Fun and Sunny days in Danang - WHAT TO SEE. WHAT TO DO.

photos taken with our GoPro.

We stayed 2 nights at Fusion Suites Danang as we read up on TripAdvisor that this particular hotel has great rooms, near to a beach although its swimming pool is across a road but it was clean, spacious and relatively affordable.

The boys really enjoyed their stay here because our room had its own kitchen, bunk beds for the boys. spacious bathroom, a wonderful beach view from our living area and best of all, the cable tv had Disney channel for the boys. Will post photos of the hotel room in another blog soon.

Travelling with kids is definitely no easy feat but it is definitely worth all your time and effort because of the many wonderful memories you have created with your children. Well at least that's how i felt! Although by the end of first day at the beach, hubs and myself were drowned with muscle ache but our 2 boys were just bubbling with energy! We couldn't wait for them to fall asleep.... >_<

After awhile at the pool, Jules wanted to make sandcastles by the beach, so all of us had to move our stuff over. The hotel provided a few beach huts with sundeck chairs for visitors to use.

The beach was very clean with crystal clear waters. The sand was white and fine which made it great for a walk down the beach on a early morning. But by afternoon, it gets too hot to walk.

Danang Beach is super friendly for young children. It is so flat! So the children can run and walk along the beach and even enjoy splashing themselves against the sea waves.

You can opt for Basket Boat Eco tours cum biking tour in Hoi An. Something which older kids might enjoy doing if you have extra time on your hands. But because I can't ride a bicycle and James is too young for these sort of rides, we didn't bother to sign up for any local tours. Frankly speaking, as long as I bring a bucket and shovels for the boys, they are actually very happy to stay put on the beach the WHOLE DAY.

My best recommendation for families with young children is to do Hoi An for half a day only and preferably after lunch say about 4pm onwards when the sun starts to set so that it will not be too hot. It can get really hot in Hoi An - no trees, just yellow concrete buildings and little roof eaves for shade. Hoi An has many good eateries too so you can grab your dinner there. Will post my eats in Hoi An in another post! so stay tuned for it. :)
