Description
Bo Resort has a large grassy lawn running down to a cluster of whitewashed deckchairs and umbrellas while the lovely bungalows run back up the hillside. Super spacious, with beaded doorways, bright yellow and blue detailing and large relaxing balconies, firm beds and immaculate bathrooms, the well appointed bungalows look out over the manicured gardens and out to sea. There's a well-placed beachfront restaurant with whitewashed settings and an excellent view. Overall, Bo is an outstanding and very tasteful option -- a refreshing splash of colour, that, if it's in your budget, should be a winning choice during your stay on Phu Quoc.

Not quite paradise -
By rogerramjet ( total comments: 1  More information please ) Stayed here 3/2008
We stayed a week in early March and the location was beautiful but the service and prices were less than desirable. Trapped by the nature of this remote location down a dirt road the restaurant prices were exorbitant and charges for simple necessities like bottled water and morning coffees were extortionist. Triple normal charges!!
We were poorly advised to 'go into town' to make any tour bookings, whereas the resort next door was happy to make arrangements for us?! The rental motorbike we used was poorly maintained and bordering on dangerous.
On the morning we left they demanded cash payment instead of credit card by suggesting the phone line was down, (but then rang us a taxi on the same phone line !) and turned off our water to do works so we couldn't shower or use the toilet. The power was already gone due to a rain storm the previous night.
Entirely unsatisafactory and a real disappointment. The pristine location rescued some small enjoyment of this sad end to our Vietnam trip.

Food was great -

We stayed over Xmas break so it was busy with many families - as such it wasn't as quiet & serene as we expected -- however the food and service was spectacular and likely it would have been exactly what we had been looking for at other times of the year.


Calm and Relaxing -

We stayed a week (and left the resort only once), and could have easily stayed a month! We came to get away from, the crowds and found a slice of paradise complete with hillside gardens down to the beach. Great food, cozy bungalows and is worth the bumpy ride out from town.
