The property was not as advertised. This could have been due to it being off peak season. Our room phone was broken so we couldn’t order room service as was our tv. The garden maintenance around our villa was poor. There is no sand at the beach. There is only one restaurant. Food was ok. The breakfast variety was ok also. Please note that this villa is far from anywhere. Took us 30 mins to get to grand world and casino and restaurants were also far. There was zero entertainment. They played music at the pool twice during our stay. Overall I wouldn’t stay here again.

The best thing about this resort was it's staff. The resort itself was advertised as a 4 to 5 Star resort. given my extensive travel I would rate this resort in its current condition with consideration of the staff only a one star. place is run down outdated room decor in dire need on a complete refurbishing. You can not make something old, dirty damaged unkept any different except when taking photos from a distance that will not show up the problems as they have done in their presentation. The management spoke to us before we left and asked us for some feedback and we gave them the exact same response as above. We respectfully told them that unless things change dramatically we could not see ourselves returning even though the location is great.

Not a good experience.
Everything is downgraded and dirty. The room floor was not clean, fridge and fans were missing, the bathtub cannot be used because it cannot be drained. The sink in the restroom drain is stuck as well. Outside balcony is full of ants and the staff here does not greet you. They have their own “taxi services” which is kind of suspicious. The buffet area was hot because their AC wasn’t working properly. Im glad on stay there for 2 nights.

Great resort design with layout, beautiful surrounding and private beach. Staff are helpful. Room is very roomy. Breakfast is very good. Love the BBQ dinner outdoor. Things need to be taken into attention is facility update and services. It is sad to see this beautiful resort goes under maintenance and services. Many doors hinges a loose and items are falling off like toilet paper holders...

The Shells has really lovely staff and a 24/7 buggy service to get around the resort (from pools to room or restaurants/reception). However, the resort rooms lack cleanliness as the once beautiful white tiles have a yellow tinge to it. I sympathise with the choice of white as Phu Quoc can get very hot and white is less likely to retain the heat. I trust that they are clean, however, upon first glance, feel a little put off. The rooms are spacious and the pool is nice to use. 2/3 of the pools were under maintenance and I believe that they will reopen at the end of 2024. The shells is a decent stay, however I don’t believe it is still the 5 star resort it once was.

I recently had a highly disappointing experience at "The Shells Resort and Spa" in Phu Quoc, Vietnam. Despite being advertised as a luxurious 5-star hotel, the reality was a stark contrast. The cleanliness was severely lacking, with evident signs of neglect – from mold in the shower and bath to pervasive cracks in the walls. The rusty steel fixtures left unsightly rust marks on various surfaces. The promotional pictures are misleading, showcasing a beauty that the actual hotel doesn't live up to. Having paid over $1000 (AU) for a 4-night stay, we expected a certain standard, but this turned out to be one of the worst hotels we've encountered in Vietnam. Dishearteningly, we decided to check out within an hour of checking in. To add to the disappointment, our 4-night stay was prepaid, and the hotel is currently refusing to refund our money our meet us somewhere half-way. This experience has left a bitter taste, and I strongly advise against choosing "The Shells Resort and Spa" if you seek a truly enjoyable and clean stay in Phu Quoc.

The view from this property is stunning. The pool is huge and faces the beach. We rented a bike at the property itself for a decent amount. They also provide cabs at the same fare as Grab taxis. However this is a resort and hence is only for those who like a little peace and quiet. Food could be priced a little lower.
