5.8 Hoiana Resort

Vietnam — Property

Hoiana is a luxury integrated resort located in Quang Nam Province, Vietnam, south of Hoi An. The property opened in 2020 (amid the COVID-19 pandemic) and features a casino (foreigner-only), golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr., and luxury accommodations. Hoiana is being developed by a consortium including Hong Kong-listed Suncity Group Holdings (a separate entity from the Macau junket operator, though related) and VinaCapital. The resort is positioned to attract international tourists, particularly from North Asia.

In practice

Hoiana’s opening during the pandemic severely impacted its initial operations, but the property represents Vietnam’s push to develop integrated resort tourism along its central coast.
