Phu Quoc? An underrated island in Vietnam! 🇻🇳

Everyone seems puzzled when I said I’m going to Phu Quoc. So where is this place? 🧐

It’s an island located on the west side of Vietnam. A hour flight away from #HCM.

Flight tickets domestically cost about $115 per pax. But here’s a good news: there’s direct flights to Phu Quoc from Singapore!!

Yes, you heard that right! Dumb me bought tickets straight to HCM; only later then I decide to fly to Phu Quoc (hence why I flew domestically) 💀

So what can you do here? Think of it as something like Sentosa. 😆 Theres tons of activities here - Water park, Safari, Vinworld theme park and longest cable car in the world!

Funny thing is I did not do any of the above items 😂 cos your girl isn’t an outdoor adventure kind of person; nor is my partner. Hence we literally chill for the entire trip. We caught fireworks every night, had cocktails every night by the beach bar, our hotel room and we had the most romantic dinner of all while catching the sunset. 💛

I stayed in Sunset Town, which was the tail end of the island where you can see the beach. I had the most amazing stay at Venice Hotel - I had 2 balconies in my room to watch fireworks and night shows.

Some things you need to take note for Phu Quoc:

1. There are tons of Koreans here on this island

2. Main mode of transport is by Grab. There is no buses or trains (similar to HCM)

3. There are fireworks EVERY night in sunset town

4. Did mostly cash transaction here. Did not have a chance to use my YouTrip card at all.

Would you visit this island in #vietnam ? Let me know what you think!
