Last February, Phu Quoc Interna-
tional Airport welcomed the first direct
chartered flight run by Russian helicop-
ter company, Ikar, with 250 Russian
tourists aboard, but only 48 chose to
stay on the island. In March, there were
three more direct flights from Russia to
Phu Quoc, but in total, only 208 Russian
tourists remained on the island. More
than half of the passengers on the four
flights chose to travel to Cam Ranh Bay,
Khanh Hoa province.
Russian tourists are not interested
in Phu Quoc because room rates there
are usually higher than those in Dan-
ang, Khanh Hoa and Phan Thiet and rec-
reational services offered on Phu Quoc
beaches are not as diverse as in other
places. As the number of high-standard
hotel rooms in Phu Quoc is limited,
travel agencies sometimes have to sign
contracts with prices 30 per cent higher
than in other places.
However, major change is afoot
with the opening of Vingroup’s Vinpearl
Resort Phu Quoc on November 1.
Situated strategically on Long
Beach, the Vinpearl Phu Quoc - one
among six super-projects of Vingroup
- will be the biggest five-star complex
on the island. Built on an area of more
than 300ha along one of the most
beautiful and unspoilt beaches, Vin-
pearl Phu Quoc is a luxurious, world
class tropical luxury resort boasting an
international standard 27 hole island
golf course and a wonderful Vinpearl
Land Amusement Park.
Built with superior construction
standards and architecture, Vinpearl
Phu Quoc resort consists of 750 luxuri-
ous rooms, including 30 beautiful villas
with facilities that warrant its five-plus
star status. The hotel design is an ec-
lectic mix of contemporary design and
old-world charm inspired by Indochina
architectural features from the early
twentieth century.
This will be the biggest five-star
hotel on the island, with a main pool
of 4,000 square metres amidst vast
natural open spaces. Besides excellent
restaurants offering fine local and inter-
national cuisines, the resort also has a
spa, fitness center, tennis courses and
watersports equipment.
Guests will enjoy absolute relaxa-
tion on the exquisite room balconies,
taking in the fresh air that and even
welcoming the first rays of the crimson
dawn. The hotel’s interiors are steeped
in luxury, with carefully designed fea-
tures. And to meet your every need
and bring to your holiday a heightened
sense of care, privacy and comfort, all
services at Vinpearl Phu Quoc are avail-
able 24/7.
Vinpearl Phu Quoc resort offers a
large meeting room system with a total
capacity of more than 1,000 people and
modern facilities. At the end of year,
the Miss Vietnam 2014 contest will be
held here.
Moreover, Vinpearl Amusement
Park is another strong attraction of the
Vinpearl Phu Quoc complex. Built on
a large area and comparable to the
leading entertainment parks of the re-
gion and the world, it is home to the
Vinpearl Water Park, Vinpearl Under
Water World and a unique dolphin per-
formance area, as well as a huge stage
for water music performances with ca-
pacity of over 2,300 people.
