Tropical Paradise Destination

Why Visit Hon Thom Island (Pineapple Island)?

Hon Thom Island, affectionately known as Pineapple Island, is the largest and most breathtaking jewel in the An Thoi archipelago at the southern tip of Phu Quoc. Once a quiet, isolated fishing village known only to local fishermen, the island has been transformed into a world-class eco-tourism destination while preserving its stunning natural topography.

Visiting Hon Thom is not just about visiting an amusement park; it is about stepping into a tropical sanctuary. The island is famous for its powder-soft white sand beaches, swaying coconut palm groves, and crystal-clear turquoise waters that rival the Maldives. The most popular beachfront, Bai Trao, offers a picturesque curve of sand shaded by ancient palms and decorated with unique rock formations, making it the perfect spot for sunbathing, swimming, and snapping unforgettable vacation photos.

For nature enthusiasts, the surrounding coral reefs are teeming with marine life, offering some of the best snorkeling and diving opportunities in Phu Quoc. The island’s relaxed, ocean-breeze atmosphere contrasts beautifully with the high-adrenaline water park slides, ensuring that whether you are looking for pure relaxation or non-stop adventure, Hon Thom Island provides the ultimate escape from the mainland.

Guinness World Record Journey

Why Ride the Hon Thom Cable Car?

The journey to Hon Thom Island is just as spectacular as the destination itself. Boarding the Sun World Hon Thom Cable Car is an absolute must-do experience when visiting Phu Quoc. Certified by Guinness World Records as the world’s longest three-wire sea-crossing cable car system, it stretches an astounding 7,899.9 meters (nearly 8 kilometers) from Sunset Town to Pineapple Island.

As your cabin glides smoothly high above the ocean, you are treated to breathtaking 360-degree panoramic views that are simply impossible to experience from a boat. Below you, the sea transitions from vibrant turquoise near the shore to deep ocean blue. You will look down on the bustling An Thoi harbor, colorfully painted wooden fishing boats bobbing in the water, floating aquaculture villages, and lush, green uninhabited islets scattered across the horizon.

The state-of-the-art three-wire technology ensures an incredibly stable and silent ride, even during gusty coastal winds. Each spacious cabin accommodates up to 30 passengers, featuring large floor-to-ceiling glass windows that are perfect for capturing aerial panoramic shots. The entire crossing takes about 15 minutes, serving as a mesmerizing, scenic flight that is widely considered the highlight of any Phu Quoc vacation.

Cost-Efficiency & Convenience

Why the Buffet Combo is the Smartest Choice

Visiting Hon Thom Island is an exciting, high-energy day of swimming, sliding, and walking. By mid-day, you and your family will have built up a massive appetite. That is where the Buffet Combo (Option A) excels.

Massive Cost Savings: At official rates, the price difference between Option A (Buffet Combo) and Option B (Ride Only) is exactly 300,000 VND (approx. $12 USD) for adults and 200,000 VND for children. If you attempt to purchase lunch individually on the island, a standard single plate of rice or a basic burger will easily run you 200,000 to 280,000 VND, plus an additional 40,000 to 60,000 VND for a drink. The Buffet Combo is essentially an all-you-can-eat banquet with a free beer or juice for the price of a single street meal.

Complete Comfort: Mango Restaurant is the largest and most comfortable dining establishment on Hon Thom Island. It features a spacious, fully air-conditioned main dining hall with clean facilities, high-quality seating, and professional service. Eating here provides a much-needed break from the tropical heat, allowing you to rest, cool down, and recharge before heading back to the water park slides.

Ideal for Families & Groups: When traveling with children or large groups, coordinating individual orders at busy snack stalls can be chaotic. The buffet eliminates this stress. Everyone can pick their favorite dishes immediately—whether it’s fresh seafood, hot noodles, or Western snacks—ensuring a smooth, pleasant group dining experience.

The cable car crosses the sea between Sunshine Station (Sunset Town) and Hon Thom Station. Cabin boarding is only permitted during the following slots:

1. Morning Session

09:30 – 11:30

Best session to catch for a full day of swimming and early lunch.

2. Mid-Day Session

13:30 – 14:00

Short 30-minute window. Catch this if you want an afternoon visit.

3. Afternoon Session

⚠️ CRITICAL LUNCH TIMING WARNING: Because the cable car does not run continuously, you MUST board during the Morning Session (09:30 – 11:30) if you want to enjoy the buffet lunch comfortably. If you miss this window, the next cable car departs at 13:30 (1:30 PM), leaving you with very little time to reach the restaurant before it closes at 3:00 PM.

FAQ Helpdesk

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the Hon Thom Cable Car Buffet ticket and Mango Restaurant experience.

What is the difference between Option A and Option B tickets?

The primary difference is the inclusion of the all-you-can-eat lunch buffet at Mango Restaurant on Hon Thom Island. Here is a quick breakdown:

  • Option A (Buffet Combo): Includes round-trip cable car ride, full entry to Aquatopia Water Park, access to Exotica Village rides (wooden coaster and observation tower), free entry to Kiss Bridge, 1 complimentary buffet beverage (beer/juice/soda), and the full seafood & international buffet lunch at Mango Restaurant.
  • Option B (Ride Only): Includes everything listed above except the buffet lunch and the complimentary beverage.

We highly recommend Option A for families and travelers spending the whole day on the island, as buying lunch individually on the island is much more expensive and dining choices are limited.

