“The organisation board of the award ceremony picked InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort to host what is considered the Oscar of the tourism industry because we were convinced by the natural beauty, the luxurious facilities, and the world-class service at the resort,” said Graham Cooke, president of World Travel Awards. “We hope the resort is going to leave a good impression on participants.”
InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort is going to ensure the rooms, food, spa, and security are at their very best in order to bring excellent service to the guests. According to the resort management, being picked as the venue for the Asia and Australasia Gala Ceremony 2016 is another testimonial to the resort’s prestige. Moreover, the event is going to put Danang on the list of world-renowned luxury destinations, as the participation of the 180 influential characters on the global tourism scene and the world press will be a chance to promote the image of Danang to tourists all over the world.
InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort is located on Son Tra peninsula in the central city of Danang. It was developed by Sun Group and is managed by InterContinental Hotel Group (IHG). InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort redefines luxury by combining Vietnamese aesthetics with international standards. Set on 37 hectares of stepped gardens leading down to a private beach, each of the 200 rooms and villas guarantees a dramatic view on the crystal clear water of the East Sea.
Decorated with wooden furniture and handmade silk and craft art pieces procured from Vietnam’s many localities, every inch of this luxury resort is proof to the genius of star architect Bill Bensley. A testament to the resort’s unique design and concept, the resort has welcomed a veritable host of high-profile guests, including politicians and celebrities throughout the years.
Over the years, the resort has hosted many important events, such as the Creative Connection International Conference with the participation of over 100 investors and politicians, as well as the World Spa Awards 2015. In 2017, the resort will serve as a venue for a number of activities within the framework of Summit 2017, the 29th meeting of APEC leaders.
