As tourist numbers in Vietnam have increased, both Vietnamese nationals and overseas visitors, the infrastructure to cater for the demand has improved. On Phu Quoc Island, that has been reflected in the amount of quality accommodation available. With an extensive coastline, and lovely sandy beaches, the obvious place for building is near beaches, with great views over the sea. These resorts are a great place to relax, and after a busy day, there is no better way to start the evening than with a spa and massage. If you are on a Vietnam family vacation, it is one of the best things to do in Vietnam.

Massage is an Asian tradition and this is equally applicable to Vietnam as it is to other countries in the region.

Most of the leisure facilities on offer have full body massages, scrubs, aromatherapy, facials and foot treatments. When you look for a hotel on Phu Quoc as you decide on your Vietnam tour package, here are some of the places where you can enjoy spa and massage:
