Soaring Demand in Northern Vietnam’s Tourism Hub
Northern Vietnam’s tourism sector experienced a vibrant summer in 2025, with Cat Ba Island emerging as a top destination. A report from Haiphong’s Tourism Department highlights impressive figures: during the peak season, Cat Ba welcomed nearly 2 million visitors, marking a significant surge compared to the previous year. This tourism boom is fueled by the island’s UNESCO World Heritage Site status and improved transportation infrastructure, which has positively impacted accommodation demand.
According to the Vietnam Real Estate Association (VARS) Q2/2025 market report, beachfront resorts in Northern Vietnam achieved an average occupancy rate of 75-80% on weekends. Cat Ba, however, consistently outperformed the market, with demand exceeding supply. Notably, the 4-5 star hotel and resort segment, despite its professional management and high-quality offerings, remains insufficient to meet the growing demand.
100% Occupancy Rate Achieved
Amid this landscape, Flamingo Cat Ba Resorts stands out as a benchmark for success. During the 2025 summer peak, the resort consistently recorded a 100% occupancy rate on weekends and holidays, surpassing market averages. In the fiercely competitive hospitality industry, this achievement reflects the resort’s exceptional appeal and quality, as endorsed by hundreds of thousands of guests.
Maintaining such high occupancy during the most competitive period underscores the resort’s sustainable strengths—a critical factor for investors. This success is no coincidence but the result of robust foundational elements.
The Pillars of Success
Flamingo Cat Ba Resorts’ remarkable performance rests on three interconnected pillars.
First, its location within a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the region’s advanced infrastructure provide a unique advantage. Situated in the heart of a globally recognized natural wonder, the resort offers unparalleled exclusivity due to limited development land. This value is amplified by major infrastructure projects like the Hanoi-Haiphong Expressway and the Tan Vu-Lach Huyen Bridge, reducing travel time from Hanoi to just 2 hours, making Cat Ba an ideal weekend getaway and driving consistent demand.
The unique “Forest in the Sky” architecture is a key feature of the resort’s 160-experience ecosystem, attracting diverse guest segments.
Second, the resort’s all-in-one hospitality ecosystem caters to a wide range of guests. With over 160 experiences, Flamingo Cat Ba Resorts appeals to families, couples, and corporate groups alike. This diversity maximizes occupancy, extends guest stays, and increases average spending, all critical to revenue growth.
Lastly, the resort’s success is backed by Flamingo Holdings’ nearly 30 years of expertise and over 300 prestigious awards. This professional management ensures the resort’s potential translates into tangible, impressive results.
From Full Occupancy to Stable Investor Returns
Today’s hospitality real estate investors prioritize assets generating consistent monthly income. In this context, high occupancy rates are a key indicator of a property’s potential and health.
Flamingo Cat Ba Resorts’ 100% occupancy rate demonstrates its ability to deliver stable, long-term returns, aligning with current investment priorities. Unlike projects offering only paper promises, this resort provides proven performance data, minimizing risks associated with project delivery and customer attraction.
