Lovely spacious villa with pool just outside our door. This resort could easily be 5 star with some extra TLC. The pathways need some maintenance. The gardeners need some modern equipment like edgers and metal brushes to clean the pools. The breakfast was nice. Fruit spectacular. The beach is quite dirty, like most of the beaches in Phu Quoc. The resort is about 10 mins drive from the town centre, which is a good thing! Town centre reminded me of Bali 20 years ago!

This is by no means a 5 star resort. I dont like to moan but this was our 4th 5 star hotel throughout Vietnam and does not compare to any of the others. Breakfast was basic, no speciality coffees offered, place needed redoing etc cracks in walls, mold on tiles, paint chipping everywhere. The private beach is barely a beach, and half of it is covered in litter and whole dead rotting fishes. Hotel is not busy but yet still have to wait 15 mins to get served at pool bar due to one member of staff. No waiters offering drinks either. However the restaurent food for dinner that was a la carte was lively and so were the staff in there. I think this appears to be a poor management/owner issue not the staff.

Run down hotel, room lack of amenities, beach not swimable, service snail pace, luxury villa- not true only nice about the villa were spacious and private swimming pool.

Overall very god, but no service in the reataurant in the evening. Bungalow and breakfast was very good😀

Good breakfast and nice room and view. Slow service in the restaurant.

Everything good

The resort is tired and needs a really big renovation. Loungers are breaking, and the water sports equipment is broken and they are not replacing it so there are literally no activities in the resort at all. Bathrooms are tired and not very clean. Outdoor furniture by the rooms have no cushions so too uncomfortable to be sat on. They won’t even give you an iron and want to charge for everything. Staff are friendly but need training. We ordered the kids two spag bowls one night and one arrived and the other took another 40 mins to arrive. Restaurant and resort is a bit soulless with little atmosphere. Breakfast buffet is ok. They offer an airport shuttle but apparently it was fully booked when we tried to book it. The location isn’t great - you have to order a taxi or grab to go anywhere. Nothing is in walking distance of the resort. The private beach is so small, you can’t fit a lounger on there and it disappears at high tide. This place is definitely not 4 star!!

Friendly staff, pool and beach front was nice resort living

No hot water, staff extremely arrogant, room not properly cleaned. There are a lot of similar situations if you read google reviews. Wouldn’t call this a 5-star resort

The Shell Resort & Spa Phu Quoc did not live up to its 5-star rating during my stay. Even with a premium ocean-view room booked months ahead and also arranged an airport pickup, so the resort knew exactly when we would arrive and should have had the room prepared. The room was not properly cleaned or maintained—hair everywhere, stained outdoor furniture, a cracked tub, and outdated interiors. It took far too long to reach a manager, and when I finally did. The manager on duty mentioned that all ocean-view rooms had similar wear and tear. He offered me a villa room—which was actually cheaper than what I had originally paid—and two spa vouchers. At that point I accepted the offer because I didn’t want to deal with more back-and-forth, but it still didn’t make up for the higher price I paid (over $100 USD per night for a 4-night stay). If the resort is aging, it should adjust its star rating or renovate to match the standards of a true 5-star property. I recommend renovations, including fresh paint, power washing, and updated interiors. To be honest, if the rooms and facilities are this run down, the resort should reconsider its 5-star rating. Google AI’s definition of “5-star” reflects top-tier luxury, exceptional quality, and proactive service, and this resort did not meet those expectations. That said, the pool, breakfast, transportation, and room service were great. — AT
