The integrated resort will include a number of hotel brands including Vinpearl, VinOasis, VinHoliday, and Radisson Blue - combined to offer more than 10,000 rooms. It will also house the largest theme park in Vietnam, VinWonders Phu Quoc, and VinPearl Safari, one of the largest semi-wild conservation parks in Asia.
The resort also includes a 18-hole golf course, a 24-hour shopping and entertainment area, and the Corona Casino and Resort, offering 1,000 slot machines, 100 table games and a 600-seat theatre.
This is important as the Corona Casino and Resort is one of the casinos in Vietnam approved to allow local players through a trial programme lasting three years.
In order to gamble, citizens must be over 21 years of age and have a monthly income of at least US$445.
The ability to cater to domestic punters is seen as a beacon of strength for the Phu Quoc casino and surrounding complex, as local tourism has been seen as key to bolstering revenues amidst border closures.
“With an ecosystem of thousands of facilities and record entertainment items, Phu Quoc United Center not only satisfies the needs of enjoying – playing – resting – exploring for all visitors, but also providing unprecedented experiences in Vietnam,” said Vingroup in an announcement.
