The 78-room Sea Star Resort is a friendly budget hotel with a convenient location on sandy beach a 15-minute walk from the center of Duong Dong. Its rooms -- some of which are housed in cute bungalows -- are simple, with generic decor in dark brown hues, and basic amenities such as air-conditioning, older flat-panel TVs, minibars, and electric kettles. The pool is pleasant and relaxing, with serene sea views and a few loungers, and the beach offers great sunset views. The restaurant serves average Vietnamese and international fare, while a thatched bar keeps drinks flowing during the day at the beach. The property is one of the top picks in Phu Quoc for tour operator TUI, and it can feel overrun with groups at times. Neighboring Thanh Kieu Beach Resort is cheaper and has more charm, but lacks a pool.

The Thanh Kieu Beach Resort is a simple but charming mid-range property built on a long, sandy beach an easy walk from a handful of casual restaurants and cafes. The focus here is on relaxation, and the hotel’s 40 rooms -- each housed in a cute bungalow with a pleasant patio and outdoor bathroom -- offer a semi-unplugged vacation, with no TVs or phones. The hotel does offer free Wi-Fi, though. A nice breakfast spread complete with made-to-order eggs and fresh fruit is served daily at the garden restaurant, and lunch and dinner are available at the beach bar at reasonable rates. With no pool and no spa, this boutique is better suited for couples wanting to spend their time at the beach or exploring the island than for families. Those seeking something a little nicer may want to compare rates at the lovely Daisy Resort.

The 58-room Cassia Cottage is an upscale boutique known for its excellent Spice House restaurant and great beach bar, both of which have stunning sunset views. The property is intimate and beautiful, with lovely gardens and a long beach offering direct access to the many casual beach bars and restaurants around. Rooms range from cozy and traditional to large and stylish, but all feature well-stocked minibars, four-poster beds with mosquito nets, balconies or terraces, and rain showers. Many also have panoramic ocean views. The sea can be rough between May and September, but the hotel has three pools, including one for kids, an infinity-edge one, and an adults' only one tucked in the gardens.
