Accommodation tips in Phu Quoc: how to choose a hotel?
Choosing the accommodation area depends directly on what you want your Phu Quoc vacation to look like: calm and secluded on a certain beach, full of excursions close to tourist attractions, or convenient for walks around town.
- The South — the coastline with light, white sand, including the famous Sao Beach and the starfish beach. Ideal for those who prefer quiet relaxation and swimming in warm, clear sea.
- The North — a territory of wild nature and a national park. An excellent choice for those who appreciate hiking, jungle walks, and birdwatching.
- The Center — Duong Dong town and its surroundings. Here you’ll find a lively atmosphere, night markets, restaurants, shops, and convenient access to any part of the island.
- For families with children — the Ganh Dau and Cua Can neighborhoods in the central-northern part. Nearby there are the safari park, the aquarium, amusement parks, water parks, and good beaches, and the road to attractions takes a minimum of time.
Guide to Phu Quoc Island
A vacation in Phu Quoc is a journey to an island where everything is designed for tourists’ comfort. A direct flight from Chișinău takes you to Phu Quoc International Airport, where you can immediately buy a SIM card with internet (10-15 GB pentru 8-12 USD) and go straight to the hotel (the Phu Quoc travel package from Admiral Travel includes a group transfer). Getting around the island is easy: there is a free tourist bus, and many rent a scooter or moped for complete freedom. Taxis in Phu Quoc are reliable, and the most convenient way to order them is via the Grab app.
The main town — Duong Dong — is the center of island life, with markets, cafés, restaurants, banks, pharmacies, and shops. The King Kong Mart supermarket chain is also located here, where you can buy groceries (including familiar European products), drinks, beach accessories, and household items. Popular tourist areas on the island include Long Beach, Ong Lang, Cua Can, Ganh Dau, An Thoi, as well as Sao and Kem beaches.
Hotels in Phu Quoc are diverse: from inexpensive guesthouses and cozy mini-hotels to luxurious complexes of international brands.

The island’s pride is hotels with rooftop pools, where during the day you enjoy the sea and sunsets, and in the evening you watch night shows right over the water. Dining options range from breakfast or „breakfast + dinner” to full all inclusive.
For health and safety, modern medical centers operate in Phu Quoc, including the international Vinmec hospital, where assistance is provided quickly and is, most often, covered by the insurance included in the travel package.
