AND Resort Phu Quoc

The beach bar next door can get a little loud in the evenings, but the location is convenient, with King Kong supermarket and plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Our room was large and had a spacious balcony with a very cool view, especially at sunset. Breakfast had a good selection, and the housekeeping staff were very friendly.

There are lots of restaurants and bars close enough to walk to, and the hotel rents motorbikes cheaply. Getting to the property through a very narrow street was the one problem. I booked a panoramic room and thought it was worth every penny: it was bigger, had a large balcony, and looked out over the sea. There's direct beach access too. Breakfast is included, with quite good vegetarian choices.

The panoramic rooms have fantastic views for a great price, and the pool is bigger than it appears in the photos. The swim-up bar was fun, breakfast was nice and varied, and the egg guy was great. There's a cheap massage area on the beach, loads of restaurants and bars nearby, and the bar next door puts on a great fire show at night. Staff arranged a Moto rental for us at a good price with no fuss. We booked three nights here and three elsewhere, then wished we'd stayed here the whole time. We came right at the start of the season, so a few things weren't quite ready. The gym was out of order after some kind of roof accident, though it looked great and had lots of machines compared with other hotels we've stayed at. The electrical plugs by our bed were a bit broken too. Still, we'd definitely recommend it and come back.

We found the place comfortable, with a good breakfast and a good location. Mosquitoes bit me on our first day, so we bought repellent. At night I didn't get bitten, maybe because the air conditioning was on and the room was cold.
