What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
Azerai Ke Ga Bay, on the southeastern coast of Vietnam, achieves it, with Zecha’s characteristic ease.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Inland dragonfruit plantations and coastal sand dunes frame Ke Ga Bay, where an 1899 French lighthouse stands on rocky Hon Ba Island.
The rooms
Suites feature woven rattan screens, pale pebble-wash floors, and deep tubs, while selected villas add private plunge pools facing the sea.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
Four outdoor pools include a beachfront infinity pool with submerged daybeds and quiet courtyard basins.
The spa
The spa has ten treatment suites, offering ginger-scented head baths and scrubs made from local dragonfruit.
Oceanfront yoga
A glass-walled studio and an oceanfront terrace host sunrise yoga, pranayama, and singing bowl meditation.
At the table
The Dining Room prepares fresh local seafood, and The Living Room serves dragonfruit cocktails beside the beach.
How it began
Studio Noor and Adrian Zecha re-imagined the coastal compound around Vietnamese retro-modernism, incorporating local granite and red clay tiles.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.

It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene

Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
