This Eid-Al-Fitr, delve into the unknown with Avani Hotels & Resorts. From getting acquainted with the rugged, raw beauty of Laos or learning about Sri Lanka’s rich and varied history to uncovering the lesser known land of Quy Nhon, Vietnam, Avani Hotels & Resorts invites travellers to venture beyond the ordinary and explore these emerging destinations.

Avani+ Luang Prabang, Laos
Home to unexplored caves and rare wildlife, Laos offers a unique taste of South East Asia. Once the royal capital of the kingdom of Laos, Luang Prabang is a Unesco World Heritage site, described as the 'Jewel in the Laos Crown' thanks to its untouched, natural beauty. Most of the city can be explored on foot; the perfect way to take in the temples, monk monasteries and waterfalls.

For millennial-minded travellers, the recently launched Avani+ Luang Prabang offers everything – and more. Ideally located in central Luang Prabang, just a few steps from the Mekong River, Royal Palace, and the popular Night Market, Avani+ Luang Prabang is set to become the hottest property in town. It raises the bar on the contemporary French neo-classical architecture that runs through the historical neighbourhood, with elegant, French colonial-inspired interior design. The 53 guest rooms and suites enjoy an intimate, open-plan feel with French-styled louvred wooden doors that open onto a balcony or terrace overlooking either the pool or a private courtyard.

Avani Kalutara Resort, Sri Lanka
Amidst beautiful white beaches, authentic Sri Lankan culture and tranquil colonial charm, south of Colombo lies the bustling coastal stretch of Kalutara.

Paddle through the tranquil waters to discover the old canal, spice plantations and explore the lesser known monumental historic site of Richmond Castle which encapsulates four distinct styles of architecture.

Escape to Avani Kalutara Resort, Sri Lanka where the Kalu Ganga River meets the Indian Ocean. Ease into evenings with sunset cocktails and feast on local specialties by the sea. Just an hour and half drive from the international airport, Avani Kalutara Resort ticks the boxes for fun, romance and adventure.

Avani Quy Nhon Resort & Spa, Vietnam
One of Vietnam’s lesser explored cities is the blissful coastal town of Quy Nhon. Staying under wraps until recently, Quy Nhon is only starting to make it onto the radar of tourists, meaning it is still quiet and unspoiled. With fishing being the main local trade, this is the perfect spot for seafood lovers. With interesting architecture and beautiful pagodas, it’s also great for culture vultures.

Unwind and explore this vibrant coastal city in South Central Vietnam while staying at Avani Quy Nhon which offers private balconies with unparalleled sea views from every room or suite. Adding to the coastal allures, guests can reach the resort’s private island by kayak or have a local fisherman ferry them across, and then enjoy a day of swimming, snorkelling, fishing, sunbathing and picnicking. Contemporary style is brought to life throughout the resort by hints of Vietnamese culture and Champa Kingdom heritage, including in the 63 guest rooms and suites. All rooms and suites can sleep two adults and two children or three adults with an extra bed, and the option of adjoining rooms and suites caters comfortably for families and friends. Quy Nhon Airport is a 50-minute drive away, with daily flights operating from both Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi. Guests can also catch daily trains from Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang.

Offer: Plan and book 21 days in advance to save up to 10 per cent of rates along with daily complimentary breakfast with Avani's Advance Purchase Offer.
