Overview

Located on the west coast of Phu Quoc Island right on the beach is the stylish La Veranda. This fairly large, sophisticated resort aims to provide guests with somewhere they can relax, unwind and enjoy a quintessential Vietnamese beach holiday in a prime location. There’s plenty to see, do and experience both on the resort and throughout Phu Quoc. Guests can fill their days with activities, or take things at a more leisurely pace. The property’s design is inspired by French colonial-style buildings of the past, though the resort is still in many respects a modern and contemporary place to stay.

There are a total of 70 rooms and villas, each offering views of the beach and the Gulf of Thailand, or the tropical botanical gardens. Amenities common to all types of accommodation include a satellite TV and DVD player, a ceiling fan and air conditioning, complimentary bottled water and a minibar. There’s also a private terrace or a balcony. All the accommodation combines traditional design with modern touches.

French and Vietnamese dishes are served at The Pepper Tree, the resort’s main restaurant. It offers fine dining experiences, which guests can enjoy while taking in views of the ocean. For a more informal option there’s Le Jardin, which offers al fresco dining on the open beach deck and whose menu features a range of international classics. In addition to these, there are regular beach barbecues and a full-service bar with a broad range of drinks available. Cooking classes are recommended for those looking to learn about the local cuisine, and private candlelit beach dinners can be arranged.

There's plenty to do on site at the resort. There's a pool and fitness centre and a spa offering an enticing array of treatments. Fashionable beachwear, souvenirs and keepsakes can be purchased at La Boutique. The stretch of beach directly in front of the hotel is private, and here guests can play volleyball and go kayaking, snorkelling or scuba diving. Tours and expeditions to various places throughout Phu Quoc can be arranged. Some of the island’s many highlights include its fine beaches, sprawling pepper farms, bustling markets and unspoiled natural park, known for its abundant rainforest wildlife.

The resort is child friendly, with a babysitting service available on request. Larger families are advised to book two interconnecting rooms and parents are reminded to keep their children under constant adult supervision, particularly when on the beach and near the swimming pool.

  • I was also just about to email you to thank you and the team for arranging yet again, another wonderful experience.

    Mount Kenya was spectacular and wild - I think I prefer it to Kili in many ways. The entire support team was professional, friendly and all round fantastic in making sure that we were safe, well fed and well looked after. In particular, we would commend Peter the guide as well as Paul one of the porters who doubled-up as his deputy on summit day. Our route was often shrouded in mist and rain that rapidly gathered in the valleys and moorlands, and we were very impressed at how Peter managed to navigate us safely through all of that notwithstanding. In addition, we loved learning about the history of Mount Kenya from him in the evenings. And ofcourse, I was blown away by the lovely birthday surprise at the end complete with balloons and a delicious cake that had journeyed with us from day 1. One thing we might recommend because of the sudden change in weather (it would sometimes get extremely cold and wet) is for the equipment list to be a little bit more detailed in terms of its recommendations e.g. layers to be moisture-wicking, walking boots be waterproof, doubling up on socks to avoid blisters etc.

    El Karama is a beautiful conservancy and the lodge a true labour of love. Great hospitality in a relaxed environment. Delicious, fresh food. We enjoyed the drives, even if we didn't see much wildlife as the heavens opened on us for the last two outings. However, since it was very much geared towards families, I am not sure if I would stay again without kids. That said, I think it was perfect for a 3d/2n stay post mountain, and a much better choice than flying to the masai mara given the limited time we had.

    Our transits were smooth. Samuel the driver was always on time, drove safely and kept the vehicle clean.

    So it was a brilliant experience and one which I certainly will cherish for some time to come. It was great to work with you for a third time, and I certainly hope it won't be the last

  • Thank you, we had an absolute wonderful time, and everything was well-planned and as described. Carla was crying on the day of our departure from Ants Nest, she didn’t want to go home and for it all to end, and when I asked how much longer she would want to stay, she responded “four weeks”

  • We had the most amazing time. It exceeded all my hopes of what the trip would be. The guides, the hotels - everything was of such a wonderful quality. Thank you for organizing everything. I will absolutely recommend Tourdust and use you again.
