Coco Palm Resort, Phu Quoc

Location

Ong Lang Beach is around 20 minutes from Duong Dong, the main town and 30 minutes from Phu Quoc Airport. It’s a good place to escape. It’s a distance away from Long Beach -  the busier part of the island. These days there are an increasing number of eating options around Ong Lang Beach too. I prefer the quieter Ong Lang Beach area.


Review

Coco Palm’s best asset is its beach. 26 basic, brick bungalow style rooms look across green grounds to a tranquil cove of white sand beach.

Rooms have some clumsy quirks but you won’t be spending much time in them. The beach and the grounds are the place to be. Basic rooms (Superior Sea View) are 30sqm and higher category rooms run up to 40sqm (Deluxe Sea View). The upside of the higher category rooms is marginal.

Rusty Compass recommendations are always independent. We recommend the stuff we think is worth knowing about. That’s it. No money changes hands for a listing and hotels and resorts have no say over what we write. We’ve stayed at Coco Palm on several occasions and always paid our way.
