Oakwood Ha Long

Oakwood Ha Long is a 5-star resort in Bai Chay, Ha Long, 150 m from Bai Chay Beach, with villas from 264 to 500 m² that have their own kitchens and bathrooms. The resort sits on the beachfront and has gardens and a sun terrace, so families and groups can spend much of the day outdoors. Its accommodation is made up of villas with two to five bedrooms each.

Some villas face the garden and others the lake, and all have a terrace. Air conditioning, a washing machine and a minibar come with every villa, and the two largest have a private pool with pool views. The villas suit groups that want to cook, eat in and share space, rather than a single traveller looking for a hotel-style room.

The facilities include two restaurants and a bar, a fitness centre, a sauna and steam room, a spa and wellness centre, and bicycle rental with bike tours. Families will find a children's playground and a kids' club. Free private parking is available on site with a reservation, and WiFi is free in the public areas.

The rooms at Oakwood Ha Long are all villas rather than standard hotel rooms. The eight types on this page range from 264 m² to 500 m², with two to five bedrooms and room for four to ten guests. Every villa has a kitchen, a washing machine, air conditioning and a minibar, and a private bathroom with a bath. Each villa mixes extra-large double beds with single beds, and two of them also have a king-size bed.

The views and the outdoor space set the villas apart. The garden-view villas look over the grounds, the lake-side villas have terraces over the water, and the two largest Oakwood Junior Villas, at 451 m² and 500 m², add a private pool with a pool view and a coffee machine.
