Which areas of Phu Quoc should travelers avoid to stay away from beach drainage outlets and unpleasant smells?

Central Long Beach is the area specifically flagged to avoid: travelers report frequent drainage pipes close to the beach. For a beach stay, look for a hotel outside the central Long Beach section.

The concern is mainly odor and unpleasant conditions at the waterline rather than resort-level cleanliness. Before booking, check recent shoreline photos and how close the property is to central Long Beach.

The practical recommendation is simply not to stay in central Long Beach; according to the discussion, beach stretches outside that core area are less likely to have visible drainage outlets.
