French Architectural Heritage in the Heart of Da Lat – A Timeless Touch at Ana Mandara Villas Dalat Resort & Spa

Quietly Listening to Da Lat Whisper Through Each Ancient Wall

Amidst the Central Highlands’ mountains and the lingering morning mist, Da Lat possesses a captivating classical beauty. And on a peaceful hill nestled in the heart of the city, Ana Mandara Villas Dalat Resort & Spa emerges like a vividly re-painted vintage picture – a confluence of history, architecture, and the art of living.

Heritage Resort with a French Soul Amidst Pine Forests

Built in the early 20th century, the 17 ancient villas at Ana Mandara were once the retreats of the French elite. Today, each villa is preserved in its original state: from the fish-scale tiled roofs and European-style fireplaces to the wooden staircases and arched windows that open to the breezy sky. This is the only place in Da Lat where you can experience classic French architecture without excessive modernization.

Each villa bears its own name, such as Villas of Architects, Biologists, Agronomists, …, each with stories and historical imprints linked to the French commissioners, doctors, and merchants who once lived here. The interior is kept almost original, from the classic floor tiles to the fireplace systems and intricately carved wooden furniture, allowing guests to relive the atmosphere of the 1920s.

The Imprint of Old French Architecture – An Unmistakable Characteristic

The old French architectural style at Ana Mandara is a delicate blend of two flows: Colonial architecture – deeply imbued with the colonial imprint through its sturdy columns, high arched doorways, and distinctive red-tiled roofs – and Art Deco – with its geometric details, soft lines, and minimalist yet elegant decoration.

A noticeable feature in the villas is the use of local materials in a Western construction style: thick insulated walls, large light-filled windows, and spacious verandas to welcome the breeze. The interior space always aims for comfort without losing its warmth and connection to nature.

Furthermore, details such as carved wooden handrails, fireplaces placed in the center of the living rooms, high ceilings creating a sense of airiness, and white-painted brick walls combined with deep brown wood tones all reflect the talent of the French architects of that era in adapting and creating in the Indochina region.

Experiencing Slow Living in a Truly Artistic Space

More than just a place to rest, Ana Mandara is also a destination for art and inspiration. Outdoor afternoon tea, candle-making workshops, manual printing classes, or acoustic concerts amidst the lush green garden – all guide guests on a journey of slow living, deep feeling, and understanding the value of each moment.

In addition to regular art activities, the resort also organizes painting exhibitions, showcasing the works of local artists, creating a small creative community. Staying guests can participate in morning meditation sessions in the pine forest or yoga classes in the flower garden to regenerate energy and connect more deeply with nature.

Sustainability from the Heart – When Preservation and Comfort Go Hand in Hand

Ana Mandara’s unique point is its ability to skillfully combine the preservation of old architecture with modern amenities. The resort prioritizes natural materials, minimizes energy use, and maximizes natural light. Therefore, Ana Mandara is one of the leading environmentally friendly resorts in Vietnam, meeting today’s sustainable tourism trends.

Programs for waste sorting, using bamboo straws, reducing single-use plastic, planting native trees, and building a natural water filtration system are part of the commitment to sustainable development. The organic garden within the resort also provides ingredients for the restaurant, allowing diners to enjoy healthy, fresh dishes in the true “from farm to table” spirit.

An Ideal Stop for a Romantic Getaway

The peaceful atmosphere, private villas, warm water swimming pool, spa services, and 5-star standard restaurant make Ana Mandara a top choice for couples, families, or those seeking a romantic vacation in Da Lat.

The rooms at Ana Mandara are not uniformly designed; each room is a unique space with its own colors, materials, and style. In particular, the resort offers private dinner arrangements, outdoor marriage proposals, and picnics in the pine forest – all creating romantic and memorable experiences for important milestones.
