Mövenpick Opens New International Resort on Phu Quoc Island

Mövenpick Resort Waverly Phu Quoc & Mövenpick Residences Phu Quoc open on Vietnam’s premier island destination 

Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts has unveiled an exciting new address showcasing the brand’s signature Swiss hospitality excellence right here in Vietnam. 

Mövenpick Resort Waverly Phu Quoc is the first international premium resort to open along Phu Quoc’s idyllic Ong Lang Beach, and is poised to become the destination of choice for family adventures, company trips, dream weddings, romantic honeymoons, and more. The hotel features 305 guestrooms and 79 pool villas, while the adjacent Mövenpick Residences Phu Quoc offers 329 apartment-style residences, perfect for families and extended stays. Patrick Basset, Chief Operating Officer of Accor, Upper Southeast & Northeast Asia and the Maldives says...

“This opening represents an evolution of the Mövenpick brand in Vietnam, and we are delighted to introduce our Swiss heritage and rich culinary legacy to the tropical shores of Phu Quoc.”

While the hotel’s excellence in service draws from Mövenpick’s Swiss heritage, the heart-felt hospitality delivered by its staff is a clear reflection of the warm and friendly nature of the local Vietnamese culture.

Designed in a tropical style, Mövenpick Resort Waverly Phu Quoc harmoniously blends modern and traditional touches with plenty of natural light streaming through full-sized windows. The contemporary guest rooms feature elegant interiors in soothing neutral tones. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors lead to private balconies in each hotel room, offering sweeping views of the shimmering sea or verdant mountains. Rooms range from a spacious 35 square metres to an expansive 72 square metres for a Junior Suite. Modern in-room comforts include complimentary high-speed WiFi, a pillow menu, and a fully-stocked minibar. 

For both long-term stays and weekend getaways, Mövenpick Residences Phu Quoc features studios and family rooms, each equipped with a kitchenette. The resort complex also features 66 two-bedroom and three-bedroom pool villas nestled around the lake, while the 12 three-bedroom pool villas and the Presidential Villa offer beachfront views where guests can enjoy the evening sunset. 

Mövenpick’s rich culinary legacy is evident in the extraordinary dining experiences available at the hotel’s many restaurants and bars, including a beach club perched on the golden sands of Ong Lang Beach. Open to both guests and visitors, Aura Beach Club features a sunken pool bar, a delectable Asian Tapas menu, creative mixology, a daily sunset ritual, and exciting entertainment. Other culinary delights at the hotel include international cuisine and a live cooking station at The Islander Restaurant; Vietnamese favourites and seafood at Lang Chai; local craft beer at Lang Chai Bar; and Vietnamese tea, coffee & chocolate hour at Waverly Lounge.

The family-friendly hotel promises to create meaningful moments for both parents and junior travellers with the Little Birds Club and M Lounge teen club. A Mövenpick Family program ensures the needs of younger guests are met, including age-specific bath amenities and a Power Bites menu. 

The resort offers six swimming pools, including two kids’ pools. Other wellness facilities include the Elements Fitness Center which features state-of-the-art equipment and a yoga studio. For some therapeutic me-time, Elements Spa & Salon features 15 treatment rooms, a sauna, and a jacuzzi. Guests can choose from an extensive range of wellness therapies and foot massages, as well as hair and nail treatments.

No small detail is overlooked with weddings and celebrations at Mövenpick Resort Waverly Phu Quoc. The 720 square metre Coral Ballroom featuresa column-free space with 6.8-meter-high ceilings and a large 324 square metre foyer that can host up to 860 guests. The ballroom can also be divided into four meeting rooms for smaller group meetings. 

The wonderful tropical climate lends itself to inspire exploration of the island’s lush natural landscape. Guests can trek through a dense rainforest that leads to a waterfall or bask in the serenity of coconut-shaded beaches. A delicious food tour through the night market, or visits to a pepper farm, pearl farm or fish sauce factory offer glimpses into the local Vietnamese way of life.

“We look forward to welcoming guests to our island home at Mövenpick Resort Waverly Phu Quoc. Guests can look forward to an exciting series of curated experiences during their stay with us, from an island exploration to a food tour in the night markets. The resort offers the perfect island getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life for those looking to spend a quiet weekend with the family.” - Philippe Le Bourhis, General Manager of Mövenpick Resort Waverly Phu Quoc
