Nice, quiet resort on Phu Quoc with comfortable bungalows (the beachfront ones are best), a beautiful, uncrowded beach, and mostly very friendly staff. Breakfast was mediocre but included a small Western buffet and a few à la carte Vietnamese options.
We stayed about 10 days and had to switch bungalows midway. Unfortunately, my husband became extremely ill the night before the move. In the morning, the front desk insisted we check out at 12pm unless we paid 500k VND for late checkout and said we couldn’t access the new room until 2pm, even after I explained we were current guests, and my husband was extremely sick and sleeping between bouts of violent vomiting. They suggested he wait on a beach chair for two hours, even though there was no way housekeeping can clean all rooms at once.
Housekeeping, however, was absolutely wonderful. I went and spoke with them and explained our situation, they cleaned the new room as soon as the old guests checked out and let us move just before 1pm. As I was leaving the old bungalow, the front desk came over and complained that we had “gotten in the way” because “the new guests wanted to check in”. I politely reminded him that check-in was not until 2pm.
Most staff were lovely, but this situation left a bad impression and would make me hesitant to stay again.
