Sheraton Phu Quoc Long Beach Resort, situated on a 4km beach in Vietnam's tropical island of Phu Quoc, has unveiled an update to its guestrooms and public spaces.

The resort's new look blends subtle tropical accents with modern simplicity. The revamped lobby, adorned with rugs and custom-made furniture in muted tropical tones, now serves as a communal hub for guests to mingle or conduct business.

Adjacent to the lobby, the newly launched &More by Sheraton is a specialty coffee concept by day and a lively bar by night.

The resort's accommodation has also undergone a rejuvenation. All ocean-facing rooms, suites, and villas now showcase a clean and soothing colour palette. The rooms are flooded with natural light during the day, offering ocean views, while blackout curtains ensure a peaceful sleep experience.

Sheraton Phu Quoc has also committed deeper to sustainability with more initiatives to reduce plastic waste. Glass water bottles are now provided for all guest rooms and restaurants, refilled at a local bottling plant that uses deep water wells.

Additionally, the resort has replaced plastic straws and stirrers with eco-friendly alternatives. Additionally, the property actively participates in Marriott's "Serve 360 - doing good in every direction" 2023 campaign, focusing on resource optimisation and waste reduction through the circular economy.

One of the notable sustainability projects at Sheraton Phu Quoc is the pilot project to convert food waste into fertiliser. This initiative processes an average of 30kg of food waste daily, which is then used to nourish the resort's palm trees and organic garden. As a result, the resort produces 1,300kg of fresh vegetables per month and ensures humane living conditions for farm animals while protecting endangered marine species.
