Movenpick Phu Quoc Review 2026: An All-Day Family Resort Stay
Discover the perfect family retreat at Movenpick Phu Quoc! We spent a full day enjoying breakfast, swimming, Chocolate Hour, and dinner without leaving the resort. An ideal escape for parents and kids alike.
With two kids in Phu Quoc,
even if you don't explore outside all day,
I found a resort where all your eating, playing, and relaxing needs
are perfectly taken care of~!
On that day, we didn't step
a single foot outside the Movenpick.
In the morning, we leisurely enjoyed breakfast outdoors,
spent the entire morning splashing around in the pool,
in the afternoon, we even indulged in Chocolate Hour,
and by evening, we had dinner all sorted within the resort.
At first, I wondered, “We've come all the way to Phu Quoc,
is it really okay to just stay inside the resort?”
But traveling with two kids,
it turned out to be an incredibly enjoyable schedule.
Especially when choosing a resort with kids,
breakfast is just as important as the swimming pool, isn't it?
Just avoiding having to take the kids out in the morning
to find something to eat
significantly reduces travel fatigue.
When we booked Movenpick,
we made sure to book with breakfast included,
and to put it simply, it was an excellent choice.
If you're in Phu Quoc with kids and want to focus on relaxation
rather than sightseeing,
try spending a day like this at Movenpick~
Movenpick Phu Quoc Breakfast: Where to Eat?
The place we went to was
The Islander.
According to official information, the current breakfast hours are:
Weekdays 06:30~10:30
Weekends 06:30~11:00
and it's operated as a breakfast buffet.
Looking back at the Movenpick breakfast photos,
it wasn't a hotel with an incredibly lavish variety of options,
but when we actually ate, we never felt like anything was missing.

There were various breads and pastries,
fruits, Vietnamese dishes, and Western-style options,
and even warm dishes like pho.
Officially, they offer a diverse selection, including freshly made noodles,
banh mi, pancakes, waffles, cheese, and rosti.
It was especially great that there were options suitable for children.

When traveling abroad with kids,
no matter how many breakfast options there are,
the kids usually only eat
a few familiar items like bread, fruit, and eggs, right?
Movenpick had those kinds of dishes,
so it wasn't difficult at all to get the kids' breakfast sorted.
I also had a warm bowl of pho,
and helped myself to various breads and fruits.
Overall, it was reliably delicious.
I Preferred the Outdoor Seating Over Indoors
And while having breakfast,
what surprised me and stuck most in my memory was actually the seating.
We sat outdoors,
and since it was morning, it wasn't as hot as I expected,
and the atmosphere was simply wonderful.
Having come all the way to Phu Quoc,
rather than eating indoors with the air conditioning blasting,
eating slowly while enjoying the outdoor scenery
really made it feel like a true vacation.
The kids also ate more comfortably outdoors than in the stuffy indoors,
and we even got another cup of coffee and just relaxed there.

More than remembering an incredibly huge variety of breakfast options,
the memory of our family sitting outdoors
and enjoying a relaxed meal
is what I cherish more.
And a Tiny, Yet Handy, Packing Tip!
If you're traveling with a one-year-old,
it's more convenient to bring a portable booster seat~!
While there might be high chairs somewhere,
they weren't easily noticeable when we visited.


If your child is still at an age where it's difficult for them to sit in a regular chair,
If you pack a portable booster seat,
breakfast will be much easier too.
So, if you're heading to Movenpick,
on days with good weather,
definitely try sitting at an outdoor table.
And if you're traveling with a toddler,
be sure to prepare a portable booster seat!

If you're at Movenpick with kids, Chocolate Hour is an absolute must!
And if you've booked a stay at Movenpick,
you definitely don't want to miss this!
Chocolate Hour.
True to its origins as a Swiss brand,
Movenpick embraces chocolate as a vital part of its brand identity.
And here at Movenpick Phu Quoc,
they host a daily afternoon
Chocolate Hour specifically for guests!

