From sliding through tropical greenery to unwinding by the ocean, this resort has it all.
There’s a certain kind of excitement when you wake up to the gentle crash of waves and the promise of adventure. That’s exactly how I felt during my stay at Radisson Blu Resort Cam Ranh, nestled along Bai Dai Beach—a place where luxury meets nature. This trip wasn’t just about relaxing; it was about diving headfirst into a new kind of experience, courtesy of the resort’s brand-new Rainforest Waterpark.
Rainforest Waterpark: Fun in Every Twist and Turn
I admit, I’m not usually one to gravitate towards waterparks, but the Rainforest Waterpark changed my perspective. It’s not your typical towering slide-and-concrete setup. Instead, imagine lush greenery, gently rolling hills, and pools of varying heights, all cleverly designed to mimic a rainforest. My first slide had me twisting through greenery before splashing into the pool below, and I couldn’t help but grin like a kid again.
The best part? No endless staircases. A short hillside walk got me to the start of every slide. It’s as if nature and fun collided perfectly here. While families with kids seemed to be having the time of their lives, I found it just as enjoyable as an adult. If you’re more of a relax-by-the-pool type, there are serene corners to kick back with views of the mountains and sky.
Highlight: Gliding through vibrant rainforest-inspired slides surrounded by nature’s soundtrack.
A Room with a View (and a Balcony to Match)
After all that sliding and splashing, returning to my Beachfront Pool Villa was a treat in itself. The room had all the trappings of modern comfort: a spacious layout, thoughtful touches, and a patio that opened to a sweeping view of Cam Ranh Bay. Watching the sunset from there felt like a privilege—one I couldn’t get enough of.
For families or groups, the connecting rooms are genius. During my stay, I overheard a family next door remarking how much easier it was to coordinate their plans thanks to the connecting doors. It’s clear that Radisson Blu thought about every detail.
Highlight: Sipping my morning coffee on the balcony, soaking up the view and the gentle sea breeze.
Celebrating Five Years of Excellence
This trip coincided with the resort’s 5th anniversary, and the celebrations were understated yet meaningful. From indulgent massages to oceanfront dining that showcased local flavours, the resort feels like it’s mastered the art of blending luxury with culture. The spa, by the way, is open until 9 p.m.—something I took full advantage of after a long day of exploring. Pro tip: the bamboo massage is unusual but incredibly effective if you’re carrying tension.
The property also introduced me to a few surprises, like the Executive Lounge—a peaceful retreat for anyone looking for a quieter spot to read or work. But let’s be honest, who wants to work with views like these?
Highlight: Taking a salt bath followed by an aromatherapy massage at the spa, which left me both relaxed and revitalised.
The Cam Ranh Difference
Cam Ranh, often overshadowed by Vietnam’s bigger cities, offers a peaceful escape with a unique vibe. Whether you’re seeking adventure at the Rainforest Waterpark or unwinding in luxurious accommodations, this destination has something for everyone. For me, the combination of lush surroundings, thoughtful amenities, and heartfelt service made this trip unforgettable.
If you’re planning a visit to Vietnam, Radisson Blu Resort Cam Ranh deserves a spot on your list. Trust me, there’s no better way to reconnect with nature and indulge in a little luxury at the same time.
