The house has a wooden bridge to the place, to avoid getting lost, everyone should find a place with a sign called Nha Tren Bien and then go in.
There are full services here from eating seafood to visiting the mussel canal. The prices are clear and reasonable.
Fresh seafood, delicious processing, sea view and swinging hammocks make it extremely chill.
The homemade tamarind ice is delicious, everyone. I drank 1 glass and was not satisfied so I bought another one.
The owner is a young, energetic and extremely thoughtful person. Her hospitality is something I will always remember even though it has been many months. We really need people working in tourism with such a heart.




We went to a private beach for lunch and swim, seafood is fresh and delicious. We have a great time today. If you want to get away from the crowd and back to the nature, highly recommend!!




Lots of boat trips on offer…
An from Nha Tren Bien Joy Adventires is the B.E.S.T
We walked out to their restaurant & jumped on the boat to view Starfish beach.
Highly recommend the BBQ scallops!
Ps beer is also cold!!





















I believe our driver, Mr Money, was also their friend and all of us set out together on the fishing experience, allowing me to feel the closeness of what we call “kampung spirit” in my country.
While waiting for them to load up the boat, two young girls scooped up some sea urchins for us to take photos with, they were very friendly and explained to us how to avoid getting hurt from handling the sea urchins.
Our guide was An, he instructed very clearly on how to use different rods/reels to catch fish. Although our catches were small fishes, I enjoyed the reel fishing. One of our crew member went diving for scallops and sea urchins for us, they managed to catch some bigger fishes while they were diving for shellfish.
While we were fishing, they prepped sashimi sea urchins and one of a fish that is famous for sashimi for my bro and father, needless to say, they enjoyed it a lot. They even bring wasabi and lemon for the sashimi experience.
After which, we headed to an island where they cooked our dinner. Freshest seafood ever, since some of the seafood were the ones just freshly caught. They cutely set up a picnic mat and table, brought along some cold drinks, various sauces, some of it were made by their mum (I believe she’s the restaurant chef). She also cooked fried rice and pomfret fish for us to have it for dinner. Hands down one of the best food I’ve tasted.
At dinner, a crew gifted me and my bro with a present each, handmade by him. He was very meticulous and knew exactly what we would appreciate. He gave my bro a handmade necklace which my bro loves it so much while he made a bottle of seashell collections for me to admire. I think he is very observant and knows how to read character very well because both of us really appreciate what he picked for us. So very different and something so accurately specific to our likings.
Then we went for squid fishing after sunset, despite being informed by Joy that it wasn’t squid fishing season, they still took us out to attempt. An managed to catch one but the rest of us weren’t that lucky. After trying out 3 different spots, we went back to the restaurant and Mr Money drove us back to our hotel, concluding our fisherman’s experience.
We really enjoyed ourselves thoroughly, had the freshest seafood and experience the humble life of a fisherman. I highly recommend anyone who wants an immersive cultural experience when they visit Phu Quoc island. Thank you Joy Adventures for this experience!
- My family rented a boat to Ham Rong here, 4 people cost 150k each, going to Ham Rong has beautiful sea and starfish, very worth experiencing 👍
- The food and drinks are quite delicious, suitable for my family's taste, the sea area has fresh seafood, the lovely owner even gave my family a plate of rambutan clams for using the train service to Ham Rong 💯👍🤩🥰
Overall, my family is very satisfied and will return to House on the Sea when traveling to Phu Quoc ❤️
Fresh and delicious seafood with reasonable price
The staff are enthusiastic and cheerful.
The food is quite delicious: crab fried rice, herring salad, rambutan clams.
Will definitely come back in my next PQ trip, and highly recommend for any one out there 🙂
Reaching the restaurant is an adventure in itself. The approach involves walking along a 200-meter-long wooden bridge—uneven and full of character—which perfectly encapsulates the authenticity of traditional Vietnamese life by the sea. It felt like stepping into a different world.
For our meal, we chose the silver pomfret fish, served with tomatoes and steamed rice. It arrived beautifully presented in the classic Vietnamese style, and we were delighted by its simplicity and flavor. The fish was tender, easy to eat with minimal bones, and absolutely delicious. Initially, we were the only diners, as the blustery weather had likely kept others away. However, a group of five arrived shortly after, and their presence only added to the atmosphere—our private, tranquil lunch spot came alive with a gentle hum of activity.
