I choose to have lunch at Bo Ke Hong Phat seafood restaurant, good taste, small seafood. The shop is quite empty. In my opinion, if you want to eat fresh seafood in Phan Thiet, customers should choose Cay Bang restaurant.

I moved to The Cliff Resort & Residence. Monday night, this place is a reasonable resting place. The Cliff has a luxurious, clean design and beautiful view without criticism. Since I had to get up early to take a Jeep tour all day, I wanted to stay at the 4-star resort.

I book the Terra Ocean View room (area of ​​142 m2) with full amenities, especially a jacuzzi tub. Room rates range from 3.6 to 4.9 million VND for weekdays and weekends.

Guests can have dinner at Vista restaurant located on The Cliff. The menu with many dishes, I am most impressed with the hot pot with fresh seafood, sweet and sweet bone broth, Phan Thiet fish sauce and roasted peanuts, smooth, rich and fragrant porcelain bananas. This is a Phan Thiet specialty that visitors should not miss.
