Is Radisson Blu Resort Phu Quoc Worth It? Our Verdict
Yes, for families and groups who want a big beach resort near Phu Quoc’s theme parks: the lagoon pool, the free kids club, the pool villas and the west-facing sunsets are real strengths. It is a weaker choice for couples who want quiet or anyone who wants to walk to local restaurants: it is large, busy in holiday weeks and 17 km from Duong Dong.
Facts checked October 2026 against the hotel’s published information.

Strengths and weak spots
0.9–4.4 km to the parks
Strength: next to the parks
From the resort you are minutes from Grand World, VinWonders and the Safari, with Corona Casino next door. Families can do a park in the morning and be back at the pool by mid-afternoon.
Good for theme-park and Safari trips with children. Less good for travellers who never plan to visit them.

West-facing · Calm November to March
Strength: a real beach with sunsets
The resort fronts a long, sandy part of Bai Dai with parasols, loungers and free water sports. The sun sets over open sea, which hotels on the east coast or in town cannot offer.
Good for dry-season beach holidays. Less good for June to September, when the swell arrives.

514 rooms · 11 sea-view Deluxe rooms
Weak spot: size and views
This is a big resort. The pool and breakfast fill up in holidays, and most rooms look over gardens or inland towards neighbouring buildings; true sea-view rooms are few.
Good for guests who plan to be out most of the day. Less good for couples looking for an intimate, quiet hideaway.

Who Radisson Blu Phu Quoc suits, and when
01
Best for families
A free kids club, under-12s free in existing beds, a children’s pool, and lofts or villas with kitchens.
02
Best months
December to March for a flat sea and sunsets; April and November for quieter pools.
03
Book the right category
If the view matters, book Sea View by name; if space matters, the loft apartment or a villa.
Honest note
If you want character, a small boutique feel or local street food on your doorstep, this is the wrong pick: it is a large international resort in a purpose-built leisure district.
Questions about whether Radisson Blu Phu Quoc is right for you
Is Radisson Blu Phu Quoc good for couples?
It works for couples outside school holidays who want sunsets, a big pool and easy evenings at Grand World. It is less romantic than smaller resorts: with 514 rooms, families and groups set the mood at the pool. Book a Sea View room or a Sea View Suite, and travel in March, April or November for the calmest stay.
How does Radisson Blu compare with the Vinpearl resorts nearby?
Radisson Blu is a single international-brand resort with its own section of beach, run by Radisson. The Vinpearl resorts in the same district are larger Vingroup properties, and some of their packages bundle theme-park access. Choose Radisson Blu for its lagoon pool, kids club and villas; compare the Vinpearl options if park tickets in the price matter most.
Is Radisson Blu Phu Quoc too far from everything?
It is far from Duong Dong town (about 17 km) and the south (about 45 km), but close to the north’s main attractions: Grand World, VinWonders, the Safari and Corona Casino are all within about 5 km. If your plans centre on those, the location is an advantage; if you want town life, it is not.
Is Radisson Blu Phu Quoc a five-star resort?
Yes. It is listed as a five-star resort under Radisson’s upper-upscale Blu brand, and it opened in August 2018 with 514 rooms, suites and villas, a lagoon pool, a kids club and event spaces. Five-star here means a full-service resort with 24-hour room service and several outlets, rather than a small luxury hideaway.
What tends to disappoint guests at Radisson Blu Phu Quoc?
From our reading of the published facts, the likely let-downs are predictable ones: a busy pool and breakfast in peak weeks, a room that looks over gardens or inland rather than the sea, and the 17 km to Duong Dong. Knowing that in advance, and booking the view you want, removes most of the surprise.
Is Radisson Blu Phu Quoc good value?
It tends to be good value for families, because children under 12 stay free in existing beds, the kids club is free and the parks are on the doorstep. Value drops for couples paying peak-season prices for a room they barely use. Compare refundable and breakfast-included rates side by side before you decide.
