This Vietnam Island Is The Next Must-Experience ‘Destination Dupe’

Destination Dupes continue to be a leading travel trend as travelers are seeking out vacation destinations that are “lesser-known options that offer similar experiences without the costs and crowds,” according to a BBC article

Knowing this, we encourage travelers to experience Regent Phu Quoc’s luxury beachfront resort, ideally situated on the pristine island of Phu Quoc, Vietnam. Here, guests can immerse themselves in the resort's powdery white sand beaches, warm turquoise waters and lush emerald jungles, all while taking in the island’s famed sunsets, best experienced from the resort’s unforgettable Ocean View and Skyview Suites. With a shorter flying distance from U.S. hotspots – notably New York and Los Angeles – in comparison to popular islands such as Bali and the Maldives, Phu Quoc and the destination’s premier luxury resort, Regent Phu Quoc beckons to be explored and enjoyed by travelers. For those already in Asia and looking to extend travel plans or wanting a swift getaway, Phu Quoc is just a near-flight from neighboring countries throughout the continent. 

Culinary enthusiasts will come to find that two worlds collide at Oku, the property’s signature Michelin-recognized restaurant, whereby contemporary Japanese-French cuisine is presented to awaken guests’ palates. Whether it be indulging in the finest beef cuts in the Salon de Boeuf or the freshest sashimi at the Omakase counter, Oku delivers an elevated and immersive dining experience that guests will be talking about long after. Also, an assortment of refreshing Mediterranean-inspired cuisine can be found at the casual, beachfront venue, Ocean Club, which pairs perfectly with a glass of wine from the restaurant’s international wine list curated by the resort's on-property sommelier. Encompassing the flavors of the Orient, alongside the Middle East, Regent Phu Quoc transports diners to each locale all while staying on-property. 

Guests can fill their days with excitement and intrigue as Regent Phu Quoc offers an impressive lineup of unique activities that only a resort located on the beautiful island of Phu Quoc can provide. From a wellness-focused rooftop aerial yoga session to a personalized Picnic On The Beach and Serenity Yacht experience, in addition to culturally immersive offerings like the Discovery Pearl Farm experience and Hon Thom Cable Car, the property invites guests to uncover the hidden treasures of Phu Quoc at an approachable price point.
