In the past, when people mentioned Phu Quoc Island, they often imagined untouched beaches and wild natural beauty. But in recent years, the island has awakened like a sleeping princess, with countless international resorts and large-scale entertainment projects attracting visitors from around the world. Along with that transformation, the untouched charm of old Phu Quoc has slowly faded, giving way to modern comforts and luxury.
As someone born and raised here, I feel both proud and happy to witness my hometown shining brighter on the map of Vietnam. Yet, I still long for those hidden corners – quiet beaches, coconut-lined paths, and simple landscapes that few travelers know about. For me, sharing these lesser-known places is not only a way to preserve childhood memories but also an invitation for visitors to discover a very different, very local side of Phu Quoc.
About Author
Hello, my name is An Nhien, a local of Phu Quoc. Thank you for visiting my blog – a personal space where I share my love and experiences about the island, as well as a travel project I’m building with passion and dedication.
I’ve always loved traveling and exploring new places. But it wasn’t until I started working in the tourism industry that I truly “came back home” and began to explore my island deeply. Every time I guided visitors, every time I was asked about hidden spots, good local food, or tours worth trying, I realized that Phu Quoc has so many treasures unknown to most people.
That’s when I started writing. This blog became my travel notebook – a place where I record what I’ve seen, share my recommendations, and offer lessons learned from each journey around the island.
My Approach & Values
I am not a travel blogger who comes and goes. I live here every day. I witness the changing seasons of the sea, the new roads being built, and the way the island transforms year after year. More importantly, I understand what travelers really need when they come to Phu Quoc – whether it’s their very first visit or a return trip.
For me, travel doesn’t have to be noisy or luxurious. Sometimes, all it takes is the right place, the right people, and the right experience to make a journey unforgettable. That’s why everything I share here is meant to be authentic, practical, and heartfelt – so you can use it directly for your own trip.
