Emeralda Resort Ninh Binh

A countryside sanctuary at the gateway to Vietnam’s ancient capital

Where rural charm meets eco-luxury in the heart of nature

Nestled on the edge of Van Long Nature Reserve, Emeralda Resort Ninh Binh offers a serene escape that blends the soul of northern Vietnam’s countryside with refined comfort. Designed like a traditional Tonkinese village, the resort evokes the feeling of a peaceful retreat far from urban life - yet remains within easy reach of Ninh Binh’s iconic sites like Trang An, Tam Coc, and Hoa Lu Ancient Capital.

Set across lush gardens and lotus ponds, the 172 guest rooms and suites feature tiled roofs, wooden beams, private terraces, and outdoor showers - providing a deep connection to nature without sacrificing comfort. Local textures and handicrafts enrich each space, reflecting the region’s cultural authenticity.

Guests can enjoy seasonal Vietnamese cuisine at Sen Restaurant, relax by the saltwater pools, or unwind at La Cochinchine Spa, which offers traditional Vietnamese herbal therapies and wellness rituals.

Ideal for families, couples, and nature lovers, Emeralda also hosts hands-on experiences - from buffalo cart rides and traditional cooking classes to cycling through rice paddies and exploring hidden caves by boat.
