The green season is a highly evocative time of year to visit Vietnam’s central coast. As temperatures have cooled and tropical rains replenish the soil, the entire landscape blooms in a vibrant display of colour and life. Flowers blossom, waterfalls flow and exotic fragrances float through the pure air. Now, InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort, which is nestled in 39 hectares of lush jungle on the Son Tra Peninsula, is inviting guests to enjoy a series of new and original experiences that connect them with the wonders of nature.
Wellness: Find the New You with Sound Therapy and Uplifting Activities
Green season is the perfect time to revive the body, mind and soul. At the Mi Sol Spa, InterContinental Danang’s innovative wellness centre, guests can enjoy deeply soothing sound therapy experiences that tune into the body’s natural vibrations and frequencies to stimulate the flow of energy. The resort’s fitness dream team – wellness manager Alyona, personal trainer Bao, and tai chi expert Ms. Thu – will also lead exhilarating outdoor sessions including Morning Yoga on the beach, Afternoon Pilates, Kickboxing, Tai Chi, Meditation and more.
Once a month, as the full moon casts its soft glow over the East Sea, Full Moon Yoga sessions offer auspicious opportunities to embrace the energy of the lunar cycle and feel at one with the world. Every class includes Sound Bath and Savasana elements for complete relaxation.
Gastronomy: Savour Fresh Vietnamese Cuisine, Coffee and Fine French Wine
The green season is also a fantastic time for foodies, as the farms and forests of Central Vietnam flourish with fresh produce. Guests can learn the art of local cuisine with a Vietnamese Cooking Class, as the resort’s talented chefs lead multi-sensory tours of the organic garden and guide students through the techniques needed to craft classic dishes. Alternatively, coffee lovers can embark on a Viet Coffee Tasting class at Citron, which lets them discover the unique flavour of traditional local brews from the three coffee regions of Vietnam: North, Central, and South.
At La Maison 1888, the Michelin-starred French restaurant which has received Wine Spectator’s “Award of Excellence” for seven consecutive years, discerning travellers can embark on the Tour de France – a one-of-a-kind tasting journey across a map of France, including the chance to learn about the country’s wine-making regions and taste four premium labels. With one of Vietnam’s most impressive wine cellars and a collection of rare vintages, this is an unmissable opportunity for lovers of fine wine.
Nature: Discover the Local Wildlife, Including Rare Red-Shanked Douc Langurs
The Son Tra Peninsula is a haven of biodiversity, home to many rare species including critically endangered red-shanked douc langur monkeys. Curious explorers can head into this beautiful forest for a Wildlife Expedition – an hour-long tour with nature expert Mr. Quan. He introduces guests to this extraordinary ecosystem and its unique flora and fauna. New for this green season, a series of indoor presentations, short movies and games will let all ages learn about the efforts to preserve the Son Tra Peninsula for future generations – perfect for rainy days.
Entertainment: Movie time at Southeast Asia’s only full-size resort cinema
At The Summit Auditorium, the only full-size cinema at a resort in Southeast Asia, loved ones can come together and watch the latest blockbuster movies and timeless classics in a refined ambience. This stylish space is perched at the highest level of the resort and features 100 vibrant yellow seats, making it perfect for cosy afternoons and evenings, or as a venue for exclusive events.
