Azerai Ke Ga Bay, the all-suites-and-villas oceanfront resort in southern Vietnam, has been selected as the “Best Boutique Resort of the Year” for 2025 at the Gourmet Vietnam Awards presented by Epicure magazine.
“We are truly honored by this award from Epicure, one of Vietnam’s premier lifestyle and culinary magazines. It is a testament to our team’s passion for delivering warm, personalized service in our serene coastal oasis,” Azerai Ke Ga Bay General Manager Julian Moore said.
The annual awards from Epicure Vietnam spotlight outstanding achievements across the country’s dynamic gastronomy and hospitality sectors.
The honor caps a remarkable year for Azerai Ke Ga Bay, which won a prestigious MICHELIN Key in the inaugural edition of the MICHELIN Guide in Vietnam in October. The Times of London also named Azerai Ke Ga Bay one of Southeast Asia’s best boutique hotels in 2025.
Located a comfortable 2.5-hour drive from Ho Chi Minh City on a new highway, Azerai Ke Ga Bay is nestled amongst 5 hectares of verdant gardens, framed to the east by Hon Ba Island with its historic lighthouse and to the west by soaring sand dunes.
Earlier this year, Azerai Ke Ga Bay was also voted the world’s second “Most Instagrammable Hotel” overall and the winner of the “Most Instagrammable Hotel in Asia, the Indian Ocean and South Pacific” in a contest sponsored by the U.S. publication Luxury Travel Advisor.
Azerai Ke Ga Bay recently unveiled complimentary outdoor yoga sessions amidst the natural backdrop and gentle breezes of the sea, along with new golf packages at the world-class PGA NovaWorld Phan Thiet Golf Course, designed by Greg Norman.
Azerai Ke Ga Bay is part of legendary hotelier Adrian Zecha’s boutique portfolio of Azerai properties, which also includes Azerai La Residence, Hue in historic central Vietnam. Zecha is one of the world’s leading creators and operators of award-winning luxury hotels and resorts. He previously founded the storied luxury brand Aman Resorts in 1988.
