Mr. Albert Lafuente has been appointed as
director of sales and marketing at the Nam Hai resort in Vietnam.
Lafuente, a Philippine national, has a wealth of experience gained
by years of association with both independent and chain
properties. He was most recently the director of business
development at Shangri-La’s regional sales office in Singapore.
At The Nam Hai, Lafuente is tasked with
developing new markets to complement the resort’s existing
long-haul wholesale business.
“With a
new terminal at Danang International Airport scheduled to open by
end of year and a second designer golf course (Greg Norman’s Dunes
Course at Danang Golf Club) nearing completion, this area has the
potential to be Asia’s next great getaway,” said Herbert
Laubichler-Pichler, The Nam Hai’s general manager. “Albert’s
knowledge of the hotel industry and Asia-Pacific tourism habits
enables us to really capitalize on what’s transpiring here.”
The Nam Hai is located on 35 hectares of landscaped
tropical gardens just steps from the East Sea and within 10
minutes’ drive of Hoi An, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Signature features of the property — which is owned by Indochina
Land and managed by GHM — include 100 architecturally singular
villas; two gourmet restaurants; a tropical spa beside a lagoon;
and three beachfront swimming pools.
