Beach chic
If money is no object, then Mia Resort Mui Ne is a tropical living fantasy come to life.
In addition to beautiful bungalows, the resort has prime beachfront, a pretty pool, a water sports centre, spa and beachside restaurant.
Mia Mui Ne wins the best tropical garden award in town. Nestled amongst the abundant greenery are the stylish beach-chic rooms and bungalows. Interiors are fresh and light due to the soft white walls complimented by fabrics in faded blue, sage green and lilac, as well as sandy beige furniture. Soaring ceilings draw the eye up to a thatch roof and overhead fan. Expect the usual luxury hotel amenities such as minibar, robes, hair dryer, full-length mirror, kettle, desk, WiFi, air-con and fancy toiletries. The bathrooms have design pizzazz: copper sinks, blue tile backsplash, green towels and a shower of patterned tiles.
At this price, Mia has what you would expect of a resort: pool with loungers, sophisticated beachfront restaurant, umbrellas in the sand. They also have their own kitesurfing and water sports outfitter and lessons are available.
Competition is tough amongst luxury resorts in Mui Ne and we noticed good discounts online for many of them, Mia included. Prices listed are rack rates so if this seems just out of reach, it’s worth checking a few online booking sites.
