Relaxing time away”
Enjoyed our relaxing three night stay at Golden Sand. Although location is about 15mins drive from the inner Hoi An city centre, shuttle buses provided by the resort made venturing out to explore Hoi An a lot more convenient. Unfortunately our stay was accompanied by rainfall and cloudy days, but it didn't stop us from swimming in the beautiful pools of Golden Sand! One minor issue would be the Wifi, available throughout the resort, however weak in strength and frequently dropped out.

Dear Cindy: We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us during your recent visit to Hoi An and we were also very surprised by this unusual wet weather during this time of year! We thank you for your comments on the Wifi and will look into immediately to improve the service. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon! Kind regards, General Manager
Great stay”
The staff were so chatty and helpful. The shuttle bus could have been more regular but was very reliable. The hotel was actually lovely and our room was always clean and modern and big and great views. Lovely pool and pretend/make shift beach abs beach front bars. It was heart breaking to see the effect of the weather and erosion on the coast line and businesses along the Cua Dai beach including restaurants and other resorts. Would definitely go back to Golden Sand.

Lovely beach side resort”
Excellently located on the beachside, far enough away from Hoi An to be very peaceful and relaxing, but close enough that it was an easy 10 minute free shuttle ride into the Hoi An old quarter. The resort is great for families with kids - our kids loved the 150m pool, but also had a real 5 star resort feeling. What struck us was how friendly and helpful staff were. The staff in the Boathouse restaurant were especially wonderful. I would return without question to stay at the Golden Sand Resort and Hoi An, while very touristy, is one of the most amazing spots in SE Asia.

Great resort with kids”
We had a great stay at the golden sand resort. The pool is awesome and the kid pool kept our two years old entertained for ten days. They also have a staffed play room and we left our son there every morning during breakfast, he loved it. So we could enjoy fully their very good breakfast. The rooms, pool and service is great. Only issue, it's 15 min away from the old town and the shuttle bus is only a few times a day and often full. But it's easy to get a taxi and it costs about 4 euro.

Great place great pool”
Awesome location. We had interconnecting rooms on the ground floor right next to the pool. Breakfast was busy but heaps of food available. Taxis right out the front of the hotel and is only a $5 ride to the city. Bikes available and is a really quiet area to ride around except when the tours finish and the buses roll down. Only down side was the pool was warm but it was 36 degrees every day so there's not much to be done about that. Must try the Hoi An spring rolls anywhere in town and the restaurant down the road called nhu bau.

We'll stay again”
Lovely staff members, always polite and attentive. Grounds and rooms in great condition and always clean. The resort is in an area which has been devastated by sand erosion and so doesn't have the lovely beaches that it had even 10 years ago. Lots of restaurants and small shops within walking distance though. Good beaches just a couple of kilometres up the road. The resort pool is 150 metres long and the staff will happily tell you that it is the longest pool in Viet Nam. Poolside food and drinks were quick to arrive and good quality.

The hotel was a perfect sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of travelling Vietnam”
This is certain a five star hotel. We could not fault anything. The staff were friendly and the facilities, especially the fitness centre and swimming pool were excellent. The rooms were spacious and very clean. The gardens around the hotel were colourful and fragrant. The beach to the front and side was clean and sandy. The breakfast catered for all tastes and was plentiful. The free shuttle bus made visiting Hoi An easy. We were very happy with our stay.

Great getaway!”
Even though my stay was short, it was certainly one of the best stay. The staff was very friendly, always prepared to go out of their way to help. The view was spectacular from most corner or the resort. Most importantly, it was very peaceful and relaxing. Definitely would come back here if ever in Hoi An!

A very good resort that has not kept up with the others in the area.”
We stayed here for seven nights, drawn by its location and facilities. Our check in was very quick and we where upgraded to the next room level. William the Front Office Manager also arranged for two shuttle bus services to the ancient town the following day for us. Our room was very clean with a view to the pool. The king bed was soft and comfortable, the room was large in size. The bathroom had a large bath with a separate rain shower. Cleaning staff serviced the room twice daily. There has been a change in management here for the better. Occupancy rates was around 60% and a lot of rooms are being rejuvenated, to bring them up to a better standard. The 150 meter swimming pool was a welcome relief from the heat and you could always find a quiet area to relax. There is a swimming beach to the side of the resort which is well maintained (by the resort ). Staff need more training, to bring them up to a standard required for this level of resort. One night we had sunset cocktails by the pool and ordered Mango Margaritas, the glasses where not salt edged. We asked the bar staff,why? Their response was " forgot to ". The salted peanuts arrived after our second order of Margaritas. Another evening we ordered Mojitos and the mint nor the lemon(lime) was not muddled. Peanuts didn't make an appearance until we had finished our second Mojitos. We ordered a Margarita pizza they left out the basil, always the same response "forgot ". Once management addresses this shortfall and we are certain they will. Overall, this resort was unbeatable value and we had a good time here.

