Nha Trang resort blocking sea view being dismantled

The Evason Ana Mandara resort, which runs 400 m long along the beach, was built in 1995.

Last June Khanh Hoa Province authorities decided to take back the 38,000 m2 on which it is situated for public use.

Some buildings in the resort have had their roofs dismantled. The investor said the demolition process is being hastened.

In 2021 the Khanh Hoa People's Committee approved lease of land in Cam Ranh Town by the developer to build a new resort. Now, after several delays, the resort is being dismantled and will be moved to the new location in Cam Ranh.

Nguyen Tan Tuan, chairman of Khanh Hoa, said authorities would consider which portions of the land to use.

A section of the resort has been razed to the ground.

Roof tiles dismantled from buildings will be taken away for use elsewhere.

A wall on Tran Phu Street was knocked down last August.

A worker said some of the trees and plants on the property would be left for future use while others would be sold.

Khanh Hoa authorities have begun a makeover of Tran Phu Street since some resorts blocked the view of the sea and paths leading to the water. Some other structures have also been dismantled and the space has been returned to the community.

In February the People's Committee urged the Ministry of Public Security to relocate its Hotel 378.
