JW Marriott Cam Ranh Bay Resort & Spa

The architecture draws from the ancient Champa civilization, so latticed screens and handmade ceramics run through the whole resort, most visibly at a restaurant where dishes arrive in clay pots beside a working pottery studio. Tropical forest on one side, the South China Sea on the other, seven restaurants and bars in between, and a spa using ingredients grown on the property. A full-scale beach resort, in other words, and a committed one.
