From Hue to Da Nang
Cultural’n Spa Retreat in Central Vietnam
Join me for a wonderful week of yoga, cultural excursions, massages, delicious food and so much more in Central Vietnam.
“Soak in history. Bathe in culture.
Restore the body. Revive the Soul.”
Welcome to the Narrow Coastal Region of Central Vietnam.
A land where beaches meet highlands, and ancient history blends seamlessly with modern charm. Our journey begins in the majestic city of Hue, the former Imperial Capital of the Nguyễn Dynasty. Rich in culture and steeped in history, Hue offers a glimpse into Vietnam’s regal past with its Forbidden City, ancient temples, and atmospheric streets lined with charming cafés and traditional cuisine.
From Hue, we travel south to the modern, dynamic city of Da Nang, famed for its sweeping beaches, lively markets, and the iconic Dragon Bridge that lights up the night sky.
Timeless Vietnam will not only be a retreat from our daily lives, but a cultural journey. It’s a chance to step away from the everyday and reconnect with the world through history, adventure, cuisine, and relaxation. This carefully curated experience brings together the essence of Central Vietnam—its scenic beauty, rich traditions, and warm hospitality.
Indulge the senses as we explore Hue’s bustling walking street and sample the region’s culinary delights. Nourish the mind as we wander through the awe-inspiring Imperial Citadel Hue. Invigorate the spirit as we ride along the legendary Hai Van Pass by motorbike or private car, taking in breathtaking coastal views on our way to vibrant Da Nang.
We’ll soak in the history of ancient sites, bathe in the local culture at the mysterious My Son Sanctuary, restore the body with yoga and rejuvenating spa sessions, and revive the soul with unforgettable flavors, from street food to fine cuisine.
This is more than a retreat—it’s a time to reconnect, to explore, and to remember. It will be a magical time as the mountains, beaches, and spirit of Central Vietnam inspire and renew you.
