Duong Dong — Phu Quoc's Capital Town
Best infrastructure, night market walking distance, 10 min to airport. Villas for groups and long stays.
Area Overview
Duong Dong is the capital and largest town on Phu Quoc with complete infrastructure: hospitals, banks, post office, supermarkets, pharmacies. The famous Duong Dong Night Market — the island's top food attraction — is a 5-minute walk. Airport is just 10 minutes away.
The only downside: the town isn't on the beach. Long Beach is 7 minutes by scooter (provided free). But for those who value infrastructure, economy and convenience — especially for long-term stays and large groups — Duong Dong is the optimal choice.
