Alma Resort Cam Ranh has been named among the five best resorts in Southeast Asia in the recently announced Travel + Leisure World's Best Awards 2026.
The results of the 2026 World’s Best Awards were unveiled on July 7. Now in their 31st year, the awards invite Travel + Leisure readers to rate their favourite travel experiences around the world, spanning hotels, resorts, cities, islands, cruise lines, airlines and more. More than 207,000 readers participated in the 2026 survey, casting over 661,000 votes across more than 10,000 travel properties and experiences. Travel + Leisure described exceptional service that turns curious travellers into returning guests as a defining quality shared by this year’s winners.
Mr. Herbert Laubichler-Pichler, Managing Director of Alma Resort Cam Ranh and two-time "Vietnam's Best General Manager" (Travel + Leisure Luxury Awards Asia Pacific, 2024 & 2026), shared: "Being named among Southeast Asia's top five resorts, and one of only two in Vietnam to make this year's list, is a proud moment for our team. It also reflects the growing strength of Vietnam's hospitality sector on the world stage. It's a recognition we're proud to build on, welcoming families to a holiday home shaped by the warmth and authenticity of Vietnamese hospitality."
Alma’s inclusion among Southeast Asia’s leading resorts underscores the continued appeal of its bold and spacious integrated resort model. Conceived as a destination where several generations can holiday together, Alma combines the breadth of a self-contained resort with experiences that allow families to reconnect, while giving guests the freedom to shape their stays around their own interests.
The result also reflects the increasing international recognition of Cam Ranh as a resort destination and Vietnam’s growing ability to deliver hospitality experiences that resonate with travellers from around the world.
The accolade follows Alma’s strong performance in the 2024 World’s Best Awards, when the resort was voted the top resort in Southeast Asia, the No. 2 resort in Asia and the No. 9 resort worldwide, achieving a reader score of 99.2.
