How Much Does It Cost to Get from Phu Quoc Airport to Your Hotel

Phu Quoc is affordable by Southeast Asian island standards, and airport transport costs reflect that. Here is what you will actually pay in 2026.

Taxi fares by destination

Metered taxis at Phu Quoc Airport are the most common way to reach your hotel. Fares are calculated by the meter and are reasonable:

• Duong Dong town center: 150,000-250,000 VND (6-10 USD)
• Long Beach (near section): 100,000-200,000 VND (4-8 USD)
• Long Beach (south end, near JW Marriott): 200,000-350,000 VND (8-14 USD)
• Ong Lang Beach: 200,000-300,000 VND (8-12 USD)
• Starfish Beach / Ganh Dau (north): 300,000-500,000 VND (12-20 USD)
• Vinpearl resort area: 350,000-500,000 VND (14-20 USD)
• An Thoi town (south): 250,000-400,000 VND (10-16 USD)

These are metered fares. Some drivers may offer a flat rate, which is usually slightly higher than what the meter would show but can be convenient for budgeting.

Grab pricing

Grab, Vietnam's dominant ride-hailing app, operates on Phu Quoc and is typically 10-20% cheaper than metered taxis. A GrabCar to Duong Dong usually costs 120,000-200,000 VND. The app shows the fare upfront, so there are no surprises. The catch: you need a working phone with data immediately after landing. Purchase a SIM card in the arrivals hall if you do not have roaming.

Pre-booked private transfers

Private transfers from the airport to anywhere on the island typically cost 250,000-600,000 VND (10-24 USD) depending on the destination and vehicle type. The premium over a taxi is modest, and you get a driver waiting with your name, no need for cash or a SIM card immediately, and a vehicle suited to your luggage.

For groups of 4-6 people, a minivan transfer is often cheaper per person than individual taxis and far more convenient.

Hotel shuttle costs

Many resorts include airport transfers in their room package or offer them for a set fee. The JW Marriott, InterContinental, and Vinpearl properties often have dedicated shuttle services. Check your booking confirmation or email the hotel directly. Complimentary transfers are common at 4-star and above properties.

Saving money on transport

The cheapest option is Grab, followed by metered taxis. If you are staying near Long Beach, you are very close to the airport and the fare is minimal. For the northern resorts, the distance is greater and the savings from comparing options become more meaningful. Regardless of method, Phu Quoc airport transport is one of the more affordable aspects of an island holiday.
