NESTLED ALONG CENTRAL VIETNAM’S stunning coastline, InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort is amongst the region’s most beloved and recognised resorts. Beyond offering deeply luxurious escapes, the resort is the ideal gateway to Hoi An’s Ancient Town, where guests discover enchanting neighbourhoods, picturesque architecture, artisanal crafts, and romantic, lantern-lit boat rides.
The Bill Bensley-designed property elevates the guest experience through immersive cultural programming, including curated design tours that showcase the resort’s architectural brilliance.
The resort is also a foodie’s paradise, with a team of culinary creatives putting their talent and passion into introducing guests to bold flavours and gastronomic adventures in a sophisticated sanctuary.
“Guests staying at resorts are extremely interested in dining — it’s a big focus when you’re on vacation — so we are trying to push boundaries even further to create truly unparalleled experiences. It’s a never-ending goal and we hope people will come to try. We look forward to showcasing our exciting new menus to all discerning diners in the coming weeks and months,” said Seif Hamdy, General Manager, InterContinental Danang.
Central Vietnam’s Only Michelin Star
InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort’s La Maison 1888 achieved a historic milestone in June, becoming Central Vietnam’s first and only Michelin-starred restaurant.
This prestigious recognition was part of an extraordinary year of culinary evolution, transforming the resort into a gastronomic destination as well as an acclaimed beachfront getaway.
The arrival of legendary French chef Christian Le Squer in mid-2024 marked another significant milestone. Bringing 22 consecutive years of three-Michelin-star excellence from Paris — as well as his 2023 global “Chef of the Year” accolade, Chef Le Squer infuses La Maison 1888 with his distinctive Champs Elysees-inspired sophistication. His innovative approach to haute cuisine blends culinary mastery with stylish presentations, creating immersive dining experiences that captivate guests.
Chef Le Squer creates side-by-side with Chef de Cuisine Florian Stein, whose expertise was honed at France’s celebrated Le Chambard. These chefs’ prestigious backgrounds and culinary knowledge have elevated La Maison 1888 to unprecedented heights, establishing it as one of Asia-Pacific’s must-visit dining destinations.

The Switzerland native has elevated the renowned brunch buffet to new heights and is introducing innovative family-style dining concepts at Citron, the resort’s Vietnamese dining venue.
Adding to this culinary constellation, the resort also introduced Tingara, a distinctive Japanese dining experience whose name poetically translates to “River of Stars.” Led by Michelin-starred Chef Junichi Yoshida, this new restaurant combines premium Japanese ingredients with local herbs to create unprecedented teppanyaki and sushi dishes. Of course, no evening at Tingara is complete without trying a few of the restaurant’s imaginative sake and champagne pairings.
