An "edge of the world" experience with great food”

The Gold Coast Resort is about an hour drive from the Phu Quoc airport, the last part of which is a bumpy dirt road. But when you get there, you are treated to an isolated beach with great lounging and eating facilities, a very accommodating staff, and great food. Currently there are 8 rooms, all on the beach, though more rooms are being built behind (so there are some construction noises during the day, though mostly they are hand tools and not very loud). You can eat your meals in a beach side gazebo with views of the ocean and jungle and mountains and islands beyond, or in the main dining room, with the same views. The food is excellent. If you want a quiet place to stay with great service and scenery, and the feeling that you've lucked out and found a bit of a lost paradise, then this is the place.

Excellent”

The staff and the manager were delightful, helpful and efficient. The location is perfect, if you want calm with natural surroundings. The standard of the interiors of the villas, especially the 'Sea-view' ones, was very high. (be aware of the difference between 'Sea-view' and 'Beach-front'). Further along the coast, but out-of-sight of the resort, are examples of the awful fate that awaits the lovely coast of Phu Quoc: a nightmare of gigantic concrete fantasies. Go while resorts like 'The Gold Coast' are still there.

Exceptional”

About an hour far from the airport, the resort offers very peaceful and calm holiday. The resort is small, all the rooms are about 2 minutes max far from the private beach, which was very clean and the water clear. For breakfast is buffet and it is ok but the meals a la carte we had for dinners and lunches are very good and for reasonable prices. The rooms are spacious as well as bathrooms and very clean. The pool is nice, with a shallow part for kids with a slide. The only minus is the time we always had to wait in the restaurant to get our meal and drinks, they were always forgotting something and just took long time, even if there weren't too many people. Anyway the staff was very nice just not very experienced in english. It was our 4th time on Phu Quoc and probably the best place. If we have the chance to go here again, we probably choose Gold Cost.

Wonderful stay, would recommend”

We really enjoyed our time in Phu Quoc, and the staff at Gold Coast took care of us so well! We were the only guests for several days (early in the week on the offseason) and they made us gorgeous breakfasts, kept our room spotless and always had smiles. I recommend anyone who wants to avoid the main tourist strip to go a bit out of the way and try this lovely resort.

Exceptional”

Although remote, this is a hidden gem for anyone wanting a quiet, peaceful and relaxing beach holiday. Spacious and comfortable rooms that are flawlessly clean, beautiful beach, refreshing and clean pool, great staff, and a wonderful little breakfast spread. Did I mention delicious food? Very comprehensive and affordable menu in the dining area with awesome views of the water. The resort also offers free airport transfers - greatly appreciated especially for a first time visitor. Loved being able to rent a scooter onsite to explore the island! Bicycles were also a hit for touring around the immediate area. My only suggestion would be to extend the happy hour to two hours from one - it was an idyll time to meet other travelers from around the globe in a relaxed and social setting. I would highly recommend this resort. Given the level of development and construction happening at the south end of Phu Quoc, gems like this one will be harder to find. We will be back.

Fabulous, secluded charming seaside resort”

Couldn't have been happier on our weekend away from Ho Chi Minh City. The room was spacious with a comfortable bed and big wooden lounges on the porch looking out at the sea. The restaurant is tops; excellent food, from the included breakfast to the cobia and veg red curry for dinner, which we ate from the gazebo just meters from the water. Staff is cheeful and helpful and the sea is flat and mostly clear on this side of the island. The swimming is great. Take a right along the coast past a few small accommodations and swim along the undeveloped national park; about 2km down there is a patch of starfish among the coral and sandy bottom. The vibrant and peaceful Nguyen Trung Truc temple is just a 15 minute ride on bicycles provided by the hotel. We highly recommend Gold Coast. Only hitch was my first emails about an airport transit didn't get answered for a day or two until I telephoned, but the staff was excellent The rid each way costs about 400,000 dong and takes an hour.

