Radisson Blu Resort Cam Ranh

The early morning noodle bowl was a highlight. I’m pescatarian and had asked for a particular curly instant noodle I remembered from a visit years ago. The chef is fairly new, but still made sure a huge, lovely bowl was ready for us at 6:30 AM. That personal effort really stood out. The SPA team also listened carefully to my massage preferences, and we were given ginger tea twice. They even pointed us toward a place to buy good local coconut cookies. Around the resort, the mood was peaceful and quiet, the staff were polite and professional, and our room was spotless after daily cleaning. It was an easy place to recharge, and we left very happy. We’ll be back.

The breakfast buffet was good, though I would have liked a wider range of meat dishes. Everything else during my four days in a Radisson Blu pool villa was impressive: the room was in superb condition and exceptionally clean. I’d spent four nights in the city before moving here for a restful break. The staff’s service was excellent, especially Dat, whose care for guest satisfaction felt sincere. I hope to return for another holiday.

The beach was private and lovely, and you can walk a short way to movenpick beach bar. Seafood restaurants nearby will pick you up and take you back for free, which was a nice touch. It’s also only about 10 minutes by car from the airport, and suite or villa bookings like mine include one-way airport pickup. In the end, the holiday was worthwhile despite some oddities. I booked a beachfront villa with executive lounge access, expecting private check-in there. Instead, I queued like a regular guest and had to stand without lounge seating. It felt a bit chaotic. The lounge itself was more like an average bar with little care: when my fiance and I went up, the tables were messy, kids were wandering around, and a cartoon was playing on the screen by the kids club. The cocktail wasn’t very good either. The villa opened onto a public activity lawn, so the view was completely exposed and people could easily access the area. There wasn’t much privacy. The master bathroom also faced the upper villa, making it feel like a shower show if you don’t mind that.

Breakfast was included, with a buffet that had enough variety for different tastes. Since it wasn’t very busy during our stay, we made good use of the poolside cabanas, cocktails, and restaurants. The food was good quality and portions were generous. The daily shuttle into Nha Trang was a real bonus. We arrived just as tropical storm Koto was expected and weren’t sure whether to head north or wait it out. I’m glad we stayed. Our room looked out over the beach, so we could watch and hear the rough sea. The grounds were immaculate, and the staff were amazing, professional, and friendly. Despite being only 10 minutes from the airport, there was no plane noise to spoil the atmosphere. We highly recommend Radisson Blu.
