Great hosts, awesome friendly and best food in all of Vietnam”

Absolutely must go resort on phu Quoc Just perfect

Tilfredsstillende”

Bed relally hard Spider on the bed

Value for Money with great staff”

Owner and staff is very good. Location is bit inconvenient, too far from center and Motorbikes on rent are also not available

Perfect”

Breakfast good, room very very nice! Staff very nice! Sao beach 3 km, you can rent motorbike for 120000, 10 dollar with a taxi from the pier

Great stay”

The staff at the hotel was very nice! I loved talking to Ben and his mom, who own the property. They assist you in anything and are very sweet people. The hotel was a good location- close to Sao Beach and away from the noisy city center. The rooms are clean and spatious. They were just a few ants in the room, but it's normal concidering the weather and location. Will definetly come back!

Nothing bad to say”

Very pretty Hotel with a great owner!”

We had a great stay at the hotel - THANK YOU! The rooms are very, very clean and pretty, which was a blessing after some darker places. In addition,the owner helped us whenever he could, even when we got sick he invited us to some rice :) The staff was just as great. The hotel is, indeed, located a little further abroad. But it is on the right side of the island and one of the few hotels close to Bai Sao!

Hotel near the Sao Beach”

The hotel is near Sao Beach but anyway you must rent a bike or call a taxi to reach it. We rented a motorbike at the hotel but it didnt work properly. The food is overpriced, so even if you want to eat you must rent a bike and ride to the city (20 km). In winter Sao Beach is full of garbage. We were forced to ride to the north and it took a lot of time.

Far away from everything”

The hotel looked really clean, but ants crawling all over the bed, impossible to keep any food in your room. The location is too far away from every place of interest. The center Duong Dong is 20 km away. If you don't want to pay for a Taxi every day, you'll have to rent a motorbike. At the time we stayed, there wasn't any left at this hotel. I regret booking this hotel after the first night. There is no reason to stay here.

Okay but don't expect much ”

Room had balcony and size was appropriate for two persons. Cleanliness was more or less ok,there were few ants and a roach occasionally,but I guess that can't be avoided in the climate. Bathroom was a bit substandard and everything was wet after showering as the shower was not separated. Bed creaked much so sleeping was interrupted sometimes. Also the hotel is at the main road and trucks as well as cars tend to honk at this intersection when passing by, don't expect a calm place. Staff was kind but English was basic. There's not much around the hotel so a motorcycle should be rented, eg from the hotel, to reach the beaches or the towns.

Worst manager, quite different from reviews ”

In my life, and after a year of living and traveling in Vietnam, I was incredibly unimpressed with the manager of the Kinh Bac hotel. His family is quite friendly and helpful- what I've found to be the norm in such a wonderful country, but the manager himself is the worst person at customer service I (or my family) has ever met, being rude, not listening to obvious facts, and even talking over us on the phone. One of our rooms in a bungalow didn't work- the power blacked out despite the breaker not flipping, and he insisted that we would pay for it despite not being able to use it at all. Luckily we didn't have to pay for the broken room (which he knew about and tried to fix, but didn't work), or HIS booking fee to Agoda that he tried to force on us. The food (dinner at least) is way overpriced and nothing special, and you could pay a third of the price at any decent tourist restaurant anywhere in Vietnam. The hotel had also rented all their motorbikes out. This is important because it isn't close to anything, unless you like paying way more for taxis. The manager didn't help or offer any other options for motorbikes either, incredibly unhelpful fellow. The hotel also doesn't have spare keys for the rooms or a master key, so if the staff locks your key in the room (which isn't on you), expect a mild meltdown from the manager who refuses to use simple problem solving to move forward and instead mind numbing repetition of facts (3 keys, 3 rooms). Luckily the locks are terrible quality and a little force goes a long ways in finding your key and fleeing... On the other hand, the new Montana Resort just down the little road is great, has a pool and a good selection of well priced food, and super helpful customer service. Don't stay at the Kinh Bac unless you love losing money or incredibly rude managers.

Worst hotel on our journey”

This hotel was a very big disappointment. Private beach is 3km away and only reachable with the hotels overpriced scooters. The hotel manager is very keen to rent you a scooter even if you don't have a driver's license which is valid in vietnam. Therefore you are encourage to drive illegally. The mentioned pool is not part of this hotel but belongs to another resort down the street. This resort is greasy and not appealing, so is the pool. The hotel located in the middle of nowhere. There are two restaurants (besides the restaurant in the hotel) nearby, however both were closed. Only a small shop was open. Therefore, you can only eat at the hotel which has an overpriced and limited menu. The rooms are roomy but not very comfortable. The bathroom and the room itself are very simple. The only feature worth mentioning was the view from the balcony (palm trees). All in all, it is not a hotel we would recommend for a relaxing holiday stay on Phu Quoc. It is acceptable if you have a valid driver's license and only plan to sleep there but even then it's too expensive.

