Hon Dau Resort: An International-Scale Eco-Resort Destination in Do Son, Hai Phong
As experts in the resort real estate sector, we recognize Hon Dau Resort as more than just a development—it is the first fully integrated eco-tourism complex of its kind and scale in Northern Vietnam. Located in a prime position in Area 3, Van Huong, Do Son, Hai Phong, Hon Dau Resort promises an ideal living environment that harmoniously combines eco-resort living with profitable tourism business opportunities.
Project Overview of Hon Dau Resort
Hon Dau Resort is developed by Hon Dau International Tourism Joint Stock Company with the vision of becoming a modern eco-tourism and resort destination of international stature. The project has been carefully planned to meet sustainable development principles while maximizing the tourism potential of Do Son and Hon Dau Island, creating an attractive and safe destination for both domestic and international visitors.
Scale and Breakthrough Infrastructure
Hon Dau Resort spans a total area of 108.39 hectares, consisting of two primary zones: the reclaimed expansion area of Hon Dau Island (Zone A, approximately 54 hectares) and the reclaimed expansion area of the Do Son Peninsula (Zone B, over 60 hectares). The reclaimed land is protected by a robust dual-seawall system. The first seawall safeguards permanent structures, while the second seawall, located 100 meters away and surrounding the project, ensures maximum protection against Category 15–16 typhoons. The safety and construction quality have been thoroughly evaluated by international experts, confirming that this land reclamation project is of regional significance and designed for long-term durability.
Currently, Hon Dau Resort has completed technical infrastructure for the 63-hectare reclaimed expansion area of the Do Son Peninsula. In the coming years, the project will continue developing water parks, artificial beaches, natural beaches, seaside restaurants, and numerous other facilities.
Development Strategy and Investment Attraction
With the ambition of becoming a world-class eco-tourism center, Hon Dau Group is actively seeking domestic and international investors with strong financial capabilities and extensive experience in international-standard tourism real estate development. Secondary investors are invited to develop premium hotels, villa complexes, performance venues, marine life attractions, and tourism ports.
Notably, the master developer is willing to lease back facilities developed by secondary investors, creating attractive long-term income opportunities. All residential real estate within the project is granted long-term ownership certificates, ensuring strong legal security for investors.
Prime Location and Transportation Connectivity
Hon Dau Resort is located in Area 3, Van Huong Ward, Do Son District, Hai Phong City. This location is considered a premier coastal resort destination with convenient transportation access:
- Only 10 km from the intersection of Expressway 5B and Pham Van Dong Boulevard.
- Approximately one hour by car from Hanoi.
This strategic location not only provides convenient access for visitors but also offers breathtaking views of the sea and the majestic Cat Ba Island.
Landscape Design and Unique Villa Architecture
Talented architects designed Hon Dau Resort with creativity and distinctive features. The project prioritizes preserving the existing lush primeval forest on Hon Dau Island while enhancing the area's natural beauty without disrupting the ecosystem. Large-scale structures are carefully integrated within expansive green spaces.
Luxurious Resort Villas
Zone B of Hon Dau International Tourism Area includes Pine Hill Villas, Hillside Villas, Marina Villas, Green Stream Villas, and Green Valley Villas—consisting exclusively of villas, with no apartment buildings or townhouses. This reinforces the exclusivity and prestige of the resort.
The luxurious and modern villas, ranging from 300 m² and 400 m² to 500 m² and even 927 m², are elegantly blended with the natural beauty of the Do Son Peninsula, creating a harmonious combination of modern architecture and traditional Asian cultural elements. Villa construction density is maintained at only 35%, with a maximum height of 15 meters, ensuring abundant green space alongside pine forests and pristine beaches.
A unique design feature is the openness and continuity between villas. Instead of fences, properties are separated by carefully maintained grass borders only 10–15 cm high. Villas are built on gently sloping terrain toward the sea, with a uniform 3-meter elevation difference from hillside villas to beachfront villas, maximizing sea views for every residence.
Main Villa Types:
- Pine Hill Villas: Located on hillside slopes, bordered by natural pine forests at the rear and overlooking the sea and Cat Ba Island in front. Areas range from 577 m² to 927 m².
- Hillside Villas: Situated at the foot of Do Son Hill. Areas range from 300 m² to 500 m².
- Marina Villas: Located beside the yacht marina, facing Hon Dau Island. Areas range from 300 m² to 450 m².
- Green Stream Villas: Positioned between two landscaped streams, backed by pine forests and a natural stone museum, with views toward Hon Dau Island. Areas range from 300 m² to 450 m².
- Green Valley Villas: Located near the Ho Chi Minh Sea Trail historical site and Do Son Casino. Areas range from 300 m² to 450 m².

Pricing and Investment Opportunities
Hon Dau Resort is not only a leisure destination but also a golden coastal investment opportunity. With limited land supply in the area, owning real estate within Hon Dau Resort represents a strategic long-term investment.
Price Range
Current selling prices range from 10 - 13.46 million VND/m².
Investment Potential
Investing in luxurious resort villas combined with world-class amenities offers strong long-term appreciation potential. Moreover, the master developer’s leaseback commitment provides investors with a stable and sustainable income stream.
In the near future, Hon Dau Resort is expected to become Northern Vietnam’s first fully integrated tourism complex, serving both eco-residential and tourism business purposes. With international-standard infrastructure and comprehensive facilities, the project is poised to become Vietnam’s next leading eco-tourism destination.
(A total area of 1,083.9 m² is recorded in cell L85; however, the project overview in S85 specifies a total area of 108.39 hectares, which is more consistent with the scale of a resort development. Developer: Hon Dau International Tourism Joint Stock Company.)
Investing in a Green Future
As eco-tourism and luxury resort living continue to grow in popularity, Hon Dau Resort—with its pristine natural surroundings, thoughtful planning, robust infrastructure, and diverse amenities—stands out as an exceptional opportunity. Owning a villa here not only provides an ideal family retreat but also represents a long-term investment in a premier coastal destination with significant growth potential.
Those seeking tranquility, fresh air, outstanding cuisine, and the soothing atmosphere of the sea will find Hon Dau to be the perfect destination. Supported by the developer’s commitment to quality and the continued growth of Hai Phong’s tourism sector, Hon Dau Resort firmly establishes itself as one of the region’s premier resort real estate developments.
