Anantara Mui Ne Resort Unveils Luxurious ‘Dine On The Beach’ Experience
Anantara Mui Ne Resort, the oasis of tropical Vietnamese luxury, is inviting guests to indulge in a truly unique dining experience on the shores of its sandy beaches with its ‘Dining By Design’ concept.
As the sun sets, guests can enjoy the ultimate romantic setting with a specially devised menu prepared by a personal chef and served at a table for two in dreamy locations, anywhere of the guests’ choosing.
To make those special occasions such as birthdays to wedding proposals and anniversaries even more memorable, guests choose a dream setting and their own menu, then share a candlelit meal in privacy by the shoreline pool, or on a secluded stretch of sand.
One of the setting options takes its inspiration from the local boats known as “thung”, which are set up as anchors on the secluded stretch of Vietnamese coastline. The beach ranks as one of the finest in the country, and fishermen still work the waters just offshore, many aboard the same type of traditional boat.
