We stayed at the Avana Retreat for three days in November 2024. The retreat is in a secluded, rural location in the mountains about three hours outside of Hanoi that is not near anything else, so you are pretty much confined to the retreat for the duration of your stay. The property consists of around 20 villas that are quite large, well appointed, and private. Ours had a lovely view of the surrounding rice paddies and a deck from which we could watch the sunset. The retreat has a spa, yoga studio, bar, swimming pool, and restaurant, as well as extensive grounds that include a beautiful waterfall. The owners went to great pains to incorporate the hotel into the natural environment without too much destruction, and there is a real feeling of being in nature while also having all the amenities of a luxury hotel. There are activities such as hikes that you can sign up (and pay extra) for, although we did not participate in any of those during our stay. The food was quite good and varied and there was a nice selection of different cocktails, along with a well-attended happy-hour offering 2-for-1 drinks and complementary snacks. The staff was excellent and responsive to all of our needs. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were happy that we chose to spend some time away from the typical tourist hubs in Vietnam.
