In early 2017, Elegance Hospitality Group (EHG) announced the rebranding of Essence Hoi An Hotel & Spa (which opened in 2013) to La Siesta Resort & Spa.

- A new east wing of Hoi An themed townhouse villas housing a luxurious collection of high-end guest suites with gardens, balconies and terraces.
- The east wing saltwater pool, the first of its kind in Hoi An old town.
- The Temple fine dining restaurant offering international dishes and premium seafood fare.
- The central La Siesta spa lounge and refurbished La Siesta spa treatment rooms (housed in garden villas).
- An expansion of the property’s tropical gardens featuring 22 species of trees and plants.