Currently, the official operating hours are
daily from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM
at Waverly Lounge.
Since you can enjoy chocolate desserts for free,
from our perspective as a family with kids,
it felt like a wonderful little extra event!
We also played happily at the main pool from the morning,
then came in right on time.
Swimming all day can tire kids out,
but when we said, “Let's go eat some chocolate now,” in between activities,
they got excited and followed right along!


Kids who love chocolate
will have their eyes light up! Haha.
Chocolate Hour isn't just about a few pieces of chocolate;
it's so much more than that!

Officially, they offer chocolate desserts like brownies and truffles,
along with a magnificent chocolate fountain!
You can dip various accompaniments into the chocolate fountain,
like fruits, marshmallows, and cookies.
It's a fantastic experience!
Since Chocolate Hour is a complimentary program,
if you're staying at Movenpick,
I highly recommend visiting at least once during its operating hours!
We took a short break from swimming, recharged with some sugar,
and even went back to our room for a quick nap.
According to our original plans,
we should have gone out for dinner that evening.
Our original dinner plan was the Duong Dong Night Market...
Our initial plan was
to visit the Duong Dong Night Market in the evening!
Since we came all the way to Phu Quoc, we wanted to explore the night market
and enjoy some local food outside before heading back.
However, reflecting on the day,
after playing at the main pool,
then the kids' pool,
and then the beach...
it wasn't just the kids who were exhausted;
Mom and Dad were completely drained too!

The thought of showering, changing, and then getting back into a car
to go all the way to Duong Dong...
Suddenly, no one wanted
to go to the night market anymore! Haha.
So, a very quick change of plans!
Let's just eat at the resort.
It's moments like these that make having dining options
within the resort incredibly convenient!

Ultimately, we ended up having dinner at The Islander too.
Movenpick's The Islander isn't just a breakfast spot;
it's an all-day dining restaurant
where you can also enjoy lunch and dinner.
Currently, the official operating hours for lunch and dinner are
from 12:00 PM to 10:00 PM.
The menu variety is quite extensive, ranging from Vietnamese and Asian dishes
to Western cuisine.
They had kid-friendly options like pizza and pasta,
plus dishes using fresh Phu Quoc ingredients,
so it was super easy for our family to pick out something delicious for everyone!

We were too tired to venture out, so we decided to eat in,
and it turned out to be a fantastic decision – the food was absolutely delicious!
Honestly, when you're traveling with kids,
being able to enjoy a comfortable meal right at your accommodation
and then head straight back to your room?
That's truly the best choice you can make.
Heads up: Prices here are a bit higher than eating outside Phu Quoc.
Honestly, if you compare the prices to restaurants in Phu Quoc city,
it's definitely on the pricier side~
But hey, it's a 5-star hotel restaurant within a resort!
Looking at the current menu for The Islander,
pizzas range from around 220,000-290,000 VND,
and some items also have separate taxes and service charges.
So, if you're thinking about local Phu Quoc prices,
you might walk in and think, "Whoa, that's pricey!"

However, when I thought about the cost of a family meal out back home in Korea,
it actually didn't feel burdensome at all.
Plus, and this is a big one, we didn't have to deal with the hassle of traveling to the night market
and back that day.
We just showered, put on comfy clothes, headed down,
enjoyed a delicious meal, and went straight back to our room.
When you factor in that level of convenience,
I really think it was an excellent choice!

Why Movenpick in Phu Quoc was so perfect for our family trip with kids
After spending a day there, I truly understood why choosing the right resort
is so crucial for a family vacation!
We'd enjoy breakfast, splash around in the water,
then revel in Chocolate Hour in the afternoon,
and comfortably have dinner right at the resort.
When you're with two kids,
it's absolutely fine to swap a day of sightseeing for just
eating, swimming, and relaxing at the resort.
We booked a pool access room with breakfast included,
which made it incredibly convenient for the kids to swim right outside our room!
If you're considering booking Movenpick,
make sure to compare not just room-only options, but also rooms with breakfast included
and the fantastic pool access rooms~!
