Khanh Hoa resorts win top honours at Travel+Leisure Luxury Awards 2026
VOV.VN - Several luxury resorts in Vietnam’s central Khanh Hoa province have been honoured at the Travel+Leisure Luxury Awards Asia Pacific 2026, further reinforcing the province's reputation as one of Vietnam's premier destinations for high-end leisure travel.
According to Travel+Leisure, Vietnam’s hospitality and resort sector continues to gain international recognition thanks to its high-quality accommodation, nature-inspired designs and ability to cater to a wide range of traveler preferences. From beachfront resorts to luxury hotels, the country is increasingly establishing itself as a leading destination for premium travel experiences in Asia.
In the Top 10 Best Beach and Island Resorts in Vietnam 2026 category, Khanh Hoa was represented by three properties, with JW Marriott Cam Ranh Bay Resort & Spa ranking third, Six Senses Ninh Van Bay placing seventh, and Villa Le Corail, A Gran Melia Hotel securing tenth place.
Among them, Six Senses Ninh Van Bay has made a strong impression by earning accolades in several key categories, thanks to its authentic guest experiences and premium service quality. “Impressive rock formations, a white sand beach, and a backdrop of towering mountains add to the fantasy,” Travel+Leisure wrote.
The resort topped the list of the top 10 resorts with pools in Vietnam, featuring private pools designed to blend seamlessly with the natural terrain. It also ranked third among Vietnam's top 10 spa resorts, recognised for its approach to holistic wellness such as improved sleep quality and healthy dining throughout the guest's stay.
Meanwhile, JW Marriott Cam Ranh Bay Resort & Spa continued to attract attention for its combination of natural beauty, cultural elements and artistic design. Guests can enjoy wellness experiences at Spa by JW as well as cultural activities, including traditional Cham pottery-making workshops guided by local artisans.
Elsewhere, nestled on Vietnam's stunning coastline, Villa Le Corail, A Gran Meliá Hotel “stands as a new benchmark for luxury. Seamlessly blending the Spanish spirit of 'good living' with the finest Vietnamese hospitality, our villas promise the most exceptional experiences: from excursions to cultural destinations to the most extraordinary service,” Travel+Leisure shared.
Beyond luxury services, many hospitality establishments in Khanh Hoa are increasingly investing in sustainable tourism initiatives. At Six Senses Ninh Van Bay, visitors can participate in environmental conservation activities such as coral restoration, recycling programmes, forest ecosystem education and efforts to protect the endangered black-shanked douc langur.
Travel+Leisure noted, Vietnam’s evolving hospitality scene continues to go from strength to strength, building a reputation for luxury that’s drawing increasing attention away from its neighbors. Deservedly so, as high-end hotels across the country are some of the region’s most imaginative and aesthetic, blended most seamlessly into nature, and uniquely designed with multi-generational travelers in mind.
