Ocaria Retreat Mui Ne

With 22 hotels already operating across Vietnam and six additional projects underway, the country stands as one of Meliá’s most powerful footholds in the Asia Pacific region, an achievement shaped by enduring brand trust and a genuine affinity with Vietnamese travelers.

Poised to debut in 2029, Ocaria Retreat Mui Ne, Member of Melia Collection, will offer 187 thoughtfully designed accommodations, including 156 guest rooms and 31 tranquil villas. Rooted in a deep appreciation of place, the resort has been conceived as a luxurious coastal retreat where a holistic, healthy lifestyle is nurtured in harmony with its natural surroundings. Every element of the design reflects a sensitivity to the original land, from the grounded textures of the villas to open, breathable spaces that invite nature in, creating an atmosphere of calm, balance, and effortless wellbeing.

Architecture will be carefully aligned with natural rhythms—guided by wind patterns and sun paths—featuring curved, sea‑facing forms that echo the movement of the ocean and terracotta façades inspired by surrounding dunes. Natural ventilation shaded outdoor spaces, and sustainable materials will shape an environment where comfort feels intuitive and conscious.

A curated selection of experiences —refined dining concepts, a serene spa, a state‑of‑the‑art gym, versatile meeting spaces, a vibrant kids club, and an outdoor pool framing sweeping coastal views— will bring to life a destination designed for meaningful connection and rejuvenation.

Mui Ne: Vietnam’s next great coastal escape

Set along one of Mui Ne’s most privileged beachfronts, the resort is embraced by dramatic dunes, swaying palms, and the timeless rhythm of the sea. Once a quiet fishing hamlet, Mui Ne has blossomed into a coastal treasure beloved by beach lovers, adventure seekers, and travelers drawn to its effortless blend of natural beauty and cultural authenticity. From its golden shoreline to its iconic Red Sand Dunes and bustling fishing village, Mui Ne offers an unfiltered window into the spirit of coastal Vietnam.

Just a three‑hour journey from Ho Chi Minh City via the Long Thanh–Dau Giay–Phan Thiet Expressway, the destination has never been more accessible. The upcoming Phan Thiet airport is set to enhance this even further, heralding a new era of discovery for both domestic and international guests.

The Meliá Collection brings to Vietnam a portfolio defined by character, heritage, and individuality. Each property within The Meliá Collection is chosen for its soul, its sense of place, its local storytelling, and its ability to offer travelers something truly singular. The arrival of this brand in Mui Ne embodies that philosophy: a refined yet relaxed retreat, where elevated hospitality meets the warmth and intuition for which Meliá is known.

The signing of Ocaria Retreat Mui Ne, Member of Melia Collection, reflects Meliá’s unwavering commitment to Vietnam, a market where the company continues to earn deep loyalty and recognition. With a portfolio that now spans five distinctive brands, Meliá continues to shape the country’s hospitality landscape through sustainable growth, meaningful partnerships, and a lifestyle‑driven approach rooted in culture, wellbeing, and place.

The hotel is owned by Nam Chau Tourism JSC, marking the beginning of a new partnership for Meliá in Vietnam. This first collaboration underscores the company’s commitment to growing alongside trusted local partners, fostering long‑term relationships that honor the region’s heritage while supporting sustainable tourism development. In celebration of this new alliance, the official signing ceremony took place in Ho Chi Minh City, bringing together leaders from both companies to mark the start of a shared vision for Mui Ne’s future.
