Book your nail appointment in Da Nang between 10:00 and 11:30 at either the An Thuong (34 An Thuong 3) or Nguyen Van Thoai branch. From southern Da Nang, Hoi An Ancient Town is an easy 35 to 40-minute Grab ride (28 km, ~250,000₫–300,000₫), arriving right for lantern lighting and afternoon sightseeing.
Which Da Nang nail branch is best positioned on the way to Hoi An?
The southern beach branches—34 An Thuong 3 and 211/88 Nguyen Van Thoai—are positioned along Vo Nguyen Giap / Truong Sa coastal road leading directly south to Hoi An. Departing from these locations cuts 10 to 15 minutes off your transit time compared to departing from north Da Nang.
What is the ideal schedule for a combined day trip?
Start with breakfast at your hotel, attend your nail appointment at 10:30 (finishing by 11:30 for a 45-min gel manicure), take an early lunch in An Thuong, and catch a Grab to Hoi An around 13:30. This ensures you arrive in Hoi An before sunset when lanterns illuminate the streets.
How much does transportation cost between Da Nang and Hoi An?
A Grab 4-seater car between southern Da Nang and Hoi An typically costs between 250,000₫ and 320,000₫ each way (approx. $10–$13 USD). Grab cars are readily available in both directions along the coastal road until late evening, making evening return travel easy and convenient.

Can you get a pedicure to prepare for walking Hoi An's cobblestones?
Yes, an Exfoliation Pedicure (250,000₫) removes dry skin and includes heel buffering. Pair it with gel toenail polish (200,000₫) so your toes look vibrant in sandals while walking through Hoi An's historic streets and lantern-lit bridges throughout the afternoon and evening.
Questions before you book
Here are clear answers to common questions about timing, booking, pricing, and salon policies before your visit.
Can I wear sandals immediately after a pedicure?
With gel polish, yes! Gel cures 100% dry under the lamp, meaning you can slip into strappy sandals right away.
How late do Grab rides operate returning from Hoi An?
Grab cars operate reliably until midnight between Hoi An and Da Nang hotels.
Can I leave shopping bags at the salon?
If you plan to return to Da Nang via the same branch, technicians can hold your bags during your service.
How far in advance should I book the morning slot?
Booking 1 day ahead ensures you secure the 10:00 or 10:30 slot without impacting your afternoon transit.
