What it is

A modern all-suite and villa resort on a paradisiacal island, with a wellness-inspired spa, six inventive bars and restaurants, a yacht for sunset cruises, and bottomless activities.

What it isn't

The Vietnam you expect. Activities curated for guests here include snorkeling nearby coral reefs, sea kayaking, aerial yoga, and cooking classes with their chef.

What we think

Mirror-like private plunge or infinity pools. Daybeds flanked by lush, manicured gardens. Al fresco showers. Gratis snacks. They’re all part of the V.I.P. amenities each and every guest of Regent experiences, whether they’re in the “starter” Garden Pool Suite (a whopping 1,313 square feet, by the way) or the One Bedroom Sky Pool Villa—which has a panoramic overlook of the surrounding sea from its 1,776-square-foot floor plan. In short: every room option here is pure perfection, down to the 400 thread count sheets, white goose down duvets, Bose Soundbar and luxe Acqua di Parma toiletries. We love that they shower guests with comped perks, including mini bar drinks and snacks, loaner watercraft (non motorized), three pieces of laundry per room a day, coffee and tea, and so much more. While you’re here, don’t miss the champagne sunset cruise—complete with mango sticky rice, for a local touch—on their yacht, aptly called Serenity.

You're here because

You’re bringing the fam, and the resort keeps kids delighted—with everything from soap bubble making and treasure hunts to origami and lantern making classes.

The Moment

After a day spent with your toes in the sand, you’re nothing less than hangry…and only carbs will satisfy you. Blessedly, the hotel’s Rice Market is the perfect respite—with local tiger prawn spring rolls and wok-fried Phu Quoc lobster just waiting to make your night.
