Where the Journey Slows Down

After the cities and the temples, the sea.

Most journeys through Indochina begin in the cities, move through the countryside and the historic towns, and finish by the water. A beach stay is not just somewhere to rest at the end. It is often the part travellers remember most.

This collection brings together the beach and island resorts across Vietnam and Cambodia that we believe are worth knowing. Some sit on long stretches of sand with plenty of space and everything on site. Others are small retreats hidden in quiet bays, or private islands with only a handful of rooms. All of them are places where the sea sets the rhythm of the day.

Our Approach

The right beach resort depends on where it comes in the journey, and what the traveller needs from it. We match the coast to the pace of the trip.

Explore by Coastal Style

Not every beach stay is the same kind of beach stay.

A long resort beach, a quiet bay, a private island and a small coastal house each give you a different kind of week by the sea.

Two Coastlines

Beach resorts across Vietnam and Cambodia.

Vietnam has the longest coastline in the region. Cambodia’s coast is shorter but full of character. Laos is landlocked, so its slower stays are by the river and the lake.

Vietnam

The longest coastline in Indochina, from Phu Quoc and Con Dao in the south, up through Nha Trang, Quy Nhon, Da Nang and Hoi An.

Explore Vietnam Beach Resorts →

Cambodia

A shorter but very charming coast, with Kep and its old-fashioned seaside atmosphere, plus the islands of Koh Rong and Koh Rong Sanloem in the south.

Explore Cambodia Beach Resorts →

Laos

Landlocked Laos has no beaches, but it has riverside and lakeside stays that offer the same sense of slowing down after the cities.

More Than a Beach

Notes that explain what the coast is really like.

Beachfront can mean steps from the sand, or a short shuttle ride. A sea view can be the whole horizon, or one corner from the top floor. Our notes make the difference clear before you book.

For Hotels

Do you run a beach or island resort?

Asia Travel Mates works with beach and island resorts across Vietnam and Cambodia. If your resort sits on a coastline that guests will remember, whether that is a long beach, a quiet bay or an island of its own, we would like to hear about it.

We are especially interested in places where the setting itself is part of the reason guests come, and where the sea shapes the rhythm of the stay.

Our Philosophy

Why the beach matters at the end of a journey.

After a week of cities, temples and long roads, the coast is where a journey settles.

01

The Right Coast

A long resort beach, a private bay and a small island each give a different last week. The coast should match the pace of the trip.

02

Space and Quiet

By the end of a journey, most travellers want space. A villa, a terrace, a pool, a beach. Somewhere the day can move slowly.

03

A Room With a View

The difference between a room that opens to the sea and one that opens to a car park is worth understanding before you book.

Good to Know

Beach resorts in Indochina. A few questions, answered.

What is a beach resort in Indochina?

A beach resort in Indochina is a coastal place to stay built around the sea. Most have direct beach access, a pool, gardens and restaurants, and there is plenty of space to slow down. Some are large international resorts, while others are small, quiet retreats with only a handful of rooms.

Which are the best beach destinations in Vietnam?

Phu Quoc, Nha Trang, Da Nang, Hoi An, Quy Nhon and Con Dao are the main beach destinations in Vietnam. Phu Quoc and Nha Trang suit longer stays by the sea. Da Nang and Hoi An let you combine the beach with a city or a historic old town. Con Dao is for travellers who want quiet, nature and very few crowds.

Which islands in Cambodia are worth staying on?

Koh Rong and Koh Rong Sanloem are the main islands in southern Cambodia, with a mix of small resorts and simpler beach stays. Kep, on the mainland coast, has a quiet, old-fashioned atmosphere and a handful of lovely small hotels.

How does a beach stay fit into a longer journey?

A beach stay usually comes at the end of a journey, after time spent in cities and historic places. It pairs beautifully with a Mekong cruise, a northern Vietnam route, or a longer trip through Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos.

Are beach resorts in Indochina good for families?

Yes. Many resorts have family rooms, kids’ clubs, shallow pools, calm beaches and easy access from the airport. The best one for you will depend on the ages of your children and how much you want to move around.
