Suggested exclusive afternoon activities at Silk Sense

Afternoons in Hoi An have a very special charm. The golden sunlight gradually fades, and the breeze from the Co Co River carries a refreshing coolness, as if the whole space slows down. This is the ideal time for guests to pause from long journeys and find a slower rhythm of life.

What makes Silk Sense Hoi An River Resort special is that you don’t need to go outside to discover new experiences. Right within the resort, a “living painting” of Hoi An’s culture, sports, and daily life has been recreated. The afternoon activities here not only help guests relax and engage in light exercise but also provide a connection with nature, people, and the local cultural identity.

If you are looking for a fulfilling afternoon, explore the exclusive activity sequence at Silk Sense, where every experience is thoughtfully prepared with care and love for Hoi An.

Pickleball: Kickstart your afternoon with energy

Have you ever heard of pickleball? This sport is rapidly gaining popularity worldwide, considered the “new mental snack” in the US and Europe, and now it’s available at Silk Sense. Pickleball is an exciting blend of tennis, badminton, and table tennis, bringing lively action while being extremely easy to play for all ages.

The pickleball court at Silk Sense buzzes with activity every afternoon. Regardless of age or skill level, all you need is a light paddle, a characteristic ball, and a joyful spirit to start an energetic match.

What makes visitors love this sport is its sense of connection. On the court, families can exercise together, friends can form teams and create unforgettable moments filled with laughter. International guests can easily join in as the rules are simple and don’t require complex techniques.

Pickleball not only helps improve physical fitness but also boosts positive energy throughout your stay. When your body moves, your mind feels lighter and happier. And what could be better than vacation memories filled with cheerful laughter on the sports court?

Learn Vietnamese: Touch the charm of the Vietnamese language

Language is the gateway to touching the heart of a culture. For international visitors, Hoi An is not only beautiful because of its ancient town or cuisine but also because of the friendliness and warmth of its people. And to connect more closely with the locals, Silk Sense offers a special experience: learning basic Vietnamese right at the resort.

In a small and fun class, you will be guided through common conversational phrases:

• “Xin chào!” to start a conversation
• “Cảm ơn!” to respond to a street vendor’s smile
• “Hẹn gặp lại!” to leave a good impression with new friends

Just a few simple words, but when you speak them in Vietnamese, a small miracle happens: the eyes and smiles of Hoi An locals become more familiar and affectionate than ever.

Many international guests have shared that the Vietnamese experience at Silk Sense made them feel they truly “belong” here. They are not just visitors, but friends, warmly welcomed in the heart of Hoi An.

Farming Tour at Caman Village – Discover a miniature countryside of Hoi An

Right within Silk Sense, you can find a miniature Hoi An at Caman Village – a lush organic garden. This is a place that recreates traditional agricultural life, offering a unique experience for visitors who want to reconnect with nature and the Vietnamese village culture.

On a gentle sunny afternoon, you can leisurely stroll around the green vegetable gardens, listen to the rustling leaves, and breathe in the rich scent of fresh earth. Guests will participate in engaging activities:

• Sowing seeds and tending the vegetable beds by hand
• Harvesting clean and safe vegetables
• Listening to stories about organic farming, where every drop of water and every branch is nurtured with care

Moreover, Silk Sense also offers opportunities to play traditional games such as Vietnamese Mancala (o an quan), jump rope, or simply laugh together with local children in countryside games.

This experience helps visitors, especially children, better understand traditional farming life and the value of simple labor. Many families share that the moment their children personally harvest vegetables and play freely in the garden makes them feel that the holiday becomes much more valuable and meaningful.

Countryside snack baskets with the flavors of Vietnamese childhood

When the Vietnamese countryside is mentioned, the image of a simple carrying pole often appears in memory. And Silk Sense has recreated that right within the resort grounds, with the “Countryside snack baskets” program for guests in the afternoon.

Here, you will come across carrying baskets filled with rustic treats: glutinous rice cake, flat steamed rice dumplings, sweet soups, peanut candy… all of which evoke the childhood of countless generations.

What’s interesting is that international guests who try these rustic treats are often pleasantly surprised. They do not expect that from simple ingredients like rice, beans, and banana leaves, Vietnamese people can create flavors that are so delicate and full of emotion.

For many Vietnamese, the countryside treat baskets at Silk Sense bring a sense of familiarity, as if returning to childhood, where afternoons were spent following their mothers to the village market. This is exactly the special value that Silk Sense wishes to convey: a bit of memory, a bit of affection, within a meaningful, heartfelt vacation journey.

Connecting experiences, making your afternoon more meaningful at Silk Sense

The common thread among all the afternoon activities at Silk Sense is the sense of closeness, ease of participation, yet rich in emotional value. You don’t need to leave the resort, but you can still touch every layer of a fulfilling getaway:

• Vibrant energy with sports (pickleball)

As the sunset gradually falls over the Co Co River, travelers will feel their hearts become lighter and filled with positive energy. And that is when you realize: an afternoon at Silk Sense is not simply a moment of rest, but a journey of discovery, connection, and the creation of unforgettable memories.
