Sao beach. An embarrassment.

I was on Sao beach last year. And only remember it because of the rubbish. I returned today in hope locals got their act together. Sadly disappointed. It’s dirtiest renowned beach Iv ever been on. And prices in local restaurants have much higher than anywhere else. 45000 for a coke 100,000 for a coconut. Also clowns with drones taking pictures of themselves and their model girlfriends. Without any concern for other people’s personal space 🙄🙄. There are many nice beaches on island. Starfish ong lang , long beach Don’t waste ur time going to Sao.

Operator response

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. However, it seems this review was posted to the wrong business. The comments describe Sao Beach and local restaurants, which are not operated or managed by our company. We kindly ask future travelers to refer to reviews that reflect actual experiences with our services for an accurate impression.

Great overview of the south.

Tour was very well planned, I enjoyed the stops ( pearl farm, fish sauce, prison, Sim wine, lunch and beach, temple, pepper farm). Tour guide Tân spoke good English and gave us all the information. The bus was a little overcrowded..maybe one person too many😄. (The Pearl Farm is very special, they also carve items from fossil shells and fossilised wood.
