Where do I start, we loved every minute of our stay at Cassia Cottage. The staff were so friendly & welcoming, I can't remember all their names but they made us feel so special & went above & beyond. I remember Thi who was so attentive at breakfast & helped with my gluten free requirements, she was so professional. The owner & his son welcomed us when we arrived & were on site every day, they too were so accommodating & friendly. Our accommodation was beautiful, overlooking the pool with a sea view, I would sit on the patio with a coffee in the morning watching the fishing boats & listening to the waves whilst soaking up the beautiful surroundings, pure bliss. Watching the sunset from the beach bar was breath taking, most evenings a singer performed on the lawn by the beach bar, which made it even more special. The breakfast was extensive with so much choice of fresh produce on offer. We ate at the restaurant a few evenings, each time the food was to an exceptional standard & so much variety to choose from. The location was perfect, straight onto the beach & only a short amble up to the restaurants & shops on the island. We had the most perfect stay, thank you to everyone at Cassia Cottage for making our holiday so special.

This place is amazing! Perfect central location in Duong Dong and beachfront hotel, near restarurants, shops/supermarkets and a bus stop. Breakfast is very various with a wide food/drink options. Perfect customer service, a place itself looks like a garden! Great facilites with pools, beach restaurant and another one which is perfect for a dinner. Room was very spacious, clean and with great interior. For sure if we travel to Phu Quoc, we will choose Cassia Cottage! Thank you so much!

There is no such a thing! All is perfect! :)

We had room 1D, a Standard Double Room with Sea View. It’s not right on the beachfront but overlooks the immaculately kept gardens and the beach, which you can glimpse through the palm trees. But be warned: Rooms 1A to 1D have a shared terrace and are right next to the children’s pool, so if you’re looking for total seclusion you may not get it. However, our neighbours were lovely (Swedish couple who have booked the same room every year for 11 years!!) and we were not troubled by noisy nippers during our stay. The private beach has soft sand and is kept spotless, with comfy sun loungers and big umbrellas. Palm-shaded garden area behind has beautiful plants, tinkling streams and rock gardens, hammocks, and big round beds with cushions, plus a small beach bar (which opens only from 4pm to 6pm - should be longer IMHO). On the beach next to the bar, a trio of local ladies not connected to Cassia Cottage offered by far the best and cheapest massages we found during our three weeks in Vietnam - the wife went 3 times in 2 days and paid only 200,000 dong for an hour of full body/head massage with liberal application of oils and aloe vera. They were amazing. The hotel’s Spice House restaurant is in a lovely colonial-style building with large terraced area outside overlooking the main pool. Breakfast and dinner were invariably excellent, with massive choice of Asian and western foods. Staff were lovely and even organised us a taxi to nearest opticians at 9pm for an emergency spectacles repair! We loved Cassia Cottage. It’s not cheap by Vietnam standards but you get what you pay for. We’re already planning a return visit - and will definitely be taking at least 6 days next time (see below)

The only disappointment was that we initially booked 6 nights but then had to reduce it to 2 nights - and the room rate was doubled!!

That is a very calm and wonderful place, which has own beach. Not only the beach, but also the pools area is very nice and peaceful. When you are walking on the park of the Cottage, you feels like in a small jungle. The staff was extremely kind and helpful. We are sure that our room was larger than it was advertised (more than 23 m2). The breakfast was also very good (Vietnamise, Continental and English breakfast, as well). Just about 200 meters there is a main street with lots of restaurants. On the way to the main street there was a very good Restaurant (Sunlight) where fresh grilled seafood was always available. Although we booked this accomodation for 3 nights, we extended our stay there for 2 more nights.

Amazing property - a former spice traders plantation. The owner has managed to create a wonderful setting, full of character, in a relaxed setting with a very chilled vibe. It’s a boutique eco-friendly sustainable property, which never feels busy and a place where you can fully unwind. The staff are amazing and the restaurant is one of the best on the island.

Absolutely nothing …

Cassia Cottage is hands down the best accommodation we've ever stayed in. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect. The house we booked was simply lovely – beautifully designed, cozy, and so close to the beach that we could hear the gentle sound of waves at night, creating the most relaxing ambiance. Breakfast was a highlight of our stay: delicious, rich, and offering everything you could possibly imagine. Whether you’re craving fresh fruit, pastries, or a hearty meal, it’s all there, prepared to perfection. What truly sets Cassia Cottage apart is the incredible staff. They went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable, always attentive, and genuinely cared for. Their warm hospitality made us feel right at home. If you're looking for a serene escape with exceptional service and a touch of paradise, Cassia Cottage is the place to be. We can’t wait to return!

An extra wardrobe in one of the rooms would be helpful; the heat makes it difficult to keep your clothes in the bathroom.

The pool is great, and the hotel is right down by the beach which is a lovely location for sunset. The outdoor shower is a really nice touch, and the rooms are kept clean by the staff. It is a very tranquil hotel. The owner chatted to us during our breakfast which gave a lovely touch and he was very nice.

There was work being done around where our original room was booked. I received an email to say that our room would be moved away from that, and a free massage would be offered, which was great. However when we were arrived, it had changed and we were brought to our original room with the option to then see the other room. It was a late flight and we were happy to just sit down, but as we looked out of our room we realised there were barriers blocking all of the seaview and decided we wanted to go to the other room. I felt that the staff should have just sent us to the other room in the first place. Breakfast is an order from the table, with very limited choices to what you can get, as they charge for extras. The rooms need a bit of an upgrade they are quite dated.

Breakfast was superb. They offer a lot of variety each day. Pools are great. With Poolside service for drinks. They provided us with a "Take away " breakfast for our really early check out at 5:30Am.

They can have bar service on the beach and have waiters offering drinks to bring to the loungers on the beach. Their Cocktails in the Restuarant can be improved some what. They have Happy hour everyday from 5:30Pm - 6:30Pm but we didnt really enjoy the cocktails at all. The Malabar beach Bar was unfortunately closed during our stay in Oct , which was a pity as it looked like a great place right on the water. But we were told our visit was just before peak season. It opened the day we left.

Fantastic location with direct access to the beach and restaurants. The breakfast on offer was also excellent.

The swimming pools are just too warm to feel refreshed - it’s like bath water and not pleasant to swim in. There were also a lot of mosquitoes around the property which was not helpful with a villa that had an outdoor shower as the only option and getting mosquito bites while showering- the property needs to take additional measures to manage this as you had to be constantly spraying yourself with insect repellent.

Everything is exceptional!! Starting from the people, check-in, housekeep, bar, restaurant, maintenance, everyone's so friendly. Location fantastic, very quite and on the beach. Also close to the main city. Breakfast simply amazing with great variety and fresh fruit, baked goods, amazing bread home-made and traditional vietnamease food too

Sunbeds on the beach side need an upgrade/replacement
