In 2026, Elyse Island is emerging as one of the most significant luxury real estate developments in the “Eastern Gateway” of Ho Chi Minh City. Developed by Nam Long Group in partnership with Japan’s Nishi-Nippon Railroad, it is a high-end ecological urban area located on Dai Phuoc Island (Nhon Trạch, Dong Nai).
Here is the current status and outlook for Elyse Island as of early 2026:
– Major 2026 Milestones
2026 is considered a “golden year” for the project due to several infrastructure completions:
- The Nhon Trach Bridge & Ring Road 3: Scheduled to open in 2026, these will drastically reduce travel time to Thu Duc City and central HCMC to approximately 15–20 minutes.
- Long Thành International Airport: The airport is expected to begin commercial operations in 2026, positioning Elyse Island as a primary residential hub for aviation professionals and international experts.
- Elyse Clubhouse Opening: The project’s signature 2-hectare clubhouse officially opened in January 2026, featuring a marina, tennis courts, and a specialized Onsen Spa with minerals imported from Japan.
