Discover Tranquillity at Namia River Retreat: A New Wellness Haven in Hoi An

0

Located on the serene Cồn Ba Xã Islet, Namia River Retreat invites guests to experience a harmonious blend of cultural discovery and wellness. This wellness-centric resort, opening its doors on 15 December 2024, boasts 60 exclusive private pool villas with breathtaking views of the Thu Bon River and its lush Nipa Palm Forest.

As part of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH) Considerate Collection, Namia seamlessly integrates sustainability, cultural preservation, and community engagement into its offerings.

A Wellness-Inclusive Philosophy

Namia sets a new standard in hospitality with its wellness-inclusive concept. Each stay includes a 90-minute daily wellness journey, ensuring every guest receives moments of relaxation and rejuvenation. This offering features:
– A personalised herbal prescription crafted in the on-site apothecary.
– A 30-minute herbal hammam inspired by traditional Vietnamese steam therapies, featuring locally sourced herbs.
– A 60-minute traditional therapy session, tailored to restore balance and vitality.

For deeper immersion, Namia’s all-inclusive Ritual for Release retreat focuses on detoxification, emotional healing, and energy restoration, guided by experienced Vietnamese wellness practitioners.

The Essence of Vietnamese Herbology

At the heart of Namia’s wellness approach lies Thuốc Nam, a traditional Southern Vietnamese herbology practice. Collaborating with local herbalists and cultural experts, the resort has curated a range of treatments that reflect these age-old remedies. Highlights include:

  • Diện Chẩn, an oriental facial reflexology method designed to harmonise energy flow.
  • Authentic techniques such as cupping, moxibustion, acupressure, and traditional Vietnamese massage.
  • Morning Dưỡng Sinh sessions, a gentle breathing and movement exercise akin to Tai Chi, introduced to Vietnam by historian Nguyễn Khắc Viện.

Namia’s focus on mindful living extends throughout your stay. Begin your day with yoga or meditation by the poolside, and end with a soothing in-room mugwort and cajeput bath soak. Guests are encouraged to slow down and immerse themselves in mindful practices, including a silent walking meditation inspired by Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh.

Cultural Exploration with a Local Touch

Beyond wellness, Namia connects guests with the cultural tapestry of Hoi An. Enjoy unique experiences such as a bamboo bicycle trail, a sundowner river cruise, or a personalised meet-and-greet with a local artisan to craft your own story of the ancient town.
