The Secret Con Dao

Beautiful resort. Great location with lovely food. Good value for money and definitely recommend.

We were initially hesitant about staying here after reading some reviews mentioning rude staff, but that couldn’t have been further from our experience. The staff were absolutely incredible—kind, welcoming, and always willing to help with anything we needed. They truly made our stay feel special. We loved our room and the property overall. The resort is beautiful, well-maintained, and has such a relaxing atmosphere. It was also very convenient to walk around, with everything we needed close by. Overall, it was a fantastic place to stay, and we would definitely come back.

The room cleanliness was superb & this was maintained throughout our stay. We really like the idea of being ecologically friendly with the changing of bed linen & towels on request only. The staff always has a smile & a good morning for us. The welcome platter was a beautiful touch. The very disappointing thing during our stay was lack of available sun beds by the pool & beds being reserved with towels & not used for the greater part of the day. I only managed to get a sunbed on our final day for a couple of hours in the late afternoon. As this was the last week of a very busy 3 week trip to Vietnam that was supposed to be all about relaxing by the pool with my book I was quite put out. Also at breakfast time it was sometimes extremely busy & hard to find a table. The staff seemed to be a bit overwhelmed with the amount of work they had to do & very often foods were not replenished in a timely manner & the coffee machines were often ‘out of action’ We also found the service to be lacking at the Spice Restaurant, after waiting 35 minutes to order a drink (it was not busy) & then told that our first 3 drink choices were not available ( which one of them was fresh coconut?????) Having said that the hotel itself is beautiful with fabulous views & we certainly loved our stay on Con Dao Island.

Was great when we visited but it was low season and thus the hotel may feel less spacious in high season Good access to the sea via steps bypassing the rocks or 500m to the start of a beautiful beach I am vegan and the