What are the dining hours at Mango Restaurant?
The buffet lunch at Mango Restaurant is served daily from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Because the cable car does not run continuously and has a mid-day maintenance shutdown between 11:30 AM and 1:30 PM, you must plan your arrival carefully. We strongly recommend boarding the cable car from Sunshine Station during the morning session (09:30 – 11:30 AM) so you can enjoy the water park first and have a relaxed lunch. If you cross during the mid-day session (13:30 – 14:00 PM), you should proceed directly to the restaurant upon arrival on the island.
Can I buy the buffet lunch separately on Hon Thom Island?
Yes, you can purchase walk-in buffet tickets directly at the entrance of Mango Restaurant, but we strongly advise against it. The walk-in price at the restaurant is higher than the combo package rate. By pre-booking the Option A Buffet Combo through our website, you save approximately 80,000 to 120,000 VND per person compared to buying the cable car and buffet separately on-site. Additionally, pre-booking guarantees your dining slot, which is important during peak tourist seasons when the restaurant reaches maximum capacity.
Are vegetarian and vegan options available at the buffet?
Yes. Mango Restaurant serves a dedicated array of vegetarian-friendly dishes, including steamed tropical vegetables, vegetable fried rice, mixed garden salads, fresh rice sheets, crispy vegetarian spring rolls, and seasoned tofu dishes.
What happens if I miss the cable car morning session?
If you miss the morning cable car boarding window (09:30 – 11:30 AM), you will have to wait until the next operating session starting at 13:30 (1:30 PM). During this two-hour gap, the cable car system is completely shut down for technical inspection and maintenance. If you are forced to take the 13:30 PM session, you will arrive on Hon Thom Island around 13:45 PM. Since the Mango Restaurant buffet closes at 3:00 PM, you will need to go straight to the buffet line first before doing any water park activities or sightseeing.
Is entry to Aquatopia Water Park free?
Yes. Standard entry to Aquatopia Water Park, along with all its 21 waterslides and pools, is completely included in both Option A (Buffet Combo) and Option B (Ride Only) tickets. There are no separate gate fees.
Can I bring outside food or drinks onto the cable car or island?
Sun World strictly prohibits guests from carrying outside food or beverages to Hon Thom Island. Bag checks are conducted at the Sunshine Station boarding gates. Personal baby formula and essential medications are exempted from this rule.
Where is Sunshine Station located and how do I get there?
Sunshine Station is the main departure terminal located in Sunset Town (Thi Tran Hoang Hon) at the southern tip of Phu Quoc Island. It is roughly 25 kilometers south of Duong Dong Town (about a 40-minute drive) and 18 kilometers from Phu Quoc International Airport (about a 25-minute drive). You can easily reach Sunset Town by taking a Grab car, a local metered taxi, renting a motorbike, or booking a private transfer. There is ample free parking available at the station entrance for cars and motorbikes.
How are child ticket categories measured?
Sun World determines ticket categories strictly by the height of the guest, measured at the entry turnstiles. The rules are:
  • Children under 100 cm: Free of charge for both the cable car and the buffet.
  • Children between 100 cm and 140 cm: Eligible for the Child ticket rate.
  • Guests above 140 cm: Require a standard Adult ticket.
Please ensure you measure your children before booking to choose the correct category. Height measuring posts are placed right at the gate.
Does the buffet ticket include complimentary drinks?
Yes! Every Buffet Combo ticket includes one voucher for a complimentary beverage. You can exchange this voucher in the restaurant for one draft beer, fresh fruit juice, or canned soda. Traditional water and iced tea are also freely available on the buffet counters.
Is there a luggage storage service at the station?
Yes, Sunshine Station provides a secure luggage room where you can store large backpacks, suitcases, or heavy bags free of charge while you spend the day on the island.
Are towels and lockers included at Aquatopia Water Park?
No, locker and towel rentals are not included in the ticket price. Changing rooms and showers are free to use, but renting a secure locker to store your clothes, phones, and wallets requires a small rental fee (around 30,000 to 50,000 VND depending on the locker size) plus a key deposit. Towel rental is also charged separately (around 50,000 VND). To save money, we recommend bringing your own beach towels and avoiding bringing valuable items that require large storage.
What happens if the weather turns bad on the day of my booking?
In cases of severe storms or high winds, Sun World may temporarily suspend the cable car for safety. If this occurs, we will contact you immediately to reschedule your trip or process a 100% refund.
Can I get a refund if I decide not to use the buffet after buying the combo?
No, once you purchase the Option A (Combo) ticket and scan it at the cable car entrance, the voucher is fully activated. It cannot be partially refunded or downgraded to an Option B ticket on the island.
Is Kiss Bridge entry included in my buffet ticket?
Yes! Entrance to the iconic Kiss Bridge in Sunset Town is fully included as a complimentary benefit in both Option A (Buffet Combo) and Option B (Ride Only) tickets. You can walk the bridge at no extra cost.
How do I receive my tickets after booking online?
After you submit your booking form on our website, our local team will process your order immediately. You will receive a confirmation message and your official Sun World digital e-ticket QR codes sent directly to your WhatsApp or Email. These QR codes are fully active and contain your ticket data. When you arrive at Sunshine Station in Sunset Town, you do not need to queue at the ticket counters. Simply walk straight to the boarding turnstiles, scan the QR code from your phone screen, and board the cable car. It is 100% paperless and hassle-free.
