PHU QUOC
WHERE TO STAY ON PHU QUOC?
We started our trip through Vietnam with a four days stop on the beautiful island Phu Quoc. Staying at JW Marriott Phu Quoc Emerald Bay was definitely the best decision. After some more hectical travelings in Cambodia, this was the best place to relax we could ever imagine.
ABOUT JW MARRIOTT PHU QUOC EMERALD BAY
Hospitality designer Bill Bensley designed this fantastic international 5-Star hotel, which used to be a French University back in the 19th century. The so called "Lamarck University" is a combination of amazing service, comfortable rooms and the best Asian and international cuisine. Let´s dive into this fairytale world-class resort which has already won several international prices...
OUR ROOM
Our cozy room reminded us of staying in a castle. The spacious rooms with high ceilings and so many nice little details made our stay unforgettable. The pictures speak for themselves...

In this restaurant not only your daily breakfast is served, but you can also have lunch or dinner. They serve Vietnamese, Japanese and classic French food.
