AVANI resort opens in Vietnam

Tropical location for AVANI's latest resort

After launching the third AVANI site, Minor Hotel Group confirms it is looking to acquire more properties in Thailand, Malaysia and Sri Lanka.

The AVANI Quy Nhon Resort & Spa, on the southern coast of Vietnam, has been rebranded from the Life Wellness Resort Quy Nhon and offers a tropical beach resort and spa retreat.

The 63-bed resort offers cliff-side dining, poolside cocktails (or smoothies) as well as activities like kite-flying, Vietnamese cookery classes and language lessons, fishing and kayaking.

The spa, set in a garden oasis, with outdoor bungalows and three indoor treatment suites, features nourishing indigenous ingredients on the treatment list. The signature treatment combines seven different massage techniques, Vietnamese herbs and fresh guava.

CEO of parent company, Minor Hotel Group, Dillip Rajakarier, says this acquisition is indicative of the company’s strategy to expand across Asia: “We are looking forward to growing the brand across Minor Hotel Group’s regions of operation. This new addition in Vietnam will soon be joined by several additional properties here in Asia and there are more to come.”

The first two sites of the two-year-old brand are in Sri Lanka. Launched to complement the five star Anantara brand, AVANI offers “relaxed comfort and contemporary style in city and resort destinations.”