I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to anyone exploring the area. On a calmer day, the boat trip to Starfish Beach would undoubtedly enhance the experience, and I hope to return to try it myself when the weather is more agreeable.
One thing to note: the final stretch of the journey—about a quarter mile—is quite bumpy for scooters, and cars can only go so far. If you’re driving, you’ll need to walk the last 400 meters. Trust me, though, it’s well worth the effort!
We drove into the 'village', and all kinds of pushy sellers came towards us to sell us the 'starfish boat' to go to the beach.
We ignored this and then we reached this restaurant via the gangplank.
We ordered something to drink, and because other people were going to the beach by boat, we were also asked if we wanted to join them. We said yes to this and then arrived at the beach, a lot of tourists 'playing' with the starfish, it hurts your heart to see how people do that for their pleasure and social media.
Very, very nice staff! Following a recommendation, I ate the rice with crab meat and it was incredibly good! Since I also saw the boat trip to Starfishbeach on the menu, I spontaneously did it! It was great! 200k - even though I was alone. I was picked up whenever I wanted via WhatsApp!
I will definitely go there again and eat more ❤️🫶 Perfect day
From there a boat trip to Starfish Beach is offered.
For 2 people 200,000 VND per person, for several people it is even cheaper. There is no need to book in advance, just drive there.
On site you will receive a bracelet with the WhatsApp number that you can contact if you want to be picked up again.
Unfortunately we didn't get to eat in the restaurant. But the menu looked incredibly good at very reasonable prices.
We had the best iced coffee of our entire trip in this restaurant. There is also a wonderful ambience in the stilt house.
The staff is totally welcoming.
The road to Starfish Beach was very bumpy, and I was very confused when I came to this restaurant. When the proprietress came to pick us up and arrived at the restaurant, we were super surprised. The sea water was very clean, the service was friendly and fluent in English, and the transfer to see the starfish was also great.
Order your meal first and then go out to see the starfish. Then you can have your meal when you come back👍👍👍
Starfish Beach is super clean and beautiful
The restaurant is very clean and easy to take photos. The hammock is also easy to lie down in. The sea breeze is very comfortable and super chill💖
Very good experience: at the end of the morning we had a lime juice while admiring the view
Then we left for the starfish beach thanks to their boat service
On the way back we tasted the local fish and it was delicious.
Very good day ☺️
Smile is the common language💯
Highly recommend to call to book in advance as there are many places like this other there.
They're a family own fishing & squid boat business. Impeccable service, speaks good English. Can't get any fresher seafood and they're honest to have informed her which seafood were in season and only served the best!
Don't forget to say hi to a black & white frenchie!
Something they could work on would be their access. It's rather far out & there were no proper roads. So, grab & taxis can be slightly costly than other destinations
- FOOD IS 5 stars
- SERVICE WITH WARM WELCOME
- PRICE IS AFFORDABLE AT ALL
MUST TO TRY WHEN COMING PQ
We read about this restaurant and were excited to visit. They not only met, but exceeded our expectations. The crab fried rice is insanely delicious with a good amount of crab meat. The Chom scallops, which were grilled next to us, are also on point. Highly recommended on food alone.
The atmosphere is amazing and makes for a beautiful ambience to a great meal. It seems to me like a family restaurant with a lot of kind people. Very welcoming.
They also brought us to the nearby starfish beach by boat for a reasonable price. Which I recommend doing.
Owner is super friendly and hospitable, speaks mandarin and english. We ordered the crab fried rice, clams and mantis shrimps. Every dish was so fresh & delicious, we could taste the “sea” in the seafood.
Customers only come walk-in or by word of mouth, no pushy sales tactics like some other neighbouring restaurants.
Value for money seafood, chill owner and relaxing views of the ocean. Will highly recommend seafood lovers to come here.
The whole experience dining here made us feel so welcomed that we went there a second time before our trip was over.
This is the highlight of our Phu Quoc trip for sure 🙂
