Entertainment and animation
1 of 5
People come here not for entertainment, but for relaxation, silence, beach holiday and walks.
Sunbathing and taking air baths are good in the relaxation area by the pool, equipped with umbrellas and sun loungers, and on the beach. There is a special section in the pool for children - kids splash around there with pleasure, especially when there are waves at sea.

Beach
1 of 5
The resort has its own sand beach, spacious and uncrowded - only guests sunbathe and swim there.
There are no sun loungers or umbrellas in the beach area. Coniferous trees grow around.
The entrance to the water is gentle, quite comfortable for children. But the sea is often choppy, it is better to swim in the morning. Complete calm is rare; in the afternoon the sea is slightly stormy, great entertainment for those who like to jump in the waves.
There are a lot of shells, snails, and starfish on the shore - you can study the underwater fauna. It happens that waves carry out garbage after high tide, but the staff quickly clean everything up. The water is clean, not very transparent due to the sandy suspension.
On weekends, local sellers appear on the beach, selling souvenirs, T-shirts, bags, and pearls.
Location and surroundings
From 4 to 5 hours - this is how long it will take to get from Cam Ranh Airport in Nha Trang to the hotel, which is located near Phan Thiet (8 km away).
A resort is a sort of comfortable island on the coast, surrounded by forest, at a distance from resort centers. Lovers of “civilization” in the form of shops, cafes, and restaurants should think twice before choosing this place for a vacation.
But romantics, couples in love and hermits by nature will find it very good here. You can relax without leaving the territory. The walk will not be too tiring for those who decide to walk to the nearest cafes and shopping stalls. It’s a leisurely 15-20 minute walk to these establishments. There is also a pharmacy, souvenir shops, and they sell fruits and vegetables.
You can be driven to the massage parlor and brought back after the session. Some cafes also provide transport services - as agreed. They also organize food delivery.
Three times a week, vacationers are taken to a shopping center, given time to shop, exchange money, and taken back to the hotel.
Not all tourists are satisfied with a beach holiday. You can explore local attractions by booking an excursion from a tour operator or local guides. Some people prefer to travel on their own, by bus, taxi or bike.
It is interesting to visit the Red Canyon, the ancient Cham towers, the Magic Spring mineral waters, Sand sculpture park, fish market, where you can see and buy marlin, tuna, barracuda and other exotics.
Haven't been on vacation yet in 2020? Why not spend it in a picturesque place, on the coast of a warm, gentle sea? If your budget is limited, choose a 3-star resort - everything you need for a vacation is there.

The situation with this board is approximately the same as with SkyStar 1. In reality, a card with this name does not exist; it arose on forums and denotes a whole family of cards released after SkyStar 2 by different manufacturers, but, as a rule, this refers to the products of the German TechnoTrend company.
It should be noted that in 80% of cases this name is used in relation to the TT-budget S1401 DVB tuner - the most famous of the budget line of tuners for receiving satellite signals from TechnoTrend. This card became a direct competitor to SkyStar 2.
The origin of the name SkyStar 2 can be explained as follows: the first batches of TT-budget S1401 DVB cards were imported to Russia through the TechniSat company, which subsequently refused to distribute this product and focused on promoting its own development - SkyStar 2. However, the SkyStar trademark is widely known in Russia inherited the budget TechnoTrend card, just like the TT PCline Premium card, and is today known as the SkyStar 1.
Let's take a closer look at the TT-budget S1401 card (Fig. 3.16).
Rice. 3.16. DVB tuner TT-budget S1401
Externally, the tuner is not much different from its predecessor and competitor SkyStar 2 – there are slightly fewer parts on the board and a different sticker with the manufacturer’s logo. The functionality of the TT-budget S1401 is different. For example, TT-budget S1401 can handle data streams up to 72 Mbit/s, while SkyStar 2 has a maximum throughput of 45 Mbit/s. As you can see, the development potential of the TT-budget S1401 is somewhat greater.