Expected too much”

Although the staff was friendly and welcoming, there is not much to do at the hotel itself or close by. You must plan tours, which they will help you with. There are no places to eat around the hotel expect the hotel itself.

Comfortable hotel but far way from any beach”

We were very disappointed at our arrival at the hotel. Not only had we had to pay 10$ taxi to reach it, but we discovered we couldn't' do anything without a motorbike, which we had to rent at the hotel. The closest beach is at approx. 2,5 kilometre. It is a so-called "natural" beach, I.e. not cleaned and where you cannot swim. There is no facility. It is supposed to be authentic but the place is not inviting to stay. The "Bai Sao" beach is 4,5- kilometre distant and there you can lay on your towel on the beach or rent a bed.. So don't trust the hotel description saying the location is ideal and the pictures of the beach. This being said, the hotel is clean, the rooms pleasant, the bed comfortable and the staff helpful and willing to find solutions.

Best place I have stayed in eons!!!!”

Thoroughly enjoyable stay, Vu and his team were great. Genuinely friendly and helpful yet always discretion personified. I can't recommend them and their establishment enough. Also Vu patched me up after I took a spill off the scooter I had rented (smooth concrete, sand and a sudden splash of water from someone washing their pick-up equalled something suddenly akin to sheet ice covered in marbles!!! The front end washed out before I could even think about it and I ride a big bike in London and have ridden since I was 4 years old, be warned!!) The tv picture was unusually perfect for south east Asia and the choice of English movie chanels the best I have ever come across, beating even 5 star hotels I have been fortunate enough to stay in. Lovely beach two clicks away and other things for you to find locally too. Just remember to bring your driving licence and you're good to rent a scooter on arrival at the airport for 150,000 vnd = $6 usd approx I think. Spend more to be on Long beach in a bungalow/tikki style hut by all means but I will be back to Kinh Bac like shot!

Bon séjour personnel en or”

OK”

Very close to Sao beach and new pagoda”

Only guests at the time of booking large comfortable beds, rooms are well furnished bring your own razor. Close to Sao beach go to North end of the beach south and center location too noisy eith speed boats and larger ships. A bit far from the airport but all roads are smooth on the drive there, rent a motorbike from the fish market in town for 150k a day it should come with a full tank of gas.

Excellent for stay to visit Sao Beach”

The airport is closest to Sao Beach, the most beautiful beach on the island, compared to all the hotels at Long Beach and further north. So it is a good idea to make Sao Beach the 1st destination on Phu Quoc. The best developed "hotel" on Sao Beach is My Lan, however the conditions there make its hotel rate ridiculous. Not totally My Lan's fault, this corner of the island is simply too secluded. Kinh Bac is very well-placed on the main road to Sao Beach, 4 km away. Spend 2 nights there, then head north for Long Beach hotels and beyond. Then pay for a long distance trip from your final location back to the airport. To adequately have the peaceful Phu Quoc feeling soak in you, 4 nights is min, preferably 7 days. Have fun!

A great little hotel with awesome staff”

We had a great stay at Kinh Bac Hotel! The hotel is brand-new and it shows: everything is crisp and clean, and in my opinion this adds a lot to the appearance and feel of guest accommodations. Our rooms were spacious and well-equipped with minibar, closet, chairs, and outlets on both sides of the bed. Rooms have the typical Vietnamese wet bathroom, but you get used to it. Bed is hard, as other reviewers have noted, but we personally slept well on the firm foam. Rooms have large windows and so receive a lot of natural light, and the air conditioning worked, though not terribly powerfully. Wifi works well. Showers were cool/cold, but as it was so hot outside this wasn’t an issue for us. Breakfasts were simple (bowls of noodles) but free, so more than adequate. The hotel staff is eager to please, and the manager provides exceptional service. We rented motorbikes one day and this is definitely the way to go if you want to explore the entire island. For $10 + ~$5 gas, we rode literally all day and found ourselves in places that we probably shouldn't have been, and much fun was had by all. This brings me to the only negative: its location. Situated only 5km from the famous Bai Sao, it appears on the map to be conveniently located for beach trips. In reality though this is too far to walk, and a taxi will run you about $3.50 each way. In the immediate area, options for dining are scarce: one other resort is across the street, but its restaurant was closed when we tried it. We ended up eating back at the Kinh Bac restaurant that night, which was surprisingly good and at comparable prices to other hotel restaurants and restaurants on the island, but if you like variety in your culinary habits you won’t find it in the immediate area. In summary, this is a great place if you plan to rent motorbikes or hire a car to explore the island, and it might be a little disappointing (though of no fault of the hotel) if you plan to just hang around the immediate area.
