Phu Quoc Now Has Its Own Sky Tower

InterContinental Phu Quoc Long Beach Resort on Phu Quoc now boasts some of the most luxurious accommodation on the island with its Sky Tower recently opened for reservations.

Dominating the two wings of the resort and the popular Long Beach, the tower offers some of the most spectacular views over the island. The tower hosts one-, two- and three-bedroom suites with prices starting from USD300. 

Good news is that you can get your fair share of panoramic views without staying at the hotel, too. There is a stylish – and relatively expensive – INK 360 bar located ont the 19th floor and offering unparalleled vistas over the ocean and stunning sunsets.

Phu Quoc, a lush, green island gem off the southern coast of Vietnam has flown under the radar for a long time, but the island has recently been undergoing impressive development in order to accommodate the growing number of tourists seeking white sand beaches, tranquil blue waters, and breathtaking green jungles.

With a new international airport, the most popular way to get to Phu Quoc is by plane. From Hanoi, a direct flight will be about 2 hours long and cost between USD150 or USD190 roundtrip. From Ho Chi Minh City, the direct flight is only about an hour and a roundtrip ticket will range in cost from USD60 to USD100.
