Chay Lap Farmstay Quang Binh

This place a find. Not only was the location fantastic, a stopping point for trekkers, but also the place to stay if you’re wanting to go to the Phong Nha and or Paradise Caves. But the thing I appreciated the most was the warm, friendly and professional staff who I fel provided heat care and service. Phenomenal breakfasts too.

An oasis!!! This place was the perfect mix of rural beauty and modern comforts. Grounds were lush, butterflies and dragon flies frequently arounds. The grounds are full of cozy, romantic spots to sit and read in the shade or play cards and have a drink with friends. The staff was exceptional, so friendly and helpful. Helped us plan a route to Halong Bay and found us spots on a sleeper bus. They were very apologetic about nearby noise from seasonal practices of the locals involving chainsaws but it was not particularly bothersome, only lasted a couple hours and we weren't spending time in our room anyways. The kayaking was beautiful and free. The food was great.

It seems it can’t cater to international clients. Despite charging a heavy amount, the hotel is not giving good services to its customers. Bad part: 1. The chef is unable to cook vegan or vegetarian dishes. They just know how to cook tofu with tomatoes. I had to eat only this for two days. I had to catch a train early morning and asked them to pack Tofu and some noodles for breakfast. They packed dry noodles in a box and 2 pieces of soya with some plain water/soup in a plastic bag, which got leaked before I can eat it. It was a horrible experience during my entire 20days trip to Vietnam. They were also not allowing me to talk to the chef so that I can explain to him my requirements. 2. There is no WiFi in the rooms. 3. There is no phone in the rooms for any room service. 4. The pool is extremely dirty. Good part: The rooms are pretty decent in size. I will never recommend it to anyone and will never come back.
