming atmosphere that makes you feel at home. The peace and serenity of this place make it an absolute dream, and we can’t wait to come back!

If you’re a light sleeper, you might want to bring earplugs, as the windows are not double-glazed. But honestly, this is just a tiny detail in an otherwise perfect stay.

Loved how it was out of the chaos. Super easy to get a taxi into town. Loved the pool and the calm surroundings.

If you are a childless adult I will warn that the pool area is small so if kids are around it’s usually loud. I think the breakfast could have been better. Every time we went to eat the hot food was cold (they would turn the food warmers off) and cold food was warm (been sat out too long). Didn’t feel super safe to eat a lot of the food as it felt like it had been sat out too long. Also the bottom sheets didn’t fit the bed so came off every night. Staff could have been a little more attentive and upbeat. But sitting behind the bar on their phones isn’t the best look.

The cabin on the boat was fantastic, a really fun experience. The air con worked very well so never felt too hot. The bathroom is very cool and semi-outdoors. The whole resort is amazing, feels jungley and all the staff were incredibly friendly. I wholeheartedly recommend you do the cooking class they do, we had a fantastic time! They take you to the market by bicycles to get some ingredients, and then back to the resort to fish in the lake followed by the cooking class with the head chef. The free shuttle bus into town and to the beach is great. Breakfast was fantastic, and we'll definitely be back one day!

N/A

Location in the rural, farming conmunity and fish farms amidst the riotous greenery and flower gardens of their rustic villas, about 5-7 km from both beach and Hoi An old town with the best frequent free minibus service to both.Well maintained bikes are also free to use to explore the local alleys and venture to beach and town if you brave the traffic. Everywhere in Vietnam, the staff are helpful and willing, but this was especially so at the Zest. Breakfast was also exceptional with an abundance of fresh fruit, salads, cooked rice, noodles, and western sausages, bacon, eggs 4 ways with breads and pastries and an abundance of coffee, tea, juices and water.

Whilst the rustic hand crafted furniture and quirky pond villas are remarkable and the mattresses comfortable, the solid, hand-adzed hardwood chairs and benches don't offer much upholstered or padded comfort when you need to just sit and chill. Photos of the pool are accurate but are perhaps suggestive of a much larger expansive area than the perfectly adequate moderate sized pool adjacent to the.thatched bar and pool table.outdoors area.

We LOVED our stay here! The staff was very lovely (especially Dung). They made sure we had the best experience. The pool is very lovely; there were enough chairs for everyone. The rooms were big, with nice terraces, an amazing shower, and a bathtub! We got a complimentary foot massage, which was also amazing! The breakfast is the best we had on our whole trip. I celebrated my 30th birthday here, and they decorated the room with balloons, a complimentary cake, etc. Free shuttle to Hoi An & the beach and back. Very good recommendations from the hotel itself.

This is an amazing hotel ...an oasis of calm compared to the bustle of Hoi An city. The staff were incredible - kind, caring and very attentive. We travelled with our three children and they were very accommodating to our children's needs. It is a safe place and one that you can truly unwind. The breakfast was fantastic. Delicious noodles, interesting Vietnamese snacks alongside the classic Western dishes. We did the cooking course and I'd highly recommend it. Having done cooking courses in Asia before and as someone who lives in Thailand, I can honestly say this was the best course I have done. It was authentic and you got to cook most delicious from scratch. The cycle to the market was lovely too. The course was suitable for our 9 year old as well as so many of the staff were on hand to help. Overall, this is one of the best hotels we've stayed in and we'll be back.

We absolutely loved our stay at the scenic Zest Resort & Spa Hoi An. Upon arriving the staff let us know, that the air conditioning in our booked room doesn't work and needs to be fixed. An alternative had already been prepared for us and we spent our first night in the beautiful and spacious garden villa that's situated right at the small lake. Already the next morning we were able to change to our booked room with balcony which was also very beautiful and super comfortable with a really, really nice bathroom. But the best thing about our stay was the people working there that gave us the warmest welcome, big smiles and the best service. Lovely Thuy and Thuong were constantly making sure that we had everything we needed, brought sunshine to our mornings and made us feel like home. Also the kitchen team was wonderful - always happy, super friendly and hard working. Breakfast was very good and plentiful. The friendly cleaning staff kept rooms and the hotel spotless. Thank you for a wonderful and relaxing stay in Hoi An.

This hotel is absolutely beautiful. Such a stunning setting, only a 10min taxi (£2.80~) drive to the Old Quarter. The room and especially the bed was huge. The bathroom was large with a free standing stone bath. The staff go above and beyond, and the breakfast was nice. The pool is large, and has an outside bar next to it. We booked a cooking class that the hotel run, and it was a fantastic experience. Would thoroughly recommend this hotel, for us, it was the most beautiful hotel we stayed in during our two week trip around Vietnam.
