Guest score
Marriott Hotels beachfront resort on Hon Tre Island off Nha Trang, reached by boat or cable car, with 403 rooms plus 426 private pool villas, seven pools and a long private beach.
Last updated August 6, 2026
The Nha Trang Marriott Resort & Spa is a large island resort on Hon Tre Island off Nha Trang, a former Vinpearl property converted to Marriott and reachable only by boat or cable car across the bay. It is one of Marriott's biggest resorts in Vietnam, pairing 403 rooms and suites with 426 two- to four-bedroom villas, many with private plunge pools. Independent reviewers consistently praise the spacious, private villa layout, the attentive and friendly staff, efficient boat and cable-car transfers, and the sheer breadth of facilities: seven pools, a long stretch of private beach, Quan Spa, tennis and newer pickleball courts, and a kids' club. Dining draws steady praise, with a diverse breakfast buffet spanning Vietnamese, Western and Korean dishes and several themed restaurants. The island setting is a genuine draw, delivering a quiet, traffic-free rhythm while keeping VinWonders and Nha Trang city within easy reach. Watch-outs are fair and recurring: as a conversion, some villas show wear, with reports of subpar shower fixtures, poor shower drainage and tired pool decks, and occasional lapses in cleanliness and beach upkeep. Value is debated, with several guests feeling rates run high for what is delivered. Like other Marriott resorts, there is no executive/club lounge, so elite members should not expect lounge access. Overall it suits families and couples wanting a self-contained, private island escape with room to spread out.
