Booked Puka for three nights through Ctrip, which perfectly rounded off our May Day trip to Vietnam.
The king-size bed was actually two beds pushed together, making it incredibly spacious. The room itself was large with a balcony, and the bathroom even had a bathtub and bath salts. We got 4 glass bottles of water daily, and the bedside speaker played radio with excellent sound quality, creating a great ambiance. The TV offered YouTube and CCTV. The room was even cleaned twice a day! A garden king room with double breakfast for just over 1000 RMB – you can't beat that price.
Breakfast was from 6 AM to 11 AM, so one meal could easily last until dinner. There was a huge variety, and the baked goods were delicious. The iced coconut coffee was absolutely divine. The hotel food wasn't overly expensive, comparable to prices in China. We had the seafood platter shown in the picture for just over 400 RMB, and it tasted great. Room service was available late into the night. The hotel's location is a bit far from the city center, and there aren't many shops within walking distance, but you can order food delivery via Grab.
The environment was impeccable. We were blessed with four days of sunshine during our May Day trip, with temperatures around 30 degrees Celsius – perfect for swimming without getting cold and sunbathing without overheating. While the public areas weren't huge, they were beautiful, and taking great photos was effortless.
The pool was open until 7 PM, but we even swam late at night and no one stopped us. Towels were provided during operating hours. The best part was that even after checking out, we could still use the spa for a free shower after swimming, complete with towels, lockers, and a hairdryer. We left for the airport feeling fresh and happy. The staff all spoke English well and had great attitudes.
If you can ride, I recommend renting a 50cc scooter. There's a rental shop about a 10-minute walk away (search on Google Maps), costing around 40 RMB a day, with a deposit required. We paid a 500,000 VND cash deposit. A scooter is truly the best way to experience Vietnam. You can ride for 30 minutes to Hoi An Ancient Town and Son Tra Peninsula – it's amazing, but be sure to wear plenty of sunscreen!
When will Beijing have direct flights to Da Nang? I'll stop going to Sanya then!😅
