Glam Girls Lux Travels : Discovering An Lam Nha Trang today..

Time for a massage?.. yes.. yes.. this would be a great option for me today..

Accessed by a short speed boat ride..

Picturesque, pristine, and off the beaten path Ninh Van Bay is a hidden paradise waiting to be discovered. There you will find An Lam Ninh Van Bay Villas, an abode to travellers who seek the ultimate indulgence of luxury lifestyle with serenity, peace, excellent food, caring service and a stunning white beach. The 35 private accommodations of An Lam Ninh Van Bay are nestled next to a tropical forest that is casted beneath a luscious green mountain backdrop.

With rolling granite boulders that cascade into our private lagoon and even further beyond, into South China Sea. The Villas of An Lam Ninh Van Bay lay ensconced by the bay of the lagoon and engulfed by the sea breeze. Ninh Van Bay may evoke feelings of being casted away; however to urbane traveller it's a welcomed relief of isolation. Guests arriving by air will fly into Cam Ranh Airport, just 35 kms away from Nha Trang.

Peace decends..

Apart from the ritual of eating.. there's nothing you HAVE to do here! And this ritual brings great pleasures.

One has the option of dining anywhere..

With views like this.. why leave?

Well.. we've got a trip planned here in September..

Itinerary

Elsabé De Wet

Pilates is a body conditioning routine that may help build flexibility, muscle strength, and endurance in the legs, abdomen arms, hips and back. It puts emphasis on spine and pelvic alignment, breathing, and developing a strong core or centre, and improving co-ordination and balance.

Pilate’s method allows for different exercises to be modified in range of difficulty from beginning to advanced methods. Intensity can be increased over time as the body conditions and adapts to the exercises.

We have included a superb Pilates Instructor, Elsabé de Wet, who has her own Pilates Studio in Brisbane, Au. Elsabé will take us through the rigors of Pilates daily, as well as give us one-on-one sessions that will assist in correcting the all important posture.
