A 55-hectare Ecopark eco-township on Dai Phuoc island (formerly Nhon Trach district, Dong Nai), about 18 km from central Ho Chi Minh City
EcoVillage Saigon River (the market also commonly writes it as Eco Village Saigon River) is a 55-hectare eco-township developed by Ecopark in Ben Co hamlet, Dai Phuoc commune, Dong Nai province — an area previously part of Nhon Trach district — about 18 km from the centre of District 1, Ho Chi Minh City. The site was originally the Six Senses Saigon River eco-tourism township, which Ecopark repositioned and brought to the southern market in 2023. The clearest signature of the project is its low building density — around 15% — together with more than 32 ha of water surface announced by the developer, wrapping around and weaving between the subdivisions. Ecopark also promotes a "seven layers of nature" planting model for the project, developed with international landscape planning firm LJ-ASIA.
Every product here is low-rise and attached to land, with long-term ownership: townhouses, shophouses, semi-detached villas and riverside detached villas, totalling roughly 668–680 units according to distributor sites. The project is rolled out subdivision by subdivision: The Riverwalk (riverside townhouses of 70–101 sqm), Blue Forest (about 14 ha, 287 townhouses and villas, launched in May 2024), Onsen (villas tied to the hot-mineral complex) and the Central Park area; later subdivisions also include a smaller townhouse line of about 54.96 – 66 sqm. Indicative pricing aggregated from market data sites (updated September 2025) ranges from about 91 to 177.8 million VND per sqm depending on the subdivision and the position of the lot. Translated into per-unit figures: The Riverwalk townhouses of 70–101 sqm from about VND 8.8 billion; riverside semi-detached villas of 198–230 sqm at about VND 25–32 billion; Onsen semi-detached villas of 240–260 sqm at about VND 26–33 billion; riverside detached villas of 360–420 sqm at about VND 45–58 billion. Distributor sites publish noticeably different ranges, so these are reference levels only. The headline amenities are the Onsen hot-mineral area of about 5,500 sqm, a wellness centre, three clubhouses and a riverside park of about 4 ha. On progress, The Riverwalk has been handing over since Q1/2025; the following subdivisions are handed over in phases, with some agents citing Q3/2026 — a date that should be re-confirmed with the developer.
**About the developer.** Ecopark — Ecopark Group Joint Stock Company — is the name behind the Ecopark township in Hung Yen and Eco Central Park in Vinh, and has for years ranked among Vietnam's most reputable property developers, including an International Property Awards win in the landscape category. EcoVillage Saigon River is the first project marking the group's move south, with Ecopark acting as founder and developer, while the legal entity directly implementing the project is Hai Dung Company Limited.
**Who is it for?** The project targets owner-occupiers looking for a second home or a resort-style residence close to Ho Chi Minh City, families who prioritise greenery, river frontage and low population density, and long-term investors betting on infrastructure in the eastern corridor. After Nhon Trach Bridge on HCMC Ring Road 3 opened to traffic on 20 August 2025, and once Long Thanh Airport begins operating, connectivity for Dai Phuoc island improves markedly. On the other hand, this is not the right choice for buyers who need immediate rental cash flow, or whose budget sits below the entry level of roughly VND 8.8 billion per unit.
Because the project is sold in successive phases and each subdivision carries its own discount and interest-support policy, the prices published online are often already out of step with the actual inventory. **Contact Happy Land for the original price list, the units still available in each subdivision, the payment policy currently in force and a show-house viewing appointment.** The Happy Land team also assists with legal due diligence and with checking the foreign ownership quota before you sign a contract.
📍 Dai Phuoc commune (formerly Nhon Trach district), Dong Nai
Eco Village Saigon River (the official name is written as one word: EcoVillage Saigon River) sits in Ben Co hamlet, Dai Phuoc commune, Dong Nai province — an area the market still knows by its old name, Nhon Trach district. Under Resolution 1662/NQ-UBTVQH15 dated 16 June 2025 (effective 1 July 2025), the former communes of Phu Huu, Phu Dong, Phuoc Khanh and Dai Phuoc in Nhon Trach district were reorganised into the new Dai Phuoc commune under Dong Nai province, so the current administrative address no longer includes a district level. The project stands on Dai Phuoc island, encircled by the Saigon – Dong Nai – Soai Rap river system, about 18 km from Notre Dame Cathedral in District 1, Ho Chi Minh City. It is a rare position: very close to the core of Ho Chi Minh City while retaining the character of a river landscape and a low residential density. On transport, the area has just passed an important milestone: Nhon Trach Bridge — the largest bridge on the HCMC Ring Road 3 route — officially opened to traffic on 20 August 2025, connecting Nhon Trach directly with Thu Duc City and reducing dependence on the Cat Lai ferry. From here residents can reach the HCMC – Long Thanh – Dau Giay Expressway, Long Thanh International Airport and the Nhon Trach industrial parks within a short radius. There is also a waterway route to Bach Dang Wharf in District 1. The same island already hosts the 18-hole, 84-hectare Emerald Country Club golf course along with several existing townships, giving the area an established base of amenities and community.

This is a low-rise, land-attached housing project, so the 30% cap that applies to apartment buildings does not apply here. Under the 2023 Law on Housing and Decree 95/2024/ND-CP (effective 1 August 2024), foreign individuals and organisations may own landed houses (villas, terraced houses) only within commercial housing projects located outside areas that require national defence and security safeguards, subject to a ceiling of 250 houses within an area whose population is equivalent to one ward. Where an area contains two or more projects, the number of landed houses foreigners may own must not exceed 10% of the total landed houses in each project, and no more than 250 houses in total. The maximum ownership term is 50 years, with extension considered in accordance with the regulations. Before placing a deposit, foreign buyers should ask the developer for written confirmation that the project is eligible for sale to foreigners, together with the list of units still within the quota.
