Regent Phu Quoc

Just off the southwest coast of Vietnam, Regent Phu Quoc offers jungle and ocean adventures immersing travelers into the destination’s natural environments. Spend the day soaking up the sun on the blue waters while body boarding, dinghy sailing, kayaking, windsurfing or stand-up paddle boarding. Travelers who would rather stay on land can go on an afternoon trek through Tien Son Hilltop and the lush jungles of northwest Phu Quoc island to conquer a set of steep wooden ladders. Or get a birds-eye view of the turquoise sea and green jungle while riding Hon Thom Phu Quoc Cable Car, the longest in the world. For the ultimate luxury excursion, book a ride on the resort’s private catamaran, Serenity.
