The Poplar Resort

We had a vacation with 4 families at the hotel with Van and his family. Our company was 6 adults and 3 children. The service and attention were top notch. And the price was low ~ 1500 Russian rubles per room per day. It's cheap! Van helped us with all the questions we had. Thank you very much! Van speaks Russian, so we had no problems. Van also helped us buy tickets for various excursions, performances, etc. At good prices, lower than at the official ones. Van helped us find a local driver on a 16-seater bus for a very small price for the whole day. And this driver drove us around the island for two days. So we were able to see all the sights of Fukuoka. I recommend visiting the Bee Farm apiary in the north of the island - not very touristy, but a very soulful and beautiful place with delicious honey and dishes based on it. I also recommend Starfish Beach - we were lucky, the sea was calm, very warm. And there were lots and lots of stars! We were delighted with both the stars and the beach itself! ❤️ However, I do not recommend the snorkeling excursion in the south on the islands near Phu Quoc. The excursion was from the Dangkhoatrip Phuquoc company. Yes, the excursion is inexpensive, but it is as "herd" as possible. You are combined with other tourists, picked up by bus from all the hotels. Then you need to wait at the pier, then you need to wait on the first island. Everything is strictly on time, there are a lot of people! It is inconvenient. If you like an individual approach, then do not take this excursion. If you need cheaper, then this is exactly what you need! There was an unpleasant moment on this excursion - the guards on the first island began to take water from our hands while we were drinking it. We fought for it, but the sediment remained. You cannot bring food and water onto the island, you need to buy it there. I liked the food on this excursion. It was included in the ticket price. There was a great selection of fresh seafood 🥰 The hotel itself is located on the outskirts of a fishing village. It is a bit far from the tourist center, but you can take a taxi for about 40-60k dong, and even cheaper by bike. We found a place called Chom Chom nearby and had lunch there. But what delighted us most was the dinner from Van's assistant. She went out herself to get fresh fish and seafood, vegetables, and rice. And she cooked us a royal dinner. She has talent, we have never eaten so deliciously in a cafe. And it cost us 1 million 400k dong for 9 people. We were delighted. The bill for 9 people in a cafe was usually higher. There is a kitchen, we cooked our breakfasts ourselves. It is not recommended to swim on the beach next to the hotel, but you can walk a little north to a good beach. Van, thank you for the warm welcome!

A cozy private hotel in a fishing village. Green area. The rooms are small but clean with a toilet and shower. All accessories are present from a toothbrush to a hair dryer and towels. A shared kitchen where you can cook, a market nearby where you can buy fruits, vegetables, bread, fish, meat. There is a barbecue where you can cook all this. Washing machine, powder. The sea is within walking distance, calm. A beautiful view of the sea. Nearby cafes with adequate prices. There are swings. You can order dinner, very tasty. The hosts speak Russian. They will tell you everything and advise with excursions or routes. I definitely recommend it.

I booked a hotel by accident, and it exceeded my expectations. You can go to the market to buy seafood. The owner provides a kitchen, so you can cook it yourself or ask the aunt to do it for you. Each dish costs 20K. The owner speaks Chinese, so communication is barrier-free. If you are tired of staying in a resort, you can stay here for two nights and experience the life of a homestay.

We originally booked 2 nights here, and because of the great location and hotel environment and scenery, we renewed for another two nights. This trip is really worth it, with many different experiences. The owner also provides a kitchen for travelers to use, and you can buy fresh seafood from the nearby market for cooking. If you have any needs, ask the owner, and the owner will support us. I will return to this hotel next time I travel, it's really great👍
