Thailand or Vietnam

We are thinking of going to either Thailand or Vietnam in August. We have been to Thailand before and love it but would like to experience somewhere slightly different. If we went to Vietnam we would spend a week doing cultural excursions and then a week on the beach in Hoi An.
I'd love to hear of anyone's experiences of Vietnam. What did you think of it? I understand it is very beautiful and the people are very warm. What was the food like and the getting around? I think we would spend our whole time in the North and on the coast.

Thanks so much for all of the advice. We have booked our trip and very excited. A few days in Hanoi, then a cruise in Halong Bay followed by 10 days in Hoi An which we will use as a base to do a few trips from. And flying back from Hanoi. Really happy to be trying something different.

Central VN is a good place to visit in August (Not in the rainy season).
You can spend 10 days on doing Danang/ Hoian, Hue and/ or Dong Hoi/ Phong Nha cave; An Bang beach is good for some beach time while staying Hoian. Otherwise, Quy Nhon or Nha Trang is also an option.
It is your plan!
