- Six Senses Con Dao, Vietnam
Six Senses Con Dao, Vietnam
This rustic, yet luxurious tropical retreat is on the smallest island in the Con Dao archipelago and has been protected for decades as a national and marine park. Con Dao is a little ‘off the radar’ but just a short flight from, and the perfect antidote to, the frenetic pace of Saigon. National Geographic laud this idyll as one of the top eco lodges in the world – true sustainable luxury!
Six Senses Con Dao
The 50 private pool villas are built in the typical Six Senses style using a plethora of local, sustainable and natural materials. Ocean Duplex Villas are split level with one bedroom, which is set on the upper floor. Stunning ocean views prevail and the infinity edge pool is definitely somewhere you will spend lots of time. The clever design of these duplex villas reduces the need for air conditioning on the ground floor, which is where the spacious bathroom is located. If chilled air, on demand, in all areas is de-riguer, we recommend the Ocean Front Deluxe Villas as an alternative. These single storey villas have an open-plan style which boasts magnificent vistas from the private pool and terrace. When it comes to décor you should think lots of natural wood, neutral colours and state-of-the-art technology, pleasingly and discreetly embedded in the design.
The Vietnamese kitchen, or to give it its proper name Vietnamese at the Market, is the heart and soul of the resort and led by Ms Len. A smorgasbord of Vietnamese delicacies of noodles, soups, rice, rolls and wraps are made freshly to order. Other dining options include Deli’cious and By the Beach, where Asian fusion meets French – truly mouth-watering. The resort also offers a menu of destination dining experiences including beach barbeques, cooking classes and wine cellar dining.
The beach is straight out of a film set; wide, soft and gleaming white sand set into the gentle curve of the bay, washed by the warm waves of the East Vietnam Sea and home to a wide range of watersports including some of the best snorkelling and diving to be found anywhere in Vietnam. Hiking and cycling round the island is popular and Con Dao has some interesting merchant history and local culture to discover. The superb Six Senses Spa excels in the wide and varied choice of Yogic wellness programs and treatments you would expect from Six Senses.
Con Dao Turtle Release
The waters in front of Six Senses Con Dao are a prime habitat and feeding ground for endangered green sea turtles, which nest on the 2km of private beach fronting the resort. It is the only location where protection from poaching and depleting habitats, in collaboration with the Con Dao National Park authority, is enforced for the small marine population that resides around the islands. The mother turtles' nesting season in Con Dao runs from April until late October, when the attentive hosts will escort in-house guests to the nesting site, enabling them to witness her meticulous process of laying and carefully burying her eggs from a respectful and secure distance. From May through to December, the eggs laid by mother green turtles start to hatch and baby turtles begin emerging from the sand, ready to make a dash towards the awaiting waves. In-house guests are encouraged to participate in the ethical baby turtle releases directly on the resort’s beach – a truly remarkable and memorable experience.
