Westin Headed to Vietnam in 2012

Big news from Westin: Starwood announced today that it they've come to an agreement with a real estate development company to build a 330-room Westin Hotel on the southeastern coast of Vietnam.

Westin's first Vietnam property (Starwood's got a total of 15 hotels under different brands in the Thailand and Indochina region already, so they're no strangers to the area), the planned hotel is slated to open in 2012 on a beachfront in Cam Ranh Bay, Khanh Hoa Province.

For those not up on their Vietnam geography, a bit more info about the location from the press release:

Cam Ranh Bay is a protected inlet off the South China Sea situated between Phan Rang and Nha Trang, approximately 290 kilometers northeast of Ho Chi Minh City. It is well-known for its white sandy beaches and pristine turquoise waters. The site features an extensive beach frontage of 550 meters. The Westin resort is approximately a 10-minute drive from Cam Ranh airport and a 40-minute drive to the Nha Trang city center, the capital of Khanh Hoa Province.

In terms of amenities and such, we can expect eight (yes, eight) food and beverage outlets, a health club, swimming pools, a spa, Westin Kid’s Club, business center and a retail shop.

Also worth noting because it's Friday: the name of the real estate development corporation working with Starwood on this property is called "Phat Dat Real Estate." Dat's phat.
