Emblems Phu Quoc will mark the line’s debut in the Vietnam market when it opens in Q1 2025.
Local low-rise
The hotel will be positioned on Sao Beach, overlooking the ocean close to the southern tip of Vietnam’s Pearl Island. This locally-inspired low-rise retreat, being developed by Dai Minh Phu Quoc Company Limited, will feature 122 bright, naturally-lit guestrooms and 24 villas.
Dining choices will include two restaurants, a coffee corner, and a live music bar. Wellness provision encompasses a spa and bath house, a yoga studio and a fully-equipped fitness centre, as well as an outdoor swimming pool and children’s pool. Events will be able to be held onsite or on the beach.
Vietnamese flagship
Maud Bailly, CEO of Sofitel, Sofitel Legend, MGallery and Emblems for Accor, said: “We are delighted to introduce the Emblems Collection brand to Vietnam. Each property in this original hotel collection is completely unique and inspired by the essence of its destination.
“The Emblems Collection hotel in Phu Quoc will not be just another new resort on this popular island; it will become a flagship for Accor in Vietnam and a new destination in Phu Quoc’s tourism crown. We look forward to working with our esteemed partners at Dai Minh Phu Quoc Company Limited as we bring this iconic new property to life.”
