Royal Beachfront Villas & Spa Hoi An Danang

FULL and honest comprehensive review. THIS IS NOT A 5 STAR RESORT* Hotel/grounds: everything looks slightly run down or half rate, an example of this is the little hill going down from the pool to the main grass/beach area, by afternoon it turns into mud. Anytime a resort doesnt have installed speakers, is also a tell that its not taking ambiance seriously. Also not sure why beach front resorts haven't fully adopted wristbands for keys instead of having actual key cards, big miss here. There is decent wifi throughout the property. Room: We booked a two bedroom pool villa. While the actual master bedroom was nicely appointed. The layout is EXTREMELY odd. The two bedrooms are completely separated and the living space is yet another separated area with no locks. You need to remember your physical key card if you want to go from bedroom to bedroom. It's a really poor layout especially if you bring kids. Also it's very odd the beds are on wheels and move every time you sit on them. The pool itself was nice, nothing great. Just wasnt as inviting as the pool villa we had a Mikazuki in Da Nang. Pool: we spent most of our time at the beach front pool. Again it was fine. No servers. Again detracting from a real 5 star property, you needed to trade- in cards to get towels and vice versa, just seems like a petty policy. The beach is probably the highlight here. Nice sand, clean, good clean water with no seaweed. No beach chairs really set out on the beach and no service on the beach.

Beautiful beachfront Villa with private pool! We really enjoyed the 5 nights we spent on the beachfront at this Hotel! We splashed out on a beachfront villa, which had wonderful views over the gardens and onto the beach and sea. The staff were beyond helpful, especially Brian, our villa manager, who was happy to help out with every query we had: including recommendations for eating and shopping in nearby Hoi An and just answering all our little questions over the entire stay. The breakfast and free canapés (including cocktails!) kept us fighting fit for long days of relaxing and equally long nights walking the streets of Hoi An. This is a great choice for families that want to visit historic Hoi An but stay by the beach. Highly recommend!

We stayed in a three-bedroom villa at this resort for three nights with our family of five. The villa was spacious, spotless, and luxurious, making our stay extremely comfortable. Both the private beach and the swimming pool were beautiful and well maintained. The breakfast offered a wide variety of choices, and we also enjoyed the complimentary happy hour each afternoon and evening, with unlimited drinks and snacks. Everyone in our family was very satisfied. All of the staff, both men and women, were warm, friendly, and welcoming throughout the resort, which made our stay even more enjoyable. We are especially grateful to Eric, who looked after us from check-in to check-out. His attentive and thoughtful service truly made a difference. This is a resort we would definitely love to visit again.

Fantastic breakfast menu, very beautiful property

Great breakfast buffet selection. Tasted great. Nice villa with pool. One of our room had A/C turned off when we checked in, but was able to cool down quickly. Spa service (steam sauna) was great experience, friendly staffs. A lot of lizards, that’s fine. But cockroaches appeared in the second floor of three bedroom villas with pool. Staffs were a little difficult to communicate in English (staffs at Royal Shore Restaurant during breakfast were okay to communicate in English though). At check-in, buggy car drivers left our luggages at the lobby, 30 second buggy car ride turned into 3 minute ride, because driver couldn’t locate our villa… Tried to exchange currency (USD to VND), but they declined multiple $100 bills I brought from US because they were worn and torn out.. they were fairly new ones (didn’t have any problem when exchanged in another hotel in Da Nang). Additionally, they didn’t have enough VND on hand for us to exchange, just $100 worth of VND they had. Exchange rate was good though. Looks it was either new or renovated resort, so may come visit again next time. Good experience for the value.
