InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) has signed a management agreement with M.I.K Corporation (M.I.K), for a 300-room Crowne Plaza hotel on the island of Phu Quoc. Crowne Plaza Phu Quoc Starbay will be one of IHG's first hotels in Phu Quoc and the company's third Crowne Plaza in Vietnam, joining Crowne Plaza West Hanoi and Crowne Plaza Danang.
Slated to open in 2017, Crowne Plaza Phu Quoc Starbay will be part of the new Star Bay/Green Hill development, which will also feature a lagoon, beach village and a range of shops, restaurants and bars.
The hotel, which is accessible via major highways, is close to both the island’s town centre of Duong Dong and the new Phu Quoc International Airport, making it a prime venue for corporate and leisure events.
The hotel will have a beautiful wedding chapel, ideal for couples looking for a unique wedding destination. After a romantic beachside nuptial, the bridal couple and their guests can adjourn to the 240-seater ballroom for the evening banquet to round up the night.
Located along the coast of Dai Beach in north-west Phu Quoc, guests will be steps away from stunning beaches offering pristine white sand and clear waters for an afternoon of lounging, snorkelling and scuba diving. Dai Beach was ranked “Top 100 Beaches” by CNN in 2013 and “Top 5 Hidden Beaches” by ABC News in 2008. The hotel’s all-day dining, beachside specialty restaurant, “Surf Shack” and pool bar will provide guests with a great choice of options for meal times, and with a fully equipped fitness centre, outdoor pool, spa and kid’s club, there will be something for everyone who comes to stay.
