The future of luxury will be pure and natural.

Vietnam
A country where renaissance is the buzz-word, Vietnam is on the move. Access is
now easier than ever, infrastructure is being upgraded and the countrys famed
entrepreneurial spirit is once again alive and well. It has become increasingly
integrated with the world economy and became a member of the WTO in 2006.
It is a country with an intoxicating sense of vitality and optimism; with vibrant paddy
fields and sparkling-white beaches, dynamic cities and venerable pagodas often
overwhelming in its sheer beauty. The country is strategically positioned, Laos and
Cambodia to the west, China to the north, and ocean to the east & south.
Ho Chi Minh City, or Saigon to use its historical name, is the most active city of Vietnam.
It is located in a prime geographical position, converging many favourable conditions
for economic development.
The city is arguably one of the most lively and charming destinations in South East
Asia, offering a wealth of natural beauty and overflowing with stunning tropical
landscapes, inspiring mountains and ancient architectural treasures. Beautiful old
buildings rub shoulders with temples and fabulous shopping opportunities abound in
Chinatown and in the many boutiques and shops throughout the city.
With a rising economy, a well-educated populace, and modern facilities,
Ho Chi Minh City is considered by many to be the economic, cultural, scientific,
and technological hub of the country.
And from Dong Khoi Street, the citys premier shopping precinct, it is but 25-minutes
by power boat through winding and picturesque waterways fringed with coconut
and mangrove trees, to Six Senses Saigon River.

Six Senses Saigon River

Six Senses Saigon River recreates the nostalgia and romance of Vietnamese river
living of a bygone era. There are 150 guest accommodations in total, which include
Six Senses guestroom and villas, pool villas and suites, plus a Reserve and Retreat.
All areas are interlinked with waterways. The villas front onto canals, and together
with all guestrooms, offer every personal comfort whilst embracing the Six Senses
eco-commitment and core purpose of creating innovative and enlightening
experiences that rejuvenate our guests love of SLOW LIFE*.
Elevated walkways and paths wend their way through thick vegetation and over
the water, creating the feel of a village above the river. Guests are provided with
personal bicycles, whilst all villas are accessible by traditional Vietnamese row boat
and electric vehicles. Personal butlers welcome all arriving guests at the jetty.
Dining and refreshment concepts range from a Vietnamese restaurant that presents
traditional dishes while introducing creative interpretations of popular specialties,
to a French cuisine in a setting inspired by a heritage opera house. The main bar is
in the bustling village square, whilst the floating bar immerses guests into the
ever-changing river scene; and from a noodle shop to an organic Farmhouse
and Mushroom Hut located in the nearby rice field.
Much of the resorts produce is sourced from suppliers in the local region, with plans
underway to establish a cooperative to provide organic vegetables, fruit and salad
for the resort. This approach endorses Six Senses innovation by decreasing the
environmental impact of transporting produce, whilst increasing socio-economic
value to the local community.
As with every Six Senses resort, a Six Senses Spa will be a key element; where
personal sensory journeys are created by skilled therapists. A core menu of
Six Senses treatments offered by more than thirty award-winning Six Senses Spas
around the world is augmented with Vietnamese specialties.

Private Residences
Nourishing feeling for the complete (fulfill) success
In addition to the luxury resort villas, Six Senses Saigon River is offering a limited
number of residential villas for private sale. Owners have the opportunity to
retain their villa for exclusively personal use, or alternatively, to include them in
the resort inventory and receive financial returns on their investment.
These magnificent residential villas are designed with between one and four
bedrooms. Many of the en suite bathrooms feature external garden rain showers,
and master bedrooms offer dedicated dressing areas. Each villa has its own private
swimming pool, spacious living and entertaining areas, and complete food
preparation facilities.
The design of each residential villa complex incorporates the classic Six Senses focus
on all natural and environmentally responsible materials. Echoing the creativity
incorporated in Six Senses award-winning resorts in the Maldives and Thailand,
furnishings are classically simple in the renowned rustic-chic style that has become
synonymous with intelligent luxury. To this, architects and designers have added
some emphasis of regionally inspired features.
Only the latest energy-saving and environmentally responsible equipment,
such as air-conditioning units, is provided for in the villas, which incorporate all
creature comforts - from up-to-the-minute entertainment and audio systems,
iPod universal docking stations, flat-panel televisions and IDD telephones with
WiFi capabilities. Personal gyms, libraries, private wine cellars and spa facilities are
featured in many of the plans.
Additional owner benefits flow from the fact that the villas are integrated into
Six Senses Saigon River. A host of dining alternatives are close by, as are all the resort
facilities such as private catering and butler services, and same day laundry.
There are also many leisure activities, including tennis and health facilities and
a retail village. The Six Senses Spa offers a comprehensive menu of regional and
international therapies and wellness regimes.

The Village
At the very heart of Six Senses Saigon River sits The Village. Authentically reconstructed,
this traditional village is the bustling core from which the soul of the resort radiates.
It is the place to meet, to see and be seen.
Vietnam is a shoppers paradise, and The Village brings a host of local fashions,
bric-a-brac, jewellery, art and handcrafts directly to you.
Then there is the spectrum of dining and refreshment outlets. Imagine old Vietnam
and a classic French cafe. Fine dining is offered in the yesteryear ambience of an
elegant French restaurant. Enjoy Vietnamese and regional specialties or pop
into the pho shop for traditional soup and noodles.
Relax in the Brown and White bars for pre and post dinner drinks, or refreshing
libations at almost any time throughout the day. Enjoy a snack from the deli,
a health boost from the juice bar and be tempted by the ice cream parlour.
The Village is easily accessible from every villa, by water or elevated walkway.
Electric vehicles are also on standby to ferry guests and residents between their
villas and The Village.

