Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai Retains Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star Rating for Eighth Consecutive Year

For the eighth consecutive year, Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai has been awarded the prestigious Forbes Five-Star rating, marking a continued journey of excellence since its first recognition by Forbes Travel Guide in 2019. The distinction reflects the Resort’s sustained commitment to thoughtful service, world-class amenities and extraordinary guest experiences.

“The credit for the Forbes Five-Star accolade belongs to our entire team,” says Marcel Oostenbrink, General Manager. “Delivering unforgettable moments year after year requires dedication, passion and a shared belief in what genuine hospitality should feel like. Recognitions like this inspire us to keep refining how we welcome and care for every guest who arrives at our Resort.”

Counted among the industry’s most esteemed voices, Forbes Travel Guide is an independent global rating system for luxury hotels, spas and restaurants. Star ratings are determined through anonymous inspections based on rigorous standards, with an emphasis on exceptional service.

Set along the pristine shores of Central Vietnam, Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai is an all-villa sanctuary framed by endless ocean horizons and tropical gardens. Besides easy access to three UNESCO World Heritage sites, including the ancient town of Hoi An, the Resort offers a collection of immersive experiences grounded in a strong sense of place – from restaurants that celebrate the region’s culinary abundance to wellness rituals inspired by the teachings of Vietnamese Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh.

The Forbes Five-Star rating reaffirms the Resort’s commitment to elevating guest experiences, with redesigned villas and refreshed dining concepts introduced as part of its recent evolution.

Newly Refurbished Villas

The renovated One-Bedroom Villas and Family Villas offer a renewed expression of luxury beachside living. Conceived as a modern take on the garden houses of Hue, the former imperial capital, these private sanctuaries unfold a dialogue between Vietnamese heritage and contemporary elegance – against a backdrop of spectacular coastal views.

Tailored for guests seeking space, stillness and a closer connection to their natural surroundings, the revamped villas feature bay windows to bring in natural light and daybeds for quiet moments. The signature sleeping pavilion is updated with curated design touches, such as pendant lights that nod to traditional nón lá hats, while the expanded bathroom boasts a free-standing bathtub complemented by an outdoor rain-shower.

A New Chapter at Lá Sen

After NAYUU, the first omakase restaurant in central Vietnam, and Sol & Sao Bar, a vibrant day-to-night destination by the waves, Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai unveils a new culinary concept at Lá Sen, now led by Executive Chef Heath Gordon.

Presenting a contemporary Vietnamese dining experience, Chef Heath reimagines timeless regional traditions through the lens of modern craftsmanship. Menus are shaped by seasonal availability and premium ingredients, many sourced through long-standing local relationships or harvested from the Resort’s own garden. Natural flavours lead the way, with thoughtful technique and composition elevating familiar dishes without obscuring their roots.
