A VND5.5 trillion ($261 million) resort and golf course complex invested by FLC Group in the central province of Thanh Hoa plans to start operations in May next year.

According to Doan Van Phuong, FLC’s general director, the province’s largest golf and resort complex took shape as part of next year’s National Tourism Year programme, to be hosted by the locality.

Once finished, the 400 hectare compound will include an 18-hole golf course and high-end hotel and resort.

The project will also offer 670 villas and 152 semi-detached houses for sale.

FLC Group recently put on sale memberships at the project’s Fusion Maia Samson Golf Links.

The first memberships will include incentives such as free green fees, a discount of 10 per cent at the Pro Shop, 10 per cent off all food and beverage services, and free hotel stays.

Memberships are valid through 2049.

Located at Sam Son beach in Thanh Hoa, 135 kilometres from Hanoi, the golf course was designed by Nicklaus Design, which has worked with more than 400 courses around the world and is managed by Flagstick. This will be Nicklaus’ first project in Vietnam and will also be the northern region’s first five-star golf course.

The Fusion Maia Samson Resort is planned to be managed by Serenity Holding Group, a famous hotel management company with sub-brands such as Fusion, A La Carte and Alma.

FLC’s project is expected to turn Sam Son and Thanh Hoa into a popular tourism hub in Vietnam’s northern region.