However, in software, the TT-budget S1401 loses to its more mature competitor. This is precisely the argument that supporters of the SkyStar 2 card usually make. Perhaps, immediately after the release of SkyStar 3, these statements were completely true, but now, more than two years after the start of sales, the situation has changed a lot. Almost all programs for working with satellite television have learned to work correctly with this tuner, and many additional software libraries have appeared that expand the capabilities of the card. The tuner comes with simple and intuitive software, which greatly simplifies its installation and configuration.
The card does not have an interface for connecting a CI module (the module into which cards are inserted that allow you to view paid channels), but it allows you to pass the entire data stream directly to the computer. Therefore, you can do whatever you want with it.
Among other cards included in the SkyStar 3 family, the following can be noted: TT-budget S1500, TT-budget S1400, TT-budget S1100, TT-budget S. All these DVB tuners are produced by TechnoTrend, but are quite rare in the CIS countries , so we will not dwell on them in more detail.
Thus, if you need a card with extensive capabilities for little money, then SkyStar 3 will be good choice. Using a special software you can get the most out of it.
Resort for relaxation family vacation. There is little entertainment for young people. With small children, the journey becomes too tiring.
The Moscow-Ho Chi Minh City flight takes about 10 hours. The transfer will take approximately 4-5 hours.
Tours to Phan Thiet are slightly cheaper than to Nha Trang.
The beaches in Phan Thiet are covered with fine sand.
It is worth taking a sightseeing tour of Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), the city of Dalat, seeing the lotus lake, riding “ice boats” from colorful dunes, and visiting coffee plantations. Be sure to take a photo of the Reclining Buddha statue (the largest Buddha figure in Vietnam).
There are floating markets where you can buy fruits and vegetables, inexpensive, high-quality clothing, and world-famous Chon coffee. There is a large supermarket COOP Mart.
Mostly tourists choose hotels with 3 and 4 stars. Their service is of a higher level than similar European ones. Hotels are located right on the shore.
Hotels usually offer only breakfast, half board is also available, there is practically no all-inclusive system.
Russian-speaking staff is found, but very rarely. Used for communication English language. There is no animation in the hotels.
On the beach, umbrellas and sun loungers are free in almost all hotels.
The “dry season” lasts from November to April, but there are often high waves. Best time for surfing - from August to December. From May to October is the “wet season”, during which the waves are much smaller.

Our dacha).I vacationed with a friend in April 2017. A trip for two cost 22 thousand per person. Before the trip I tried to find reviews, but to no avail, so I’ll try to explain what kind of hotel this is. It is located about 7 km from the city of Phan Thiet, so we were the last to be picked up from the airport, because... First we brought tourists to Mui Ne, then Phan Thiet, then us. Due to the transport of tourists, the road took about 4.5 hours from Cam Ranh Airport to Nha Trang. The hotel is located on the first coastline, has a large green area, there is a main three-story building and several bungalow houses. There is a swimming pool with a section for children. Sunbeds and umbrellas are located by the pool, there are no sunbeds on the beach. We were placed on the second floor, which we were later we are very happy, because became the owners of a huge balcony, where at any time they could sit with a cup of coffee overlooking the sea. Those living on the first floor did not have balconies; the sea was blocked by palm trees and a fence along which pine trees grow. All rooms in the building face the sea, so those living on The second and third floors offer beautiful views of the sea and Phan Thiet city. The numbers themselves have large area in On our voucher it was ron, but in reality it turned out to be either superior or deluxe. There were two large rooms! beds, a wardrobe, shelves for shoes and suitcases, a safe, a large table with tea accessories - an electric kettle, mugs with spoons, glasses, a bag of tea, coffee and sugar every day, a flat-screen TV without Russian channels, more bedside tables with different compartments, which we found a hairdryer), a refrigerator. Between the beds there is also a bedside table with a telephone. The bathroom contains the bath itself, a shower cabin, a toilet, a washbasin. There is a lot of space in the bathroom, the shower cabin is cool, it is made so that nothing leaks anywhere. shampoo and shower gel, a small piece of soap, a toothbrush with disposable toothpaste, ear