Situated in Northern Vietnam’s mountainous Mai Chau region, Avana Retreat is a sustainable jungle sanctuary that combines full nature immersion with organic, plant-rich Vietnamese cuisine. The views are truly spectacular, with rolling hills, verdant forest, a spectacular on-site waterfall, and terraced rice paddies creating a very special space that blends Vietnamese, Thai and indigenous Muong and H’mong cultures. The result? a truly tranquil 36-room retreat spread over 15 hectares that’s intimately connected with the surrounding natural environment.
Avana Retreat has just announced Avana Immersion, a new two-night package that gives visitors to Vietnam a real taste of the property. This package includes two nights in the Bauhinia Mountain Suite with daily breakfast, two lunches and two dinners at Green Chili, the hotel restaurant that harvests its own veggies, herbs and spices from the on-site garden. You are also entitled to a three-hour guided trek, a jeep tour of the local villages, daily yoga at the property’s 50-year-old open air stilt house, a 60-minute massage at Orchid Spa and a local craft workshop.
