Asia » Vietnam » Mekong River Delta » Kien Giang » Phu Quoc Island November 26th 2007

It certainly is!! Got here on the beautiful island of Phu Quoc on Friday ... and it is gorgeous. Staying at an amazing place called Mai House right on the beach. Got a little bungalow with a seaview ... treating the wife y'know to a bit of luxury ... well it is 30 quid a night! The island itself is still at the unspoilt level - not that many hotels, the beach we are on is called Long Beach... and it's pretty long as the name suggests!
