The festive season in Vietnam may not include quaint snowy villages or homes covered in lights, but you can still embrace the magical charms of Christmas and New Year's here while enjoying splendorous beaches and fine dining experiences.

Temperatures in Đà Nẵng at the end of the year drop into the chilly low 20s. Positively chilly by Saigon standards, this sets the mood for cozy nights cuddling up to the people you appreciate most. The perfect accompaniment to such weather is warm laughter, the joyful presence of loved ones, and maybe some comfy sweaters. 

Đà Nẵng is home to many suitable accommodations for savoring the season but the Sheraton Grand Danang Resort & Convention Center combines access to the beach and its remarkable sunrise with luxurious, fully-equipped rooms and festive parties and meals. Vacations away from home always feel special, but their holiday decorations, promotions, and events add a special sprinkle of excitement into the air. Nothing may ever match being a child getting up on Christmas morning to see if Santa has arrived, but waking up to the sound of the ocean and the realization you have a full day of rest ahead of you feels like receiving a gift.

Whether it’s an otherwise separated family all gathering in Đà Nẵng, a couple seeking an escape from hectic city life, or a group of friends eager to enjoy new surroundings, the most important part of the vacation is quality time together. The Sheraton Grand Danang makes this particularly easy thanks to its spacious rooms and expansive grounds filled with lush nature and sea breezes. Year-round pleasures like the massive 250-meter infinity pool, quiet rooms with private balconies looking out onto the placid ocean, and easy access to the city with its plethora of activities for all ages become a bit more special during the holiday season.

Around every corner of the large and airy resort, twinkling decor, decedent ornaments, and seasonal touches remind guests of the special time of year. A light show, in particular, emphasizes the poignant grandeur of a year coming to a close and a new one beginning. Young ones will be dazzled by the colors while older folks may appreciate how the strange hues remind them of how fostering and savoring moments of transient joy and rest is what our species constructed holidays for in the first place.

The festive season is most apparent in the Sheraton Grand Danang’s culinary experiences. On December 24, diners can transport themself to a time when the world seemed more earnest and gentle. Back to the 90s invites guests to return to simpler days without cell phones or the internet, when trends were shared in person, raucous conversations filled tables, and “to go out and play” was the request of every child. Meanwhile, The Last Train for New Year’s Eve celebrates the magical moment when freewill intersects with transportation realities and one’s soul confronts the immense ramifications of choice. Both themes add musical and decorative touchpoints for indulgent buffets for guests of all ages and preferences at Table 88 Restaurant and upscale set menus at The Grill Restaurant.  

If gift-giving is a skill one can practice, then so is gift-receiving. To properly appreciate and share a present certainly contributes to everyone's happiness. Visitors to the Sheraton Grand Danang Resort this year will have an opportunity to do so when taking advantage of the promotions and discounts accompanying the season. Tables reserved by December 1 include 20% off the festive feasts. All bookings for dates between December 20th and January 2nd include discounts on dining, services, and the spa menu.
