Loved the vibe of the resort, very relaxing and truly a retreat experience. The staff was attentive and welcoming. My butler Ngan was very helpful and accommodating, giving advices on the resort and our transportation arrangement etc. The room is extremely spacious and comfortable with relatively new facilities.

+ The transporting boat (from lounge to resort) can be renovated or even upgraded to a bigger one as it was shaky some time. This should really be considered as part of resort’s facilities and your overall “experience”. I’d seriously consider this especially if traveling with elderly/children. + Food menu is acceptable in terms of pricing but can add a bit more of variety.

Absolutely wonderful.  Great spacious and airy rooms, a wonderful patio to observe the waves and the sea, and a nice pool to dip into. The team, restaurants, and walks near the beach, waterfalls, and forest were all lovely. A special shout out and thanks to the overall team, particularly Bao, Bao's brother, and Mrs Moon, who went above and beyond to accommodate us and provide us with great humble service and cultural insights. Professional, kind, and warm spirited. Thanks as well to the chef, muscians, and entire restaurant and management team who helped to prepare a special Christmas and birthday. A magical place that blends natural elements with luxury, local taste, and influence. Thanks so much for such a wonderful stay.

We (2 people) booked an ocean view villa and stayed for 5 days in November 2024. Our stay was excellent although it was off season. The resort is located in a very picturesque, calm place among the jungles. It is the main feature of it to be far from the civilization, enjoy the nature and reconnect with the body and mind. ACCOMMODATION The villa was very spacious and clean. Twice a day our water bottles were refilled and the rooms were cleaned. At around 3-4pm our battler brought us some fruits and cakes (small detail but it was very pleasant). The swimming pool was also very well maintained. We didn’t have any mosquitoes. FOOD Food was really great! As we stayed for 5 days we tried different dishes for the dinner. Yes, prices are higher than in Nha Trang, but not so expensive as I read in other reviews. All dishes we tried were delicious, portions were also big. On average for a dinner of two appetizers, two main dishes, 2 beers and 1 bottle of water, we paid around 50-60 Euros. Breakfast was also very good! Different options of Vietnamese food and western cuisine as well. RESORT STUFF All people we met there were extremely polite, welcoming and respectful. We had a very warm greeting by a lady Thuy at the airport. The rest 5 days we were assisted by Thom and Huong - amazing ladies were always in touch with us! BEACH I love swimming and snorkeling. In some reviews people complained about the short and rocky beach line. Yes, there are some big stones in the sea which don’t bother at all and yes, the coast line is short. But it is more than enough to go for a swim and enjoy the sea. The water in November wasn’t clear because of the rains therefore I didn’t try snorkeling, can’t say anything about this activity there. YOGA AND MEDITATION The resort has a perfect Yoga Saal, under the roof with an amazing sea view. I did yoga there every day.

I would suggest only to renew or do a deep cleaning of the white mattresses on the Terrasse (white couch). We noticed a few brown sports there (probably from coffee or tea).

Everything was exceptional. The people so gentle and kind. The place is beautiful and super spacious, super comfortable. We were a bit unlucky with the weather as it rained the 2 days we spent there (they called it storm but it was just rain) but it was still amazing to be there in the jungle by the sea, with great warm temperature. Perfect place to listen to the rain and really rest and relax. Our room had a swimming pool and view to the bay through the jungle, which was stunning.

There weren’t much activities to do when it rained, but still it was amazing to relax at the room.

This is a high quality (and high price) resort where you are completely isolated and safe. Staff are all friendly and the food is excellent and so are all services in general. Our room was very spacious and we had a beautiful view. We had a personal butler and she was fantastic.

This is not a place for the elderly or for ones with a health condition. Our room was a stiff climb up 60 steps and this was an improvement on the first choice at 90 steps. Also, the only way to get to the place is by boat, even if it is not on an island and the climb in an out of the boat is not easy, at all. Frankly, they should state that much more clearly on the website. OK, our room was called "treetops" but we did not realise we had to take this very literally. Another thing to bear in mind is that the ONLY thing to do is to do... almost nothing except relax and maybe swim.

The surroundings and architecture of Am Lam Retreat are beautiful. We were kindly given a free upgrade to a room on the beach front - the rooms are very spacious and clean and the atmosphere of the retreat is incredibly relaxing. The hotel offers multiple days out for various activities (at a high price though) and offer the free day trip to Nha Trang which is great if you want to see some of the attractions in the city. Not only does the hotel have the 5 star facilities, but the jungle style and wonderful staff make it such a more enjoyable experience - a shout out to Kim our butler who was very attentive, polite anecdote smiley :) We would absolutely recommend this hotel - it is the best we have ever been to!

The retreat allows you to venture away from the hotel a little and we noticed quite a bit of rubbish and plastic on these more remote sections of the retreat. The staff take good care of the immediate area and to make this hotel better they should spend time cleaning the entire resort.

The staff were all so welcoming, friendly and helpful. We had an amazing Bulter called Bao who we cannot say enough good things about, he really made our stay. The beds were so comfortable and the rooms were overall clean. The facilities were great and we really enjoyed our ocean view villa with pool. The views and scenery are fantastic. The spa was very good and relaxing. Bonus the have cute pet dogs.

It didn’t bother us as given the location this is to be expected but there are ants everywhere (even in the bed). Thankfully house keeping comes twice a day and bug spray is provided. The lunch/dinner menu could include more diversity.

Stunning Bay View room, spacious & beautiful setting. Excellent food & great service especially from our butler Thom

Problems with checking in another guest meant we were kept waiting at the transfer jetty where we were cold & the delay wasn’t explained. Problems with the other guests credit card could have been resolved once we arrived at the hotel saving them embarrassment & us all time

This was the best hotel we have had the pleasure staying in!! Everything exceeded our expectations! The view is spectacular, the room was special with a secluded private pool, the food is sublime and most of all the team looking after us were so kind and attentive. Highlights for us were the yoga with Hue in the spectacular yoga sala and deck on the beach, the snorkelling excusion team, the spa team, the restaurant staff. We will be back!!

Leaving!

Incredible and tranquil location in a beautiful bay. The Ocean View Pool Villa was superb with full privacy and perfect facilities. Everything was taken care of by the highly attentive personnel - special shoutout to Tân who was always one step ahead on ensuring a smooth experience. If you have the chance, the yoga class with Ms Hue is highly recommended!

The restaurant was good, but not as excellent as the rest of the retreat.
