Has PGA NovaWorld Phan Thiet chosen the right hotel partner?


By: September 29, 2022


Vietnam’s newest premier lifestyle resort, PGA NovaWorld Phan Thiet, continues to reach new heights with the launch of a state-of-the-art luxury hotel – Radisson Resort Phan Thiet.

It is fascinating that luxury hotels do not have an official definition. Often 4 or 5-star hotels describe themselves as ‘luxury’. Among the Radisson hotel brands,

  • Radisson Collection (since 2014; for younger luxury travelers?) and Radisson Blu are positioned as luxury/upper upscale.
  • The “regular” Radisson brand is positioned as an upscale hotel brand.

Would you compare any of Radisson’s luxury brands to W Hotels, Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons, Mandarin Oriental Hotels, Fairmont, etc.? Certainly, I would not.

Depending on the positioning of the PGA NovaWorld Phan Thiet brand, I would select my hotel partner. Based on their choice it is more a premium brand and not a luxury brand.

It is totally OK. However, it is bold to set reasonable expectations to avoid disappointments.

Radisson Resort Phan Thiet – bespoke domestic golf package

Golfers can now take advantage of a new bespoke domestic golf package, launched in partnership with Radisson Resort Phan Thiet, that features

  • one-night accommodation with breakfast,
  • a complimentary round of golf including a caddie and buggy hire service, as well as
  • a set lunch or dinner in the venue’s contemporary Clubhouse Sports Bar.

Andrew Bowles, Nova Golf Clubs – Managing Director, commented:

“The introduction of new quality lifestyle and leisure facilities at the resort such as the Radisson Resort Phan Thiet only helps to continue showcasing why PGA NovaWorld Phan Thiet will become one of Asia’s leading golfing destinations.”

In recent months, the resort has announced plans to develop a number of new sporting venues alongside PGA NovaWorld Phan Thiet for guests to explore, including numerous international F&B brands, NovaWorld Sports Complex, and Circus Land.
