Cam Chau

Hoi An's central residential ward between Ancient Town and the beaches, a flat-cycling expat favourite edged by rice fields.

About Cam Chau

Cam Chau occupies the sweet spot of Hoi An geography, sitting between the lantern-lit Ancient Town and the Cua Dai and An Bang beaches, with rice paddies and the Thu Bon river softening its edges. Flat lanes make cycling the natural way to get around, and the ward's quiet residential streets, cafes and schools have long made it the go-to base for resident expats and families. That liveability translates into steady rental and resale demand, the strongest everyday fundamentals in the Hoi An market. The catch is ownership structure: Cam Chau's stock is dominated by land-based houses and townhouses, and Vietnam's rules restrict foreigners to 50-year renewable titles, a 30% cap per apartment building and limited house quotas per ward. Foreign investors should confirm eligibility on any specific property and lean toward quota-compliant condos or licensed developments to avoid title complications.
