Escape to Paradise: Myrtle Boutique Hotel, Phu Quoc Island

Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the swirling turquoise waters and sun-drenched shores of… Escape to Paradise: Myrtle Boutique Hotel, Phu Quoc Island! Forget those sterile, corporate reviews. I'm here to give you the real lowdown, the messy, beautiful truth about this place. My review is SEO-friendly because, hey, even paradise needs to get found, right? But it's also going to be a chaotic, rambling, opinionated love letter (with some side-eye thrown in for good measure).

First, the Big Picture: Forget Your Worries, Literally

This place is called "Escape to Paradise" for a reason. Phu Quoc Island is stunning, okay? Like, jaw-droppingly, "I need a picture for Instagram" stunning. And the Myrtle Boutique Hotel? Well, it feels like a secret, a hidden gem tucked away from the usual tourist hustle. It's got that vibe – that feeling of… "Ah, this is why I booked a flight."

Accessibility: Navigating Paradise (Almost) Effortlessly

Alright, let's get practical. Accessibility is always a big deal, and I'm happy to say the Myrtle tries. They have facilities for disabled guests, and the elevator is a lifesaver. Think about those suitcases, you know? Crucial. The exterior corridor is great for easy access, and they seem to be making an effort in the right direction. Look, it's not perfect – I didn’t see explicit wheelchair-accessible everything, but they’re definitely trying to be inclusive. Check for details if accessibility is a primary concern.

On-Site Paradise? Let’s Eat!

Oh, the food! Okay, so the restaurants are varied. You have Asian cuisine in restaurant, Western cuisine in restaurant. There's a bar (happy hour, anyone?!), a coffee shop, and a poolside bar, oh my, where the cocktails are…ahem, important. There are restaurants and poolside bar. And the breakfast [buffet]? Yes, please! I'm a breakfast fiend, and the buffet was solid, a delightful, messy spread. I may have accidentally eaten three croissants. The Asian breakfast was delish, and they had a good selection of salad in restaurant and soup in restaurant. They even offer alternative meal arrangements if you like to be picky.. Or are a vegetarian restaurant lover. I, myself, can't survive without coffee/tea in restaurant. Room service [24-hour] is a huge win, especially after a long day of… well, doing absolutely nothing but lounging by the pool. They also have snack bar which is nice in its own right.

Here's the Rambling Anecdote You Came For:

The first night, after a loooong travel day, I was starving. Like, "hangry" level starving. I hit the room service, ordered the pad thai, and devoured it in record time while collapsing into the plush, cool sheets. Pure bliss. The bottle of water was a godsend, too. They provide essential condiments. That pad thai? Perfection. And the next morning? Back at the buffet for more goodness.

Cleanliness and Safety: Because Germs are So Not Invited to Paradise

Okay, let's talk about the elephant in the room – the pandemic. Myrtle Boutique Hotel really impressed me on this front. They've got Anti-viral cleaning products, they have a Daily disinfection in common areas, Individually-wrapped food options. I saw staff sanitizing constantly. They’ve got Hand sanitizer readily available, and staff are trained in safety protocol. They even have doctor/nurse on call and a first aid kit, which is reassuring. They offer guests the opportunity to opt-out of Room sanitization opt-out available. While they have a Safe dining setup, Sanitized kitchen and tableware items, and Staff trained in safety protocol, they don't provide hot water linen and laundry washing but do have a laundry service.

Things to Do (And, Let's Be Honest, Mostly Not Do)

The Myrtle offers a solid range of things to do, like Fitness center, Gym/fitness. They have a beautiful Swimming pool [outdoor] and offer Body scrub, Body wrap, Foot bath, Massage, Spa, Spa/sauna – basically, everything you need to completely melt into relaxation. They lack a steamroom, but honestly, who needs one when you're already in Phu Quoc?

Important note: I, uh, spent most of my time by the pool. Okay, all of my time by the pool. The Pool with view is stunning, by the way. Just saying. It was hard to move, to be honest. They, as well as Sauna.

The Rooms: Your Cozy Hideaway

The rooms are lovely, though I will admit, I'm not sure if all the rooms feature a proposal spot (thank goodness). You can find a non-smoking room, but they do not have pets allowed. They also offer couple's room. They have a seating area, desk, hair dryer, a mini bar, are soundproof, and have air conditioning. Other goodies include bathtub, bathrobes, blackout curtains, coffee/tea maker, free bottled water, in-room safe box, internet access-wireless, a laptop workspace, refrigerator, shower, smoke detector, slippers, toiletries, towels, umbrella, and Wi-Fi [free]. They have a complimentary tea, a mirror, reading light, socket near the bed, telephone, wake-up service, window that opens.

