Where is Diamond Bay and how long is the ride from CXR?
Diamond Bay is outside the centre, on Nguyen Tat Thanh Boulevard rather than on the Tran Phu beachfront, on the coast road between Cam Ranh airport and the city. Budget 30 to 45 minutes from the airport; the resort itself says about 20.
Will we be stuck at the resort?
Not if you plan for it. The resort has a private beach, pools and its own restaurants, and 342 rooms in a building and bungalows by the hotel’s own count. The city centre is about 10 km away, and the resort runs a free shuttle each day to Gold Coast Mall. Evenings in town are easier with a car, and we can take you to dinner and bring you back.
Resort shuttle or private car from Cam Ranh?
The resort’s paid shuttle is available at any hour, but no price is public. That makes it hard to budget, and for a group the shuttle’s per-person pricing usually adds up. A private car is a fixed price per car and takes the family and the luggage together. For a sedan or 7-seater, see the booking box.
Tours and day trips from Diamond Bay
The resort lists city tours and island trips at its desk. If you would rather have your own car and driver for a day, with a stop at the Po Nagar towers and a seafood lunch, ask for a car with a driver for the day, or read about eating in Nha Trang first.
Leaving Diamond Bay for the highlands, Mui Ne or Saigon
From Diamond Bay the Da Lat road is about 3 to 3¾ hours; read the Da Lat to Nha Trang route for the Khanh Le pass hours. For Mui Ne see the Mui Ne to Nha Trang route. The Nha Trang page has the Saigon drive and a price for every route.
