Shells Resort offers an airport transfer service, which is very convenient. It's about a 30-minute drive from the airport and centrally located, making it a great base for exploring the central part of the island. If you don't want to switch hotels every day, you can book two nights here to explore the central area before moving on. To book the transfer, reserve in advance on Ctrip, enter your flight number, time, and contact number. Hotel staff will be waiting at the airport exit.
(Here's a tip for quick Phú Quốc visa-on-arrival processing so hotel staff don't wait too long: Download the entry form online before leaving your country – there are guides on 'Xiao Hong Shu' on how to download it. Prepare a 2-inch white-background photo, print your flight and hotel itineraries in advance, and buy a local SIM card/eSIM on Taobao beforehand. This will make border crossing super smooth!)
**Hotel Environment:** We booked a private garden villa with a garden view. It offered great value for money and excellent privacy. The shower and toilet are separate, which is great – no crowding in the room after swimming. There's a bathtub (bring your own disposable tub liner). The hot water storage isn't very large, so take quick showers, as the water can get cold later. For a bath, you'll need to boil water.
The bedding is clean, and flip-flops and bathrobes are provided. The pool and beach are both great.
I brought my own clothesline, and it was very convenient to dry clothes in the small garden.
The hotel offers a #0 shuttle service which makes getting around very easy.
If your luggage is heavy, the staff will help you carry it to your garden entrance and will also pick you up to go to the front desk for check-out.
Breakfast is quite rich, and the environment is beautiful.
Overall, if friends visit again, I would give Shells Resort a five-star recommendation.
DIAH at the front desk was very attentive and even helped us call a taxi when we left. However, when traveling, always confirm the price before getting into any vehicle.