Services and Conveniences: Making Life Easier Than Easy

The Myrtle shines here, offering a plethora of services to make your stay seamless. You've got air conditioning in public area, airport transfer, audio-visual equipment for special events, babysitting service (for the little ones), bicycle parking, a business center, cash withdrawal, concierge, contactless check-in/out, convenience store, currency exchange, daily housekeeping, doorman, dry cleaning, elevator, essential condiments, facilities for disabled guests, food delivery, gift/souvenir shop, ironing service, laundry service, luggage storage, meeting/banquet facilities, outdoor venue for special events, safety deposit boxes, and taxi service. They also have Wi-Fi for special events, Xerox/fax in business center, or Car park [on-site], they have car park [free of charge]. There is no car power charging station or valet parking, but I probably wouldn’t feel the need for them.

For the Kids: Keeping the Little Rascals Happy

The Myrtle is family/child friendly with Babysitting service, but there is a lack of Kids meal or Kids facilities. They provide Family/child friendly, which is a win.

Getting Around: Easy Breezy

The hotel provides airport transfer, which meant I could collapse the moment I landed. They also had a helpful taxi service.

Internet Access… and My Love-Hate Relationship With Wi-Fi

Okay, let's be honest. The Internet access – wireless was… well, it was there. Enough said. The Wi-Fi [free] was fine for checking emails and posting envy-inducing pool photos, but don't expect to stream HD movies. However, hey, you're in paradise. Embrace the digital detox, people! You can go for Internet [LAN].

Myrtle Boutique Hotel Phu Quoc Phu Quoc Island Vietnam

Alright, buckle up buttercups, because you're about to dive headfirst into my Phu Quoc adventure at the Myrtle Boutique Hotel. Forget those picture-perfect itineraries, this is gonna be… well, me. Prepare for the emotional rollercoaster, the questionable food choices, and the inevitable sunburn. Let's do this!

Myrtle Boutique Hotel Phu Quoc: The Messy, Honest, Human Itinerary

Day 1: Arrival & Existential Dread (aka, Getting My Bearings)

14:00: Touchdown in Phu Quoc! Oh god, the humidity. It slaps you in the face the second you exit the plane. It’s like walking into a lukewarm, slightly smelly hug. Immigration was a breeze thankfully - I heard horror stories. Thank god I pre-booked a transfer. The guy who met me was a little too eager. Like, borderline manic. "Welcome to Phu Quoc! So beautiful! Your bags? I take! Hotel good! Very good!" I just wanted a glass of water, dude.
15:00: Myrtle Boutique Hotel check-in. The lobby is… pretty. Very Instagram-able. Too Instagram-able, almost. A bit of that hotel-chic aesthetic that screams "designed by committee." But hey, at least the air conditioning works. Whew. Checked into my room. Okay, it's… small. Really small. Like, "can I swing a cat?" small. And I have a king-sized bed! I swear, I think my luggage takes up half the floor space. Okay, deep breaths. I'm on VACATION.
16:00: Pool Check. The pool actually lives up to the hype! I’m always wary of hotel pools because sometimes, they look sparkling in the picture but when you get there, they look like they haven't been cleaned since the beginning of time. But this one is actually… nice. I spent a good hour just floating there, staring at the sky, and wondering if I’d made a massive life mistake. (Spoiler alert: probably not, yet.) Finished the pool time with a cocktail - a fairly potent passion fruit daiquiri. Started getting a little too friendly with a couple from Germany who were overly enthusiastic about pineapple.
18:00: Dinner: Ate at the hotel restaurant. Mistake. I ordered the grilled fish and it was dry, sad, and honestly, tasted faintly of sadness. The accompanying vegetables were probably cooked a week ago. I seriously considered asking for a second daiquiri just to numb the pain. I didn’t. (Well, maybe I did…) The restaurant had a live band. They were… enthusiastic. A little too enthusiastic. Like, my eardrums might be bleeding.
20:00: Attempted to watch a movie, but the Wi-Fi died. So, back to existential dread. Ended up falling asleep at 9 pm! Jet lag is a cruel mistress.

