Cat Ba Countryside Homestay

Excellent place.

Convenient place for a short stay

What a wonderful experience. My girlfriend and I were met with an overwhelming level of gracious hospitality. The area is very safe and quiet yet still close to town. The food at the restaurant is excellent, and the accommodations surpassed all of our expectations. I would absolutely stay here again.

Big thanks to everyone who made my stay on Cat Ba island so comfortable and convenient. It was a real find, and everything from the hotel room to the downstairs restaurant was perfect. The place itself is beautiful, with orchids hanging out the front, a pool, garden in the back. The room was ensuite, very clean, a soft bed and decent shower pressure, with a view out the window. It would have been great value for money even at much higher price. What I paid was very good, even by Cat Ba standards in off season. There was a lot of convenience offered in terms of organising trips and renting motorbikes and pushbikes, the manager was extraordinarily obliging. He really went above and beyond. There is a restaurant downstairs I ate in most days. Very good and at a good price. It was very convenient that everything was contained this way. In my opinion it is much better than staying in town, you get much more of a feel for the island and the town is only a short ride away. 10 out of 10, stay here, you will not regret it.

We stayed at this lovely guesthouse for 20 nights and could not be happier that we choose this homestay. It is located in a small authentic Vietnam village with two shops and a Hospital Cave nearby. Rooms are basic, but very clean and our room in a second floor had a nice balcony and big windows, so threre was a lot of natural light. Family who runs the homestay is living in a same property and we really felt like a small part of their family as well. They were really hospitable and kind, always ready to chat and organize everything we wanted- bus rides, boat trip, laundry and motorbike rental. Cat Ba town is about 15 minute ride away, but most of the time we enjoyed eating at a homestay restaurant. The food was actually better than in most of the Cat Ba restaurants we visited. In our last night at the homestay, family organized a bonfire and dinner for us, it was really lovely and nice surprise.
