The Westin Resort & Spa Cam Ranh

The Westin Cam Ranh occupies lot D14a on the northern Cam Ranh peninsula in Cam Hai Dong. On the Bai Dai strip, the same stretch as Radisson Blu and Fusion. It holds 207 rooms, suites and villas, nineteen of them pool villas.

Three pools and four places to eat and drink. The second number matters more than the first, because on Bai Dai you eat on site nearly every meal: four outlets means four days without repeating yourself, while a resort with two has you reciting the menu by the third.

The Westin brand sells itself on wellness: the beds, the fitness, the food, so if the trip is pure rest, this is aimed at you. If you mean to move around, distance is the deciding number instead.

And that distance is the standing Bai Dai trade: Cam Ranh airport is close, central Nha Trang about thirty-five kilometres away. Every dinner in town is a round trip, so price a meal package against à la carte before booking.

Other places to stay in Bãi Dài and Cam Ranh: The Arena Cam Ranh, JW Marriott Cam Ranh Bay Resort & Spa, CaraBeach Retreat Cam Ranh. The beach for this whole strip is Bãi Dài; on the way back to the city, Từ Vân pagoda.
