This is the first time in the history of the WTAs that one resort has received this prestigious award for two consecutive years.

Owned by Sun Group, the InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort is a five-star resort and spa located on Son Tra Peninsula.  Since operations began in June 2012, the resort has welcomed thousands of international visitors, including world famous superstars and politicians.

Hailed as ‘the Oscars of the travel industry’, the WTAs are the most prestigious and well-known awards in the tourism industry.  The Awards measure the excellence of the service providers by setting customer satisfaction as the top criterion, by which it can help further encourage the competitiveness and quality of the global tourism and hospitality industry.
