Private transportation: 7–29-seat vehicles available according to group size
Begin with onsen rituals, movement & tea meditation before discovering Hue through its river, royal cuisine, ancient traditions and contemporary crafts.
Then leave the city behind for the coast, where unhurried resort time, lagoon life, kayaking and a sunset dinner create space to simply slow down and reconnect.
A journey that brings together wellness, culture, gastronomy and nature, with enough freedom to enjoy each experience in your own way.

Itinerary
DAY 1: HUE
ARRIVAL
Arrival at Phu Bai International Airport. Meet-and-greet at the arrivals hall with our local host and a private air-conditioned transfer. This first touchpoint is deliberately unhurried, a soft landing that allows guests to decompress from air travel before easing into the resort's therapeutic programming.
A short scenic drive through Hue's outer districts en route to the resort. Early check-in is prioritized subject to availability, ensuring guests have the full afternoon window to devote to their onsen ritual.
AFTERNOON WELLNESS AT KOBI (On guest's own account and choice of services)
Duration: 2.5 hours
A nine-step Japanese onsen journey drawn from the My An mineral spring, operated to Kawara standards. Thermal pools at 42°C, a bracing cold plunge, then the four Ganban rooms: hot stone, Himalayan rock salt, IKI essential oil steam, and snow room. Finish with Yomogi herbal steam, a mineral mud bath, and rest at the Nap York pod.
Guests may dine on-property at Kobi or at a nearby local restaurant. We recommend prioritizing signature Hue specialties, bun bo Hue, com hen, and banh khoai, to round out the day's sensory experience with the region's culinary heritage.
WIND DOWN
Duration: 1 hours
An intentional close to the day: a stroll around the koi lake, quiet reading, or simply retiring to the room. As the body continues its post-onsen recovery for several hours after treatment, low-stimulation activity is advised to preserve the session's relaxation benefits.

Together, these practices offer a gentle transition into a grounded and mindful state.
Tôn Anh Duy is a dedicated mindfulness practitioner from Hue, specializing in movement meditation, tea meditation, and somatic awareness. Inspired by the tranquil and contemplative spirit of Vietnam's ancient capital, his sessions invite participants to reconnect with the body, deepen their breath, quiet the mind, and discover a more embodied sense of presence.
