Your Hot Spring Sanctuary Awaits

Located about 30 km northwest of Huế, Alba Wellness Valley by Fusion is built around the therapeutic mineral springs of Thanh Tân and offers a balanced blend of relaxation, movement and nature immersion. Set amid the forested foothills of the Trường Sơn Mountains, this is the ideal destination for wellness-seeking travellers who want depth, nature and renewal in Vietnam.

The resort’s on-site hot-spring water has a therapeutic mineral composition comparable to European thermal waters, creating a foundation for authentic healing experiences rooted in nature’s own restorative power.
