After an exciting day
exploring the city of Nha Trang, nothing was better than walking thru
the front gate of the Ana Mandara...instant peace and tranquility.
The service was impeccable...our service mgr. popped up every time we had
a question or were in need of something. The entire staff from the door
man to the head chef were very friendly and caring.
For the price, you cannot beat this resort!!!

Stay in a sea-view room or
risk the perils of sleeping near the moped mayhem of the main road that
rather sadly runs alongside what would otherwise be a beautiful beach.
Our room was excellent, quiet and beautifully decorated with dark wood
and a beautiful four poster bed - all you can hear at night is the quiet(ish) breaking waves on the beach. We were given a non-sea view
room on our last day because we had to hang around and the staff were
very gracious in giving us another room to change in etc. It was nowhere
near as nice and if you can push the boat out definetly get a sea view room - it will change your holiday and it's
only money anyway, you can always borrow more.
The staff were very (possibly too) attentive, desperately trying to flog
you trips to various places whilst your trying to eat your breakfast.
Beyond pleasantries I really don't feel like saying "maybe we'll do that
tomorrow" 200 times to a member of staff (do they work on commission?).
Perhaps that is me being cynical but it did annoy me but they were on
the whole very genuine and kind locals who I think had been whipped into
the realities of capitalism by the owners, keen to squeeze every last
penny off their guests.
The hotel is lovely with two pools, one of them attached to a spa where
treatments were again pricey but very good (my friend assured me of
this - I hope they weren't too good!!!). This does feel like an
international hotel and the service reflects that but I think it loses
some of its charm by being so Westernised in its ways. It does look
beautiful but somehow lacks a little soul but that is perhaps inevitable
if you stay in a top class resort.
Nha Trang itself is an interesting place but not beautiful at all. Ana
Mandara is streets ahead of other accommodation some of which looks
seriously tired and as I mentioned the fact that a main road carves up
the beach from the town is really tragic. Walking down into Nha Trang is
fun and you realise the place really is a fully functioning town and the
sleeping buddha is worth a visit as is a boat trip in-land.
If your looking for the best place to stay in Nha Trang - Ana Mandara is
it but to be honest there ain't much competition. If your looking for a
Vietnamese paradise then Nha Trang is far from that - it is a
fascinating town but it is not beautiful until you get into the
countryside or back to your luxurious bedroom. I loved the place but it
isn't a get away from it all kind of town although if you chose to stay
within the walls of the hotel it could probably feel like it is.

"Sea View" room was not really what 'd expected. The sea was visible...just. However, all facilities were very good.