Gold Coast is a lovely resort located in the northern part of Phu Quoc. Perfect for a romantic vacay”

If you are looking for a romantic getaway, then Gold Cost is a lovely choice. It is located in the far north part of Phu Quoc, and in February the tides couldn’t be better. With a lovely inlet filled with rocks, the beach is pristine. The beaches to the left and right of the actual resort, however, could use some cleaning up. The staff is attentive and they help with anything you may want, but the receptionists could be a bit less comatose. The food is decent, but a bit over priced, as is to be expected at a somewhat secluded resort. The rooms are well kept and spacious. The bed is very comfortable. The shower comes equipt with a hot water. The room we had did have a bit of a musty smell, but there isn’t a bungalow on the island that I have found that doesn’t. The only negative I would say is the distance from town, but if you’re looking for a couples retreat, it’s lovely, and I would recommend it.

Perfect spot for an isolation trip”

My goal was to be far away from anyone so I could be holiday in peace, and the Gold Coast Resort fit the bill perfectly. Except for the 1st night when the neighboring hotel was blasting Tet music, the rest of the stay was great and quite peaceful. Note: It's VERY far from the main touristy spots, but I knew that going in and preferred that. The beach wasn't that nice, but not the fault of the resort. Food was very good, staff was great, and no real complaints. Easy to rent a motorbike and they had free mountain bikes to take out as well. My only gripe would be the pool was too chlorinated and I couldn't swim in it unless I had goggles or it would burn my eyes.

One of the best resorts in Phu Quoc”

We had a perfect stay in Gold Coast Resort. The location was quiet and beautiful. The private Beach was a dream and very clean. Water was perfect. Also the Pool. We had a bungalow with pool view. Very luxurious equipment. The bathrom was huge and modern. The Food was delicious. I had the best Burger i had eaten in the last years. We had a good time in Gold Coast Resort and its worth comming back. Thank you

Relaxing end to SE Asia trip”

We loved our stay at the Gold Coast Resort. It was the last four days of our six week tour of south east Asia. We had a fairly ambitious itinerary so were more than ready for a bit of relaxation before heading home. The rooms were large and bright and we were pretty excited when we saw the bathroom...it was large with a separate tub and good sized shower.Thankfully we'd see the last of the wet room showers! The restaurant had a large menu/good food which was nice because other eating options in the area were fairly limited.

Great long weekend stay”

Enjoyed an amazing long weekend at Gold Coast Resort, bungalow right on the beach. Small and quiet hotel so totally private, secluded from the masses. Staff always went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. Perfect place for a relaxing & romantic weekend away

Beach is exceptionally beautiful”

highly recommended if you are beach go-ers. water is crystal clear, not contaminated like other beaches in Phu Quoc. only downside is the location. it is remoted from everywhere, there aren't many choices of restaurants except the hotel. bicycle is free. also the staff don't speak english well. the resort itself is beautiful i was surprised! it was so much better than photos! my friend and i stayed in bungalow, the bathroom was huge! if you look for beach and quiet time with your loved one, this is the right place!

Gold Coast Resort was a wonderful beach front retreat after a busy travelling schedule.”

All the staff are friendly, cheerful and helpful. The rooms are clean and well attired. The beds are comfortable. The plumbing is in a bit of disrepair; however this didn't affect our comfort or our stay. There is great snorkelling right off the beach. But bring your own mask if at all possible. You will see a lot more of what is out there. You can get a private local boat to turtle island for snorkelling for 1.5k through the resort. The water is warm so you can stay in for hours. There are also some organic farms at the north end of the island...a bee farm and a pepper farm/brewery...both well worth the visit. Book your scooters early as there aren't many. You can also borrow bicycles and visit another local brewery Pho Quoc Beer for mini kegs in the closest village. We had a really wonderful stay.

