Dreamy beaches and sand dunes

Vietnam beaches and bungalows on Mui Ne

Route: HCMC - Mui Ne - HCMC

Why not top off your Vietnam trip with a few days in a bungalow on some laid back Vietnam beaches? The deserted Vietnam beaches of Mui Ne are only four hours away from chaotic Ho Chi Minh City. It's a fantastic place to escape from the urban bustle with vast space and little noise. Mui Ne also has the lowest levels of rainfall in the whole of Vietnam. If you wish to extend your stay or upgrade your Vietnam beach bungalow, it's no problem at all. Just let our friendly Vietnam travel specialists know.

We also offer a Vietnam beach trip on Palm Island, a tiny exotic island with only 15 bungalows on a tropical beach. Alternatively, you can drift along the Mekong River on a Phu Quoc trip, another stunning island escape.

You can easily incorporate some Vietnam beaches into your holiday, simply choose from our range of bite-sized Vietnam tours. Need a little inspiration? Why not take your pick from our selection of ready-made holidays in Vietnam or give one of our friendly travel specialists a call on 01273 322 041.

Day 1: Ho Chi Minh - Mui Ne Beach

You'll leave Ho Chi Minh City by train for Phan Thiet. It's a short 4hr journey and the train is very comfortable. When you arrive into Phan Thiet, you'll need to organise a taxi to take you to your colonial-style Vietnam beach bungalows with bags of atmosphere. You can practically roll out of bed onto the sands. Settle in and find yourself a lounger under a thatched parasol.

You really can't top the winning combination of sun, sea and sand during your trip to these Vietnam beaches. Food lovers will be in heaven in Mui Ne - fresh fish, Vietnamese specialities and European-style dishes are on the menu in the restaurant with romantic sea views. What more could you possibly ask for?

Days 2-3: Free time

Only a few kilometres north, you could be forgiven for thinking you're in the Sahara. The vast white sand dunes, known to the Vietnamese as Bao Trang (white lake), are the heart of this mini-desert, and one of the best-kept secrets of Vietnam. It doesn’t take long to get to the sands on a rented scooter or pushbike. You can also slide down the dunes on a self-made sledge. Close to the dunes you will find the Vinh Hao Hot Springs, which are famed for their therapeutic qualities.

Phan Thiet lies right in the south of the Champa kingdom, and there are several temples built in the unique Cham architectural style just outside of Phan Thiet.

You'll end this Vietnam beaches trip by taking the train back to Ho Chi Minh City. It's possible to extend your stay at Mui Ne beach, or travel onwards to Nha Trang instead of HCMC; our Vietnam travel specialists will be more than happy to help you plan your trip.
