Absolutely everything. I loved the location, the views, the food, the staff, and my bungalow. It is quiet and away from civilization, which is what I wanted. Son, the owner, was sooooo nice and accommodating. After traveling all of Vietnam for three weeks, this was the perfect way to end my holiday. I will definitely come back! Thank you for the best experience ever thanks 🙏🏼

Absolutely nothing

If total relaxation is what you desire , surround by the sound of the waves , sand between your toes and hospitality that far exceeds any I have ever experienced, this is the place for you . The food is tasty and a great variety freshly prepared and served by the family . Son and his wife have a wonderful team to support him and the grounds are kept immaculate. Security provided by Lu , the family dog who only barks when non residents appear on the beach or at the entrance of the property . Bike rental available and also a driver available for tours or transfer from airport / ferry . A real joy to stay there , don’t think twice if a room is available take it with confidence you’ll enjoy beyond your expectations, I certainly did .

Leaving

This is a special place, not for everybody, but for those who seek a quiet, relaxed and laid back small resort off the beaten track, full of rustic charm. I endorse all the positive comments already published. I add a few comments which I didn't see mentioned. Parents of young children should be aware that the beautiful, clean little beach in front of the 10 or so bungalows is not typical of many of the beaches on Phu Quoc. The sea becomes deep very quickly here. especially at high tide. The bungalows are set back into the trees so do not impose upon the environment, however, this could also explain why the solar heating is not great at producing hot water. The restaurant offers a good and tasty selection of Vietnamese and western cuisine, all freshly cooked and at very resonable prices. The hotel encourages guests to book their meals early by offering a small discount, but more importantly your meal is ready at your chosen time. Most hotels in Vietnam provide two small bottles of water per day, per room, enough for a couple of mugs of coffee, and then charge premium rates for extra water. Here, litre size bottles are provided free of charge - you just take what you need. For those who like to watch tv there is also a selection of cable channels, including Netflix and K-plus, which televises Premier Leaague foofball matches live - this again is very unusual.

Beautiful beach. Lovely simple bungalows right on the beach - couldn’t be any closer to the sea! Super friendly and helpful staff. Great food which you pre order by writing it in a notebook on the bar. This place is so laid back and chilled out it’s unreal. If you’re looking for entertainment or to walk to other restaurants this is NOT the place for you as there is a 1km gravel/bumpy track to get to it. If you want to chill out, relax on the beach and swim then this place is perfect. Big comfortable bed with mosquito nets, lovely clean and cool room and bathroom. Owner organised scooter hire and transfer to airport. It’s wonderful .

Nothing to comment !

Son, the owner has created a very unspoiled and natural homestay resort which sits on the edge of a small clean beach - the photos don't do it justice. Him and Ming made us feel very welcome and after travelling North to South and after the craziness of HCM City this was the perfect place to relax. There's a fridge full of cold drinks and ice cream in the dining area to buy and lovely home cooked meals - the curry was amazing. Free use of kayaks was a bonus and foot washing hoses outside each bungalow was good. We stayed in a large beach facing bungalow which was clean and cool. Ming arranged a trip to star fish beach and helped us get to our next hotel on the beach south of Phu Quoc city - its commercialised and the sea here is full of rubbish and smells after a storm last night - in hindsight we wished we'd stayed longer at Gold Sand Beach. If you like a peaceful, remote setting with minimal people and no blaring music on a beautiful beach with a welcoming host....

The road but that adds to the sense of remoteness

Gold Sands was idyllic. So peaceful. We booked to stay for 2 nights but stayed for 4. The bungalow was sparkling clean and comfortable and all the staff were so lovely and helpful. From walking along the beach and taking the scooter out we know we made the best choice with where to stay. This part was most peaceful and relaxed. The food was great and reasonably priced with big portion sizes. Breakfast was great. The seafood soup with rice noodles was my favourite 😊 You need your own transport ideally if you want to travel further afield easily. There is a beautiful, friendly dog at the property who is about to have puppies. (Good luck)!! ❤️ If we ever travel to Phu Quoc again we would 100% stay here.

Such a pleasant, peaceful location and the resort is right on the beach. Son, the host, is so kind, helpful and welcoming and nothing is too much trouble to do for you. There are other restaurants in walking distance so a good choice of places to eat. The room was very good with TV and WiFi and kettle. The breakfasts were plentiful and very good.

Minor issues - There were two power cuts - a back up generator might be useful to have! You need to order evening meals two hours in advance so have to plan ahead where you want to eat.

Such a lovely place to just relax for a few days at the end of my busy trip to Vietnam. The hospitality from Son and team is amazing and the food is delicious for breakfast, lunch and dinner 😋 I really enjoyed my time here and the sunsets were amazing.

Be sure to enquire for a lift to and from the airport with the owner and he will arrange with their driver Minh, I got a taxi there from the airport and it was much more expensive than when Minh took me back.

The location made this stay fantastic. Right on the beach. Lovely clean swimmable water - no need for swim shoes. The owner Son and his team are lovely. I liked it so much I returned for a further week later on in December. I would definitely love to visit again in the future.

We enjoyed our stay here a lot. Very nice hosts, good food, sea is very clean when weather is not windy, transparent water. Beautiful view. It is remote resort with bungalows, we rented motorbike in resort to drive around. We also got transfer to and from the airport, that was nice. Perfect place for quiet time on the sea. I hope we’ll go back there.
