Experience a 5-star resort stay in a unique heritage setting.

Con Dao Island, a land rich in history, culture, and magnificent nature, always hides fascinating stories waiting to be discovered. In "Marco Polo's Travels," the island was named Poulo Condore by the legendary Italian merchant and explorer, Marco Polo, when he and his merchant fleet stopped there during their voyage from China to Italy more than 700 years ago. Today, this best-preserved island in Vietnam is also known as the home of turtles that travel thousands of miles across the ocean to return to their birthplace to breed.

The Secret Con Dao adds to the story celebrating the timeless beauty of Con Dao by showcasing a part of the heritage architecture preserved in a nearly 100-year-old French colonial-era villa.

When the renovation work began on The Secret Villa and The Secret restaurant, amidst the old-world setting with its ancient gardens, overgrown grass, and roots winding around moss-covered walls, a wooden plaque was found in the ground bearing the faded, ornate lettering: "The Garden of Dream." Beside it, on the characteristic yellow wall of the old villa, a vibrant and beautiful painting depicts sunlight casting shadows on the leaves dancing playfully in the breeze. All of this creates a magical source of inspiration, spreading and sparking ideas for a "dream garden" that harmoniously blends heritage values ​​and contemporary design, offering guests a unique and luxurious resort experience in Con Dao.

Nestled amidst a vibrant tropical garden, the villa retains the timeless charm of French-style houses with red tiled roofs, yellow walls, and graceful long verandas, while the interior spaces are meticulously designed with a new, luxurious, and stylish aesthetic.

Stepping into The Secret Villa, you're immediately struck by the spacious, contemporary-styled living room, with large glass windows that let in abundant natural light and offer stunning views of the sea and lush gardens. The Secret Villa boasts two separate bedrooms equipped with modern amenities. The Heritage room, with its traditional Vietnamese style, exudes a sense of nostalgia and elegance, adorned with beautiful lacquer and oil paintings and warm, dark brown wooden furnishings.

Meanwhile, the Tropical room has a more youthful style, with a small living room overlooking the garden, a charming corner to relax with a fragrant cup of tea and a good book. The airy outdoor bathroom amidst the garden with its unique wooden bathtub is a peaceful oasis, combining the rustic charm of nature with luxurious and elegant amenities.

Located within the villa complex is The Secret restaurant – a place that preserves every brick and old wall steeped in time, harmoniously blended with the strong lines of modern design, featuring wide glass windows overlooking the garden, a spacious vaulted ceiling, and a bar and interior accented in elegant shades of bronze and emerald green.

With its main entrance located right on Ton Duc Thang Street, The Secret restaurant welcomes all guests, both hotel and international. It's appealing with its distinctive Indochinese cuisine, subtly enhanced with local specialties. The restaurant also serves Western-style breakfast, a healthy vegan menu made from grains and vegetables, especially those grown in the villa's garden. And of course, there are the fresh seafood dishes created by the head chef, such as grilled seafood wrapped in banana leaves, The Secret crab cakes, or flavorful crab in tamarind and ginger sauce, taking diners on an unforgettable culinary journey.

Beyond elevating the experience with luxurious accommodations and professional service, The Secret Con Dao also aims for environmentally friendly practices, celebrating the unique aspects of local culture and integrating cultural values ​​into daily experiences for guests. Having just opened in August, the hotel is currently offering attractive packages such as "Secret Romance" starting from only 2,200,000++ VND per guest, including two nights in a Deluxe Ocean View room or Suite; or "Stay & Dine" starting from only 1,900,000++ VND/night/room, etc.
