Sometimes, Peter Ryder just has to pinch himself. Like the time when he was overlooking the pool from his villa nestled in the opulent Four Seasons Resort The Nam Hai. Sprawled over 30 hectares of stunning, unspoiled beachfront along the shores of Vietnam’s Hoi An Beach, The Nam Hai is just one of the iconic developments built by Indochina Capital.
This one is a particular favourite for its CEO, which is unsurprising given that as recently as last year, it was voted by the TTG Travel Awards 2019 as the Best Beach Resort Worldwide. It’s just another gong to add to the collection since it opened in 2006, and was shortly thereafter named the world’s Best Designed Resort by Travel + Leisure (2008).
“I was sitting looking over the swimming pool, out at the ocean and I thought, ‘Oh my God, did this really happen?’” Peter reflects, “Seizing the opportunity to create something spectacular along one of the world’s most stunning coastlines, nearly a kilometre of beach, with nothing else around it, just absolute beauty.”
It certainly did happen, as did Indochina Capital’s other iconic developments including the Six Senses Resort Con Dao, Hyatt Regency Danang, Montgomerie Links Vietnam, Indochina Plaza Hanoi and Indochina Riverside Towers. More recently, the company launched Vietnam’s first major lifestyle hospitality chain, Wink Hotels, a new concept for Vietnam aimed primarily at the dynamic domestic market.
Not bad for an archaeologist come anthropologist come businessman who lobbed into Vietnam for just a week nearly 29 years ago.
