IAG DEC 2020年12月 亞博匯 26 COVER STORY Hoiana adds luxury accommodation and a diversity of entertainment options to complement the cultural allure of Hoi An and the tropical white sand beaches along its coastal margin. 會安南岸能夠為會安在文化氣息以及海岸 線上的熱帶白沙灘外，增添奢華住宿和多元 娛樂。 L ocated on a massive 945 hectares of land, with 3km of beach frontage and just a short hop across the river to the culturally rich heritage town of Hoi An, the US$4 billion Hoiana integrated resort is a game changer in every sense of the word. For Vietnam and more specifically the surrounding Quang Nam Province bordering Da Nang to the north, Hoiana adds luxury accommodation and a diversity of entertainment options to complement the cultural allure of Hoi An and the tropical white sand beaches along its coastal margin. But for the property’s owners – Hong Kong-listed Suncity Group, hospitality investor VMS Investment Group and Vietnam's leading investment firm VinaCapital – it represents their most significant foray yet into casino and IR operations. “In terms of Suncity Group Holdings Limited, the listed platform of Suncity Group, it aims to expand its investment in integrated resorts as well as casinos within the Asia region,” Suncity says of its involvement. The company also holds a 69.66% stake in Summit Ascent Holdings, which owns a majority stake in Russian casino resort Tigre de Cristal, and a 51% stake in a Philippines entity set to develop a US$700 million hotel and casino in Manila’s Entertainment City precinct.
