Merger Boost Creates a Southern Metropolis Powerhouse
In the relentless flow of mergers and urbanization, Vietnam is witnessing a transformative shift in its infrastructure, planning, and regional development strategies. A new focal point on the Southern investment map is the province of Ba Ria-Vung Tau, which is emerging with a brand-new symbol: the $1 billion Highway 68, a transportation backbone for the future metropolis and a strategic connector between numerous pivotal economic links.
The plan to merge and form a super-city encompassing three of the most dynamic centers in the South, including Ho Chi Minh City, Binh Duong, and Ba Ria-Vung Tau, is laying the foundation for an entirely new development landscape. In this model, infrastructure synchronization and connectivity become critical factors, and Highway 68 is the answer to this aspiration.
This over-18-kilometer arterial road will gradually replace National Highway 51, providing a direct connection from the Bien Hoa-Vung Tau Expressway to the center of the coastal city. Beyond being a geographical link, Highway 68 holds strategic importance by reducing cargo transportation time from the industrial areas of Dong Nai and Binh Duong to the Cai Mep- Thi Vai port. It also serves as the backbone for the further development of coastal tourism. With the maritime economic strategy, it can be said that post-merger, Ba Ria-Vung Tau will play a pivotal role in international trade through its modern port and logistics system.
Notably, with the completion of Highway 68 and the operation of the Long Thanh International Airport, Ba Ria-Vung Tau will become a crucial transportation hub, connecting air, sea, and road transport – a combination rarely found in other regions in Vietnam. This synergy will unlock a “golden triangle” of logistics, tourism, and trade, propelling the region to new heights.
Gold Coast Vung Tau: The Prime Location for Living and Profitable Investment
Consequently, the focus of Southern real estate investment has swiftly shifted to Ba Ria-Vung Tau, with prominent developers announcing “billion-dollar” projects in Chi Linh and Cai Mep in recent times. Even more remarkably, the strong wave of real estate investment in the local market is further bolstered by a “million-dollar trump card”: the Gold Coast Vung Tau international tourism city.

Gold Coast Vung Tau, with its well-developed infrastructure and long-term planning vision, has created a strong market pull.
Anticipating the planning wave, Gold Coast Vung Tau spans nearly 5km of frontage along Highway 68, a location likened to a gold mine at the heart of regional connectivity. It is not only an ideal place to live but also deemed a “land of potential” for investment due to its clear legal framework, intelligent planning, and sustainable price appreciation prospects.
As early as March this year, thousands of brokers and investors flocked to seize opportunities in the project’s first subdivision, named Limassol, creating a bustling scene rarely seen in today’s increasingly selective and stringent market.
The allure of Gold Coast Vung Tau lies not only in its commercial potential but also in its ability to reap dual benefits from logistics and coastal tourism infrastructure. The project is located near the Cai Mep international port cluster, which will play an increasingly significant role in the global supply chain, and it is also just a few minutes away from Vung Tau beach, a familiar tourist destination for millions of visitors annually.
In the eyes of investors, this is the “golden” moment to ride the infrastructure wave, especially as new roads and infrastructure are set to be completed by the end of this year. With attractive starting prices and exceptional growth potential, many experts anticipate Gold Coast Vung Tau to double or even triple in value in the next few years.

Hundreds of guests gathered at the “Super City Investment – Launchpad from Financial Solutions” event hosted by Gold Coast Holdings on June 21st.
Amidst the ever-evolving infrastructure landscape, success will belong to those who recognize trends before the market realizes the true value. Gold Coast Vung Tau is at that juncture – a unique project emerging at the intersection of regional strategy and market demands.
