Tropicana Resort***

Our brief comments: The Tropicana's super beach
The Tropicana is a basic resort with mostly bungalow accommodation. Despite its limited facilities, it's popular with visitors and therefore often fully booked. It's recently undergone a substantial upgrade, adding rooms, air-conditioning in most rooms, and hot water.

Accommodation is in a small terrace of rooms overlooking nothing in particular and with a fan for ventilation. The rest of the accommodation is in attractive air-conditioned thatched bungalows with either garden or sea views. Inside, there's comfortable rattan furnishings and private patios. All rooms have en-suites without bathtubs.

The gardens are dotted with mature palms reaching down to an excellent beach with palm-Inside one of the rooms - simple, uncluttered and comfortablethatched sun shelters, some with hammocks for mid-day snoozers.

The restaurant and bar are simple affairs of bamboo and rattan. There's not much in the way of on-site recreational activities, but an in-house 'fix-it' man can arrange just about anything for a reasonable consideration.

It's reasonably priced, as eco-friendly as you're likely to find in Vietnam, a friendly staff and a laid-back ambiance. If you can do without satellite TV, safety boxes and the rest of the paraphernalia in posher establishments, it's worth consideration.
