Some loud noise during the evening and very early in the morning on our last night. Otherwise it was perfect and we could rest very well to the calming sound of the water, and the view is beautiful!

So genuine and well maintained. I loved the traditionally built bungalows by the sea. All built with wood and straw for a perfect self ventilating climate indoors. It felt like we were on the water and actually we were during the night at high-tide, we were lucky to experience that for two nights. It was so grounding and relaxing. The whole atmosphere is so welcoming and inviting thanks to the lovely family that runs this place. They even drove us to our next location. This is a perfect getaway. We will be back, thank you so much for everything!

I had a fabulous week staying with this lovely family! The bungalow was clean, well-equipped, and very comfortable. The family was incredibly attentive and made me feel right at home. The location is a bit off the beaten path, around 45 minutes by scooter from the city center, but it’s calm and peaceful – perfect for recharging. One special highlight was spotting some monkeys on the road toward the center of the island – a rare and unforgettable experience! The family kindly provided me with a scooter, but they don’t always have enough available, so it’s worth checking in advance or renting one at the airport if needed. The local food they served was delicious, and I highly recommend this stay for anyone looking to enjoy an authentic, tranquil experience away from the hustle and bustle.

Nothing. But be aware it’s about 45 mins from airport (we hired a motorbike abs enjoyed being in a quiet area) and the bay is shallow so more for paddling than swimming unless you go out on the owners boat.

An amazing place to stay - like going back to the “original” Phu Quoc before development. The beachfront bungalow was clean and comfortable with a fantastic view, but the selling point was the amazing service and the food. It’s not like a resort hotel (so don’t book if that’s what you want), it’s staying with a lovely family in a rustic setting for a great price. Bonus: book the fishing and snorkelling trip which included the best meal of our trip.

Laid back nature of the family the own and run the home stay. It was also in a very quiet part of the island which was exactly what I was looking for.

No desk, only 1 staff spoke decent english, they tried to charge me for breakfast until I showed them my booking details. They then told me breakfast was a chocolate pastry, what a joke! There mistake, so no charge for my morning fried rice. Otherwise they tried hard to accommodate my requirements.

Good sized room, electric shower adequate. Good balcony view to East, comfortable bed.

The host family were wonderful and kind. I would definitely book here again.

Not that I didn’t like, just on that side of island is not possible to swim. But ~20min drive through the beautiful jungle (with monkeys) you can reach white sand beach.

Amazing place to take a break! So peaceful and quiet, amazing owners and great food. There is so good energy. Room was very comfortable, with big bed! Good wifi. Near the place are some small convenience stores, but all meals you can order at the guesthouse (fresh seafood) and it’s super delicious! If someday I will return to Phu Quoc- this will be the place to return!

Really enjoyed the simplicity of this place, it was a breath of fresh air on Phu Quoc. Everyone who worked there were great, really chatty and helpful. Perfect quiet location to use as a base while exploring the island.

No hot shower but pretty standard for homestays. And the small town it is in doesn't have much to offer so it's best to go there either to enjoy the low key atmosphere or as a base for exploring the Northside of Phu Quoc.

It was a good spot to use as a base on the Northeast part of the island as it isn't as developed as the South. It's a Homestay experience so you can have dining there as well. They also have boat tours and I even went net fishing with some Vietnamese guests which made the experience truly unique. If going I advise you have your own personal transportation from the Southern part of Phú Quốc. I however drove my motorcycle from Saigon.

I was really looking forward to step out of the touristic and busy stay for a bit and local beach provided that for me! What a hidden gem. Beautifull scenic place, the service was good and the food even more so. Loved every second of my stay here.

The seafront location is very nice. I stayed six nights, every day I felt more and more bad vibes. The bungalow is made of straw and wood. Due to the way it is built, insects (ants, mosquitoes, geckos, etc.) can enter from anywhere, even from the floor (see photos 1). More than once I found feces in the bed that I think were gecko feces. The net placed on the bed to keep insects out while you sleep is not enough, insects will enter during the night. The bungalows do not all have the same insect netting (see photo 2). At Local Beach Phu Quoc there is only one sink to wash your teeth, your hands after going to the bathroom or your face in the morning. It does not work. There is no water and no drain pipe. Instead of a sink you can use a water pipe that comes out of the ground behind the bungalow (see photo 3); you will brush your teeth there and spit the toothpaste directly on the ground. If it rains there is no common place to eat indoors and the area in front of the bungalow floods (see photo 4). You will eat inside the bungalow and with the food even more insects will come inside the bungalow. I think these things should be written on booking in the bungalow description because for me it wasn't a problem, but for many other people it could be. For the reasons stated above I consider the asking price for the bungalow (350,000 Dong per night) too high for the service offered. If you intend to rent a scooter at "Local Beach Phu Quoc" please specify whether the rental price requested is for 24 hours from the time the rental begins as is customary in Vietnam (for example from 11am today to 11am tomorrow) or for today (for example from 11am today to 12pm today). In general, I recommend that you always explain everything clearly to avoid misunderstandings that are always "coincidentally" unfavorable to you economically.

tidal water not really suitable for swimming, very few food choices, a very remote location

Owners were nice, AC worked well
