CostaBella Resort Nha Trang

This is a really great hotel, we loved everything about it. The room was nice and spacious, the bedding and towels were good quality, and the colorful bathrobes were a fun touch. The food was delicious and varied; I don't understand what people are complaining about in other reviews! There's something for everyone, and considering how many guests there are, the staff are truly amazing – they clean up quickly and replenish everything constantly. There's even a separate area for kids. The hotel is really lively and happening, with evening programs for both kids and adults. The animation team is fantastic; they do a great job keeping everyone entertained, starting with morning activities like workouts, yoga, and dancing on the beach. The sea and beach are awesome, with tons of sun loungers. It's an all-inclusive system, and while you could opt for selective dining, I think it would end up being more expensive given its distance from the city and lack of shops. If there was a disco in the evenings, it would be even more amazing! I definitely recommend this hotel.

Let's start with the most important aspect for a seaside vacation. The beach is excellent, very beautiful, and incredibly spacious, with plenty of sun loungers and two bars. HOWEVER! A significant amount of trash is brought in by the currents and washes up on the shore. Hotel staff literally spend the entire day cleaning up what has already washed ashore. If the trash is floating on the surface or underwater, nothing is done about it. It's strange that they've put out buoys but haven't thought to install a net to catch the garbage. They offer golf cart rides to the beach, otherwise it's quite a long walk. There are two pools, located at opposite ends of the property and quite far from the sea, so you can't easily move between them. We didn't try the water park. Overall, service tends to be a weak point in Nha Trang hotels, and this one is no exception. Waitresses and bartenders don't always hide their emotions; if they don't understand something, or you don't understand them, they'll often make a face that clearly implies, "Are you stupid?" or "What nonsense are you talking about?!" The grounds are very green and quite large due to the considerable distance between the hotel and the beach. However, despite its size, much of this space is unused, just empty areas. You're only allowed to walk around the property while the beach is open; at other times, access to most of the area is blocked. Breakfast is almost always crowded (unless you arrive before 7:40 AM). The food is good but repetitive day after day. Due to the huge number of guests, tables aren't cleared fast enough, making it sometimes difficult to find and snag a clean spot. Room cleaning is mediocre at best. There was a lot of dust under the bed, and the air conditioner vent even had almost moss-like dust on it; I had to specifically request that they take care of it. The gym is extremely small, with literally only four machines.

The grounds are well-maintained and lush, with buggies available for transport. The beach is a bit far, about 1.5 km, also accessible by buggy. The room was spacious and the bathroom facilities excellent. It's quite a distance from the city.

The grounds are absolutely beautiful! Super clean and lovely, I enjoyed everything! The only thing missing was a shop on-site for things like water, for example.

The hotel is new, but still under construction. When we arrived, the pool and water slides weren't operational. I went to the gym, and it only had three machines, a barbell, and dumbbells. However, the treadmill and exercise bike weren't plugged in (different plug and socket types). I asked the reception to fix it, and they said they would, but it was never done. The food is delicious and varied. If you only book breakfast, you can buy lunch, dinner, or snacks on-site. Rooms: The rooms are standard. We've stayed in various 4-5 star hotels in Nha Trang, and this one is comparable. However, the shower was a nightmare. If you put the showerhead on its holder (which isn't adjustable and is only suitable for people under 150cm tall), water pours behind the tub (it's not flush against the wall, there's a gap around the perimeter). Since there's no shower curtain and the bathroom floor isn't properly sloped, the water runs onto the floor, flooding the entire area up to the toilet. Basically, you have to hold the showerhead the whole time. The hotel is far from the city (a 30-minute taxi ride, 200,000 VND one way). You can't walk to the beach; they provide a shuttle (a 3-minute ride). The beach is clean, with plenty of sun loungers, and no waves, making it perfect for kids. The entertainment is excellent. There are games on the beach, and evening discos for kids, followed by adults. There's also a great kids' play area, and nearby tennis and billiards for adults (we'd leave our child and play ourselves).

Everything was good, but it was a bit boring. The beach closes at 6 PM, and the pool also undergoes chlorination after that. The breakfast, lunch, and dinner were masterpieces! The grounds are large and peaceful. In the evenings, it's really quiet and isolated; even their discos are completely empty.

I loved everything about this place. The front desk staff were incredibly attentive to our requests and provided a room that met all our preferences. The room was clean, and the daily housekeeping was excellent. The cleaners were quick, efficient, and always had a smile. The food selection was diverse, with a huge variety of dishes. There was even a separate serving station for kids with french fries, spaghetti, and sausages – no one would leave hungry! Oh, and the room even had a scale, just in case you overindulged a bit with all that delicious food. 😉 The beach is a truly beautiful spot by the sea. Nestled among the palm trees are two cafes. One constantly serves drinks for all-inclusive guests, while the other offers items for purchase. There are plenty of sun loungers on the beach, so everyone can find a spot. There's entertaining animation for children, including competitions, darts, and other creative activities led by the energetic animators. For adults, there's morning exercise, yoga, and volleyball. For an extra fee, you can go parasailing, ride a banana boat, and more. Photographers are also on hand, and for $100, you can get beautiful pictures of your trip. Plus, there's a shuttle service from the hotel to the beach, or you can borrow a bicycle for four hours free of charge. The beach itself is clean and constantly maintained. On the hotel grounds, kids can enjoy animation at the water slides and foam parties. For adults, there are great high slides and a swimming pool. In the evenings, we'd move closer to the stage to enjoy pleasant music and relax. Overall, I can confidently recommend this hotel.

The hotel is new, but 99% of the guests are package tourists. The food in the dining hall is really unappetizing, and yet there's a hefty surcharge for dinner and lunch. The cocktails, made with local alcohol, are very strong and hard to drink. The decor is very basic, even though it's new. On the plus side, there's the beach, the pool, and some entertainment. Overall, it's pretty much your typical Turkish all-inclusive.

The single family room is large and bright. + clean linens, comfortable beds. Good water pressure, no hot water issues. Beautiful view from the window. Large balcony. - This isn't a big deal for me, but it might be useful to someone else. The room is tired: dirty walls, torn curtains. There were two chairs on the balcony, but no table. In the living room, the sofa is right under the dripping air conditioner, so the sofa is constantly wet. Food. We only had breakfast (average, like everywhere else). We ordered from the restaurant on the beach; it was expensive and tasteless. We ordered delivery for lunch and dinner. It's much cheaper and more affordable. The water park is open 2 a.m. in the morning and 2 p.m. in the afternoon. Slide tubes are always available (never in short supply). The pool at the water park is a strange color, cloudy, probably dirty (from sand, etc.). Beach. A pleasant, green place surrounded by mountains, clean. During our stay, the waves weren't a hindrance to swimming, but during the day they brought a lot of trash. The shuttle bus to the beach is scheduled or runs as needed, so walking is inconvenient. The entertainment is uninteresting. During our stay, there were "hotel couple" competitions—absolutely awful. There's no life outside the hotel at all; there's nothing to do in the evening, not even a stroll through the park between the beach and the hotel. The bus to Nha Trang fills up quickly; there are almost never any seats.
