Mindana Apartment is on Cao Ba Quat Street on the east bank of the Han River, only a few hundred metres from Dragon Bridge and Love Bridge. It is a convenient base for the riverfront at night, My Khe Beach, Son Tra Peninsula and day trips to Hoi An.
The main beach near Mindana, known for soft sand, a gentle slope and plenty of cafés and seafood restaurants along Vo Nguyen Giap. Beach access is free; chairs, umbrellas and drinks are available for rent.
A quieter curved bay at the foot of Son Tra with clear water and more greenery than the central beach area. Some sections have stronger waves and submerged rocks.
A signature spiritual landmark with a 67-metre Lady Buddha statue and panoramic views over Da Nang. Entry to the grounds is generally free; donations are welcome.
A café, restaurant and marina area at Ho Xanh known for white walls, blue doors, bougainvillea and bay views. Reference opening hours are around 07:00–21:00/22:00.
Walk to Love Bridge, dine by the marina or take a cruise for views of Dragon Bridge, Han River Bridge and Tran Thi Ly Bridge. Reference cruise prices in the guide are about VND 120,000–400,000 per person.
A late-afternoon-to-evening trip works well: explore heritage buildings and the Japanese Covered Bridge before dark, then enjoy lantern streets and boats on the Hoai River after 18:00. The guide lists an adult heritage-ticket reference of about VND 120,000.
A 45–60 minute basket-boat experience through the nipa-palm forest in Cam Thanh. Easy to combine with Hoi An on the same day.
A theme park with water attractions, thrill rides, themed zones and shows — ideal for families or groups wanting one full day of concentrated entertainment.
A high-altitude attraction above 1,400 m featuring the Golden Bridge, French Village, gardens and Fantasy Park. The guide gives a 2026 adult-ticket reference of roughly VND 900,000–1,000,000 before buffet.
Hot mineral baths, onsen pools, water-park facilities and a mountain setting — a good option for a relaxed day rather than a packed sightseeing schedule.
The international nightlife area around Tran Bach Dang and Vo Nguyen Giap, with bars, rooftops, Asian/Western restaurants and live music.
A beachfront restaurant, bar and club: pool and daybeds by day, sunset DJs in the late afternoon, then Deep House/Afro House and outdoor parties at night.
A nearby fine-dining and cabaret concept with red-velvet interiors, a small stage, live music and dance performances. The guide gives a dinner-set reference of about VND 1.45–1.85 million++ per person.
For a local Da Nang rhythm: Mi Quang in the morning, banh xeo in the afternoon and fresh seafood for dinner. Check displayed prices before ordering large seafood sets.

Mũi Nghê is not an official tourist attraction. The route involves a long, steep forest trail, slippery rocks and strong waves. The source guide notes a serious wave accident in August 2026 and advises Mindana guests not to trek there independently. Safer Son Tra viewpoints include Linh Ung, the north/south beaches, Son Tra Marina or an authorised boat trip offshore.
Ticket prices, opening hours and show schedules can change seasonally. Please confirm with Mindana reception or the attraction’s official website before travelling.
