If you wish to extend your stay or upgrade your Vietnam beach bungalow, it's no problem at all. Just let us know.

We also offer Vietnam beach bungalows on Palm Island, a tiny exotic island with only 15 bungalows on a tropical beach.

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 right on the beach. 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. 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 seaviews. 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 trip by taking the train back to Ho Chi Minh City. It's possible to extend your stay at Mui Ne beach, and it is also possible to travel onwards to Nha Trang instead of HCMC, just ask our Vietnam specialists for details.
