Vietcetera Visits: Maia Resort Quy Nhon's Gastronomy-Led Design

Culinary tourists, this one’s for you. Fusion Hotel Group’s newest resort in the bucolic resort town of Quy Nhon was built around the idea of traveling for food, resulting in a concept that gives center stage to F&B concepts. To see the result, we take you on a tour of the sophisticated all-villa Maia Resort Quy Nhon in Phuong Mai Bay as part of the Vietcetera Visits series.

Tasteful decor

Fashioned with the foodie in mind, Maia Resort Quy Nhon takes the down-to-earth, wellness-focused hospitality of its parent company and seasons it with a liberal sprinkling of delicious surprises.

The resort promises to take guests on a culinary adventure that captures the essences of Quy Nhon’s rich cultural heritage. 

The team behind Maia Resort Quy Nhon believes that dining gives meaning to each hour and punctuates the day. Blessed with abundant seafood, Quy Nhon has always been Vietnam’s default foodie destination.

The arrival of a high-end hospitality concept that celebrates the province’s culinary legacy opens the province up to a new kind of traveler: one who appreciates the finer things in life as much as she enjoys tucking into the fresh catch of the day.

Maia Resort’s signature restaurant Vị (meaning “taste”) is the resort’s culinary and architectural centre-piece. Offering unobstructed views of Quy Nhon Bay’s shimmering waters, the open-air space is warm and welcoming, with a decor that works equally well as a setting for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

A refreshing sea breeze keeps the restaurant cool during the hotter months, meaning guests can dine alfresco year-round.

Sustainable local influences have inspired a myriad of aspects throughout the property. Ranging from recycled fishing boats adorning the villas to handmade granite restaurant ware or locally-woven textiles, guests are given the opportunity to view Quy Nhon through its inherently artistic history. 

All-natural ingredients

Blending minimalist appeal with an all-natural ethos, Maia Quy Nhon was designed to showcase the region’s natural highlights through incorporating them into the designs of the villas, restaurants and spa. From expansive gardens to carefully curated artwork, the property is an unabashed cheerleader for Binh Dinh province.  

Opening in December 2020, Vẽla spa is a seaside sanctuary of wellbeing where holistic therapies cleanse the mind, soothe the soul and revitalize the body. Culinary-inspired treatments use local herbs and botanicals, harnessing their healing and anti-toxicant properties from farm to spa, and promoting internal balance and self-healing. 

Guests can look forward to a beer and malt scrub or a grapeseed oil massage using all-natural products that are organic, gluten- and paraben-free leaving you feeling relaxed, restored and completely refreshed.

Taste of home

Nestled on an idyllic beachside haven, Maia Resort Quy Nhon is a tropical paradise of landscaped gardens and golden sands. Designed to immerse guests in the familiar while being completely transportive, it offers a collection of villas to suit all vacation needs: spacious semi detached villas, garden pool villas and deluxe pool villas.

Each villa is tastefully designed to provide a touch of familiarity coupled with international sophistication and coziness while offering dramatic views.

Stylish private pool villas offer the best of inside and outside living space with all the comforts and conveniences of home. All villas feature outdoor lounge areas, personal bars and sliding glass doors, all the better to let the outside in.
