Beach vacation: Quy Nhon satisfies the desire for a low-key beach holiday while offering so much more than fun in the sun.

Quy Nhon: Vietnam's coastal city is a short plane ride from Hanoi. Visitors to the area will be rewarded with the city's culturally rich charms.

Anantara Quy Nhon: The 5-star Anantara, a 26-villa, full-service resort, is a recent addition to Quy Nhon.

Beachfront setting: The resort's Sea.Fire.Salt. restaurant offers excellent Vietnamese cuisine and sunset views.

Villa views: The meticulously decorated and detailed villas make for a most pleasant stay.

Life's a Beach: Take a stroll down the beach until you reach Bai Xep, a cute fishing village cluttered with local restaurants and a hostel-cum-bar-restaurant aptly named Life's a Beach.

Getting around: Motorbikes are a great way to explore the area.

Cham Towers: The ruins of Vietnam's ancient Cham civilization are a short motorbike or car ride away from the resort.

Buddhist pagodas: Taking pictures inside the solemn Buddha-filled spaces is not allowed, but paying respects with an incense offering is encouraged.

Picture-perfect: Quy Nhon's relative tranquility adds to its allure.

Wake-up call: Leaning into early mornings during your stay means sunrises like this.