Day 2: Motorbike Mayhem and the Glorious Mango Smoothie Incident

07:00: Wake up. SUNSHINE! But also, a slight hangover. The price of slightly too many passion fruit daiquiris. Needed to eat something. The breakfast buffet was… ok. The bread was stale though. I mean, like, stone stale. But hey, the fruit was fresh.
09:00: Motorbike Adventure! Rented a motorbike. I’ve never ridden a motorbike before. Huge mistake. The guy at the rental place just gave me a helmet and a shrug, and I was off. Phu Quoc traffic is… chaotic. Like, a beautiful, slightly terrifying ballet of scooters, cars, and random animals. I may have almost taken out a family of chickens. My heart rate did not return to normal for hours.
10:00 [The Mango Smoothie Incident]: Found myself at a beach. Long beach. It was… okay. Nice sand. The water was gorgeous. But then, then I saw it. A little beachside shack proclaiming "BEST MANGO SMOOTHIE IN THE WORLD!" My internal monologue: "Oh, they probably all say that." But the sun. The heat. And that promise of sugary, fruity perfection. So, I ordered one. Oh. My. God. This smoothie. This smoothie was… transformative. It was like liquid sunshine. It erased all my doubts, all my anxieties, all the slight disappointment of the grilled fish. I could have stayed there all day, just sipping that ambrosia and watching the waves. I almost forgot about the traffic. Almost. The Mango Smoothie Incident was the highlight of my trip.
11:00: Still at the beach. Still savoring the mango smoothie. Just… existing. Finally, a feeling of true relaxation.
13:00: Lunch at a random beachfront restaurant. Chili crab! I'd heard about the chili crab. Managed to splatter chili sauce everywhere. My clothes, my face, the table, the poor waiter… But it was worth it. Delicious.
15:00: Motorbike, round two. Survived. Narrowly. Decided to head back to the hotel.
16:00: Pool again. Because, yes.
Something pm: Dinner at a place I found on TripAdvisor. Slightly better than the hotel. Ordered something vaguely Vietnamese. No regrets but nothing to write home about.

Day 3: Fishing Trip Fiasco and Farewell Sunsets (Possibly with Tears)

06:00: Wake up. (Ugh, still can’t believe the time. But I feel… better. The mango smoothie effect continues.) Going on a fishing trip! I’m not a fisherman, mind you. But the brochure promised calm seas, amazing scenery, and fresh seafood. Lies. All lies.
07:00: The fishing trip! The boat was… small. And it reeked of diesel. The sea was… not calm. I got seasick almost immediately. Spent the next few hours clinging to the side of the boat, wondering if I’d made a terrible, terrible decision.
08:00 - 11:00: More seasick. The scenery was probably lovely, but I couldn’t see it. The “fresh seafood” was… well, I didn’t eat anything. Eventually gave up on the fishing part and just stared blankly at the horizon.
12:00: Back on dry land. Weak in the knees. Needed a nap.
13:00: Nap completed! (Thank god)
14:00: Last Pool Session. Soaking up every last drop of sunshine. Resisting the urge to order a third mango smoothie of the whole trip.
16:00: Sunset at the beach. This was the payoff. Seriously. The sunsets in Phu Quoc are… ridiculous. Like, straight out of a movie. Pink, orange, purple… breathtaking. I actually teared up a little bit. Okay, a lot. The beauty of it all… it’s just… much.
18:00: Farewell Dinner. Found a little spot on the beach. Ordered the seafood. It was delicious. The wine was cold.
20:00: Packing (a bit of a mess) and reflecting on the trip. It wasn’t perfect. There were moments of frustration, moments of existential dread, moments of “what have I gotten myself into?” But mostly? It was beautiful. And the mango smoothie… oh, the mango smoothie… Even if I'll probably never ride a motorbike again.
22:00: Goodbyes to the staff. Slightly embarrassing but I managed to get through them.

Day 4: Departure & Post-Vacation Blues

08:00: Check out. Bags are packed. I'm ready to go.
10:00: Bye Phu Quoc. Back to reality. Sigh. Maybe I need another mango smoothie…

So, there you have it. My Phu Quoc experience. Messy, imperfect, utterly human. And, if I’m honest with myself, I wouldn’t have had it any other way.

Escape to Paradise: Myrtle Boutique Hotel, Phu Quoc - The Unfiltered FAQs (Because Let's Be Real!)

Okay, Spill. Is "Paradise" Really the Right Word for Myrtle Boutique Hotel?

Alright, alright, let's get real. "Paradise"? That's a big word. Myrtle Boutique Hotel... well, it's definitely a *vibe*. You know? That laid-back, breezy Phu Quoc thing. The kind of place where you can actually *unwind* if you let yourself. Coming from a fast-paced world, it took me a hot minute to adjust. First couple of days, I was practically twitching at how *slow* everything was. But then... the pool... the cocktails... It started to sink in.

So, paradise? Not perfectly. But definitely a really, really good slice of heaven. Especially if you’re cool with a bit of "island time" – which, trust me, you *will* be after the first mango smoothie.

What’s the Pool Really Like? Is it Instagram-Worthy?

