Rach Vem, a pristine fishing village in northern Phu Quoc known as the “Starfish Kingdom,” is a must-visit destination on your journey to explore the island. With the Sheraton Resort to Rach Vem Private Car service provided by Phu Quoc Private Car, you can effortlessly enjoy the refreshing waters of Rach Vem Fishing Village.
We provide a private door-to-door service. You simply need to book your trip and wait at the Sheraton Resort; our driver will come directly to your location to pick you up. He will arrive in a high-quality, new-generation private car fully equipped with modern features.
We offer a diverse range of vehicles to suit the needs of all travelers. Whether you are traveling solo or with your loved one, a sedan is a perfect choice. If you are traveling with a family of four, an SUV will be ideal for everyone. Additionally, we offer minivans or limousines for larger groups. Whatever your transportation needs are, we can fulfill them. Most importantly, we provide a friendly and enthusiastic local driver to accompany you on your journey.
Why Is a Private Car the Only Smart Choice for Visiting Rach Vem?
- Maximum Safety on Rach Vem’s Challenging Roads: Although renting a motorbike may seem like the cheapest option, it comes with significant risks—especially for families with children and elderly travelers. The final stretch to Rach Vem includes rough, dusty roads during the dry season and muddy, slippery sections after heavy rain. Traveling in a high-clearance SUV or private car ensures a much smoother, safer ride while greatly reducing motion sickness compared to standard low-suspension taxis.
- Never Get Stranded in Rach Vem: One of the biggest challenges visitors don’t realize until it’s too late is that Rach Vem has virtually no taxis waiting for passengers. If you arrive by Grab or taxi, the driver will usually leave immediately rather than risk waiting on the unpaved roads. This often leaves visitors struggling to find transportation back to Duong Dong. With our private car service, your driver stays nearby and waits 3–4 hours, giving you plenty of time to enjoy the floating seafood restaurants, Starfish Beach, and sightseeing without worrying about your return journey.
- All-Inclusive Pricing with No Hidden Fees: Unlike traditional taxis, which may charge expensive waiting fees or require you to pay for a round trip, our service offers one transparent, fixed price. Fuel, parking fees, waiting time, and the return transfer are all included, so you’ll know exactly what you’re paying before your trip begins.
- Travel at Your Own Pace: A private car gives you complete flexibility throughout the day. Spend as much time as you like photographing the famous starfish, enjoying fresh seafood at floating restaurants, relaxing on the beach, or stopping at scenic viewpoints along the way. There’s no need to rush or follow someone else’s schedule.
- Comfortable, Door-to-Door Service: Your driver will pick you up directly from your hotel, resort, or the airport anywhere in Phu Quoc and take you straight to Rach Vem. After your visit, simply return to the vehicle and enjoy a comfortable ride back without searching for transportation or waiting for an available taxi. It’s the most convenient and stress-free way to explore one of Phu Quoc’s most remote attractions.
Our Modern Fleet Car
| Vehicle Type | Recommended For | Maximum Capacity | Best For |
| Sedan | Solo travelers or couples with light luggage | 2 passengers + 2 suitcases | Airport transfers and short-distance trips on paved roads. |
| SUV 7-Seater ⭐ Most Recommended | Couples, families, or small groups | 4 passengers + 4 luggage | The best choice for Rach Vem thanks to its higher ground clearance, superior suspension, and exceptional ride comfort. |
| Minivan | Large families or groups | 10 passengers + 10 luggage | Ideal for group tours requiring maximum space, luxury, and comfort. |
Why We Recommend a 7-Seater SUV — Even for Two Travelers
If there are only two of you, a sedan might sound sufficient, but we prioritize our customers’ comfort. The road from Sheraton Resort to Rach Vem is not entirely flat. If it rains, the road becomes muddy, and when it’s sunny, it gets very dusty.
Therefore, an SUV with high ground clearance, long suspension travel, and a sturdy suspension system will absorb shocks much more effectively. As a result, your trip will be significantly more comfortable. Furthermore, even with just two passengers, an SUV offers a more spacious cabin, allowing you to stretch your legs comfortably. Your luggage will also be stored in a large space without the worry of getting bumped around.
How Far Is It From The Sheraton Resort To Rach Vem?
The distance from Sheraton Resort to Rach Vem is 22.5 km (13.98 miles) — not too far, but not too close either. It will take travelers over 30 minutes for a one-way trip. Depending on the weather and traffic conditions, the travel time may vary.
Your private driver will pick you up directly at the Sheraton Phu Quoc Long Beach Resort and follow the DT45 route towards Ganh Dau, then turn onto a local road leading to Rach Vem Fishing Village. Along the way, you will pass by lush green forests, pepper farms, and peaceful countryside scenery, all showcasing the island’s natural beauty.

What To Do At Rach Vem?
- Visit the Famous Starfish Beach: The highlight of Rach Vem is undoubtedly Starfish Beach, where countless bright red starfish can be seen resting in the shallow, crystal-clear water during the dry season (typically from November to April). It’s the perfect place to take stunning photos, but remember to admire the starfish gently without removing them from the water to help protect the local ecosystem.
- Enjoy Fresh Seafood at Floating Restaurants: Rach Vem is renowned for its floating seafood restaurants built over the sea. Choose your favorite live seafood, including crabs, prawns, squid, sea urchins, oysters, and fish, all freshly caught by local fishermen. Dining while enjoying panoramic ocean views is one of the most memorable experiences on the island.
- Relax and Swim in the Clear Water: Unlike the busier beaches in southern Phu Quoc, Rach Vem offers a peaceful atmosphere with calm, shallow water that is ideal for swimming or simply relaxing by the shore. It’s an excellent destination for couples, families, and anyone looking to escape the crowds.
- Capture Incredible Photos: From long wooden piers stretching into the sea to colorful fishing boats and rustic floating houses, Rach Vem offers countless photo opportunities. The combination of turquoise water, white sand, and untouched scenery makes it one of the island’s most photogenic destinations.
