Best Western has signed a new hotel on Vietnam’s stunning southeast coast, Vung Tau.
The deal, signed with local developer Cong Ty Co Phan Du Lich Hoa Anh Dao, will see Best Western take the reigns of the 200-room Oceanami Resort & Luxury Home in Vung Tau. The hotel is scheduled to open its doors in the third quarter of 2013.
“Today, we are proud to announce a new property that we believe will become a landmark in this up-and-coming area of Vietnam,” said Mr Glenn de Souza, Best Western International’s Vice President International Operations – Asia & the Middle East. “In Ba Ria-Vung Tau province, and across the country, hotels are being opened and attractions developed to cater for a new wave of incoming tourists. Vietnam is booming and Best Western International is delighted to be able to work with the country to help it achieve its huge potential.”
Located on the South China Sea coast in southeast Vietnam, Ba Ria-Vung Tau is easily accessible from Ho Chi Minh city. With its white sandy beaches and stunning architecture, it is known as one of Vietnam’s most beautiful provinces and is fast-becoming one of the country’s foremost tourism destinations.
Ba Ria-Vung Tau is also home to a thriving petroleum industry, making new hotel development essential for both business and leisure travelers.
Oceanami Hotel & Resort will be joining the Best Western hotel collection, offering 200 rooms and a range of facilities including a sports centre, tennis court, entertainment centre, swimming pool, restaurant, sea club and healthcare services.
“Last year, Vietnam welcomed more than six million visitor arrivals for the first time in the country’s history. This marks a 180% rise in international visitors since the year 2000, and there is little sign of this momentum slowing. With beautiful provinces like Ba Ria-Vung Tao, a strong industrial economy and a warm and welcoming people, Vietnam’s popularity will surely go from strength to strength. We at Best Western International look forward to being at the forefront of its development,” Mr de Souza added.
