You can cycle through rice paddies, take a cooking class, or catch a boat along the Thu Bon River. Resorts in Hoi An cluster along An Bang and Cua Dai beaches, giving you a quieter coastal base while the Ancient Town remains easy to reach.

Love how simple it is to compare flights with us? The same clever search engine has a talent for hunting down deals on rooms and resorts too. Follow these tips to find the right stay at the right price.
Book in advance
Book in advance if possible. Getting things locked in sooner usually means cheaper prices and a greater range of resorts, especially during busy travel seasons.
...Or bag a last-minute Hoi An resort deal
Things usually get more expensive closer to your stay. But in low season, late bargains can still pop up when resorts have vacant rooms to fill.
Flexible on dates? Say hello to better rates
Cheap resorts in Hoi An can be easier to find if you're not tied to specific dates. Experiment with different seasons or months, or go midweek instead of weekends to keep costs down.
Go all-inclusive
All-inclusive resorts in Hoi An can be a wise money move if you want to spend most of your stay in one place. With meals, activities and drinks covered by the room rate, they can offer better value than paying for things as you go. Confirm stays like this are available before you book.
Show discounted resorts only

When to visit Hoi An
High and low season in Hoi An
February through April tends to be the sweet spot for visiting Hoi An. The weather is dry and comfortable, and the old town is easy to explore on foot or by bicycle. Demand picks up noticeably during this period, especially around late January if Lunar New Year falls within your travel window, so booking accommodation early gives you more options and better rates.
The rainy season, roughly from October into November, brings a higher chance of flooding in Hoi An's low-lying old town, which can limit access to some areas. Visitor numbers drop during this time, accommodation tends to be more affordable, and the streets feel noticeably quieter. It's a reasonable trade-off if you're flexible and fine with unpredictable conditions.
Hoi An's Full Moon Lantern Festival is one of the most recognised local traditions, taking place each month when vehicles are restricted from the old town and lanterns light up the streets and Thu Bon River. For current event schedules, local festivals, or community activities during your visit, the official Hoi An tourism website and your accommodation are good places to start.
