A First in 22 Years

After 22 years of developing eco-urban townships in northern Vietnam, Ecopark Group is launching its Forest Villa line for the first time - and the southern market is where it begins. Retreat Forest is the premium villa precinct at the heart of Eco Retreat's 56.2-hectare ecological core, surrounded on all sides by rivers, forests, and a central lake.

The Philosophy: Shinrinyoku - Forest Bathing

Retreat Forest is grounded in the science of Shinrinyoku - the famous Japanese practice of forest bathing, clinically proven to reduce stress, strengthen the immune system, and restore mental energy through simple immersion in a natural forest environment.

Every design decision in Retreat Forest flows from that philosophy: the forest is home. Villas do not stand in isolation - they nestle beneath the canopy of 24 themed gardens spanning 135,000m² in total, where natural light, forest fragrance, and the sound of wind become part of everyday life.

Location

Eco Retreat is located in Ben Luc, Long An - one of the fastest-growing urban corridors west of Ho Chi Minh City.

  • 30 minutes to Phu My Hung
  • 40 minutes to District 1 city center
  • 56.2-hectare ecological core with rivers, forest, and central lake
  • Only 32% building density - the rest is forest, water, and pathways for meditation walks, jogging, and cycling

All villas are designed across 23 three-storey templates, with 18 templates featuring a private experience floor (basement) - a space residents can transform into a wine cellar, a private retreat spa, an art room, or a personal meditation corner.

The architecture follows a contemporary tropical approach - sloping roofs, natural materials, maximised natural ventilation and sunlight, reminiscent of lakeside homes in Bali or Phuket.

Amenities

Retreat Forest is wrapped in 24 themed gardens - each one not just a landscape feature but a community living space that brings residents together around a shared love of nature.

Premium amenities reserved for residents:

  • Wellness spa and natural mineral pool
  • Luxury clubhouse
  • Detox retreat zone
  • Lakeside yoga
  • Forest meditation trails, running paths, and cycling routes

Inside the model villa, the interior design prioritises open-plan spaces that connect continuously with the forest garden outside through large glass walls, bringing nature into every sightline.
