From spa treatments and relaxation experiences to wellness services including mindfulness, meditation and yoga, they have everything one needs in order to balance their energy and experience a renewed sense of self-awareness and serenity.

We interviewed Dwi Susanti, Spa Manager at Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai, Hoi An, who shared more information about the spa’s amenities, recommended treatments to try, insider tips, and much more:

Why You’ll Love It: The experience they have from entry to exit, the care and connection with the spa team. Being able to start feeling calm and serene when they arrive at the spa and are spoiled by the beauty of the lagoon.

The Spa at Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai, Hoi An offers ancient healing techniques, diverse wellness practices, and programs inspired by a renowned Vietnamese Zen master.

Key Features: Our Spa Villa is equipped with a Relaxation Lounge. It is complete with an indoor bathtub and steam room, a privy and a changing room. Each villa is equipped with a set of three crystal singing bowls and each treatment begins and ends with sound healing therapy.  

The spa is surrounded by a beautiful lotus pond.

Snacks Served: We have a wellness corner that serves detox-infused water and local delicacies: Banh Dua Nhuong (grilled coconut cracker) and Banh Chuoi (banana biscuit)—a connection to the Vietnamese culture, tradition and a sense of place.

Bonus: The Good Night Kiss to the Earth ritual every evening to welcome the transition of day to night. It’s a mesmerizing complimentary activity for all ages and a lovely way to end the day. Guests are encouraged to join this daily evening ritual, starting by writing a ‘love letter’ to the Earth and floating it on the lotus pond with a candle as the spa team fills the spa reception with the music of crystal singing bowls and hymns.

Individual bridges lead guests to their private treatment villas.

Insider’s Tip: All of our treatments feature crystal singing bowls tuned to 432 Hz—the harmonic intonation of nature—and the simplicity of mindfulness techniques to attune the body and mind to the Earth’s heartbeat.

Spa treatments also feature crystal singing bowls.

Splurge Treatment: Our signature treatment, a 150-minute Nam Hai Earth Song. A treatment that combines all the three virtues of our spa concept (please see the answer to the next question for details) from connecting to the Earth. Adapting the tradition from Hoi An, Vietnam’s richness of the source, and the healing modalities from sound healing featuring eight quartz crystal singing bowls.

Couples and pairs can enjoy the spa’s exclusive sound and breath experiences together.

Insider’s Favorite: Our treatments start from the first step of the guest at the spa. Arriving at the spa and looking at the spa lagoon and having a connection with the natural surroundings and beautiful landscape is considered a treatment for the soul.  

All of the treatments are inspired and thoughtfully designed based on the philosophy of Thich Nhat Hanh (Vietnam’s most renowned Zen master and peace activist) and grouped in three well-being virtues learned from the Earth:

Stability—Grounding treatments that nourish the physical body

Creativity—Energizing treatments that free blockages and encourage new possibilities

Non-Judgmental—Harmonizing treatments that promote inner peace and compassion

Guests can enjoy luxurious services in the private Lotus Pond Treatment Suite.

Featured Products: Ila, Beyond Organic and Aromatherapy Associates; CND, SpaRitual (for nails)

The property also offers a portal to three UNESCO World Heritage sites and a breezy respite on the country’s most celebrated beach.
