Advantages: Beach, good nightlife, waterpark

Disadvantages: Bit too resorty

Great beach town in South Vietnam.

We stayed at a lovely little hotel (Phu Que) with a gorgeous roof terrace with hammocks and sun loungers, and a great breakfast service (they bring it up to the terrace for you!).

The beach is nice and there are a number of bars/restaurants along it with their own deckchairs and sunloungers.

Probably the best thing in my opinion is the waterpark which sits on Vin Pearl island which you can see from the main beach in Nha Trang. You get a cable car (~10mins) across there and there are some breathtaking views. In the park there are probably about 10-15 water slides, a wave pool and a lazy river. There are also a number of mechanical rides and a mini rollercoaster too. The view of the sunset from the island is unmissable.

There is quite good nightlife in Nha Trang with a number of bars and clubs open late. I personally didn't think the food there was as good as some other places we'd been in Vietnam but there are so many restaurants i'm sure everyone can find something to their liking.

My only downside of Nha Trang is that it's a bit more built up and 'resorty' than some of the other beaches in Vietnam so the locals didn't seem as friendly and we seemed to pay higher prices for everything there.

Summary: Excellent place to spend a few days beaching by day and partying by night!
