Compared with the resort's own car

Resort transfer: Ask the hotel; not published.

Our private car: $42 (1.100.000₫) for a sedan, $46 for a 7-seater. Per car, tolls included.

Booked with us, the airport pickup comes at a fixed price per car, with the driver tracking your flight.

The drive

From the airport the driver heads east out of Saigon, then takes the Bien Hoa–Vung Tau expressway or the Long Thanh–Dau Giay expressway and the coast road, entering Vung Tau at the Thang Tam end. Pullman is on Thi Sach Street in Thang Tam, so you don’t pass through the centre.

The slow part is leaving Saigon. After that the road is fast. Friday evenings are the worst time to arrive: weekend traffic from the city fills the roads into Vung Tau.

Why a car

The hydrofoil from District 1 is quick, but it lands at the port and the hotel is a taxi ride across town. From the airport you’d also need to reach the pier first. A booked car goes from arrivals to the hotel in one drive, with a name sign, flight tracking and 90 minutes of free waiting. We hold our drivers to a standard of calm driving, sparing horn, no smoke and a clean cabin, and we send a 7-seater if you have children or bags.

Arriving at the hotel

The car stops at the main entrance. If you arrive before check-in, the hotel will usually hold luggage.

Who this suits

Families and couples who want a full-service hotel with a pool and kids’ club close to Back Beach, and weekenders from Saigon. It is a town hotel, so evenings are easy on foot to the Thang Tam restaurants. For the wider area, see Vung Tau; for something quieter, the Ho Tram strip is under an hour away.

Going back

Set the booking box to Pullman Vung Tau and the airport. Leave at least 5 hours before an international flight, and more on Sunday afternoons.

Our driver standard

The car you'd want after a long flight

Car quality in Vietnam varies wildly: a driver smoking between jobs, seatbelts tucked away or missing, a car that's done half a million kilometres. This is the standard we hold every driver to, and what we ask you about after every trip.

Calm hands on the wheel. Smooth, unhurried driving. Safety comes before speed, every time.
The horn is for emergencies. Not a musical instrument. Anyone who has sat in Saigon traffic knows why we say this.
No smoke, no perfume bomb. Nobody smokes in our cars, and there's no air freshener strong enough to make your eyes water.
Air you'd want to breathe. Cabin filters changed on schedule, so the air-con blows clean, not twenty years of exhaust.
Newer cars, kind suspension. Cars in good condition, with seats and suspension made for a four-hour drive.
Seatbelts that work. In every seat. Child seats are free on request.

FAQ

About this transfer

How long is the transfer from Saigon airport to Pullman Vung Tau?

Typically 1½ to 2¼ hours, about 100 km. Since the Bien Hoa–Vung Tau expressway opened in full on 18 May 2026 cars under nine seats can use it, which helps. Larger vehicles still use the old QL51 road and take longer.

Does Pullman Vung Tau run an airport shuttle?

The hotel does not publish a fixed transfer price. Ask the hotel when you book, and compare with our price in the booking box.

Can you take us from Pullman Vung Tau to Ho Tram or Mui Ne?

Yes. By private car Ho Tram takes about 45–60 minutes and Mui Ne about 3½–4½ hours. Each route and its price is in the onward table below.

How early should I leave Vung Tau for a flight?

For an international flight leave about 5 hours before departure. For a domestic flight, about 4 hours. Traffic back into Saigon is heaviest on Sunday afternoons.

Is Pullman beachfront?

No. It is in the Thang Tam tourist area, a short walk or drive from Back Beach, not on the sand.