sticks, a shower cap, a comb. A bar of soap and a comb were given one for two), but we did not require more, because... we had enough).For breakfast there was a buffet, I won’t say that there was an abundance, but everyone ate their fill. Scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs with bacon or vegetables, rice, Vietnamese noodles with vegetables, Sometimes bacon, sometimes Vietnamese dumplings, some other local things, cucumbers , tomatoes, salad, tea, coffee, two types of sweet cake, two types of cereal, jams, fruits - watermelons and pineapples every day, rambutan or bananas were added to them. Well, it’s a sin to complain about breakfast. Yes, I forgot - water and juice, milk, toast, butter. Maybe I missed something else, because... I remember people were eating soup). The hotel itself is located separately, there are no shops with fruit, tea and coffee nearby. There are built and abandoned hotels, I don’t know why. But at 12 o’clock there is a free shuttle to the Phan Thiet shopping center, i.e. We all go together in a comfortable minibus to the shopping center, where we are waiting for two hours. mall you can buy food, beer, coffee, etc. On the other floor - shoes, T-shirts, shirts. You can ask the driver to take you to the market instead of the shopping center, you can buy mangoes or other fruits along the way, it all depends on you, how you will agree with him, for example, to buy cigarettes or take you somewhere instead of a taxi. In addition to the free transfer provided by the hotel, there is the opportunity to go for a massage. At the reception there is a business card of a massage parlor, it is run by Phan and his wife. These are Russian-speaking Vietnamese, they once lived and worked in Russia, for a massage they will pick you up and take you back to the hotel for free, This is on the other side of the hotel, there are several cafes where you can have dinner after the massage and several retail shops where they sell alcohol, fruits, coffee, rags) , suitcases, ointments and cigarettes, etc. You can walk from the hotel to there in about fifteen minutes along the road, but if you have the opportunity to get there comfortably, then why not take advantage) By the way, the massage at Fan’s is great, they are done by hired girls. We are on We went for a massage on the last day and regretted it, they really do it conscientiously, it costs 150 thousand VND. Before that, I had a massage in Thailand, in Nha Trang, I wasn’t impressed, so I went on the last day, like to try. If I had known, I would have gone every day. Through Fan you can find a guide who will take you personally by car wherever you want. A guided tour, you won’t have to collect anyone from hotels and the price tag is much lower. Boys on Russian receptionist they don’t know the language, we communicated with them through a translator on the phone - no problems) You can swim in the pool all night) and sit near the pool). You can also have dinner at the hotel, the food is good. Summary - the hotel is located away from busy areas, so it’s not a good place to relax party, this is for those who love relaxation, the sound of the sea, silence, By the way, the sea greeted us with waves, but every morning we swam. There was complete calm for two days, then calm in the morning by lunchtime waves, in the evening just jumping. So see for yourself, how to relax there with children, on our visit the children did not climb out of the pool. The sea itself is turquoise in the calm, but mostly green, but I have never seen such an abundance of shells anywhere, and there sea stars and hermit crabs and snails. There are few vacationers in the hotel, apparently the hotel is going through difficult times - I don’t know, but the territory is all green, well-groomed, fish swim near the reception, small fountains. Our roommates, having suffered from excursions, affectionately called the hotel our dacha. We left the hotel at 16.50. We were worried about this, but as it turned out, it was in vain, no one checked us out at 12.00, we lived to the end without additional payments, suitcases were brought to the reception by electric car, no one checked our room after us. Many were checked by the guide. In the end I persuaded them to go on an excursion to Da Lat with an arrival and an overnight stay in Nha Trang, like getting from there to the airport was closer, but people firstly were tired of the excursion, it was a very difficult road, secondly they were unhappy with the rooms where they were put up, and thirdly they were taken out of the hotel They moved out at 12.00 and they toiled for eight hours restlessly under the scorching sun. P.S.. The room also has flip-flops, I also forgot that they give two bottles of water, 320 ml each, we then added boiled water to it. Maybe I missed something, ask, I’ll answer. To be honest, there aren’t enough photos, I didn’t think that I would write a review.
