Ho Tram: Hot spot attracting tourism investment

Multifaceted advantages for tourism to take off

Ho Tram is a long coastline located between Long Hai and Binh Chau, in Xuyen Moc district, Ba Ria - Vung Tau province. This place was once voted by CNNGo (USA) as one of the most beautiful pristine beaches in the world, with clean, smooth white sand beaches, emerald green water, fresh climate, and warm sunshine all year round.

At Ho Tram, visitors can also explore the sand dunes and the rich system of rivers, lakes, bays and lagoons. In addition, Ho Tram is adjacent to Binh Chau - a hot mineral bath resort in the South, suitable for relaxation and health care activities. The pristine and diverse beauty and new experiences of Ho Tram have a strong attraction for visitors, especially visitors from the Southern provinces and international visitors.

Another advantage that makes Ho Tram convenient to attract tourists is its geographical location. Ho Tram is located in the southernmost region of the Southeast region and connects to the South Central region. The modern transport infrastructure system makes this place a connecting center with neighboring provinces and cities.

Thanks to the Long Thanh-Dau Giay Expressway, the journey from the center of Ho Chi Minh City to Ho Tram is only about 90 minutes by car. Long Thanh International Airport is expected to start operating from 2025 with a designed capacity of up to 25 million passengers per year and it only takes tourists 60 minutes to travel to Ho Tram. To connect with Binh Thuan and Lam Dong provinces, Ho Tram has the advantage of being located on Highway 55, which is extremely convenient. Parallel to Highway 55, the coastal road stretching from Vung Tau city to Mui Ne is also being invested in upgrading and expanding from the current 12 m to 42 m, opening up opportunities for connecting resort tourism regions.

Ho Tram also benefits from the orientation of developing tourism as a key economic sector of Ba Ria - Vung Tau province. All resources are focused by the locality to promote tourism. In particular, the planning of the Ho Chi Minh City region to 2030 and vision to 2050 has been approved by the Prime Minister, Ba Ria Vung Tau will develop all aspects of infrastructure.

In addition to the Ben Luc - Long Thanh expressway project expected to be put into operation from 2022, this coastal area also has many inter-regional traffic projects in the planning process such as Bien Hoa - Vung Tau expressway, Bien Hoa - Vung Tau railway, Ho Tram dual-use airport, undersea tunnel connecting Can Gio - Vung Tau... creating conditions to bring more and more tourists to Ho Tram.

New hot spot attracts billion-dollar resort projects

Possessing a "collection" of such tourism development advantages, Ho Tram is currently lacking mid-range and high-end hotels and resorts that integrate many types of entertainment facilities to meet the potential and advantages of local tourism. Therefore, Ho Tram quickly became the center of billion-dollar resort tourism projects of huge scale. Checking the list of projects being implemented here, you can "meet" all the "big" names in the field of resort real estate investment such as:NovaWorld Ho Tram(area of ​​1,000 hectares), Edenia Resort (over 40 hectares), Lagoona Binh Chau (27.5 hectares), The Hamptons Ho Tram (16.8 hectares)... These projects integrate accommodation services with many tourism and entertainment facilities such as water parks, safaris, theme parks, golf courses, shopping and culinary areas...

Sharing about the investment policy in Ho Tram, the representative of NovaWorld Ho Tram project said: "With a large land fund and favorable natural conditions, Ho Tram has a lot of potential for tourism development. However, in the past, Ho Tram was only exploited in the direction of pure resort, without many entertainment facilities. Thanks to the policy of focusing on promoting tourism of Ba Ria - Vung Tau province along with increasingly developed infrastructure, Ho Tram is quite favorable to deploy models integrating tourism and resort services with entertainment and experiences. This is the important factor for Novaland to decide to choose Ho Tram as one of the first places to deploy the Tourism - Resort - Entertainment Complex model under the NovaWorld brand. We will develop second home products - second homes: villas, townhouses, commercial townhouses with many international entertainment facilities. At the same time, we will also diversify the forms of high-class accommodation such as 4-5 star hotel chains by international brands. operate."

According to analysts, the presence of these mega projects will spur the explosive development of tourism real estate here. If in 2010-2012, investors were attracted to Da Nang and Nha Trang, at this time, the hot spots have shifted to the South, with Ho Tram being the center.

The simultaneous development of these projects will contribute significantly to the goal of developing high-quality tourism, contributing to the fundamental transformation of the economic structure of Ba Ria - Vung Tau province; contributing to the development of tourism in the Southeast region.

Is Ho Tram really an opportunity for resort investors?

In the resort real estate investment community, there is an investment experience that many people pass on: "Just stick to the sea to make a profit". In fact, the need to invest in apartments and beach resort villas is becoming a new trend of many real estate investors. Meanwhile, Ho Tram not only owns a long beach but is also adjacent to a large primeval forest, making the advantage of this locality not only one level higher in the eyes of investors. According to local real estate businesses, the price of coastal land around the Xuyen Moc - Ho Tram area has increased by about 10% in the past year, after the epidemic is controlled, the market will quickly become vibrant again. Moreover, at this time, the price level is still considered attractive, with high room for increase. Therefore, the amount of interest and transactions in resort real estate in Ho Tram will continue to increase in the coming time.

The presence of large-scale resort projects with the most modern and large-scale entertainment facilities today will quickly turn Ho Tram into a tourist capital with strong appeal to those who understand the need for relaxation, those who value the value of enjoying life; is an important factor to promote the development of resort trends in areas close to large urban areas. Especially, for investors living in Ho Chi Minh City and neighboring provinces, owning a second home here has gone beyond investment because it gives the family a "second home" to enjoy life every weekend.
