HAUS Unveils HAUS Da Lat, Its Pioneering ESG-Focused Lifestyle Development in Vietnam
Vietnam, one of Asia’s fastest-growing economies, has drawn global attention with sustained GDP expansion, rising foreign direct investment, rapid infrastructure development, and a growing affluent population. Supported by strong economic fundamentals, a stable political environment, and ongoing urbanisation, the country is undergoing a transformation across key sectors including tourism, hospitality, and real estate. As Vietnam’s global profile rises, demand for luxury lifestyle properties and destination-led developments has accelerated, attracting discerning residents as well as regional and international investors seeking future-ready developments that integrate sustainability, governance, and long-term resilience alongside strategic financial returns.
Within this context, HAUS, emerges as a new benchmark for Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG)-led, destination-driven real estate in Vietnam. HAUS unveils HAUS Da Lat, its first development in the centre of Da Lat, Lam Dong Province, introducing a new model of integrated luxury real estate that combines wellness, culture, hospitality, and residential living within a single destination.
On 7 November 2026, HAUS Da Lat will mark this milestone with a landmark invite-only Grand Opening Ceremony, bringing together a distinguished gathering of international personalities for a curated celebration of art, architecture, music and hospitality, culminating in an exclusive performance by legendary Italian tenor M° Andrea Bocelli. Alongside HAUS Da Lat, HAUS is moving full speed ahead with the deployment of Coastal Quang Ngai – A Community by HAUS, an ambitious net-zero development within Quang Ngai Province.
HAUS Da Lat: A New Benchmark For ESG-Led Destination
The 5-hectare development, HAUS Da Lat comprises 68 Sky Villas and Sky Mansions, a commercial centre, and a five-star resort. With equity participation from international investors BTS Bernina Private Equity Fund and Terne Holdings Singapore, HAUS Da Lat is a high-value, future-ready asset within Vietnam’s rapidly evolving premium real estate landscape.
Further reinforcing HAUS Da Lat’s position within Vietnam’s evolving luxury real estate landscape, the development was recently honoured with four national-level wins at the International Property Awards 2026, widely regarded as the “Oscars” of the real estate industry. In its first year of participation, the project received recognition across all four submitted categories, including Vietnam’s Best Landscape Architecture Project, Best Model Interior Design Project, Best Residential Development, and Best Living Space Development. Two winning categories — Landscape Architecture and Model Interior Design — will also go on to represent Vietnam at the Asia Pacific Property Awards, underscoring HAUS Da Lat’s internationally recognised approach to sustainability, culture, wellness, and design excellence.
Sustainability underpins every aspect of HAUS Da Lat, developed in line with rigorous ESG principles and guided by a long-term vision that preserves local culture and natural ecosystems while advancing toward Net Zero ambitions. Energy-efficient materials, waste-to-energy systems, and closed-loop waste management reduce environmental impact and carbon emissions by approximately 50 to 70 percent, turning traditionally discarded resources into valuable energy. Indoor air and water quality are also treated as core priorities, with advanced purification systems delivering clean, oxygen-rich air and spring-like water throughout the development.
This focus is reinforced by the appointment of Chairman of the Board for HAUS, Michael Sheren, a former senior adviser at the Bank of England and an international expert in green finance and climate-related initiatives, with extensive involvement in ESG-driven frameworks and strategies. With over 25 years of experience in global capital markets and leadership roles across initiatives including the Banking Environment Initiative, UNDP Sustainable Finance Hub, and G20 Sustainable Finance Study Group, Sheren brings deep expertise to guide HAUS’s corporate governance foundations, advance green finance initiatives, and promote sustainable development, supporting the project’s ESG-driven vision, and reinforcing HAUS Da Lat’s vision of a living environment where nature, architecture, and human wellbeing exist in lasting balance.
Reflecting on the international recognition the project has received, Michael Sheren, Chairman of the Board for HAUS, shared:
“The recognition is a testament to the power of visionary collaboration and shared values. We have been privileged to work alongside world-leading partners in their respective fields, each bringing an extraordinary level of creativity, and craftsmanship to the project. Together, we set out to create more than a destination. At HAUS Da Lat, we sought to create a place where heritage, nature, wellbeing and community are not treated as separate ideas but woven together into one living experience that can endure across generations.”
Global Design and Strategic Partnerships
Representing a new class of premium assets, the property is a culmination of collaborations with leading global brands, with the design brought to life by legendary architect Kengo Kuma, founder of Kengo Kuma & Associates, whose designs draw inspiration from Da Lat’s pine forests, translating natural forms into the 68 Sky Villas and Sky Mansions. Complementing the architecture, Isometrix Lighting + Design and 1508 London deliver interior and lighting solutions that integrate sustainability with aesthetic and functional excellence, ensuring the properties maintain both durable capital return and lifestyle appeal.
Resort offerings anchor the investment potential, with the five-star resort providing amenities including high-end dining, wellness and therapy facilities, indoor four-season pools, and conference spaces — driving strong tourism and rental income opportunities. Within it is 1010 Origin, the founding chapter of 1010 — Vietnam’s first social club. At 1010, the calibre of the membership — who is in the room, and why they were chosen — is the club’s defining asset. Membership is curated and internationally minded, with bespoke care, in-residence hospitality, and rare vintages. 1010 sets a new benchmark in the region — one that values legacy and generational relevance over rapid growth, and meaningful connection over broad acquisition. Opening first in the highlands of Da Lạt, 1010 Origin is the home of membership and the highest room in the ecosystem — the founding chapter of a wider platform, with the flagship in Hà Nội (2027) and Ho Chi Minh City to follow.
