Sandy Beach Non Nuoc Resort

The environment is great, with a private beach that's quiet and not crowded, offering excellent value for money.

The hotel is flanked by Meliá on the left and Marriott on the right, offering an exclusive private beach and beachfront pool. It has all the amenities a resort should have, but the facilities are a bit dated. On my first day, I accidentally broke a wooden chair on the balcony – I guess it was due to years of wear and tear from the sun and rain, it just fell apart with a touch. The staff quickly replaced it with a new one and didn't charge me. The breakfast spread was extensive, but honestly, nothing tasted particularly good. For the price, though, what more could you ask for? Overall, I'm quite satisfied. There's a restaurant called La Restaurant at the hotel entrance, which is absolutely delicious and worth trying!

This was my first time in Da Nang, and I chose this resort as my top pick. While the overall decor is a bit dated, the quality is still there, especially in the executive suite. The room is huge, and whether you're in the outer or inner room, opening the window reveals the ocean right in front of you, creating a wonderful sense of relaxation for a vacation! The hotel's beach is expansive with fine sand, and breakfast is decent. It offers great value for money. If you enjoy swimming in the sea, lounging on the beach, and sunbathing, this is definitely the place to go!

The hotel is a bit far from Da Nang city center, but the beach is beautiful and uncrowded. The garden environment is lovely, and for dinner, there's a 299,000 VND buffet or an à la carte restaurant. Breakfast is extensive, and the open-air restaurant with birds singing makes for a delightful start to the day.

The room was awful, full of ants and geckos. Staff were slow to respond; nobody showed up for over half an hour. I didn't even stay the night but wasn't refunded. It was truly terrible, the worst room I've ever experienced. I showed them photos of the ants, and they said they had no other rooms, only an option to clean it. Soon after I returned, more geckos appeared. I just grabbed my luggage and went straight to the front desk. They then offered to change my room, which was ridiculous, so I just refused.

To my fellow Chinese travelers, please, for the love of God, avoid this hotel at all costs. I learned this the hard way, to the tune of 1000 RMB. First off, the room is unbelievably old and dilapidated. Don't believe me? Just look at the tissues, the bedding – I honestly thought I'd somehow landed in an 80s county guesthouse. Secondly, the voltage in the room is unstable. The lights constantly flicker, like something out of a horror movie. Every time the lights are off in your room, if someone upstairs or next door turns theirs on, yours will flicker. Someone with a weak constitution might pack up and leave in the middle of the night. (I didn't manage to film it, but it was genuinely like a scene from a ghost film). Thirdly, just look at picture three for the tissues they provide. Absolutely disgusting! I truly don't understand how a hotel can survive in such a squalid state. Fourthly, the location: it's a really long taxi ride to My Khe Beach, at least 30 minutes with traffic. And it's in the middle of nowhere, a complete wasteland! No food options, no place to buy water, and they only provide two tiny bottles of water in the room each day. And I mean TINY! Fifth, the price. I strongly suspect they're specifically trying to rip off Chinese tourists. A garden sea view room, including tax, was over 400 RMB a night. (I don't know how others claim to book it for 200 RMB; this was my price, so don't argue with me unless you want to prove me wrong!) For these facilities, don't be fooled by the public areas outside. The gardens are somewhat passable, but that's it. The room itself is a complete disaster. Again, Chinese people don't scam Chinese people. Finally, for accommodation recommendations, just look for places directly by My Khe Beach. I regret so much taking a taxi all the way there! Don't stay at these chaotic, inconvenient, so-called 'resort hotels.' The taxi fare just to go out for a meal will cost you a fortune! Oh, and the front desk staff had a terrible attitude! And when checking out of this run-down hotel, they acted like I was about to steal millions from them, checking everything for an incredibly long time. I wanted to tell them, 'Dude, I'm thinking of calling the police for your fraudulent photos, and you're here checking if I stole your crappy bedsheets?' It's a huge rip-off, and you really do just laugh out loud when you're so speechless.
