I enjoyed the silence and the very big room. But the Hotel needs some Renovation. The staff was very friendly.

The hotel was beautiful and in a wonderful location. It was very quiet. We stayed in one of the rooms by the beach and the view was spectacular, especially of the sunsets each day. Service was a bit slow in the restaurant but breakfast was self serve and well stocked. Would highly recommend this hotel

It was really nice to have a swimming pool and beach right in front of me, and the coffee at breakfast was really delicious. Please tell me the name of the coffee. The room we stayed in was a little old, but the other rooms seemed to be remodeling in sequence. If I go again, I will stay again.

It s a very nice hotel; however, it is getting a bit old. The rooms are extra comfortable and it is very quiet. We were at the hotel not the villas. The view is spectacular specially to watch the sunsets. The cleanliness could be improved and the towels provided could be less harsh. The set up is also very nice except for the beach; it is very small and you can’t take a walk. The food is good but can be improved. All the staff were very nice. I still recommend that place. We slept like babies!

Not a five star hotel or resort. Grounds and villas need maintenance. Room was not up to standard of cleanliness for 5 star and price. Grout was black/moldy/exposed. Poor nighttime lighting. Hard accessibility to local scene. Limited staff.

The property was well maintained even though tourism is still a bit down from covid. The views of the water and sunsets are beautiful and the pool and lounge area were clean and modern.

The staff were incredibly friendly and polite, which certainly made the experience at The Shells more enjoyable. The food and the bar had very good and tasty options. Stayed for two nights, and didn’t feel the need to go anywhere outside the property. It definitely met our high expectations.

Ocean View Room had an amazing view! The room was nice. Only complaint was service. Housekeeping did not leave us with clean towels, had to always request. Called to have toilet leak fix numerous times before someone came out. Service was extremely slow and lacking. Also lacking was the selection of restaurants on site, there was only 1 restaurant and 1 lounge on the property. Activities offered were lacking as well. The hotel is not conveniently located near shops and restaurants so having to call taxi/Grab costed a lot every day. The hotel does not seem to be upkept and seem old and not very modern compared to other hotels and was told this was one of the first hotel built on the island.

10/10

The view from this property is stunning. The pool is huge and faces the beach. We rented a bike at the property itself for a decent amount. They also provide cabs at the same fare as Grab taxis. However this is a resort and hence is only for those who like a little peace and quiet. Food could be priced a little lower.

The staff are very nice and helpful. Breakfasts are delicious. The room we booked 4 nights with private pool, and last only for 2 nights. Then, they moved us to another room which was different. In the end, they tried to fix things but it’s not same.

The property was not as advertised. This could have been due to it being off peak season. Our room phone was broken so we couldn’t order room service as was our tv. The garden maintenance around our villa was poor. There is no sand at the beach. There is only one restaurant. Food was ok. The breakfast variety was ok also. Please note that this villa is far from anywhere. Took us 30 mins to get to grand world and casino and restaurants were also far. There was zero entertainment. They played music at the pool twice during our stay. Overall I wouldn’t stay here again.
Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2024

The best thing about this resort was it's staff. The resort itself was advertised as a 4 to 5 Star resort. given my extensive travel I would rate this resort in its current condition with consideration of the staff only a one star. place is run down outdated room decor in dire need on a complete refurbishing. You can not make something old, dirty damaged unkept any different except when taking photos from a distance that will not show up the problems as they have done in their presentation. The management spoke to us before we left and asked us for some feedback and we gave them the exact same response as above. We respectfully told them that unless things change dramatically we could not see ourselves returning even though the location is great.

My friends and I love the places; however I won’t rate this one 5 stars because the bathroom is not clean. House keeping needs to learn how to remove stains and mildew.
Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2022

The Shells has really lovely staff and a 24/7 buggy service to get around the resort (from pools to room or restaurants/reception). However, the resort rooms lack cleanliness as the once beautiful white tiles have a yellow tinge to it. I sympathise with the choice of white as Phu Quoc can get very hot and white is less likely to retain the heat. I trust that they are clean, however, upon first glance, feel a little put off. The rooms are spacious and the pool is nice to use. 2/3 of the pools were under maintenance and I believe that they will reopen at the end of 2024. The shells is a decent stay, however I don’t believe it is still the 5 star resort it once was.
