While many of us may tout Vietnam as a country renowned for its breathtaking landscapes and vibrant culture, it also has been making waves in the entertainment industry. Suppose you move away from the touristy destinations of the country like Hoi An, and Ha Long Bay. In that case, the country has an untapped location, Grand Ho Tram, emerging as a prominent player and earning itself the moniker of the Vegas of Asia. You’ll find a blend of traditional Vietnamese culture and international sophistication here. Take a detour from the country’s regular escapades and head to The Grand Ho Tram where the tranquil ocean comes with a sprinkle of fun and party in Vietnam’s emerging entertainment capital.
Bliss In Splendour
The Grand Ho Tram strives to live up to its name in size and luxury. The hotel promises non-stop entertainment and is located on a long stretch of remote beach land across 2.2 km, just two hours southeast of Ho Chi Minh City. As you approach closer to this new-age destination, the resort’s proximity to the bustling metropolis while maintaining a serene and secluded ambience stands out. The resort’s facade is an impressive sight, with grandiose structures rising against the backdrop of the South China Sea.
When it comes to staying, the resort comprises multiple towers housing luxurious hotel rooms and suites. The property houses two hotels, Intercontinental and the Holiday Inn Resort.
When it comes to the rooms of the Intercontinental, they are opulent with an inviting panoramic view of greenery and at the other, the vast, vast ocean. The floor-to-ceiling windows make the rooms the highest standards of comfort and sophistication. While the rooms at Holiday Inn Resort Ho Tram Beach have an expansive view of the swimming pool and the beach for some seaside relaxation. From spacious rooms to suites with contemporary design, these cosy and inviting rooms make you feel at home.
Out of all these, it is their world-class golf course, The Bluffs that appeals the most. After all, it’s not every day you get to play on a course designed by the legendary golfer Greg Norman. The juxtaposition of the emerald green fairways against the azure backdrop of the ocean creates a visual spectacle. A round at The Bluffs is not just a game; it’s an immersive experience.
