A nice peaceful stay with a lovely family. The host was helpful with explaining how to get there from HCM city. Dinner was prepared upon arrival which was delicious. We we able to book activities, all at reasonable prices. The boat tour was very nice, cycling around an binh was fun as the local children joined us. We did a cooking class and prepared ourselves a delicious lunch. Overall, a very nice place to visit away from the big city.

Nice homestay and location. We had dinner and it was very good. The next day we took 2 bicycles and visit around for few hours. In general a good experience.

The kindness of the sisters, the bike rides, the amazing cooking talents of the hostest and the cleaness of the house and room. Really a place to come back

Very friendly host and family. We enjoyed our stay with our friends there.

The bungalow was quite dark and the window and door were not tight, so we had mosquitoes in the room and no mosquito net over the bed. We also had a noisy animal on the roof, so unfortunately we didn't get much sleep.

The family was very nice! We left one night early as we had a very noisy animal on the roof so we couldn't sleep that night. However, we got a discount for the second night - thanks again! :) The dinner was very plentiful and really tasty, we can highly recommend it. The boat tour was also nice, we visited many local productions.

Hard mattress (standard and now used to this in Vietnam). Dinner was a little on the pricier side that we hadn't factored in when bringing cash to the island, but delicious so glad we ate here.

We wanted to get away from the crowds and experience the local Mekong and this was exactly that. We arranged a pick up from Can Tho with the host which worked very well. Loved using the hammocks and the free bikes. Water pressure was excellent for the showers and rooms had nets which we used. The food was the highlight for us here, amazing cooking and made us try dishes we may not have chosen ourselves, delicious.

No shampoo or shower gel so you should prepare that

You can have dinner with the host family at a very affordable price. Location is close to the ferry, in a big garden which gives a fresh breath

Gorgeous place, extremely kind and nice!! The breakfast is amazing. On the last day, I left very early and they insisted on preparing breakfast for me before I left 😍

Friendly & helpful staff/owners, hammocks if you like, very good dinner and choice of Vietnamese breakfast if you prefer it over eggs, we're also very thankful for the opportunity to take the boat to Can Tho instead of the bus, which was a lovely trip

Mrs. Tahn really is a good host. Picked us up at the ferry, booked for us a great boat tour, cooked a fantastic meal for us and even booked or trip back to Saigon. The accommodation is very nice as well. we stayed in one of the bungalows with a/c and a giant private bathroom.

Everything! It's a perfect guest house for a weekend away in the middle of the Mekong Delta. The garden and the bungalow are amazing. The very friendly and welcoming family that owns the property will make you feel at home. Bikes are free and in decent condition. Really recommended.

The bathroom was poorly equipped, no soap or toothbrush like in all the other home stays I've been and the sink and toilet leaked and caused an always wet floor. The garden was once started nicely but it lacked some blooming flowers like all the neighbours have, so it looked a bit sad. At night there were loud animals fighting on the roof and in the bathroom. Around the house were a lot of parties going on in the nearby community houses, so it was rather noisy. All in all you can do with all that, but it was not at all "fabulous".

I'm sorry to say it, but I really expected something else after all the fantastic reviews. Yes, a nice family - like all the families in the home stays we've been to. Not very communicative or caring. If you need something, you have to find someone and ask for it. Then they make sure you get it. Although everything kind of worked of and we even had AC in the private bungalow (which worked good!) , I would not describe the home stay as "fabulous". No soap, no shampoo, no toothbrush, only one towel per person and no change of towels unless you ask for it. No fridge, no kettle, no possibility to make your own tea or a small snack. Bathroom almost outside (although brick built and walled), leaky sink and toilet, very basic shower, bathroom and toilet floor always wet. Sewerage goes straight out into the garden. Only one mosquito net for two beds. No free water bottles (e.g. for brushing teeth) as in other places. But a welcome drink in the form of a coconut. That was nice. The free bicycles are in rather poor condition. We ended up renting them from another accommodation. The garden looks a bit sad compared to the blooming paradises around the corner. The first night it was rather quiet, but the following 3 nights AND in the morning there was always party music somewhere. often it came from 3 directions with different music and one louder than the other. After 2 days I got used to the low standard and felt quite okay. The sisters are nice (when you see them), as is the welcome (when I finally found someone to talk to and ask my questions about how everything works and where to find things - then finally we had a nice chat). In other accommodations we've been to, they've taken care of the guests, had suggestions for excursions and tips to give. Here you have to ask for everything. The door between the bathroom and the bedroom in the bungalow has to be closed very carefully at night so that the rats can't get into the bedroom.

We chose this homestay because of the good reviews across platforms. We were looking forward to an authentic home-stay experience at the end of our Vietnam trip. However, the first contact with the hostess was disappointing..already the inquiry via WhatsApp, about which bus connections we get the easiest to the homestay was answered quite annoyed. We arrived at the ferry to the island and after a few minutes of walking towards the Homestay we have been instructed by the hostess, which came towards us on a scooter, with the words: "I'm from the Homestay, we will do it one by one" to climb on the scooter to be transported one after the other to the Homestay. Once there, we were told to "follow" and "this is your bungalow"... without another word we were left there standing. We swallowed that at first and thought maybe she had a bad day or just doesn't speak English well (although at least a Hello, here on the island the friendliest little kids keep shouting from everywhere). Over our whole trip we tried to be really open, honest and heartwarming to the people in Vietnam, and that always worked out great, until we met this hostess. After unpacking we asked for a vegetarian dinner and were looked at as if we had personally offended/insulted her. We experienced the same the next morning when we asked for milk for coffee at breakfast. All in all, we experienced the hostess as hostile towards us and this hostility ruined our stay in this actually beautifully located homestay. Sometimes she was quite friendly or ,,normal“ but most of the times we asked her anything she seemed annoyed by us and gave us the feeling of not being welcome here right now. However, one has to differentiate with the husband. We strongly suspect that he is the reason for the multiple positive reviews of this homestay. If we only had contact with him, we probably would have given the same 5-star rating.
