Virtuoso Traveler - August/September 2018 - 13
Good Morning, Vietnam (SWIMMING PLATFORM) GANSEVOORT TURKS + CAICOS Street food meets the beach at the new Anantara Quy Nhon Villas, set to open later this year. Guests at the 26-villa resort - on a quiet stretch of the country's east coast between Da Nang and Nha Trang - only need to wander to their poolside dining pavilion, where a butler serves meals from a barbecue station. Locally sourced bamboo, wood, and stone add genuine warmth to the resort's villas, which are adorned with traditional fishing baskets and household items reimagined as art pieces. Balance lazy days on the beach or in the jungle spa with adventures such as lessons in vo thuat (Vietnamese martial arts) or snorkeling off nearby Ky Co Island. Doubles from $560; Virtuoso travelers receive breakfast daily and a $100 dining credit. SPLURGE-WORTHY SPLASH Say hello to the new four- and five-bedroom villas at the 91-room Gansevoort Turks + Caicos. On their own hillside half acres a short drive away from the main resort, the lavish spreads have oceanfront infinity pools and private overwater swimming platforms. Villas from $4,500 (four-night minimum stay); Virtuoso travelers receive a welcome amenity, an invilla cocktail bar, and round-trip SUV transfers. EXPERIENCE Paradise The Cove is elegantly situated between Cove and Paradise Beaches creating the feeling of being cast away on a private, white-sand sanctuary. The ultra-luxury property was designed by architect Jeffrey Beers to bring high design together with the bluest ocean and mother of pearl hued sand. The result is an open-air lobby that rises and sets with the day, an exclusive poolscape that gently skims the private beaches, stunning and sensual rooms and suites, a collection of unparalleled dining and shopping and purposeful service delivered with Bahamian warmth. Guests of The Cove enjoy complete access to the wonders of Atlantis including the world's largest open-air marine habitat; Aquaventure waterpark, unique pools; 18-hole golf course; and much more.
