Sink into Nha Trang's famous mineral-rich volcanic mud baths at a premium resort spa, then ease into natural hot springs overlooking the bay. This centuries-old Vietnamese wellness ritual — said to detoxify and rejuvenate — is the city's most indulgent signature experience.
What to expect
A short taxi ride from the pier brings you to the hillside resort, where an attendant escorts you to your private mud tub filled with warm mineral-rich volcanic sediment. You soak for 20–30 minutes, allowing the mud to set on the skin, then rinse in a mineral shower before sliding into a series of natural hot-spring pools terraced across the hillside. Complimentary Vietnamese herbal tea and tropical fruit are served poolside. A cool freshwater pool and sun loungers await for the final hour of relaxation.
Good to know
Book the private tub (not the shared pool) for a luxury experience — request this specifically when reserving. The resort is 10–15 minutes from port by taxi. Allow 2–3 hours total. Avoid if you have open cuts or sensitive skin conditions. Bring a swimsuit and leave jewellery on the ship.
