In the Best Islands category, Phu Quoc is the only representative of Vietnam to be honored, ranking 5th in the list of 10 islands in Asia, up one place from 6th place in 2024. This shows the satisfaction of tourists when coming to Phu Quoc and the quality of services on the island has increased.
Phu Quoc continues to be in the top of the most wonderful islands in the region and the world. |
The fact that Phu Quoc continues to be in the "green eyes" of international media shows that the island's popularity has not decreased. Since 2023, the island has been continuously honored in the "best" lists of the region and the world from leading prestigious travel magazines. Typically, in 2024, Ngoc Island was voted the second most beautiful in the world by Travel + Leisure, after the famous Maldives, surpassing other famous names in the region such as Bali and Phuket.
It is not difficult to explain why Phu Quoc is becoming a rising star on the international tourism map. The Pearl Island attracts tourists thanks to its fine white sand beaches, clear blue water, especially its diverse flora and fauna ecosystem and colorful coral reefs. In particular, the South of the island is home to Bai Kem and Bai Sao, which are among the most beautiful beaches on the planet, with fine white sand like gelato and emerald green water, creating unforgettable experiences for visitors.

Among them, JW Marriott Phu Quoc Emerald Bay Resort ranked first, and New World Phu Quoc ranked 10th. If JW Marriott Phu Quoc is a masterpiece of a resort designed by Bill Bensley with the theme of a fictional French university in the 1920s, New World Phu Quoc attracts tourists traveling with families and groups of friends with villas designed in the traditional Vietnamese 3-room style and the style of coastal fishing villages, with each villa having its own swimming pool. Both resorts are located on the poetic Kem Beach, where the world's leading prestigious international resort brands gather.
In addition to the titles favored by international media, Phu Quoc has also affirmed its status as an increasingly world-class destination when it was chosen to host the Asia- Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Forum in 2027. This not only marks a positive signal for the strong boom of the Pearl Island tourism industry, but also represents an opportunity, potential and challenge to help Phu Quoc rise to become a leading tourism, economic and service center in the region.
