Phu Quoc Travel: The Jewel of Vietnam’s Coastline with JTB-TNT

Floating in the warm turquoise waters of the Gulf of Thailand, Phu Quoc is Vietnam’s answer to paradise. Known as the "Pearl Island," it offers a rare convergence of UNESCO-protected biosphere reserves, pristine white sands, and some of the most opulent resorts in Southeast Asia.

For the luxury traveler, Phu Quoc travel is no longer just about beach lounging; it is about exclusivity. It is about discovering hidden islets on a private catamaran, dining under the stars, and experiencing the seamless fusion of Vietnamese hospitality and world-class luxury standards.

JTB-TNT invites you to explore this tropical sanctuary not as a tourist, but as a distinguished guest, with an itinerary crafted to perfection.

The Pearl Island: Nature’s Masterpiece

Phu Quoc sets itself apart from other Asian beach destinations through its raw, protected beauty. More than half of the island is a National Park, ensuring that despite development, the heartbeat of the jungle remains strong.

1. Private Island Hopping in the An Thoi Archipelago

The southern tip of Phu Quoc is home to a cluster of uninhabited islets that rival the Maldives in clarity and color.

• The JTB-TNT Difference: Skip the crowded wooden tour boats. We arrange a private high-speed canoe or a luxury catamaran just for you.

• The Experience: Drop anchor at Hon Mong Tay (Fingernail Island) or Hon Gam Ghi for private snorkeling sessions. The coral reefs here are kaleidoscopic, and with a private guide, you explore the underwater world at your own rhythm, undisturbed.

2. The Northern Wilderness & Starfish Beach

While the south is famous for beaches, the north is the realm of the jungle.

• Forest Bathing: Take a guided private trek through the primeval forests of Phu Quoc National Park. Breathing in the pure air and listening to the symphony of nature is a true luxury in today’s busy world.

• Rach Vem (Starfish Beach): Visit the floating fishing villages and the famous beach where red starfish illuminate the white sands. Our guides know the perfect timing to visit when the tide is low and the crowds are absent.

Sanctuary for the Soul: Iconic Luxury Stays

Phu Quoc has become a canvas for the world’s leading resort architects. JTB-TNT holds privileged partnerships with the island’s most prestigious properties, ensuring you receive VIP treatment upon arrival.

• JW Marriott Phu Quoc Emerald Bay: Designed by the visionary Bill Bensley, this resort is a whimsical reimagining of a fictional 19th-century French university. It is not just a hotel; it is an architectural marvel located on the stunning Khem Beach.

• Regent Phu Quoc: The epitome of modern sophistication. With all-suite and villa accommodations, this property redefines personalized luxury with its "Pocket of Serenity" concept, perfect for travelers seeking absolute privacy.

• La Veranda Resort: For those who adore the Indochine aesthetic, this boutique MGallery collection property offers the romance of a French colonial mansion by the sea, surrounded by lush tropical gardens.

A Taste of the Island: Peppers, Pearls, and Palates

Phu Quoc travel is a sensory journey. The island is world-famous for two things: the finest fish sauce and the most aromatic pepper.

• The Pepper Farm Experience: We arrange private visits to organic pepper plantations. Walk among the green vines, smell the pungent aroma of fresh peppercorns, and enjoy a farm-to-table lunch prepared by the local owners.

• Sunset Fine Dining: Phu Quoc is celebrated for having the most dramatic sunsets in Vietnam.

  • Suggestion: Enjoy a cocktail at the INK 360 rooftop bar (InterContinental) for a panoramic view, followed by an exquisite seafood dinner at The Peppertree, where local ingredients meet French culinary techniques.

Our local connections allow us to open doors others cannot—whether it is a private tour of a pearl farm to see how gem-quality pearls are harvested, or a chartered sunset cruise with a private chef on board.

Practical Notes for Your Island Retreat

• Best Time to Visit: The dry season runs from November to April. During these months, the sea is calm, the sky is cloudless, and humidity is low—perfect for all water activities.

• The "Pearl" Souvenir: If you wish to purchase high-quality pearls, let your JTB-TNT guide escort you to reputable establishments to ensure authenticity and value.

Phu Quoc is a place where time slows down. It is the feeling of warm sand between your toes, the taste of fresh catch by the ocean, and the sight of the sun dipping below the horizon in a blaze of violet and orange.

Let JTB-TNT curate your escape to this tropical eden. We combine the wild beauty of Vietnam with the refined service standards of Japan to create a holiday that is as flawless as it is unforgettable.
