InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort
The InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort is a luxury hotel situated on a hillside in Thọ Quang, Vietnam, spreading across multiple levels connected by a cable car system. The property contains approximately 200 rooms in 25 separate buildings, multiple pools, dining venues, and a private beach with soft sand at its base.
The resort opened in 2012 and was designed by renowned architect Bill Bensley, who integrated Vietnamese design elements into the structure. In 2017, it hosted a major summit that brought world leaders to the property, giving it international attention.
The resort's name reflects its location on a peninsular site facing the sea. The design incorporates Vietnamese architectural elements such as pagoda roofs and dragon statues throughout the grounds, allowing visitors to encounter traditional cultural symbols as part of their everyday surroundings while staying here.
The resort is located about 30 minutes drive from Danang Airport and is best reached by private transfer or taxi. Golf carts and buggies are available throughout the property to assist with movement over the slopes, and it is recommended to use these if stairs or steep paths present a challenge.
The resort is one of the few places where visitors can see red-shanked douc langur monkeys, critically endangered colorful primates that live in the trees across the grounds. The resort has taken steps to protect these animals by planting trees they prefer and building ladders in the tree canopies so the monkeys can travel safely.
