Tan Son Nhat Con Dao Resort

It is so nice place.

Really a great place - you are 100,000 Dong out of town by taxi/ GRAB, or 5,000 Dong by rental bike - charge your card at Circle K, and rent multiple bikes with one account. Park in the TNGO stations.

We were staying at Tan Son Nhat for little over a week and had a wonderful experience. The location is absolutely beautiful and the beach is stunning! We stayed in one of the bungalows with garden view and even if the room perhaps was a tiny bit run down it’s was very charming, spacious and there was really nothing that bothered us! Even with the garden view we were just a few steps away from the beach. Staff was always friendly and we felt very comfortable staying here with our son, 6 months. Would definitely come back!

This hotel is located on the beach unlike a lot of hotels in Con Dao that say they are but are actually located across the road from the beach. We had a garden view bungalow though we could see the ocean from our verandah. The room was a good size with a huge open air bathroom. The ocean view ones which were booked out had a much smaller bathroom. The resort is definitely in need of some TLC especially the deck chairs on the beach. The buffet breakfast was okay with an egg station and Vietnamese food. Location was great, easy walking distance to restaurants, markets and jetty.

We stayed for 3 nights in one of the beachside bungalows. No issues with accommodation. Breakfast was good - you could get pho made to order and a buffet with a wide selection but more Vietnamese type food but I would suggest going early . Beachfront was clean ( rubbish that had been bought in but the sea was cleared up the first afternoon) in the three days we stayed there and the water was beautiful. There were 4 hammocks strung up between the trees on the beach. When hot it was good to have the trees to shelter you from the sun. Staff were helpful although English spoken was limited. About a five minute walk from Bar2000 and the new ferry port (not open when we’re there) and 15-20min walk got you to most of the restaurants/ mini marts in town.

When we arrived the staff had no idea about our booking, after a long day of travelling this was more than a little bit annoying. After about 30 minutes and proving we actually had a paid reservation for a beachfront bungalow there was no such accommodation available. One lady at reception seemed perplexed as to why we hadn't booked on Agoda. I'm sorry if you offer your hotel on multiple 3rd party sites you should have the capacity to monitor and service them all. We got told that we would have to spend the night in a lesser room and we could move the next day. Having booked 9 months prior if we chose that room it would have been fine but we didn't. They didn't offer an explanation or any sort of remuneration for the error, not even a free beer at the bar. We did check the current rate for the rooms and we had paid substantially less than the going rate for the premier bungalow and all the other rooms but that's why you book early and take advantage of flash sales. We shouldn't have been disadvantaged for being organised. Next morning I went to reception and they seemed to have no record of us 'needing to move rooms' so I had to go through the whole thing again. It was awkard for them and awkard for us, we are not difficult customers we just want what we paid for. When we finally got our room it was excellent, as described and despite the rocky start we were happy. Due to the language barrier we are unsure where the problem occured.

We had a beach bungalow, which we highly recommend. You open the doors and step on a bounty beach with palm trees, amazing! However, rooms were rather outdated and windows and doors didn’t fully close, so lots of bugs in the room and some moult in the shower. Breakfast was good, definitely if you like Vietnamese breakfast. Rather early though, and in general a lot of noise till late (11pm) and early morning (from 6am). So little too to sleep. Bar and restaurant of the hotel have slow staff, don’t see you at all, not much inspiring food. Bar at the beach is really good though. All in all, we think the resort is located on the best beach of Con Dao (and cleaned from the loads of plastic you see elsewhere), you have a scenic place close to city Center and with the beach bungalows you’ll love this place.
