Good to know
La Siesta Hoi An Resort and Spa is a garden resort on Hung Vuong Street in Thanh Ha, a few minutes from the Ancient Town by bicycle or by the resort's shuttle. Its gardens, pools and programme of activities make it a good all-round choice for families and couples who want resort facilities close to town.
Four pools thread through the gardens, including an adults-only infinity pool and a separate children's pool, so families and couples can each find a quieter corner. Room categories include Deluxe rooms, Veranda Suites and Grand Suites.
Food and drink are spread across several venues. The Temple Restaurant and Lounge and Red Bean Hoi An Restaurant cover the main meals, La Siesta Coffee serves drinks through the day, and Infinity Bar and Feliz Bar are the places for an evening drink. La Spa offers treatments including four-hand massage and Himalayan salt therapy.
The activity programme is a highlight. The resort runs a cooking class, and its list of experiences includes making banh cuon rice rolls, cocktail mixing and silk lantern making, a craft closely linked with Hoi An. It also arranges tours and transfers, and complimentary bicycles and a free shuttle bus make it easy to reach the old town without booking taxis.
The location is convenient for several sights. Thanh Ha Pottery Village is in the same ward, the Ancient Town is a short ride away, and the resort's transport services can take you further afield. On its website the resort cites a 2026 Tripadvisor Best of the Best listing, which is based on traveller reviews rather than an official grading. For enquiries, the resort publishes a main phone number, a separate hotline and an email address, so it is easy to arrange activities or airport transfers before you arrive.
La Siesta suits families who will use the children's pool and activities, couples who want the adults-only infinity pool, and anyone who likes having a programme of hands-on experiences on site. Contact details, including a hotline, are published on the resort's website, and it is worth booking the cooking class or lantern workshop when you confirm your stay.
