If you close your eyes for now, just count to 10, what do you hear?
Maybe it’s the familiar sounds of scooters weaving through traffic outside, the clink of coffee cups in crowded cafés, the never-ending buzz of notifications. It’s life in motion, loud and full.
Now shift the scene.
Imagine the sound of waves brushing against the shore, the distant laughter of friends gathered around a table, the soft rustle of palms in the breeze. You're holding a cocktail, skin still warm from the sun, and for the first time in a long while, your shoulders drop, your breath deepens.
It feels like you’ve stepped into someone’s seaside home. A place where the doors are always open, the view is always of the sea, and meals are shared slowly, joyfully. That’s the essence of a beach house.
And while most imagine such a house as a private retreat, there’s a new version of this dream, one that opens its doors wide to welcome you in. That’s Beach House, a restaurant and bar concept tucked within the Danang Marriott Resort & Spa, Non Nuoc Beach Villas.
So what's it like? Let’s step inside.
The Space
You're greeted by soaring floor-to-ceiling windows, stretching toward the ocean like they’re trying to bring the horizon closer.
During the day, the sunlight spills in, bouncing off the blue of the sea and the whitewashed interiors, giving the space a glow that feels endless. At night, the windows soften into mirrors, reflecting the golden light from within, creating the illusion of floating in a dream.
The design follows the rhythm of nature – simple, open, and unforced. Like the early coastal retreats in 18th-century Europe, where people came not for luxury, but for the sea air and a clear view, they were places to breathe, to reset. That quiet intention still lingers here.
Inside, the white stone, ocean green accents, and sand-colored linens don’t shout for attention – they simply echo the view outside.
Outdoors, the lounge area invites you to stay a while. Lounge chairs face the waves. A curved pool catches the sun. There’s a sense of flow here, from water to table, from day to dusk. Parents sip wine as their kids dive into the pool. A group of old friends toast over shared plates. It’s a living postcard, one you’re part of.
Unlike the ornate coastal homes of the past, this place isn’t hidden away. It’s meant for gathering, celebrating, for letting go, for being present.
The Flavors
The menu at Beach House is a love letter to Danang’s coastline.
Seafood comes straight from local fishermen’s boats, meaning what’s on your plate tonight might’ve been caught just hours earlier. Whether wok-tossed, grilled, or fried to your liking, it is prepared to highlight its fresh, natural flavors.
Alongside, the menu offers pasta, prime steaks, and tropical-inspired desserts, blending the best of both land and sea in every bite.
Sous Chef Hien Huynh, born and raised in Danang, brings a quiet confidence to the kitchen. After years working in Saigon and abroad, he came home to cook with heart. He’s served guests from every corner of the world – some asking for Halal, others for Korean or Indian twists – and he adapts, not by changing the soul of a dish, but by listening.
Want your snapper steamed instead of grilled? Prefer your shrimp extra spicy or with tamarind glaze? The chefs welcome it. Dining here feels less like ordering from a menu and more like having a conversation.
And if you’re curious about how your dish is made, just look toward the open kitchen. Watch flames leap, knives dance, and chefs bring flavors to life in real time.
The Experience
What makes this Beach House special goes beyond its view or its menu, it’s how you’re made to feel.
It’s the kind of place where couples ease into quiet conversation as the waves roll in. Where friends linger over cocktails that somehow taste better by the sea. Where families settle in naturally, without needing to settle down.
If you go with your kids, the little ones are welcomed with their own mini activity book, a simple gesture that shows the space was created with them in mind. Meanwhile, parents exhale over a crisp glass of rosé, shoulders relaxing as the first bites arrive.
It’s not quite home – it’s a home away from home, where everything feels just a little more alive.
And just as conversation starts to soften and the sky begins to shift, a wooden trolley appears. Rolling slowly through the room, it carries Vietnamese craft gins and citrus garnishes – a quiet invitation to pause and play. The bartender offers a quick story, a garnish suggestion, and a smile. It’s a ritual that marks the evening’s rhythm: slow down, savor, begin again.
Throughout the night, that same gentle care continues. A note on how the dish was made. A glance to refill your glass before you ask. Chefs might drop by your table to chat about the morning’s catch or ask how your kids liked the fish. It’s not about formality – it’s about presence. And that presence lingers long after the plates are cleared.
To make the most of this spirit, Beach House will launch two new signature dining events:
- Brunch by the Beach on the first Sunday of every month: A family-friendly affair with live cooking stations, relaxed music, and endless views.
- Taste of Local launching April 30 and happening every Wednesday: A beachfront BBQ spotlighting Vietnamese flavors, cooked over open flames as the sun dips below the sea.
The Feelings
In the end, experiences bring feelings. So one more time, close your eyes and picture that sense of lightness, of belonging, of time that stretches out and slows down.
As the sky fades to indigo, a soft flame flickers atop each table, nestled in a vase of sand – like a quiet lighthouse guiding everyone back to the joy of simply being here.
At Beach House - Danang Marriott Non Nuoc Beach Villas, that feeling is served daily. Whether you're toasting a birthday, gathering with loved ones, or simply chasing that elusive sense of calm, this is a place that lets you unwind in your way and reminds you of how good life can taste when you're by the sea.
So what are you and your loved ones doing in the upcoming holiday?
