Lovely, big, comfortable rooms. Secluded location”

the villa del sol beach villas and spa is on a secluded beach area not far away from phan thiet. secluded means: there is no night life nearby, and only a few local restaurants (rather basic, but the food is good and at reasonable prices). the rooms are very comfortable, spacious and clean. it was perfect for us because we wanted to simply relax by the pool, go to the beach while the children picked up seashells and made sand castles. there is free wi-fi throughout the resort, so we could even upload photos on facebook from the swimming pool. staff were very friendly, although sometimes it took a little bit of patience to make ourselves understood, but we always managed in the end! they helped us book a taxi to visit the nearby sights (the towers, fairy stream, red sand dunes and fishing village) and a private car to return to the airport in ho chi minh city. breakfast was very good, with a good choice. the restaurant was also very good. we had read other reviews saying that the food was not good or overpriced, but the hotel must have changed chefs or paid attention to the reviews recently because we found it was very yummy and freshly cooked. yes, you do have to wait a little bit, but that's because everything is prepared from scratch and not pre-cooked or frozen. i would recommend the vietnamese dishes (particularly the fresh fried fish with fish sauce. now there's a tongue twister for you!). we had a lovely time and the children enjoyed it very much.

Fantastic...Extraordinary...”

We have just spent 4 fantastic days at Villa Del Sol. We were upgraded to a beach front villa and it was amazing. The beach was literally on our door step. The rooms are very comfortable and luxurious.. the bathrooms are simply stunning. The best rooms I have ever stayed in. The pool was large and clean and absolutely beautiful. The restaurant served a variety of food at reasonable prices (there are a couple of local restaurants nearby if you prefer. The staff were very friendly and couldn't do enough for us. This area is very quiet.. not much to do outside the resort, but if that is what you are looking for, then you couldn't do better than Villa Del Sol. A very beautiful and untouched part of Vietnam. I will certainly return here.

Fantastic Rooms & Friendly Staff”

We went to Villa Del Sol specifically after staying there a couple of years ago after being captivated by the spacious rooms and tranquil gardens. After our arrival and complimentary cold drink we where shown to our room which did not disappoint and laid true to our memories of our previous stay. There had been a couple of changes most notably to the restaurant dining room layout which had increased in capacity and a screen from the front lawn to the beach, apparently this had been installed to stop sand from blowing into the resort area and make it more comfortable fro guests. As a returning family we where a little disappointed by the beach which had become more littered with rubbish brought in by the tide and also as a sandbank had formed off shore the surf had a very strong undertow. The beach is no longer a safe place for small children to roam the shallows and bathe even as an adult I was knocked off my feet on a couple of occasions. The pool however made for a relaxing swim and was shallow enough for our four year old to have a good time . Meal time brought an fairly extensive menu to choose from but the care that had gone into our rooms and the grounds was not really reflected in the quality of the food which made it quite expensive to dine in the restaurant. Breakfast however provided us with a good selection to eat buffet style and I am sure most dinners will find something to eat. So if you are looking at Villa del Sol as a one stop solution for a holiday you may be a little disappointed. My advice would be to look elsewhere at meals times and I hope that management will take the hint and improve the quality of the dining experience. Villa Del Sol has so much potential it just a pity it's not fully realised.

Totally relaxing ”

My 2nd stay at Villa del Sol...The rooms are so luxurious and large that its a pleasure to stay in them all day ! The swimming pool is absolutely wonderful - clean, large and next to the beach. Tien Thanh beach is a long way from the hustle and bustle of Mui Ne and is so quiet and relaxing. A couple of local restaurants across from Villa Del Sol with very good, cheap food. We stayed 3 nights and had a very relaxing break...

Upon arrival we where pleasantly surprised.”

Our stay was marred from the beginning as only one of our rooms was ready and the rest would become available after lunch. The hotel however stated that the other two rooms we booked would be upgraded , which we thought how could they as the room we saw already had a huge wow factor. The bathroom was fantastic. After lunch we moved into the two remaining rooms.( we where travelling with my father and sister who had separate rooms and my wife and I shared together with our one year old son). The two upgraded rooms where also of a high standard with beach views, we learnt a little later that that there was to be a private birthday beach party outside our villa. Why the management decided to place us in this villa, knowing we had a one year old with us and an elderly parent is beyond reasoning. Their solution was to move us into temporary rooms that night and back to our 'upgrade' rooms the following day. Our stay was to be for three nights and moving twice was not our idea of a relaxing time. The management of this hotel really need a lesson in good customer service practices. Despite this the staff where very friendly and helpful and the meals where very enjoyable. The breakfast buffet catered for both western and Vietnamese tastes, lunch and dinner menu's had a nice selection of Vietnamese foods (yum !) . Would I recommend this resort, well if the management would listen to their clientele a little better our experience would have been very pleasant, however marred our experience was and I really hope they read this review , the resort is a very pleasant one with friendly, helpful staff, the rooms are fabulous., so yes I would recommend Villa Del Sol.

