Two EAM Appointments at Alma Resort in Cam Ranh, Vietnam

The Alma resort in Cam Ranh, Vietnam, has appointed Vu Thi Huong Giang as Executive Assistant Manager of F&B and Tran Quoc Dat as Executive Assistant Manager.

Born and bred in nearby Nha Trang, Giang graduated from Nha Trang University with a major in food processing and started her career in 2004 as a waitress at Six Senses Ninh Van Bay, where she steadily climbed the career ladder over a decade to become a food and beverage manager.

Giang has also worked for Vinpearl Land and Mia Resort in Nha Trang, and was the F&B director at The Anam, also situated on Cam Ranh peninsula, for two years before joining Alma.

“Sixteen years ago I graduated from school to become a waitress and my parents were so unhappy they didn’t tell my relatives but hospitality was what I wanted to do and I was hungry to learn; I hope my story encourages others to consider a career in hospitality because despite the difficulties wrought by the global pandemic the industry will inevitably recover,” she said.

Dat, who was born in Hanoi, studied hotel operations at Hanoi Tourism College before graduating in 1997 to become a F&B attendant at the Sheraton Hanoi Hotel and Towers. He rose up the ranks with the Sofitel Plaza Hotel, Sunway Hotel Hanoi, Silk Path Hotel Hanoi, InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort, Hotel de l'Opera Hanoi - MGallery, Vinpearl Luxury Nha Trang Resort, and Lotte The Residence and Lotte Center Hanoi.

Before joining Alma, Dat was the Rooms Division Manager for Radisson Blu Resort Phu Quoc.

“Although I have 23 years of experience in hospitality, every day I see and learn new things and concepts and love to think outside of the box,” said Dat. “I want to ensure my department doesn’t just provide services but truly delivers on providing a ‘wow’ guest experience at our luxurious suites and pavilions that all offer spectacular views of the beach.”

The Alma features 580 suites and pavilions, 14 F&B outlets and a cascade of 12 beachfront swimming pools. Other drawing cards include a science museum, 6,000-square metre waterpark, 13-treatment room spa, art gallery, cinema, convention centre, amphitheatre, youth centre with virtual reality games, kid’s club, water sports centre, gymnasium and yoga room and an 18-hole putting green.
