At Six Senses Côn Đảo in Vietnam, I found paradise on earth

Vietnam's best-kept secret island treasure – Côn Đảo! Staying at the legendary Six Senses Con Dao, I can say without exaggeration that this trip completely cured my mental exhaustion! 😭💖 If there's heaven on earth, it must look like this! Can't wait to share this divine experience: 🏠 Living in the embrace of forest and sea: Private pool villas! We stayed in the Ocean View Pool Villa! The moment we opened the door, we screamed with delight! 🤩 The huge private infinity pool seems to merge with the azure South China Sea in the distance! 270-degree unobstructed ocean views – you can see the sea whether lying in bed or soaking in the bathtub! The design features Six Senses' signature wood + stone + thatched roof style, rustic yet luxurious, full of natural charm. Each villa is surrounded by greenery, making you feel like an island owner! 🌿 Highlight: The private pool is temperature-controlled! Perfect for swimming anytime, day or night! Lying by the pool stargazing at night is absolutely magical! ✨ 🍽️ Six Senses culinary journey: Organic + local flavors that stole my heart! Breakfast: At By The Beach restaurant, facing the ocean with made-to-order dishes! Vietnamese Pho, Eggs Benedict, fresh tropical fruits... endless choices with incredibly fresh ingredients! 🍍🥥 Dinner: Tried Vietnamese cuisine at By The Market and seafood at Delicious by the Bay – every bite was a surprise! Must-try: their seafood platter, fresh and sweet straight from the ocean! 🐟🦐 Also the private dining experience – butlers set up a romantic table in your villa, so intimate and unforgettable! Six Senses Ice Cream Parlor: Free treats every afternoon! Exotic flavors like coconut, durian, pandan... pure bliss! 🍦 🌊 What to do? Perfect for both relaxation and adventure! For relaxers: Lounge in your villa pool or zone out at the main infinity pool. The spa is a must-try! Six Senses Spa lives up to its reputation – treatments with ocean views elevate your soul! 💆‍♀️ For explorers: Borrow free bikes from the hotel and ride through rainforest trails, spotting squirrels! 🚴‍♀️ Join free snorkeling! The coral reef in front of the hotel is well-preserved with abundant fish! 🐠 Kayaking/SUP: Explore the calm bay with crystal-clear water! Visit historical sites/turtle conservation center: Learn about Côn Đảo's unique history and ecology (hotel arranges tours). Sunset cruise: Highly recommended! Private boat trip for breathtaking sunsets with champagne – ultimate vibes! 🌅 💚 Most touching details: Exceeding service expectations: Quick-response butlers who anticipate every need (like quietly setting up mosquito nets and turndown service at night). Eco-conscious philosophy: Environmental respect everywhere – reduced plastic, local community support, even glass-bottled water (free unlimited refills). Privacy and tranquility: Few people, stunning views, truly relaxing with only waves and birdsong. Perfect for unwinding, romantic getaways or honeymoons.