Beautiful hotel with great staff”

Finding our way to our hotel was really hard as the open tour bus we took did not stop anywhere near the hotel. The best they could do was to drop us at the main road where we had to take a 7km taxi ride to the hotel. The hotel also do not provide a regular shuttle service to Phan Thiet but we were lucky they let us take the staff shuttle to get to town as there was nothing much to eat at the hotel other than their own restaurant. There was no tour operators in that area to visit places like white sand dune but the hotel staff was kind enough to arrange one at Mui Ne and we had to take a public bus to Phan Theit and change another to Mui Ne. We went during the off-peak season and found ourselves the only guest on the first night of our stay. Perfect getaway if you do not intend to leave the hotel and venture out. Otherwise, it would be more convenient to find accomodation at the busier town of Mui Ne.

Nice hotel and good service”

We had a wonderful long weekend at this resort. Very peaceful place and enjoyable with family. The front desk service is very good. The quality and decor of the villas is excellent with contemporary lines and very comfortable beds. Very delicious buffet breakfast. Only issue is the food order in the restaurant very high. The resort is little bit far from the central, in order to keep the customer stay to eat in the restaurant , recommended to change the price. Overall speaking, we got a great experience in this resort as the staff were extremely nice!

Beautiful resort and good service”

we love this resort at first sight. it looked green and peaceful outside with white villas surrounded by trees and flowers. the room decoration was perfect in every details, modern and romantic. their staffs were friendly, they always smiled with us. the food was also ok. overall, we feel very pleasure and we have great vacation there

Tuyệt vời!”

Tôi rất hài lòng với kỳ nghỉ ở Villa De Sol Beach, mọi thứ đều rất ổn

Great”

I stay 2 nights in Phan Thiet and really enjoys our time there.

Friendly beachside village location.”

Large clean outdoor swimming pool! This resort is located next to two other resorts (Champa & Golden Coast) in a small village with friendly local people. The village has about ten small restaurants with good food and reasonable menu prices for both Vietnamese and western food items. Most tourists are from Russia.

amazing place”

Quiet place. It take 20 km to Phan Thiet city. I will come back for relax and spend my vacation with my family and friends

Ideal stay for couples”

The only thing I didnt really like was the breakfast. There were only 5 rooms occupied in the whole resort but it took the chef 25 minutes to make an ommellette for us. Miss at the reception was quite unfriendly, she needs to learn to smile. Otherwise, we loved the room, the location, the pool and the beach. We will definitely come back.

Is so quiet.beach not so good.we go d wrong time ”

Sometimes go to restaurant n spa don't is on operation, beach can't swim n water sport we only swimming in d pool d hotel site around nothing to see.so we sleep early. Morning we have a nice view place for breakfast. got to go n back d resort by taxis.

Neat, spacious and comfortable resort”

The food served at restaurant is okay, deep fried squid dish is not recommended. The hotel is villa type, with separate kitchen for guests who want to cook a light meal. Good for family getaway or relaxing vacation on quiet beach. The location is far away from the bustling Mui Ne area, so you need private transport to get around.

Beautiful location!”

lovely spacious rooms with huge baths. the rooms are set in villas which is fine if you're with a group of friends and not so good if you're just a couple. downstairs, there is a kitchen with a fridge and a cooker although there is no crockery or cutlery. the setting is fantastic - lots if greenery and clean sandy beaches. staff were very friendly and helpful but the food was terrible! it took ages to arrive and was always served cold! the choice is limited unless you like oysters or squid. breakfast was quite limited too. there was loud techno music playing on a loop all day by the pool but we were allowed to drink our own wine without any corkage fees.

Satisfied”

We have been here for many times and all are satisfied with the resort and service, especially for the beach this time. However, not too much facility for entertainment. Suitable for a family with a young children and want for a real relax time.

Nice hotel, off the beaten path....”

Well I have to be honest, this hotel is great except that it is no where near anything else in town. The food was good though, rooms were GREAT, and the service was pretty good. There was a security problem before we arrived so I would keep you valuables in a safe or at the front desk if you are concerned. I will go to this hotel again if I take a trip and bring my own vehicle. Otherwise this place although is extremely nice, is not conveniently located.

Wonderful hotel on the beach”

we had a wonderful long weekend away from saigon. the quality and decor of the villas is excellent with contemporary lines and very comfortable beds. on the ground floor of each villa are luxury living & dining rooms and kitchen. but kitchen has no utensils! the food in the restaurant is very good and so are the cocktails by the pool. however, service could be a lot better. the choice for the buffet breakfast is good, but was spoilt by the fact there were so many flies hovering on the food. they need to close off the restaurant and make it air-conditioned. that would get rid of the flies!

excellent hotel, beautiful swimming pool and beach”

The best hotel we been to so far. Would not believe that Vietnam has this type of hotel being Vietnamese I am so proud of the decoration, the features in the room with the amazing bathroom and set up etc.. The swimming pool is breathtaking and the cocktails was a wonderful experience worth every cents. Thank you Agoda for introducing this to us.
