Vietnam’s Ho Tram resort region is undergoing a transformative expansion that places wellness and lifestyle at the heart of its next development phase. Spearheaded by Lodgis Hospitality Holdings in partnership with VinaLiving, the new project—Maia Ho Tram—is envisioned as a landmark integrated development combining hospitality, residences, wellness facilities, and immersive nature-based design.
The expansion spans approximately 35 hectares and carries an investment exceeding USD 1 billion, aiming to enhance The Grand Ho Tram Strip into a more holistic destination. The master plan includes five-star hotels, luxury resort villas, convention space, entertainment venues, and a comprehensive wellness and medical spa center. Construction for the first phase, Maia Resort Ho Tram Phase A1, has already begun with ground laid in April 2025.
Key to the vision is the appointment of Dewan Architects + Engineers as the lead architect and interior designer. Their approach emphasizes a wellness ethos, blending built form with nature—through cascading terraces, sky gardens, and axial views that link interior spaces to the oceanfront setting. The development will feature two high-rise towers (Peace and Happy), a villa enclave, and a rich amenity podium including rooftop wellness decks.
Maia Ho Tram will host 1,244 condominium apartments and 36 seaside villas, with hospitality operations managed under the Maia Resort (by Fusion) brand. The podium level will contain amenities like a kids’ club, multifunction hall for up to 400 people, dining and food courts, wellness spaces, and a beach club. This wellness orientation aligns with earlier additions to The Grand Ho Tram, such as Ixora Ho Tram by Fusion, which opened with 164 guest rooms and 46 villas under a wellness-inspired concept.
Beyond Maia, the broader expansion anticipates multiple zones (A2, B, TT) rolling out through 2027, gradually raising the resort’s total capacity toward 9,000 rooms. The expansion is strategically timed with infrastructure upgrades: expressway projects like Bien Hoa – Vung Tau and Ben Luc – Long Thanh, plus the planned Ho Tram — Long Thanh airport expressway, aim to reduce transit times from Ho Chi Minh City and boost tourist flows.
This shift signals a maturation of Vietnam’s resort and hospitality sector toward wellness, integrated living, and premium lifestyle destinations. If realized as planned, Ho Tram may emerge not only as a luxury resort cluster but as a benchmark for wellness-driven real estate and hospitality in Southeast Asia.
