La Spa in Hoi An is a magical oasis and definitely worth a visit! The staff were so helpful and squeezed me in at last minute for a 90 minute massage which was divine. In the future I do recommend to book in advance. The staff were so nice and welcoming with beautiful teas on arrival and leaving and even called me a cab to get back to my hotel. Lovely spa! Definitely put it on your list to do!

Jack's Cat Cafe is Central Vietnam's first cat cafe and homes over 50 rescue cats. You can enjoy coffee, tea, juices and vegetarian food in a beautiful garden setting with all the kitties.
Reviewed By asiddiqi5 - Hanoi, Vietnam
This place is more of a kitty sanctuary than a cat cafe. And this is meant in very good way. The volunteers are extremely welcoming and kind. The cats are very sweet. When we went there were around 50+ cats roaming the open court yard. My kids (15, 12, and 10) absolutely loved it. I would highly recommend this to animal lovers who are looking to just relax from the usual touristy activities in Hoi An. I would suggest that if you bring young children, make sure they are understanding how to act with the cats as some of them may be nervous.
6. Precious Heritage by Rehahn

A 500m2 display of photos and artifacts collected during the last 8 years of Rehahn's exploration of Vietnam. Entrance for this cultural experience is Free In English, French and Vietnamese
Reviewed By ilarialuceripoll - Jakarta, Indonesia
This is definitely a not-to-be-missed gem in Hoi An. Forget the ethnographic and history museums in Hanoi and Saigon, this is the place to truly learn about the different people who inhabit Vietnam. Réhahn is truly passionate about showcasing and preserving the rich heritage of all the ethnic groups in the country, and he has managed to personally assemble a wonderfully extensive collection of traditional costumes and other artefacts. These are presented better than in any museum we have seen here, with detailed explanations for each and—huge bonus—fantastic portraits of villagers. The gallery is free and has set up a couple of humanitarian projects entirely financed through the sale of the gorgeous photographs and books. Absolutely worthwhile spending an hour or so here, and if you happen to be in luck and visit when Rehahn is actually there himself you are in for an extra treat.

We had the pleasure of buying a wonderful oil on canvas from Ly Ly Gallery in Hoi An today. Ly Ly opened her gallery up just for us as after we called her to say we were in the area and wanted to check out her inventory. She couldn’t do enough for us in terms of offering ideas, options and packing solution that would make it the 30 hours travel trip back home! Run don’t walk to this gem of a find.

We made 2 dresses and 1 three-piece suit, Lu was amazing and considerate and made as many fixes as we wanted until the outcome was perfect as we first imagined! The prices are fair for the quality of the fiber and the work, and include all the fixes from the start. Also you get free water and beer which is a nice touch.