We would book again anytime”

- well-kept and nice facility - friendly and helpful staff - Rooms were cleaned twice a day - Rinsed garbage was collected in the morning and the beach cleaned - large rooms with large bathrooms - Free shuttle bus to and from the airport, if you stay at least 3 nights (but better let them confirm again) - Selection at breakfast is ok, the quality of the restaurant overall good - Free rental of kayaks, snorkel sets, a pedal boat, bicycles, mountain bikes (condition of the bikes is not that good) and a few other things - The resort is located right on one of the best beaches on the island Around it are no other restaurants or opportunities for excursions, which one should be aware of. But to relax it is perfect.

Calm and relaxed beach and hotel”

We spent 3 of our total 7 nights on Phu Quoc at Gold Beach resort. Clean private spacious beach (was beeing cleaned every morning), clean, large and very nice rooms, friendly staff with two who could speak English. 3 days at the resort were fine but longer would have been booring to us. There are just a few more restaurants nearby to choose between. It was also very strong wind from north east for two days, difficult to sunbath or swim, it was not even relaxing to sit outdoors or in the restaurant the second day due to the wind. They have good bikes (a kind of mountain bikes, it takes <10 min to bicycle to the small town) free to borrow, as well as free kayaks and snorkeling equipment. Choose a beach front bungalow if available, the back row bungalows dont have sea view. We had problems with the toilet every day, it did not flush properly and we had to ask them to fix it every day, that was a bit disturbing.

it was nice resort for my holiday”

all our group satisfy this resort. we enjoyed our Lunar holiday during 4 days. Location is little bit far from Phu Quoc town. But we satisfied coz it's small and quite clean resort. when i visit again Phu Quoc i will stay again this resort. Thanks for all staffs

Honeymoon Heaven for us”

Thanks Gold Coast for having us the best honeymoon ever. Lovely beach, weather, food, hospitality. Hope you guys keep up with the great work. Just a small comment on the food portions at The Wooden Restaurant: maybe we are vietnamese so we prefer portions to be less so we can order more dishes. The portion now worth the money but just huge for us :) Thank you guys for everything

A wonderful place to chill out.”

This resort is a wonderful small resort. The chalets are excellent some of which are around the large swimming pool others facing the sea. Beach small but adequate for number of guests and kept immaculately clean by the staff. Staff do not speak very fluent English but it wasnt a problem as they could speak sufficient for us to communicate our needs. Western menu is a little lacking but not too great an inconvenience. There is not a lot to do in the locality immediately around the resort we walked to the local village and back but may be too long a walk for some and not a lot to see or do there. Quite a poor area by the look of it not orientated toward the tourist. Vin Pearl (the Asian equivalent to Disneyland) is not far away but didnt seem busy the twice we passed in a taxi . Interestingly a new hospital has been built right next to Vin Pearl!! We expect in a few years that the local village near this resort will become more geared towards the tourist. We enjoyed our stay.

Amazing resort”

We stayed here for 6 nights, could not fault the resort in any way. Beach was beautiful, kept spotlessly clean. We snorkeled every day, there is a mix of shallow sandy swimming beach and 2-3m coral rocks with fish and sea creatures. We also used the sea kayak and pedal boat which were free to borrow. Food was great, especially dining down along the beach. Pool is large and clean with poolside bar available. Beachside room was large and modern, with perfect WiFi and new smart TV. Even WiFi on the beach, how good is that !!! Staff always friendly and helpful. Front desk also helpful to organize tours, we got picked up at the resort by a little boat to go snorkelling at turtle island, it was amazing. Yes this place is amazing, better than it looks in the photos.

Gold Coast Phu Quoc ”

The Gold Coast is an ideal place to get away from it all. It’s position is wonderful and offers tranquility. The beach is clean and regularly cared for. The bungalows are spacious, clean and well equipped.The range and quality of food is excellent. However what really makes this place so fantastic is that all staff members go over and beyond to make your stay memorable.