Week long holiday in Vietnam”
Pleasant hotel, we were upgraded to better room, however I have to say the weather was bad for all our week in Hoi An. Also I made a mistake: I didn't notice that in that dream place, 30 km beautiful beach, that hotel didn't own a private beach, instead its sea was protected with stones, therefore no sea swimming possible. However don't worry, pool was huge enough and clean, and also there was a spa and gym for those who prefer not spend all day at downtown. Staff was also kind enough to offer us a take out breakfast while we had an early check out. All in all a pleasant hotel, not the top one to enjoy Central Vietnam beautiful beach but a nice one and I'd recommend it.

Fantastic week in Hoi An”
The hotel was wonderful, there is a complimentary bus that takes you in and out of the old town Hoi An. The pool is wonderful never an issue on finding a sunbed. My only critic would be the pool man coming round to offer drinks more frequently aside from that minor would definitely recommend and would definitely return!

Relaxing”
Great spacious room, very big pool, great small beach just next to the resort, 10 minutes from town (around $5AUD taxi into town or free shuttle buses), excellent gym facilities, great massages at the hotel spa. Left the resort feeling very relaxed.

Definitely revisit here”
A great atmosphere and friendly staff, would stay here again. It was a little out of town of Hoi An but taxi was roughly $100,000 each way. Most resorts are a little out but well worth it.

Beautiful hotel”
This a very relaxing and gorgeous hotel. The room we had was large with a huge very comfortable bed. The rooms were tidied twice a day with a turn down service. The pool is huge with a separate children's pool with an activity feature. This looks out into the South China Sea. The beach is to the right of the hotel. The cocktails served at the beach bar were top quality we had Mai Tais and they were fantastic. The breakfast was buffet style with just about everything included. All were of top quality and delicious. The staff were always so very helpful and friendly. I would fully recommend this hotel as it is a nice little bit of luxury

Nice resort for relaxation not exploration”
Gorgeous resort and facilities. Bit of a walk to the town centre and a long shuttle bus to the old town of Hoi An. Seems like it was in the middle of nowhere so difficult to pop out for dinner if you don't fancy eating at the resort. Wifi was also terrible. Everything else was great. Lovely place to relax.

Resort Relaxation...”
A large resort lacking in personal engagement with guests. Our arrival was slow and unwelcoming due to a function set up in the main foyer area. The free shuttle service into Hoi An needs to be more regular than 4x per day. Water activities could also be available earlier before the heat of the day sets in. We stayed for three nights in a family suite which was clean and well appointed. The huge swimming pool is lovely and never crowded.

Wouldn't stay again”
There was nothing about this resort that would lure me back. There is no beach directly opposite the resort any more. It has moved 150 metres away and you have to negotiate a cyclone fence and no designated path to get there. The pool was ok if you have a family with young kids. The food was nowhere near 5 star standard and the dining room felt more like a cafeteria with food to match. If you like Richard Clayderman then this resort is for you. His incessant and monotonous tickling of the ivories seemed to follow me everywhere and drove me crazy. Of the 12 or so items available from the minibar, 8 were unavailable. Really Golden Sands? Can't get any crisps or nuts in? Never thought of offering minis of spirits so one can enjoy a G&T in the quiet of ones room? It is ok to offer western food to tourists that don't want to embrace vietnamese cuisine 24/7 but please make your local food better because that is what i want to eat when i am in vietnam. You should be at least as good as some of the great food i ate in Hoi An. I am being harsh because you think you are a 5 star hotel. Sorry but 3.5 from me.

Good value for money”
Great value for money with lovely staff. The food is quite limited but there is variety of restaurants plus with trips to Hoi An there is enough to keep you happy for a week.
