PHU QUOC, Vietnam, Oct. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- If the ideal Australian holiday looks less like a rushed checklist and more like an immersive, 14-day slow travel escape wrapped in raw natural beauty, authentic cultural vibes, and endless outdoor exploration, a new tropical sanctuary awaits. Nestled perfectly in the vibrant Marina Complex precinct of Vietnam's stunning paradise island, AMÉRYS Hotel Phu Quoc has officially announced its grand opening scheduled for the first day of November, 2026. Custom-designed around the captivating concept of "Ocean Warmth", the property delivers exactly what mindful Aussie travellers crave: effortless relaxation, deep connection with nature, and pristine, uncompromised safety for the kids.
Spacious Sanctuaries Built for the Long Haul
Reflecting its philosophy of "Designed for Togetherness," AMÉRYS features 113 wave-inspired rooms and coastal suites ranging from light-filled Superior setups to expansive multi-bedroom configurations tailored for multi-generational families. Each sanctuary is crafted with vast breathing space, allowing families to spread out, read a book on the balcony looking over Marina Square, and share slow mornings together. Crucially for parents, rooms incorporate child-safe rounded corners, secure balcony and corridor railings, and barrier-free pathways ensuring absolute safety for both children and seniors.
Authentic Eco-Adventures & Ocean Conservation
Phú Quốc island is an outdoor lover's playground, and AMÉRYS functions as the ultimate basecamp for sustainable exploration. Stepping out of the resort, guests can easily lean into authentic local experiences—from trekking through lush national park trails to kayaking past hidden mangrove forests.
True to the eco-conscious spirit of Australian travellers, the hotel's strategic partners offer meaningful opportunities to connect with local nature. Families can join marine conservation initiatives, coral reef restoration education, or wildlife workshops. It is a brilliant way for kids to learn about protecting fragile tropical ecosystems while having the absolute time of their lives.
Total Peace of Mind at Azuria Kid Club & Wellness
For parents to genuinely switch off, the little ones need to be engaged in a space that is both thrilling and utterly safe. Step into the 500-square-metre Azuria Kid Club located on the first floor. Every square inch of this dedicated kids' wonderland—themed creatively around "Sand"—is fitted with certified, high-standard safety equipment and supervised by expert staff. It features an indoor mini-cinema, intellectual mini-games, and an integrated movement zone with slides. While the children are busy with safe sensory play, parents can slip away to the Les Sens Spa for a holistic Japanese-style thermal therapy or experience the authentic hot-cold sauna rituals.
Useful Information for Australian Travellers
