Vietnam is one of the world’s most dynamic markets for travel and tourism, so we are thrilled to be able to announce these 10 new hotels and resorts in collaboration with Sun Group. Marriott’s portfolio in Vietnam has doubled since 2022, as we cater to record numbers of international travelers and rising demand from domestic guests seeking world-class accommodation. Our continued collaboration with Sun Group, one of the country’s most visionary developers with a proven track record of creating destination-defining projects, reinforces our commitment to the long-term future of Vietnam – including Phu Quoc, which is rapidly emerging as one of Asia’s most dynamic tourism destinations, with unsurpassed facilities for leisure, business and global events.

We are thrilled to announce this landmark agreement with Marriott International, as we continue with our mission to transform Vietnam into a global leader for travel, tourism, hospitality and MICE. This agreement represents the strategic alignment of two leading companies to elevate the scale, structure and international positioning of destination development in Vietnam. By integrating global brands into a master-planned ecosystem of entertainment, infrastructure and large-scale venues, we are reinforcing Phu Quoc’s ability to host world-class events and attract travelers from diverse international markets. Phu Quoc’s hosting of APEC 2027 will be an era-defining moment, positioning the island on a global stage and creating lasting benefits for the entire region.

At Ruby Beach in southern Phu Quoc, Marriott is slated to launch five new hotels under five distinct brands – W Hotels, Marriott Hotels, Westin Hotels & Resorts, Le Méridien, and Courtyard by Marriott within an 88.4-hectare mixed-use development which is being developed by Sun Group for APEC 2027. A short cable car ride away in the island paradise of Hon Thom – Moxy Hotels and Fairfield by Marriott will command a prime beachside setting.

Phu Quoc, Vietnam's "Pearl Island,” has emerged as one of Asia’s most compelling tourism destinations with many world-class attractions developed by Sun Group. Marriott’s portfolio of hotels are set to serve as hospitality anchors within a synchronized destination mode with direct access to iconic assets such as the world’s longest three-wire cable car to Hon Thom Island, large-scale theme and water parks, internationally acclaimed multimedia shows, the Kiss Bridge and Sunset Town — where fireworks illuminate the sky every night, 365 days a year.

The addition of these seven new hotels and resorts, seamlessly woven into Sun Group's prestigious projects, is expected to enhance the destination’s status as an international hub for tourism, hospitality, leisure and MICE. The recent launch of Sun Group’s Sun Phu Quoc Airways has also added to the island’s international connectivity.

On Vietnam’s southeast coast, just a short drive from Ho Chi Minh City, the impressive new Vung Tau Blanca City development is planned to showcase three all-new properties under the Marriott Hotels, Moxy Hotels, and Four Points by Sheraton brands. With fast accessibility from the newly opened Long Thanh International Airport, this is set to become a prime beachfront destination for domestic and international travelers alike.

These 10 new properties will complement Marriott’s existing portfolio of 32 properties currently operating across Vietnam, spanning 11 of the group’s extraordinary brands, with more than 50 properties in the development pipeline.
