Lanterns dance across the Thu Bon River as Namia River Retreat emerges, a quiet jewel of Hoi An’s waterways. Palm fronds sway in the breeze, the scent of tropical blooms drifts through the air, and sunlight glints off private pools, hinting at the promise of calm.

On the secluded Cồn Ba Xã Islet, Namia River Retreat blends cultural exploration with thoughtful wellness. Lush landscapes frame private villas and pools, while the gentle river threads through the property, offering calm moments at every turn. The traditions of Hoi An meet the serenity of modern design, creating a space that feels both rooted and elevated.

Private pool villas offer a harmonious balance of tranquility and refined design. Choose from Nipa Pool Villas, each opening onto lush palm forest, or River Pool Villas with direct views of the Thu Bon River. Both types feature open-plan bedrooms, sunken bathtubs, en-suite bathrooms with vanity and shower, and lounges that extend to terraces and private pools. For families, Family Villas provide two bedrooms, indoor and outdoor living spaces, and a mix of forest and river views. The single Honeymoon Pool Villa elevates intimacy with a four-poster bed, private spa suite, sauna, and jacuzzi, alongside open-air lounges and a river-facing dining sala. Across all villas, bamboo bicycles and carefully curated amenities enhance every stay.

The Merchant serves as a lively all-day dining experience, where Vietnamese classics meet influences from East and West, and guests can explore The Market display to select locally sourced spices, aromatic coffee, or custom handicrafts. Exclusive to hotel guests, The Fisherman provides a relaxed, all-day dining atmosphere celebrating the region’s seafood heritage, with fresh catches from local markets, Japanese-inspired raw seafood selections, sushi boats, and yakitori grills. For a different perspective, hop on a private Dinner Cruise along the Thu Bon River, beginning with cocktails and followed by a set dinner.

Wellness here unfolds as a daily journey inspired by Vietnamese traditions. Begin with Dưỡng Sinh, a gentle morning movement class, join a guided fitness circuit, or train independently in the fully equipped studio. Collect a personalized herb parcel at the Herbal Apothecary before stepping into your private herbal hammam. Treatments include Diện Chẩn facial reflexology, single or couple sessions, and in-room rituals using fresh herbs from the gardens or local community. Facilities feature river-view welcome areas, two apothecaries, eight steam rooms, indoor and outdoor studios, relaxation lounges, and a terrace with sauna and cold plunge.

From sunrise movement to evening rituals by the river, Namia River Retreat invites guests to move through each day with quiet intention, leaving the rhythms of Hoi An lingering long after departure.