Six Senses Spa

Six Senses Spas have received countless awards including Best Spa Group and
triple honours from the Spa Asia Crystal Awards. The first purpose-built eco-spa was
developed by Six Senses and was subsequently adopted by Green Globe as their
benchmark, going on to become the first spa group in the world to operate
such a scheme.
Located on the river bank, the Six Senses Spa at Saigon River, offers seven indoor
and outdoor treatment rooms plus a dedicated Thai massage room, relaxation
areas, yoga pavilion, and sauna and steam. Upon arrival, via a charming wooden
spa boat or on foot, guests may meet with a professional consultant for guidance
with therapies and wellness advise.
Six Senses Spas uniqueness lies in the quest to perfectly balance the human senses,
with a mission to deliver spa experiences that are unique, memorable and
very much beyond expectations. Therapists trained to international standards,
ensure that every treatment has a positive effect on health and energy.

Catering For Every Taste

The elegant Saigon of old, is imaginatively recreated in the French restaurant, with
inspiration for the decor taken from the citys opera house. The cuisine is French
contemporary infused with Asian herbs and spices. It is not only the setting that
reflects a bygone era, the service style also draws upon the authentic dining
experiences of the past. Carving trolleys, table preparation and flamb reintroduce
classical elements of service that are fast being forgotten.
Needless to say that the adjacent wine cellar will offer some of the finest
accompaniments for food, with several hundred labels sourced from both the new
and the old world. In addition to the impressive wines on offer, the clubby White Bar
and Brown Bar are the places to enjoy pre and post dinner drinks, or perhaps a fine
cognac, cigar and stimulating conversation.

On the other hand, hip is in at The Den. With dcor inspired by the mischievous and
indulgent Saigon dens of a century past, our Den is a specialty bar; the trendy place
to be at night with a mood DJ serving up chill music while the bar dispenses great
drinks for good times.
Meanwhile, back at The Village, indulgences include the French cafe and Chocolatier.
In addition to the best coffee in the region, chocoholics can enjoy all manner of
temptations, from beverages to confectionary. Nearby is the ice cream parlour, with
more than three dozen tempting flavours. Or take the high road this once, and drop
into the healthy juice and snack bar for a conscious-free alternative. Seating at both
outlets is inside and alfresco.

Vietnamese Restaurant
Not only is the country of Vietnam taking centre stage as the new destination of
choice, the cuisine of Vietnam is also fast becoming popular the world over.
And at Six Senses Saigon River, the diversity of dishes can be enjoyed at the
Vietnamese Restaurant the resorts main dining outlet. Made up of several timber
and terracotta tiled buildings, the restaurant adds additional interest for diners
with a display kitchen.
Located near the village square, it is an all-day outlet with breakfast and lunch
buffets in addition to a la carte fare. The mood is very casual, with seating
extending to lakeside daybeds. Several private houses are ideal for groups
and special gatherings.
Continuing the Vietnamese theme, is a Pho Noodle Shop, bringing the authentic
flavours of street food in a bowl. Nearby, is an array of comestibles, cold cuts
and collations in the Deli shop.
In this same complex can be found the Main Bar. It is an inviting gathering place
at almost any time, with lounge seating and daybeds, offering a wide selection of
cocktails hard and soft, a selection of beers or a glass or two of wine.
As much of the food and ingredients as possible are sourced from farms and
suppliers in the local region. Cooperatives of farmers grow organic vegetables,
fruit and salad for the resort, resulting in an exceptional quality of fresh produce.
Such practice significantly reduces the environmental impact whilst on the other
hand creating a positive socio-economic impact.
The Organic Farmhouse, Mushroom and Rice Museum goes to the very core of
the resorts environment and social commitment. Surrounded by a rice field,
the organic garden is fully integrated in to the restaurant. Guests observe the
fresh ingredients being picked, then prepared to make favourite dishes.

Relaxation & Rejuvenation

Close by to The Village sits the vast central swimming pool, which faces out to the river. The pool is elevated by four metres, and overlooks an informal all-day
restaurant and bar, which also provides poolside service. For sun lovers, this is an ideal spot from which to catch a few gentle rays whist lounging on the overstuffed
terraced seating balconies.
At sunset, the vista presents a surreal picture postcard cocktail hour while decisions are made as to where to dine for the evening.
One choice is to stay right there and enjoy Cinema Paradiso. In the tradition of Soneva and many Six Senses resorts in the Maldives, Middle East and Thailand,
Cinema Paradiso is the movie experience that draws upon the 50s and 60s... with a twist: Classic movies shown on a large open-air screen beneath a canopy of
stars, and accompanied by cocktails of choice and perhaps some hot-buttered popcorn.
The twist is that, at Six Senses Saigon River, the screen floats on the central pool. It gives an extra dimension to an evening with Bacall and Bogie in Saigon.

For Youngsters
Inspired by a ladybug, then conceptualised into this striking building by architects
and designers, this unique structure is the domain of younger guests and residents at
Six Senses Saigon River.
The facility features some of the worlds most creative experiences for kids, guided by
professional supervision. There is a computer room for visual arts and the latest
entertainment consoles. Cooking classes for budding cooks, a junior cinema and
craft builder wet room will keep visitors immersed for hours. An outdoor playground
offers opportunities to explore nature and work off some energy with a giant slide.
An observation deck adds to imaginative play scenarios.
In the true spirit of a dedicated realm for youngsters, adults should be invited into this
kids kingdom by their children.
Constructed from materials such as timber and bamboo from renewable sources,
this junior hangout is a refreshing and truly exciting experience that children will
remember for a long time to come.
