iSea Boutique Resort / Pham Huu Son Architects

Text description provided by the architect. iSea Boutique Resort – A harmonious union of nature and modern architecture. iSea is a resort located on the coastline with a vast expanse of white sandy beach surrounded by the stunning natural beauty of Van Phong Bay in central Vietnam. The hotel has 8 accommodation units, with functional areas such as bars, restaurants, spas and children’s play areas next to it, where visitors can embrace the tranquil sea and revel in the magnificent natural beauty.

To create an engaging experience, iSea’s 8 bedrooms have been carefully designed to offer stunning views of the beach. The leisure area, including the bar, is arranged around the central pool, forming a unique circular architectural structure.

Using eco-friendly, no-fire brick materials is not only a smart choice but also creates a strong connection with the local community. With natural beauty as a highlight, iSea Resort is decorated in a rustic style with a harmonious mix of natural white lime on the exterior and interior, complemented by well-preserved concrete ceilings. This intentionally unfinished design creates an intimate and welcoming space for guests.

The harmony between architecture and nature is vividly depicted through large glass panels, which not only expand the space but also give a sense of the sea, sky and sea being integrated into one. Every architectural detail has been carefully selected to ensure that iSea is not just a resort but a vibrant work of art that blends seamlessly into the surrounding natural beauty.
