The Anam Cam Ranh’s chefs incorporate fresh, organic ingredients from the resort’s farm - such as morning glory, malabar spinach, corn, mustard green, wild betel leaves, and chicken and duck eggs - in meals served to Lang Viet Restaurant & Bar’s diners as well as at the staff kitchen.
The budding farm’s variety of vegetables also include lettuce, cucumber, green onion, and cassava root. Custard apple, papaya, banana, mango, gac fruit and bitter melon are among the farm’s fruits. Herbs grown include basil, coriander, thyme, mint, imperata cylindrica, and plantago asiatica.
In addition to ducks and chickens, the farm is home to an abundance of geese, rabbits, goats, guinea fowls, turkeys and peacocks and their offspring.
The Anam Group general manager Laurent Myter urged young guests and their parents to visit the farm as part of a supervised program to learn more about sustainable farming and to interact with the friendly animals.
“Our team is genuinely keen to do its bit to educate youngsters about the need to tread lightly on the Earth, albeit in a fun and engaging way,” he said.
“Kids get a taste of life on a sustainable farm, rummaging around our greenery and patting the animals such as the baby goats.”
Program participants learn tips about how to grow their own chemical-free herbs, veggies and fruits at home, and how to look after chickens and ducks and their eggs.
The Anam Cam Ranh has implemented a host of measures in a bid to lessen its carbon footprint. The resort’s water filtration plant supplies water for 240 recycled glass bottles per day, thus eliminating the use of an estimated 87600 single-use plastic water bottles annually.
The resort’s ban of single-use plastics has resulted in the implementation of rice flour straws, bamboo bags, and bamboo bathroom amenities.
The resort recycles laundry water to maintain its lush gardens, uses solar power and its team conducts regular beach clean-ups. The resort’s eco-friendly key cards that guests use to access their rooms, suites and villas are made from wood sourced from sustainably managed forests.
About The Anam Group
After the auspicious debut of The Anam Cam Ranh in 2017, the independently owned and operated The Anam Group celebrated the grand opening of its second property, The Anam Mui Ne, in January 2023.
With “Indochine Charm” and “Modern Luxury” as its watchwords, the group blends colonial-era aesthetics and attentive Vietnamese service with modern comforts and convenience. “The Anam” today is a reference to another name, “An Nam”, which was the name of Central Vietnam during the French Indochina era.
The Anam Cam Ranh overlooks 300 metres of beachfront on Vietnam’s scenic Cam Ranh peninsula, which averages more than 300 sunny days per year. The luxurious five-star resort boasts 77 villas and 136 rooms and suites. The Anam Cam Ranh features a French-inspired fine dining restaurant, all-day dining restaurant, a Vietnamese restaurant and bar, a classical bar, a beach club, in-room dining, a 10 treatment-room spa, indoor and outdoor movie theatres, three capacious swimming pools, ballroom, conference rooms, recreation and fitness centre, a tennis court, yoga room and deck, kids club, putting green, gift shop and more.
Like its predecessor The Anam Cam Ranh, The Anam Mui Ne’s design is also an echo out of Vietnam’s Indochine era. Situated in southern Vietnam’s popular beach town Mui Ne, the 1.2 hectare beachfront resort affords spectacular ocean vistas and features 127 elegant rooms and suites, including seven 142sqm suites with private pools and a 122sqm presidential suite with an extra room for the bodyguards. Its dining landscape comprises an all-day dining restaurant and grill, beachside restaurant and bar, and lobby bar. A five-treatment room spa, two vast swimming pools, a ballroom, conference rooms, water sports center, fitness center, yoga room, kid’s club and gift shop are among the resort’s host of world-class facilities.
