Danang, Vietnam – From the world’s fastest-growing sport to one of Central Vietnam’s most iconic cultural experiences, Sheraton Grand Danang Beach Resort & Spa is redefining the modern beach holiday through a new collection of active and immersive guest experiences. The resort has officially launched a series of recreational activities for in-house guests, highlighted by its newly opened pickleball court and a variety of wellness and cultural experiences centered around its iconic 250-metre infinity pool.
As travellers increasingly seek holidays that support physical wellbeing, mental rejuvenation and meaningful family connections, Sheraton Grand Danang has developed a diverse programme designed for guests of all ages. The initiative transforms the beachfront resort into a destination where relaxation, movement and local discovery come together seamlessly.
The centrepiece of the new programme is the resort’s pickleball court, officially launched in June 2026. Built to standard dimensions of 19.7 x 10.2 metres, the court features a multi-layer cushioned surface that enhances comfort and safety for players of all skill levels. A dedicated LED lighting system allows play from 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM, while premium paddles and balls from Olaben ensure a quality experience for both beginners and seasoned enthusiasts.
More than simply a new recreational facility, the introduction of pickleball reflects the growing global trend of Active Wellness Travel. Easy to learn, social and suitable for a wide range of ages, pickleball has quickly become a favourite activity for families, groups of friends and international travellers seeking engaging experiences during their stay.
Alongside modern sporting activities, Sheraton Grand Danang is also bringing local culture into the guest journey through its basket boat spinning experience, inspired by the famous Bay Mau Coconut Forest in Hoi An.
For years, the distinctive round basket boats and the skilful spinning performances of local fishermen have been among the most memorable experiences for visitors to Central Vietnam. Now recreated within the resort grounds, the activity offers guests an entertaining and accessible way to experience a beloved local tradition without leaving the resort. More than a water-based attraction, the basket boat experience serves as a cultural bridge, helping international visitors and families with children gain a deeper appreciation for the coastal lifestyle and heritage that have shaped the identity of the central region.
Guests can also enjoy a range of activities around the resort’s 250-metre infinity pool, including stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), water yoga, pétanque and interactive family games. Together, these experiences create a unique balance between global wellness trends and authentic local culture, delivering a holiday that is both active and enriching.
Bên cạnh đó, du khách còn có thể tham gia nhiều hoạt động giải trí và vận động bên hồ bơi vô cực dài 250 mét như chèo SUP, Yoga nước, bi sắt kiểu Ý (bocce) và các trò chơi tương tác dành cho gia đình. Sự kết hợp giữa những trải nghiệm mang tính toàn cầu như pickleball với các hoạt động đậm bản sắc địa phương đã tạo nên một hành trình nghỉ dưỡng cân bằng giữa khám phá, vận động và kết nối văn hóa.
“Today’s travellers are looking for more than a beach vacation. They seek experiences that keep them active, help them reconnect with loved ones and allow them to discover the destination in meaningful ways. With our new activity programme, including the newly launched pickleball court and culturally inspired basket boat experience, we hope to create a more memorable and well-rounded stay for every guest,” said Emilio Fortini – General Manager of Sheraton Grand Danang Beach Resort & Spa.
The launch of the pickleball court and the expanded recreation programme further reinforces Sheraton Grand Danang’s commitment to enhancing guest experiences while strengthening its position as one of Central Vietnam’s leading destinations for families, active travellers and wellness-focused holidays.
