Travel Off Path included Da Nang and Hoi An in a 2025 selection of affordable Asian destinations for digital nomads. The article highlighted their mix of coastal scenery, food and places to spend an extended stay.
Da Nang combines a working city with beaches and easy access to the Son Tra Peninsula. The report quoted relatively low rents and meal costs, but those were estimates at the time, not current prices or a guaranteed budget.
Nearby Hoi An offers historic streets, cafés and access to the coast. Chiang Mai, Phnom Penh and Makassar also appeared in the selection. Anyone considering a longer stay should check suitable accommodation, internet reliability and the visa or work conditions that apply to their circumstances.
