Independent, Phu Quoc Island hotels

"PROS: 1. Every single employee is genuinely nice and professional. 2. There are cameras throughout the hotel and good lighting, all good safety measures. 3. Free breakfast buffet offers lots of food and closes at 10:30am which is perfect so kids don't have to wake up too early. 4. We got free 2 water bottles each day per room which is nice. CONS: We wished they put more thought into the exercise/ gym room: 1- The exercise room should be open 24 hours. People who exercise while on vacation are generally people who prioritize their personal health and safety, and have no need for assistance to operate the exercise equipment, plus there's a security camera in the room and staff at the front desk should anything arise. During the 4 days we stayed, the exercise room closed at 5pm. Of the hundreds (yes, hundreds) of hotels I stayed at within a decade, this is the first for us. 2. Please put small towels, cleaning spray/wipes, and 1-2 yoga mat, and mirror on the wall(s) in the exercise room. The mirror is for safety reasons, as people need to look at their form, ie the weights in relation to their body position so they don't hurt themselves and maximize their exercise. *Placing the gym room with the pool view is perfect! It's nice to be able to see our family in the pool. Overall, I'd recommend this hotel, but until they make the recommended changes above, my family will not stay here again mainly because having access to a proper exercise room is important to us. "

"Our 3 days were excellent. Night markets close by."

"Nice place"

"An outstanding resort with a outstanding staff. One of the best hotels in SE Asia"

"Amazing property. It close to nature and very quite. Best thing about the property was the staff, very helpful, polite and go above and beyond to provide best service. "

"We had an amazing stay! Property is well maintained, rooms are large and comfortable, pool and beach are great! Good restaurant options! My only complain would be service and pool and restaurants, it was very slow. "

"Arrived for new years. What a feast! 4 hours of music, with intermissions that included lion dancing and a magician. Band was really, really good. Only couple of negatives: too many people hung their clothes out to dry (nobody wants to see other people's unmentionables drying) and the breakfast food was average. Service was excellent and the room amenities top drawer."

"Great hotel, excellent staff, excellent perks with Accor plus. Rooms were very nice and spacious but pillows slightly too soft"

"We have a Good stay in Vinpearl Resort. Very nice"
