An ideal luxury travel destination for families, the new InterContinental® Phu Quoc Long Beach Resort, Vietnam, which opened on 28 June, has plenty of activities, services, and amenities tailored especially for those travelling with children.

Located on the largest island in South Vietnam, Phu Quoc is a tropical island destination that is as unique as it is beautiful. Listed by UNESCO as World Biosphere Reserve in 2006, the island of Phu Quoc itself is covered with at least 50% of National Park, and is home to world famous pearl farms, as well as thriving marine life and rich coral reefs of the surrounding turquoise sea that are sure to make any family stay at InterContinental® Phu Quoc Long Beach Resort one that is truly memorable.

The resort itself sits along the tail end of Long Beach, a mere 15 minutes’ drive from the international airport and 20 minutes from the island’s main town of Duong Dong. This spot along the 20 kilometre stretch of beach is the perfect place for families to experience the picturesque tropical beaches and pristine waters of Phu Quoc, as well as the cultural charm of nearby towns and magnificent ocean sunsets.

Big Activities for Little Guests

InterContinental® Phu Quoc Long Beach Resort offers an incredible 250-square-metre Planet Trekkers Kids’ Club for families. Parents can be assured that their 4-12-year-olds will be fully supervised and secure, all the while having an unforgettable time forming new friendships and engaging with fun, lively, culturally-inclined indoor and outdoor activities. These include games and themed activities that introduce children to the vibrant Vietnamese culture, the arts of dancing, acting, and crafting, such as conical hat and lotus lantern making to be worn and lit during the daily sunset ritual. Also featured are fun drama lessons, dress-ups and a show at the resort’s auditorium for their biggest fans – the parents. Water-based activities at ‘Splash!’ family pool include time on the water slide and games, feeding the Koi fish, and hunting the gnomes in the herb garden.

InterContinental® Phu Quoc Long Beach Resort also has a dedicated children’s dining area, which doubles as an exciting ‘Kids Can Cook’ cooking school, leaving children entertained for hours on end. Guided by the resort’s chefs, supervised by professional associates, children can not only learn and practise preparing their favourite treats, but also gain knowledge of local ingredients.
The new InterContinental® Phu Quoc Long Beach Resort features a number of facilities to occupy children while parents enjoy their time relaxing at the exclusive HARNN Heritage Spa, or enjoying a glass of champagne at the incredible INK 360 Sky Bar, with 360 degree views of Phu Quoc and the surrounding waters.
