Set on Vietnam’s south eastern coast, Bình Thuận Province is a striking coastal region, famed for its beautiful natural scenery. Whether you choose to base yourself close to the port city of Phan Thiết, the area’s capital, or to hide away on a superb stretch of deserted beach, you can expect some seriously special hotels. Our pick of the best places to stay in Bình Thuận Province includes a hugely luxurious oceanfront resort, promising understated glamour and stacks of timeless style.

Begin your explorations in Phan Thiết, where brightly painted boats bob in the harbour. Rise early to join locals in examining the day's catch at the fish market, or flop on the gorgeous beaches of Bai Rang and Hòn Rơm. Wind surfers, kite surfers and sailors will find breezy spots galore for gliding along the waves near the town of Mũi Né, whilst relaxed swimmers and kayakers can marvel at the verdant coastline from the sea. Mũi Né is also known for its lively early morning market — a highlight for foodies.

Keen hikers can scale jungle-clad mountains or trek up to the 19th-century lighthouse on rugged Ke Ga Cape for marvellous views. The Poshanu Cham Tower Complex on Ong Hoang Hill will fascinate culture-minded visitors with its 8th and 9th-century Hindu temples, once part of the Champa Kingdom. The ornate Buddhist Ong Phan Thiet Pagoda, on the other hand, reflects the area’s more recent Chinese influences. Round off your explorations with an unusual visit to a Phan Thiet fish sauce factory before returning to your room at one of the best places to stay in Bình Thuận Province.
