there are not places to stay. Rent a motorbike and ride around island, amazing place. There is a huge graveyard or memorial park. Go there daytime first and after sunset again. Then you realize how many humans France and USA killed there, about 20 000. There is a grave of Vo Thi Sau, the most well known freedom fighter.
There are several points worth noting about these services:
The Con Dao (Con Son) Airport is on the far north end of the island and a long way from anything else. If you have booked a hotel they will arrange airport transfer for you.
VASCO (Vietnam Airlines) operates ATR72-500 turboprop service on this route so overhead bin space is limited. Depending on your ticket VASCO/Vietnam Airlines will allow 10-20kg free baggage (Excess baggage is relatively inexpensive by international standards).
Air Mekong provides the only jet service to the airport with their Bombardier CRJ-900 aircraft. Overhead bin space is limited.
If you have not booked with a hotel and have your airport transfer arranged, getting into town is easy. There are a number of vans available coming to the airport for all the flights and the all of the hotel buses will be happy to take you along for 50,000 VND, (9/2012) they will even drop you at your destination if you know it.
Taxis are also available depending on arrival time. Have your hotel information written down for your driver. See the next section for more information on taxis
