Awesome video. Let's call it "boring" so that it doesn't get overrun by the tourists 😀

[@GreenyTravels]

So peaceful there

[@nightrider12soul]

Too late,is completely overrun with tourism. Was there nine years ago.Nice too stay for a week. Check the Long Beach.There is shack after the shack and guesthouse are everywhere.The sea food is very good.In the beach the bars rent you the bad and per hours and expensive. Still if you are with the bike you can find nice places. One more paradise lost. There is international airport too.

[@debh3404]

What an amazing place! Whoever called it boring is just jealous that you've been there and they can't go.

[@GreenyTravels]

It’s awesome

[@user-jshsd2]

I've been and it's extremely boring, polluted, way overpriced and littered with trash. If you're getting info from YT, you're getting fake news. Read what Vietnam's own VN Express has written about Phu Quoc. "Once a top tourist attraction, Phu Quoc has been suffering from a crisis in recent months as tourists voted with their feet due to soaring airfares, exorbitantly priced hotels and other scams." Worst place ever.

[@debh3404]

@@user-jshsd2 That's interesting. So you are saying to not put much faith into travel KZbinr's reviews? That does make sense. If one is a travel YT influencer, they are going to want to say great things about almost anywhere so they can show that they give great reviews so other establishments will want a review from them too. Free lodging and food, free of charge for a free positive review.

yeah, visited phuket this past winter and wasn't highly impressed. nice to have another option, especially during burning season. can't remember if you've been to nha trang. seems like another nice seaside town. added bonus: Dalat is only a few hour bus ride away, to really get a break from the heat

[@GreenyTravels]

I keep hearing that. Will need to visit

[@roygoad2870]

There’s so much more to discover in South East Asia, Indonesia has over 17,000 islands for example, I’ve been to just six of them. There’s Raja Ampat, in the heart of the coral triangle. Who’s heard of the Riau Islands, there’s over 1,000 of them, some say it’s the new Maldives of S.E.Asia, it’s south east of Phu Quoc. Thanks Greeny for highlighting, will visit one day!

[@GreenyTravels]

I need to get out more. I want to see more of this

[@kevbrown1867]

I stayed a few years back at the best western premier on the west side of the island and remember it was insanely cheap to live a 5 star life style. The beach though was not clean I believe if you stay on the east side where JW Marriott is the beach would be cleaner . I remember the sunset city condos were under construction didn’t think they would ever finish cause it was dead the pandemic really wiped the island out . Good to see they finished most the project looks amazing hopefully they fill it all up . That island does big domestic tourist business but I see direct flights now from Korea , Taiwan , Hong Kong and Bangkok so hopefully things get booming It would be sad to see it turn into a ghost town the Sun group have spent billions and Vingroup the same goes for Vingroup on the north side of the island.

[@peters7229]

[@QQ-my2rq]

I like it so much, I really wanna go there. But the night life.. I have 9 yo child, he loves dancing so much.. we had a lot of fun in Phuket and Tenerife, we like to go dancing in the evenings.. But I don’t want to go there again, I want to explore new places with good beaches and I also love Vietnam, I lived in Da Lat for two years, but now I live in Poland. So I wanna go there for two weeks, beaches look amazing, just like that olden days in Sihanoukville, where I also lived and my son was born there, but I’m afraid we get bored on this beautiful island without that evening fun in dancing bars.. Goch. Where to go then. From the other side I don’t want to see crowds of Russians like in Nha Trang..

[@GreenyTravels]

It’s nice. But not much nightlife. Great place to go relax and enjoy the beaches

[@searcherfor9]

I would really like to visit this place as i had never heard of it before, when i sell my house in Hua Hin i am going to do more travelling in asia and this will be on my list. Also i enjoyed your crime video you did recently, it would be nice to see a few more in the future.

[@GreenyTravels]

A lot to enjoy in this area!!

[@SantiSabaiLife]

Thanks for all the deeper information about this location. I don't know if the word "interesting" or "weird" describes this place best. I feel like it is too much, too fast so the likelihood of it being dilapidated before it ever gets filled is probably high. My mind takes me to a future imagination where this place is like an abandoned amusement park. We'll see...

Aloha, Greeny. Another informative video. This place looks amazing 🤩. It’s now on my list to stay long term. I like your comparison to Phuket for scale. Being that Phu Quoc is a new area real estate prices and rentals will be cheap. Dang Btw. There’s cane juice all over Thailand. I guess you haven’t seen those stands with the stacks of crushed canes outside. Cane juice is very tasty but be careful it’s still high sugar too so if you’re diabetic it’ll raise your levels quite a bit.

[@GreenyTravels]

I guess it’s good I don’t see it.

[@roberth7894]

Looks like it's got potential to be a big tourist draw, nice beaches. The rainy season though must not be busy w/ an avg of 21 rainy days, and not just sprinkles but big rains. It'd be nice to visit here while staying in Thailand or visiting Cambodia since they're all so close.

I love Thailand, but Danang is amazing. Don’t tell anyone else about Danang. We are headed back for a month next year. We will also spend 2 months in Thailand and a month in Malaysia

[@geoleo2597]

What are some things that make it better than Thailand? Air quality? Infrastructure? Transportation? People?

[@jameshall2299]

The people are in fact friendlier than in Thailand. I didn’t think that was possible. The transportation systems in Thailand are better in my opinion, but Uber or bolt and grab work well. The food is great, but street food isn’t as plentiful as Thailand. I think it’s a bit cheaper for comparable housing in Vietnam. This is my personal experience in Danang. If you go to Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City, it might be different.

Have lived in a house we built in Phetchaburi 20 years ago ( a small city in S Thailand founded around 500 AD). I go back and forth from Houston as I still work full time there. No pollution in Phetchaburi (150 km S of BKK). Don't understand the heat (grew up in Miami where we had no air conditioning-it is cooler than either Miami or Houston). Love to go to BKK-the pollution doesn't register and it is fun and outstanding medical care. Having spent a great deal of time in China I don't understand these descriptions of pollution in BKK-it is a different horrible reality in China. Bottom line, if you live like a westerner in Thailand, it is expensive. Otherwise, amazingly cheap.

[@GreenyTravels]

The only visa they have for long term is 3 months e visa so have to do a border run and must leave the country before you reapply for the online e visa again.As far as I know you can keep reapplying for the 3 months visas. Other way to stay long term would be a temporary residence card for 2 years for people that are working or create a business there . The last way is to marry a local and again get 2 year temporary resident card or a 5 year visa exemption where you need to leave every 6 months . It would be good if they did create a retirement visa as I can see a lot of elderly liking to park themselves there for a long time . The international hospital by Vingroup is new and has everything but make sure you have money or insurance to go there . The local government hospitals there are dirt cheap but would be a scary experience but better then nothing

Phu Quoc, and I've been there, is simply the worst example of tourism development in South East Asia. The locals have been dislocated, the hotels are empty and the architecture are absurd cliches of European architecture. The beaches are very dirty.

The beaches are clean and the food is way better. Phu Quoc is awful.

Don't know how you love Phu Quoc. It's the worst place I've ever been to in my life and I live in Vietnam. There's nothing to that place. Not sure why you're hyping it. I guess you just pump out videos for ads. Go to the night market and show everyone what a joke it is. Make sure to show the torn up street nearby. Low prices? lol. Wrong. Hotels cost me average of $200/night for nothing special. I really don't like Phuket, but it blows away Phu Quoc in every aspect times 20.