The HAUS Wellness Center by Chiva-Som, spanning 6,800 square metres and offering 200 treatment programmes, further positions the development as a global wellness destination, enhancing its continued appeal for both investors and high-net-worth residents.
Beyond its residences and hospitality offerings, HAUS Da Lat is envisioned as a fully immersive creative and cultural destination. The development is home to Vietnam’s first Open-Air Museum and Da Lat’s largest Pine Forest Preservation Project with installations and experiences positioning Da Lat as a global destination for art and culture, and inviting quiet dialogues with nature. The HAUS Mall also stands as a new icon of retail and entertainment. Designed to host flagship stores of the world’s leading brands, the mall offers an unparalleled retail journey. Each visit transports visitors into a realm of pure elegance, where luxury isn’t just experienced, but is felt.
Curated Sanctuaries Inspired By The Rhythms Of Nature
HAUS Residences form the private living heart of HAUS Da Lat, featuring a series of sanctuaries inspired by a natural phenomenon found in Da Lat’s highlands. Each Sky Villa and Sky Mansion translates the rhythms of light, air, and landscape into architecture and everyday living, with interiors and curated art by leading names including Christophe Delcourt and David Gill Gallery.
In the cool mountain air of Da Lat, the Ray Sky Villas and Sky Mansions celebrate the quiet power of sunlight. Designed to capture the first golden rays of dawn, these residences are defined by expansive windows, airy layouts and warm toned infused interiors, that allow light to pour in and air to circulate freely, gently awakening each space as the day begins. As sunrise transforms the surrounding hills and forests, the landscape becomes an ever-changing extension of the home, creating an atmosphere that feels both energising and grounded.
Dew captures the serene beauty of early morning. These Sky Villas and Sky Mansions are designed as tranquil retreats with soft pastel hues, organic textures, sustainably sourced materials, and flowing water features that echo nature’s gentle touch and evoke freshness, renewal, and calm. Alternatively, Mist embodies balance and understated luxury, echoing the quiet grace of the mystical veil where the city rests. A refined palette of soft greys, silvers, and whites is paired with translucent finishes that diffuse light, bathing interiors in a dreamlike glow whilst expansive windows invite the mist to drift past, creating moments of stillness and reflection throughout the day.
Haven is envisioned as a personal refuge. Designed for those who seek a respite from the outside world, Haven residences prioritise a sense of warmth, protection, and rejuvenation. The retreat-like layouts, soft lighting, and comforting materials come together to form a sanctuary where one can slow down, find solace and recharge. Lumen is defined by clarity, illumination, and a bright, uplifting environment. These Sky Villas and Sky Mansions are designed to feel open, uplifting, and effortlessly contemporary. A minimalist yet modern aesthetic with subtle design details and clean architectural lines reflect an underlying commitment to sustainability and innovation.
Derived from the ancient Greek concept of “Elysium”, a paradise or idealised afterlife for heroes, the Elysian Sky Villas and Sky Mansions evoke a sense of refined luxury, exclusivity and beauty. Offering an almost otherworldly experience, raw yet tactile materials are balanced with elegant finishes, creating interiors that feel both grounded and ethereal. It appeals to those who seek an elevated, almost dreamlike living experience and residents who value the notion of “Live in your own paradise. Where luxury meets serenity.”
Coastal Quang Ngai – A Community by HAUS
Expanding HAUS’ vision, Coastal Quang Ngai – A Community by HAUS spans nearly 94 hectares in Tu Nghia Commune, Quang Ngai Province and is envisioned as an ambitious net-zero ecological development designed to accommodate 4,000 residents. The masterplan is developed in collaboration with Sweco, one of Europe’s leading experts in sustainable infrastructure planning, whose approach is grounded in extensive environmental analysis to optimise natural resources, integrate renewable energy systems, and deliver efficient, future-ready urban solutions. Alongside Sweco, the development brings together an international collective of leading design visionaries. Giò Forma, renowned masters of experiential and exhibition design in Italy, are conceptualising a one-of-a-kind 12,000-square-metre Design Exhibition dedicated to cultural programming and global-scale events. From Shanghai, 100Architects, celebrated for their immersive and interactive environments — are shaping the 6,800-square-metre Coastal Discovery Park, designed to spark curiosity, imagination, and community engagement. Complementing the masterplan is SHMA, one of Asia’s leading landscape design studios, responsible for the project’s expansive landscape strategy.
The township prioritises sustainability through renewable energy systems, climate-responsive architecture, and the use of locally sourced and reclaimed materials. Thoughtfully planned green corridors, blue infrastructure, and microclimate-responsive design promote biodiversity, thermal comfort, and resilient urban living. As part of this holistic vision, the Coastal Quang Ngai Wellness Beach Villas are thoughtfully designed to support a lifestyle of proactive wellness, where water, lush greenery, abundant natural light, refreshing ocean breezes, and an integrated wellness ecosystem become part of everyday living, helping residents restore energy, cultivate mind-body balance, and enhance long-term well-being. Anchored by terraced townhouses, villas, and a central community hub, Coastal Quang Ngai – A Community by HAUS exemplifies a future-ready, ESG-driven urban model, creating a dynamic, vibrant community while enhancing the region’s environmental stewardship.