Okay, the pool. This is where things get interesting. Yes, it *is* lovely. Turquoise water, leafy surroundings… You take a peek, and you’re like, “Ooooh, *nice*.” The Instagrammers, however, might be disappointed. It's not sprawling infinity-pool-overlooking-the-ocean stuff. This is a more… intimate, laid-back kind of pool. Which, for me, was *perfect*. Didn't have to fight for space or worry about posing for the perfect shot. Just floated around with a book and a cocktail. Bliss. Seriously, pure bliss. I spent half my trip there. And yes, I took some pictures. But they were of *me* enjoying myself, not, you know, the *pool* itself.

Warning: You might catch a few rogue leaves in the water. It's an island, nature happens. Embrace it! And the occasional chatty gecko.

The Rooms! Spill the Tea on the Rooms! Are They as Chic as the Photos?

Right, the rooms. The photos *are* good. But... reality? Okay, so mine was a *bit* smaller than I anticipated. Less "hotel suite," more "stylish, well-appointed box." Don't get me wrong, it was clean, the air-con worked a treat (essential!), and the bed? Oh, the bed. Cloud-like. Seriously, I could have happily lived in that bed. I almost DID, actually, one day. Ordered room service (which, by the way, was fantastic) and binge-watched something utterly mindless. That's what a good room allows you to do, right?

The bathroom? Decent. The shower pressure could have been better. But look, I'm not going to Phu Quoc for a water-pressure competition. It’s the whole *vibe* that matters, and the room really contributed to it. Just don't expect a palatial spread and you'll be golden. It has charm and it keeps you comfy.

Food, Glorious Food! What About the Breakfast?

Breakfast... Okay, this is where Myrtle *really* shines, in my opinion. Forget the sad continental spread of stale croissants and lukewarm coffee. We're talking fresh fruit, amazing Vietnamese dishes made fresh, and a coffee that actually wakes you up. Pho? Incredible. The fresh juices? Delicious. The pancake game? Strong. I'm not even a big breakfast person, but I *looked forward* to it every single morning. I swear, I gained five pounds just from that breakfast. Worth it. Absolutely worth it. And the staff is all smiles and truly helpful, helping you get the food you crave.

What's the Staff Like? Are They Friendly?

The staff? I'm going to gush a bit here. They're fantastic. Truly. The kind of people who remember your name, ask about your day, and genuinely seem to care. They're helpful without being intrusive. They go the extra mile. Seriously, one of the staff members, I think his name was David (or maybe Daniel? I'm terrible with names!) helped me organize a last-minute motorbike rental. That's a lifesaver, because, let's be honest, navigating Phu Quoc without a bike is a nightmare. They’re eager to share tips and are amazing at making your stay more pleasant and less stressful.

Location, Location, Location! Is it Convenient?

Okay, the location. This is a bit of a mixed bag. Myrtle is close enough to the main town, Duong Dong, that you can walk or take a short taxi ride. Easy access to markets, restaurants, the beach, and all that jazz. But, you know, it's not *right* on the beach. You've got a short walk or motorbike ride involved. Not a deal-breaker by any means, but factor that into your planning. It’s also nice and quiet, away from the tourist crowds. I loved being able to escape the buzz and noise after a day exploring. I'd rather be a few minutes out of the way and enjoy the peace and quiet.

Should I Rent a Motorbike?

Oh, absolutely! Rent a motorbike. *Do it*. Seriously, it's the best way to explore Phu Quoc. You can zip around, discover hidden beaches, and get a real feel for the island. Just… be careful. Traffic can be, um, "interesting." And the roads? Well, let's just say they're not all paved perfectly. But the freedom is worth it. I crashed into a pothole once. Luckily, I was going slow. Scraped my knee. Worth it for the adventure. Just… wear a helmet! (And maybe some knee pads, if you're feeling particularly cautious, like me, the next time.)

What’s the Vibe? Is it Good for Couples, or… Solo Travelers?

The vibe? Relaxed. Chill. Unpretentious. I think it's great for both couples and solo travelers, actually. As a solo traveler, I felt really comfortable. You can find a quiet corner to read a book, strike up a conversation with other guests by the pool, or just do your own thing. I met some other lovely people there. The hotel isn't the kind of place where everyone is all coupled up and ignoring you. It's friendly, welcoming. Perfect for the kind of solo traveler who values their own space but also enjoys a bit of company. The same goes for couples! It's intimate and romantic. Perfect for cozy dinners and getting away from it all.

Any Dealbreakers? What's Not So Shiny?

Alright, gotta be honest. No place is perfect. The occasional power cut happened. Like, one random afternoon, the power went off. For a few hours. Annoying, sure. But hey, it's an island. Embrace the slower pace, and honestly, it gives you an excuse to do whatever you want. I spent the time figuring out how to use the hotel’s Bluetooth speaker and ended up listening to a podcast. It was great. And did I mentionWeb Hotel Search Site
