Fleur de Lys is located on the outskirts of a small fishing town about 1.5-2 hours drive from Ho Chi Minh. It was very quiet when we first arrived, this seemed to pick up a little over the weekend. Most of the guests seemed to be Vietnamese. The resort itself comprises a series of villas and rooms located in picturesque and well tended tropical gardens on the slope of a hill leading down to the beach, so most rooms have sea views. We stayed in a two bedroom villa which was two bedrooms separated by a bathroom. It was smallish and the bathroom had a curtain rather than a door which might not suit everyone, but worked well for us and was great value. The rooms had all the mod cons you would expect from a high-end resort. There are other larger (and smaller) options available. The pool and restaurant are located next to the beach. There is also a large spa offering wraps, scrubs facials and a variety of massages with prices that are very reasonable by western standards (35-40 AUD for an hour facial/massage when we were there). My daughters and I enjoyed several of the treatments on offer and they were all great.The buffet breakfast was very comprehensive, with Local, Asian, European and UK offerings. There were fresh tropical juices every morning and a huge array of hot and cold dishes included in the overnight price. More than enough to keep you going all day! We ate most nights at the restaurant which was located right on the beach with a nice sea breeze in the evenings. There was a good selection of local and western foods on the menu. The pool was large and well tended with a pool bar for cold drinks and snacks. The beach was cleaned every day by the resort staff and supervised by a lifeguard. We swam on a few mornings but spent more time at the pool. There was also a playground and pool toys for the little kids. Overall we had a fabulous stay, the staff were lovely and the location, food and amenities great. If you are after a quiet, well priced and relaxing holiday with family or friends this is the place for you. For those looking for a bit of nightlife, Vung Tao on the other side of the peninsula is a bit livelier.
