Mango Home Riverside

From the start there was confusion about rooms, our friend was allocated an older room that was damp with paint peeling off the walls. She was then given our room and our luggage was dumped outside a room further up the path, Our room when we finally moved in was clean and quite large. There were 2 beds, both mattresses were very hard to be honest I've never slept on a harder bed then this . There was no mosquito nets at all. It would have been nice to have one over the bed. The bathroom was clean with new tiles and a good shower, but what was totally ridiculous was the ceiling as this was partially uncovered, allowing small insects like mosquito to come in. We constantly had to spray the bathroom and bedroom with insect killer, also when it rained the floor in the bathroom became soaked and very slippery They did supply a large can of insect killer which was left in the room. The staff are extremely helpful The 2 main problems for me staying at this resort was the food, and the unevenness of the pathes I'm sure it's very difficult to cater to everyone's taste The breakfast was good on the whole but I had to ask repeatedly to have hot a omelette not one that had been cooked earlier and was being kept warm The portion they gave us were stupidly big meaning we left more then half, we had to ask for smaller portions The food was bland with no real spices being used in the process of cooking, not even salt and pepper sometimes The meals like chicken soup had tomato and pineapple and yellow pepper. Combination was Yuk. One meal that got a massive thumbs down was a large fish that was deep fried so that the scales were falling off it, but it looked like it had maggots crawling over it. I have eaten in all sorts of restaurants good and bad and this was no at all good. I went to bed twice feeling hungry as I had hardly eaten anything as the flavours were too awful for my pallet Other guest were equally surprised with the food, one family chose to only have chips because the meal they were offered was so awful The second reason I didn't find this resort particularly good was that I have Parkinsons and found the place difficult to get around with many trip hazards, the tiles in the bathroom became slippery when wet the dining area outside was so slippery when it rained I had to be super careful. I'm uncertain if anyone in a wheelchair would be to use thus resort as the paths are all gravel or stone chips

A hidden gem of tranquility We loved our stay here, so calming and restful! Just what we needed after HCMC! Excellent service, great food, clean spacious rooms with good beds and a lovely chilled pool area. Wasn’t bitten to death by mozzies although was expecting to be. What makes the place so special are the staff! A huge thanks to Ben (he really was so helpful) good English and very helpful with local information and transportation to onward destinations. Can recommend the local white wine really not bad! and goes well with soda as a spritzer. Highly recommend this place, the sunset cruise was good. Borrowed their bikes FOC and had a good ride around the quieter lanes, nice to see local village life. Good value!

This is a perfect place for both relaxing and experiencing the Mekong Delta. Don’t hesitate to book this, it’s really a steal for the price, and a family owned and community oriented business. Its an intimate resort experience, but very clean and the service is impeccable. I highly recommend the tour they offer as well.
