Viet Nam has been described as an emerging tiger, and the region has
certainly experienced tremendous growth in recent years. Vietnam is fast
becoming a key destination for business and leisure travellers and investors
keen to capitalize on the country’s economic strength and stability. With
a wealth of cultural centres, landscapes from stunning beaches hugging the
country’s 3,260-kilometre coastline to jagged mountain ranges, including the
highest peak in Southeast Asia, Vietnam is one of the most captivating places
on Earth.
Located at the heart of Asia, Vietnam is easily accessible to the most
highly populated regional centres. Ho Chi Minh City’s Tan Son Nhat
International Airport is Viet Nam's largest airport and the only one in the
south of the country, with a total annual passenger capacity of 15 to 17
million, eight to ten million of which are international business and leisure
travellers.
Vietnam and the broader Southeast Asian
region is densely population with the world’s greatest demonstrated propensity
to game. South and Central Asia is home to approximately four billion people
whose gaming demand is underserved by just 199 licensed gaming venues, versus
1,623 and 1,202 in North America and Europe, respectively. Furthermore, the
lucrative VIP segment of this robust market has few avenues to pursue gaming
activities in venues that befit these players. Most current gaming options in
the surrounding region lack premium facilities and a sufficient range of high
quality leisure amenities.
As the only licensed large-scale gaming establishment in southern
Vietnam, the Ho Tram Strip will enjoy prime positioning in this segment of the
Asian tourist market.
While the gaming market will play a key role
in the success of the Ho Tram Strip, the facility will be developed as a full-amenity
resort with a vast array of offerings catering to the needs of domestic
travellers and visitors from across the region.
Ho Tram Strip
Asian Coast Development (Canada) Ltd. is
building a multi-phase luxurious oceanfront resort destination along the Ho
Tram Strip, situated in Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province in southern Vietnam. When
complete, guests will have their choice of five luxury resorts and abundant
entertainment options, ranging from a PGA calibre 18-hole golf course to world-class
entertainment experiences. With 2.2 kilometres of beachfront property
overlooking the South China Sea, Ho Tram's luxurious integrated resort property
will make the area one of Asia’s premier holiday destinations. The development
starts with the spectacular MGM Grand Ho Tram, scheduled to open in 2013.
