La Veranda Resort Phu Quoc M Gallery Collection
Still the most stylish place to stay on Phu Quoc, La Veranda is designed in colonial style and is small enough to remain intimate, with just 44 rooms...
In general, accommodation in Vietnam offers superb value for money and excellent facilities. In big cities and main tourism centres you’ll find everything from hostel dorm beds to luxe hotels. If you’re travelling in the countryside and visiting provincial towns there’s less choice; you’ll usually be deciding between guesthouses and basic-but-decent hotels. Cleanliness standards are generally good and there are very few real dumps – even in remote rural areas there are some excellent budget places. Communication can be an issue at times (particularly off-the-beaten-path where few staff speak English), but it’s usually possible to get an understanding. Perhaps because of this, service standards in Vietnam can be a little haphazard.
