The best 5-star resort in Hoi An for Foreign Tourists

Hoi An, the ancient city renowned for its unique cultural and historical values, has always been an ideal destination for Foreign visitors. Here, Silk Sense Hoi An River Resort is not only a luxurious 5-star resort but also a perfect blend of relaxation and rich cultural experiences. With a lush green space, modern amenities, and dedicated service, Silk Sense is an excellent choice for foreign tourists seeking perfection in their exploration of Hoi An.

Hoi An – Vietnam’s Top Destination for Foreign Tourists

Hoi An is one of Vietnam’s most famous tourist spots, attracting not only domestic tourists but also a large number of Foreign visitors. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999, Hoi An preserves the ancient charm and peaceful atmosphere of a prosperous trading port from the 16th-17th centuries. This small town was once a bustling hub for merchants from China, Japan, and Europe, offering a unique cultural blend that remains almost perfectly intact today.

In 2023, Hoi An recorded 4 million visitors, with 3 million international tourists—a 327% increase compared to the previous year (according to Nguyen Van Lanh, Vice Chairman of the Hoi An People’s Committee). Tourists from countries such as South Korea, Australia, the United States, the UK, China, and many others have made Hoi An one of Southeast Asia’s leading destinations. Visitors come not only for the golden, timeworn houses but also for the peaceful lifestyle and the car-free environment of the ancient town, offering a sense of tranquility and a distinctive experience compared to other destinations. Hoi An is a “quiet city” where tourists can slow down, enjoy cafes, traditional markets, and colorful craft shops.

Hoi An especially attracts tourists through its green tourism models, such as visiting rural villages, learning pottery at Thanh Ha Pottery Village, or experiencing daily life at Tra Que Vegetable Village. According to local reports, thousands of visitors experience sustainable tourism activities daily, helping to preserve culture and improve local livelihoods.

Notable destinations such as the Japanese Bridge, Quang Dong Assembly Hall, and ancient houses like Tan Ky House and Phung Hung House are also key attractions that make Hoi An a must-visit. Sam Staton, a visitor from New Zealand, once shared, “I spent a whole week just walking around the ancient town, immersing myself in this wonderful atmosphere.”

Hoi An is not just a destination; it is a collection of beautiful memories that make every visitor want to return again and again.

What’s included in the Green Tourism Model and Cultural Experiences in Hoi An?

What sets the signature experience of Hoi An apart in the hearts of Foreign tourists is its green tourism model and cultural experiences, exploring rural villages with rich historical marks. Traditional villages such as Tra Que Vegetable Village, Thanh Ha Pottery Village, Kim Bong Woodworking Village, and the Bay Mau Coconut Forest are integrated into travel itineraries, offering visitors the chance to directly engage in agricultural activities and handicraft production.

Community-based Tourism Linked to Traditional Crafts

Foreign tourists enjoy creating their own handmade products under the guidance of skilled artisans in Kim Bong Woodworking Village. At Tra Que Vegetable Village, visitors can join locals in tending to and harvesting vegetables, learning about sustainable farming techniques.

In Thanh Ha Pottery Village, a 500-year-old traditional craft village, visitors can witness the pottery-making process firsthand and create their own unique ceramic items. Meanwhile, at Bay Mau Coconut Forest, basket boat rides weave through the coconut trees, offering a serene experience that connects people with nature.

Hoi An and Quang Nam tourism sites have been working hard to promote traditional crafts and prevent the loss of the local ecosystem. This is a unique feature of Hoi An, especially when compared to many other luxurious tourist trends found in other countries.

Green Tourism Efforts to Reduce Plastic Waste

Hoi An has also introduced several initiatives to minimize plastic waste and protect the environment. Many restaurants and hotels have completely replaced single-use plastic products with eco-friendly materials like paper, bamboo, and banana leaves. Particularly, the no-plastic market model at Thanh Ha Pottery Village has become a standout attraction for visitors.

One exemplary model in this effort is Silk Sense Hoi An River Resort, the first 5-star hotel in Hoi An to receive the “Plastic-Free” certification from the Vietnam Tourism Association. This resort is also a pilot model for the tourism industry in Quang Nam, aiming to develop sustainable green tourism for businesses, hotels, and resorts in the province.

Moreover, Silk Sense Hoi An River Resort proudly holds the Travelife Gold for Accommodation Sustainability certification from the Foreign Sustainable Tourism Organization. To achieve this, the resort completed 154 required criteria, including sustainable management, environmental protection, and human resource management. Notably, to minimize environmental impact, Silk Sense has reduced approximately 54,000 plastic bottles and over 10 tons of plastic waste each year.
