Local Attractions

Three standout attractions are within easy reach of the hotel:

• Ong Lang Beach: Just a 10-minute drive from the property, this quiet, golden-sand beach is far less crowded than Phú Quốc’s popular south coast resorts. The calm, clear turquoise water is perfect for swimming, and the shaded shoreline is ideal for picnics or long sunset strolls. Local seafood shacks along the beach serve fresh grilled squid and coconut rice for just a few dollars.
• Phú Quốc National Park: A 30-minute drive inland, this UNESCO biosphere reserve covers more than half of the island, with winding hiking trails through dense tropical rainforest, cascading waterfalls, and opportunities to spot rare native wildlife like silver langurs and hornbills. The hotel’s paid walking tours can arrange a guided half-day trip here.
• Cửa Dương Fishing Village: Just 15 minutes from the hotel, this working traditional delta village lets visitors watch local fishermen bring in their daily catch at dawn, browse fresh seafood markets, and join a small boat tour through the nearby mangrove forests to learn about delta ecosystems.

Travel Tips

Book your stay well in advance, especially during the dry season (November to April), when Phú Quốc’s weather is most ideal for outdoor activities. The hotel can arrange private airport transfers from Phú Quốc International Airport, which is a 40-minute drive away. If you plan to explore the area independently, rent a motorbike for the duration of your stay—it’s the most flexible way to reach nearby beaches and villages. Don’t forget to try the hotel’s themed Vietnamese dinner nights, which feature regional Mekong specialties like canh chua (sour fish soup) and fresh tropical fruit. Lastly, pack lightweight, breathable clothing and reef-safe sunscreen for days spent exploring outdoors,
