Phu Quoc EcoLodge

We had a lovely stay, the accommodation was clean and beautiful. The accommodation is very one with nature, with the trees trying to take over the room and bathroom. There is decking situated right on the lake which is beautiful and very peaceful, a great place to sit and read, play games, reflect on life. There is a great simple but tasty breakfast menu.  It is a real shame they no longer offer dinner or lunch options, could otherwise easily spend a whole day here.  The staff were very friendly, attentive and helpful. You can hire scooters and get information for interesting things to do or see in the local area. We were given some excellent local restaurant recommendations which were very close by within walking distance. The beach is very close again walking distance and a great spot for sunset views.  There are a lot of dogs, that are friendly, one in particular can bark at you quite a bit but that’s about it, they mostly all want cuddles and stoking.  It can be hard to get a grab taxi at times, but there is Phong at the accommodation who provides a taxi service, but notice may need to be given in advance otherwise they will also be able to contact a taxi for you.  This is a great location to visit starfish beach, restaurants on stilts in the water, pepper and bee farms.  All in all an excellent stay!

Parfait, très bel endroit

The echo lodge has pleasant and very helpful staff but the actual decking surrounding it is very rickety and untidy. There is an old boat in corner (like a shipwreck). They have a lot of dogs ( which was ok for us). The actual beach opposite is definitely not one to lie on. It has litter everywhere and so has the sea. The actual rooms are nice but small.
