Phu Quoc Island Hotels from $19

The location of this hotel is approx 9kms from the town centre so appears to be rather isolated. however once having explored more of the island, it is actually not as isolated as it first seems. There is not a lot to do in the town centre as it is very similar to other smallish towns in Vietnam - all about commercialism and fishing. It is easy enough to get a taxi to/from town when required. The complex is rather spread out over the property but there is a golf cart to get around if required. The pool is divine and if you would like a change the beach is only a few steps away as well. The restaurant on site is expensive but the quality of food is very good. There are several local options nearby as alternatives. It is great if you are looking for a relaxing get away. Scooters can be hired as an alternative way to see the island. Overall a great experience.

We absolutely loved our stay at Salinda. Amazing resort with excellent facilities including an indulgent spa. It's on the pricey side so be prepared for that but am sure the treatments are amazing (I didn't use because of the price and it was the end of our trip). The staff are great - really good English and super friendly and helpful. They are attentive and always looking at ways to make your stay better and making sure you're happy with everything. The grounds are so tranquil, loved the ponds and gardens, especially the summer houses for relaxing. The poolside staff were great too, they lay your towel down on the sun lounger for you and you pop a flag up if you want service. Drinks are excellent. They also have someone stationed at the beach to keep an eye on people's safety. If you want to experience Food outside the resort there are a few places across the road which are cheap but the food in the resort is worth staying for (we didn't try the Indian - we stuck with the Vietnamese options). The breakfast buffet is the best I have ever experienced, not just a wide range, the quality of everything is excellent. Oh, and free flow sparkling wine with breakfast...
