Pros:
- Easy access to the beach
- Lots of incline chairs on the beach for sunbathing
- Rooms had a good standard, everything was clean and freshly repainted
- Really quiet part of the beach, just a few minutes walk from the restaurants area
Cons:
- The beach view is great. But looking in other directions it's just vacant lots (waiting to be exploited) filled with debris
- The language barrier, communication in English is hard, not unique for this hotel, but it does detract from the overall score
- They leave broken things lying around, like umbrellas or incline chairs that are garbage
What you get
A quiet beach experience with rooms with nice standard for a very reasonable price. Within walking distance of any of the restaurants and nightlife. If you're willing to squint a little while walking the premises and enjoy the beach you will have a great time.
What you don't get
A "paradise experience" where there's a garden, a pool, a tennis court and a white cloth restaurant. To get that you need to pay at least double and book one of the hotels a few hundred meters to the north.
When choosing a Phu Quoc hotel
Some hotels have private parts of the beaches, or semi-private where you can rent an incline chair. But the majority of the beach is free for all.
The town is pretty boring (and taxi is cheap)
This hotel is situated on the beach where you want to book a hotel
