TIA Wellness Resort, a holistic wellbeing-focused resort along Vietnam’s central coast, has landed two coveted spots on the annual Readers’ Choice Awards for Condé Nast Traveler. TIA was recognized as the number ten spa resort globally in the ‘Top 20 Destination Spa Resorts in the World’ category. The resort was the only property in Vietnam to be called out on the spa resort list and one of just two in Southeast Asia to make the top ten cut.
The property also landed the number 17 spot in the ‘Best Destination Spas in the US & Around the World’ list. It was the only one from Vietnam and one of just three wellness-focused resorts in Southeast Asia that made the list.
More than 575,000 Condé Nast Traveler readers across the United States submitted responses rating their travel experiences across the globe to offer a comprehensive look at the places they eagerly anticipate revisiting. The Readers’ Choice Awards, with their unparalleled legacy as the travel industry’s longest-running and most prestigious accolades, remain the ultimate symbol and acknowledgment of excellence within the travel sector.
“This is the first time a property from Vietnam has landed in the top ten of Condé Nast Traveler’s Destination Spa Resort category,” said Ramon Imper, general manager of TIA Wellness Resort. “I believe this speaks volumes to how Vietnam, and our property in particular, is earning its place on the map as a next-level wellness destination.”
“We have a rich history of wellness practices here in Vietnam along with an abundance of natural and cultural resources and competitive pricing,” added Ramon. “This makes us stand out on the global stage.”
TIA Wellness Resort, situated along the picturesque coastline of DaNang, Vietnam, was created in response to a need for true all-encompassing wellness, rather than just relaxation, out of a resort stay. The resort embraces a total wellness approach from creating personalized retreat programs to wellness-inclusive stays with spa treatments included. At the heart of the property is a 22-treatment room wellness center, set in an expansive oasis of tropical gardens with its own adults-only swimming pool. The wellness space features multiple studios for yoga, breathwork and HIIT classes, along with relaxation areas. The team also offers daily creativity classes to spark imagination and self-connection.
TIA employs 60 wellness therapists along with seven certified yoga instructors, eight breathwork specialists, six creative workshop facilitators, and four HIIT workout trainers.
The restaurants offer wellness-based menus that are nourishing and not restrictive and the culinary team emphasizes plant-based dining. Each of the 87 villas at the property features a private plunge pool. The 2024 Readers’ Choice Awards are published on Condé Nast Traveler’s website at cntraveler.com/rca and celebrated in the November issue.
