The provincial People’s Committee decided on Monday it would make the Hoi An Beach Resort, located on Cua Dai Street in Hoi An City, a quarantine camp for foreigners in the province.
This is a four-star resort with 121 rooms with views over Cua Dai Beach and a nearby river, along with swimming pools and high-quality service.
Foreigners who are required to be quarantined will receive free-of-charge meals and medical care at the facility.

They will also be provided with assistance in visa procedures, flight ticket booking, and airport shuttles after their isolation period.
“They came here to visit our country and only wanted a blissful vacation, but the epidemic has caused them a lot of damage. This is how we should support them,” Quang Nam chairman Le Tri Thanh remarked.
Vice-chairman Tran Van Tan expressed a similar opinion, adding that it is “our responsibility to help them in order to maintain the image of the people in Quang Nam.”

International visitors have played an important role in the province’s development, so it is only appropriate that local authorities take good care of them during this time, Tan elaborated.
Previously, some people had raised questions as to why Vietnamese citizens do not enjoy such special treatment compared to foreigners regarding quarantine facilities in the province.
