Wyndham Grand Phu Quoc
Wyndham Opens First Wyndham Grand in Phu Quoc
Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, the world's largest hotel franchising company and leading provider of management services with approximately 9,100 hotels spanning more than 95 countries, today unveiled a new property in Phu Quoc, Vietnam: the 1,399-room Wyndham Grand Phu Quoc - the largest Wyndham Grand in Asia Pacific.
The opening of Wyndham Grand Phu Quoc marks the Company's first endeavour into Phu Quoc and join a portfolio of 14 other Wyndham hotels throughout Vietnam. The market is a key strategic focus for Wyndham and positions the Company well for the country's strong recovery in travel, especially as Vietnam welcomed 2.69 million international tourists in the first quarter of 2023, surpassing a third of the country's target of 8 million by the end of this year, according to the General Statistics Office of Vietnam.
Phu Quoc - Vietnam's largest island - has become an especially attractive holiday locale in recent years and was named the World's Leading Nature Island destination at the 2022 World Travel Awards. Contributing in part to Phu Quoc's booming tourism sector is their welcoming visa policy, which exempts foreigners from entry, exit, and transit visas for up to 30 days. Wyndham is strategically leveraging these factors to further support the growth of this up-and-coming destination.
Under the separate partnership agreements with Phu Quoc Tourism Development and Investment Joint Stock Company for Wyndham Grand Phu Quoc, this announcement is also indicative of strong levels of trust and confidence between Wyndham and its partners.
The 1,399-room Wyndham Grand Phu Quoc marks the largest Wyndham Grand in the Asia Pacific region, including 27 newly constructed villas set to open later this year. Inspired by an oasis under the sea, Wyndham Grand Phu Quoc offers a distinctive, escapist experience, ensuring easy access to a variety of entertainment options including a kid's club, indoor cinema, theatre, golf course, a wide range of gourmet offerings across various cuisines, and more. The complex also features attractions such as Grand World, Amusement Park, Safari Phu Quoc, and Corona Casino, further ensuring guests of an enjoyable stay with a vast selection of recreation activities.
