What differentiates the hotel from others in your opinion?
What is very interesting is our guests like to travel with their families including multiple generations. Mövenpick Resort Waverly Phu Quoc suits this type of guest since there is something for all ages. With more than 305 hotel rooms with sea-view balconies, Mövenpick Resort Waverly Phu Quoc is the ultimate destination for a weekend getaway for young families.
We offer a perfect harmony between peaceful relaxing secluded space and enjoyable common space with funny activities such as Chocolate Hour, aqua Zumba, beach party, and BBQ pool party.
For multigenerational families, 79 villas with delicate touches and amenities tailored for each of our visitors, such as villa butler service, private villa BBQ dinner and sunset foot massage, are the ideal place for families to bond and spend quality time together. At the same time, Mövenpick Resort Waverly Phu Quoc is ideal for couples who like to come for a romantic getaway or stay in a honeymoon villa and for incentive groups who can use our ballroom and enjoy their gala dinner at the beach.
How do you remain competitive within your region in terms of the hotel’s offerings?
Our key message is “We make moments”, we believe life is lived for moments and all of the memorable moments will make life wonderful. We know the small gestures can make all the differences, from ordinary things in an extraordinary way – that the philosophy key to our brand success from the start. We are honored to inherit 70 years of rich culinary legacy; we guarantee to bring to our guests the best unique and quality food.
Besides, we use Accor’s Planet 21 to develop our resort services. Mövenpick Resort Waverly Phu Quoc also has a global partnership with Green Globe, which supports our green initiatives and respect for the environment.
Through this partnership, we also develop our teams and provide training so that they then carry the message to their families and local communities. Additionally, everyone involved in the tourism industry in a destination should work together along with the local authorities to further develop local initiatives.
How do you expect the association with Haute Grandeur will benefit your brand in the medium/long run? Which market segment do you cater for?
Our main aim for 2021 is to continue to develop and focus on the domestic market and incentive groups. We are very fortunate that Phu Quoc is a very attractive destination for these segments. We will also get ready for international business, which hopefully will start again at the end of the year.
We have been successful in our domestic market and start to get attention from international guests. To go further, we’re lucky to have Haute Grandeur as a trustworthy partner to promote our brand outside Vietnam, Asia and help us to be recognized.
