Experience Da Nang
Da Nang, sorted — in one place
Planning a trip to Da Nang should not mean a dozen open tabs. I keep the hotels, the things worth doing and the area notes in one place, ranked from recent traveller reviews and current listings.
Hotels are ordered by guest scores, not by who paid us. Activities get in on published ratings. If a place is not worth the time, I say so.
Everything,
in one place.
Hotels, things to do, and area guides for Da Nang. I put them in one place and rank them straight, so you can plan the trip without twelve tabs.
5 neighbourhoods
Where you stay changes the whole trip. Each area pulls a different crowd. Here is how I would pick.
Da Nang's main beach strip: 9km of sand, most of the tourist hotels, and seafood restaurants within walking distance of the water.
Explore My Khe Beach → The Han River side of Da Nang: Dragon Bridge, Han Market, cafes, nightlife, and cheaper hotels with a 10-minute Grab to the beach.
Explore Da Nang City Centre →
The forested peninsula north-east of Da Nang: home to the Lady Buddha, secluded resorts, coastal viewpoints, and red-shanked monkeys.
Explore Son Tra →
Da Nang's quiet southern beach, backed by the Marble Mountains: luxury resorts, a stone-carving village, and 30 minutes from Hoi An.
Explore Non Nuoc →
The ancient town 30km south of Da Nang: lanterns, tailors, riverside restaurants, and a pace of life worth more than a day trip.
Explore Hoi An →The Da Nang hotel list
Ranked by guest score out of 10, from stays with 50 or more reviews. Da Nang first. Live prices, no sponsored placements.

Three days is enough to cover Da Nang's highlights without rushing. A city day with beach and the Dragon Bridge fire show, Ba Na Hills or Marble Mountains plus Son Tra, then a full day in Hoi An. Here is exactly how to pace it.
