Quick answer: Hyatt Regency Da Nang is a larger, more polished resort on quieter Non Nuoc beach, closer to Hoi An. Furama is Da Nang's original five-star on My Khe — smaller, more characterful, with legendary gardens and closer to city restaurants.

Hyatt Regency Da Nang vs Furama Resort
Non Nuoc's polished Hyatt versus My Khe's characterful original. Same price tier, very different experiences — your choice depends on which beach and which vibe you want.
Hotel Overview
Hyatt Regency Da Nang Resort & Spa
- ★★★★★ Full-service resort
- 196 rooms + 37 villas
- Non Nuoc — south Da Nang
- 5 pools including 100m beachfront pool
- World of Hyatt loyalty benefits
- From $150/night
Furama Resort Danang
- ★★★★★ Boutique resort character
- 198 rooms + villas
- My Khe — South My Khe strip
- 3 pools including lagoon pool
- Independent — no loyalty programme
- From $120/night
Both hotels sit in Da Nang's luxury resort tier, both have direct beach access, and both offer the full resort package — but they feel remarkably different. The Hyatt Regency is polished, contemporary, and enormous: its 100-metre pool alone is a statement. Furama trades scale for soul — it has been here since the 1990s and the tropical gardens and lagoon pool have a depth that newer resorts can't replicate. The Hyatt wins on modernity and facilities; Furama wins on atmosphere.
Location Comparison
| Category | Hyatt Regency Da Nang | Furama Resort Danang |
|---|---|---|
| Beach | Non Nuoc — quieter, resort-focused | My Khe — lively, more local character |
| From airport | ~20 min · $5–7 | ~15 min · $4–6 |
| From city centre | ~20 min · $5–7 | ~15 min · $4–6 |
| From Hoi An | ~35 min · $9–12 | ~45 min · $11–14 |
| From An Thuong restaurants | ~20 min Grab | ~8 min Grab |
| Nearby dining | Limited — resort dining or Grab out | An Thuong 10 min by Grab |
The key location difference: Hyatt sits on Non Nuoc beach, which is quieter and more Hoi An–adjacent. Furama is on My Khe beach, which is livelier and closer to Da Nang city and the An Thuong restaurant strip. If you're combining Da Nang with a Hoi An day trip, Hyatt's position saves ~20 minutes each way.

The Hyatt's 100-metre beachfront pool is genuinely impressive and one of the longest in Da Nang. Camp Hyatt gives families a structured programme that Furama's Kids Club doesn't quite match. Furama counters with La Maison 1888 — the only Michel Roux-affiliated restaurant in Da Nang — and the mature lagoon pool, which is far more photogenic than any standard resort pool.
Who Each Hotel Is Best For
Choose Hyatt Regency Da Nang if…
- You're a World of Hyatt member
- Hoi An day trips are a priority
- You want the longest pool in the area
- A structured kids programme matters (Camp Hyatt)
- You prefer Non Nuoc's quieter beach
- Modern contemporary design appeals more than character
Choose Furama Resort Danang if…
- Atmosphere and character matter more than modernity
- The lagoon pool and mature tropical gardens appeal
- La Maison 1888 fine dining is a priority
- You want My Khe proximity to An Thuong restaurants
- Budget is a factor — Furama often runs ~$30 cheaper
- You prefer a smaller, more intimate resort scale
Final Verdict
For most travellers the Hyatt Regency is the more logical choice: better facilities, structured kids programme, World of Hyatt benefits, and a better position for Hoi An day trips. If you're ticking boxes, the Hyatt ticks more of them.
But Furama wins on something harder to quantify — soul. The lagoon pool, the mature garden setting, and La Maison 1888 give it a character that newer resorts struggle to replicate. If you value atmosphere and want proximity to Da Nang's restaurant scene, Furama at a lower price point is the smarter pick.
Loyalty members should default to the Hyatt. Everyone else: decide between Non Nuoc quietness and My Khe vibrancy first, then let everything else follow.
