8. Mango Bay Resort | Ong Lang Beach
Want to completely disconnect for your holiday (or at least part of it?) Located over 10 hectares of stunning beachfront, Mango Bay claims to be the antithesis of luxury, and we’d say it’s more barefoot chic.
With just 44 rooms and villas (each of which is sans TV, air con, and phone), the resort hopes to take people back to an easier time, when things were slower and people were more conscious about the planet. Expect rustic finishes with four-poster beds and rammed earth villas here.

Fusion Resort Phu Quoc | NOW CLOSED
Full disclaimer, if you stay here, your friends will be super jealous. It’s impossible to take bad pics at this resort that is designed around a stunning circular central swimming pool. The beach is so clear and dreamy that you will want to float around all day, and the beach bar is the perfect place to whet your whistle between dips.
On the room front, all the villas have their own pools, and we love the way the resort is designed for maximum privacy. Wood features heavily here (sunken wooden bath, anyone?) with shells used as dividers and neutral colours. Oh, and did we mention that the spa is all-inclusive? Meaning that you can try a different massage or facial every day.
