Hon Tam – a green island

      Hon Tam (Silkworm island) has become a familiar name with tourists to Nha Trang coastal city over the years for its wild tropical forest, long beach and clear water. However, after one year of construction the four-star resort Hon Tam Island looks as splendid as a silkworm spiting out silk into the green sea of Nha Trang.
About 7 kilometers southeast of Nha Trang City, construction of the 110-hectare Hon Tam started in November 2007 by Hon Tam Nha Trang Sea Joint Stock Company with an investment of US$35 million.
Setting foot in Hon Tam Island as the sun was setting over East Sea we are amazed by the changes on the island after only one year of construction. The luxurious facilities and modern equipment are in a multi-tiered space, of which the highest tier is 20 meters with an artificial waterfall on its peak, looking like a silver band streaming down the island.
The stylish, tiled-roof bungalows in an Eco Green area are spacious and sophisticated, designed to satisfy the various needs of guests including deluxe and family suites, or romantic hideaways for newlyweds.
The magnificence of the sea, mountain and forest are inspirational and consideration is given to keeping the resort in harmony with its environment, with roads made from pebbles and rocks, and mountain walls turned into green eaves.
On hot summer days the cool water of the 200-square-meter swimming pool shaded with ancient trees will provide a respite for tourists and the three restaurants offer a wide range of cuisine from Western and Asian Fusion, Fast food to delicious Nha Trang Sea food.
Coming to Hon Tam is coming to nature, as the island is covered by hundreds of ancient trees such as tamarind, willow, almond and bamboo as well as an array of colorful flowers such as daisies and sun flowers.
In addition to sightseeing and sun bathing there are a wide variety of activities available on the Island: mountain climbing, hiking, para-sailing, boating, wind-surfing, jet-skiing and especially scuba-diving, to explore the secrets of the ocean world and see thousands of fish and colorful corals around the rocks.
Hon Tam Resort is a wonderful get-away for recreation and health improvement, to reward yourself with a deluxe and relaxing vacation after hard working days.
