Phan Thiet joins time-share network

VietNamNet Bridge - Rang Dong Group, which owns the Sea Links Gold&Country Club in Phan Thiet, central coast Binh Thuan Province on Wednesday joined the RCI network, the global leader in time-share vacation exchange.

"Gaining access to the four million leisure-bound members will be valuable for our resort, and I believe our professional service, as well as the stunning landscapes in Phan Thiet will provide an unforgettable experience for guests," Nguyen Van Thieu, Rang Dong vice chairman, said.

"This relation is historic for RCI as the Club is our first affiliate in Viet Nam, and we’re thrilled to welcome this beautiful resort to the collection of top vacation destinations we offer to our members," Geoff Ballotti, president of Group RCI, said.

The tie-up will enable the Club’s time-share owners to spend their holidays at other RCI destinations.

On the same day, Rang Dong Group also concluded a contract with the Sai Gon Phuong Nam Property Corp, or Sapro, for the latter to manage and market its time-share programme.

The programme offers a week’s lease of a villa every year for 20 years at Sea Links, where more than 300 villas are set to be finished by year-end. It costs around US$15,000.

Sea Links also has an 18-hole golf court already in operation, tennis courts and a five-star hotel.

They say "

“I can’t say what made me fall in love with Vietnam - that a woman’s voice can drug you; that everything is so intense. The colors, the taste, even the rain. Nothing like the filthy rain in London. They say whatever you’re looking for, you will find here. They say you come to Vietnam and you understand a lot in a few minutes, but the rest has got to be lived. The smell: that’s the first thing that hits you, promising everything in exchange for your soul. And the heat. Your shirt is straightaway a rag. You can hardly remember your name, or what you came to escape from. But at night, there’s a breeze. The river is beautiful. You could be forgiven for thinking there was no war; that the gunshots were fireworks; that only pleasure matters. A pipe of opium, or the touch of a girl who might tell you she loves you. And then, something happens, as you knew it would. And nothing can ever be the same again.”

Tips on Travel to Vietnam

It's always warm in Southeast Asia apart from high mountains, so leave the heavy clothing at home. Cotton and breathable fabrics are always better than synthetics -- although cotton does wrinkle a lot when traveling! December through April is roughly the dry season in that region, although it can still rain a little. December is a good time to go in terms of temperature -- cooler than in the humid summertime. Either way, wearing more clothing (shirt sleeves and long pants) is always more respectful towards the Asian culture, especially when visiting temples and rural areas.
