Phong Nha Farmstay

The private pool in the room were absolutely perfect. Spot on point. The staff were so friendly and very accommodating in every way you couldn’t ask for more. It was so relaxing and in the most amazing spot overlooking the right field so romantic.

Location was remote...the rooms themselves do not have much of a view which is a shame...but the central reception, pool and restaurant and bar have an excellent view and atmosphere

The room's aircon was not working. Sadly the rooms have been designed w high ceilings, which means whatever limited aircon is being wasted cooling irrelevant ceiling space and leaving the room rather warm

Wirklich wunderschöne Unterkunft, tolles Personal. Dank geht raus an Ben und seine Familie!

Le personnel est exceptionnel. Les conseils ont été avisés. D'une extrême gentillesse.

Three of us were lucky enough to stay in Elements Villa Kim, which was a short ride from the main area in the ever available free transport, in an absolutely beautiful region of wonderful Vietnam. Stunning accommodation with huge bedrooms on one side of a covered courtyard, connected on the other side to a spacious lounge/kitchen/dining room area, with a third shower room and toilet. Through the courtyard was our private swimming pool in the garden area. On the first floor was an enormous patio area, with another kitchen and a fourth shower room! The main area comprised the entrance courtyard, reception, large dining area and a good sized swimming pool, all with beautiful views out over the pastures. The staff couldn’t have been more polite and helpful, and the whole place is a huge credit to the owners who put it all together. Superlatives all round!

Beautiful room. Fairly quiet though right on country road with plenty of scooters still. Nice view. Good food at restaurant. Friendly staff. Solid massage therapist on call.

Inconsistent water pressure and AC. High priced food and drink. Added fees.

Beautiful property! Gorgeous views of rice fields and nice area to walk around. The room and bathroom were clean, bed was comfy, and AC worked well. Staff was nice and owners really involved and kind. Insanely cool: this resort basically put the entire phong nha National park and town on the map. When they built it, no one was allowed in the park and their families thought they were insane…now it’s a major tourist destination, literally because of them and this place! They also provide great ideas for day trips (walks, self-guided scooter adventure to visit some caves, actual tours with company/guide, etc) and will help you arrange whatever you want. The owners are around and super friendly, want to make sure you have a fun trip!

It’s a bit removed from the city. We biked an hour in to town, or you can ride a scooter/grab like 20 min. Not crazy far, but for better or worse, there is nothing much around. The food is just okay, but costs 2-3x regular food in Vietnam which was a little bit of a letdown, especially since there are no other options nearby. Dont get me wrong, the food is fine, but not worth the markup. It’s not actually a FARMstay, like not a functioning farm. If you are looking for a more traditional home/farm stay (and there are lots of lovelyyyy ones we have been happy to stay at in Vietnam) this is not that — it’s more a resort with beautiful farm views. Which is also great! We don’t stay in a lot of super nice resort type places — usually more budget travel style — but It kinda feels like this place just marks prices up for things (laundry, scooter rental, food, etc all at least double normal Vietnam prices) just because they can. By no means exorbitant costs (especially by American/European standards), but you definitely pay more than typical Vietnam prices.

Location nice rooms and friendly staff.

Nothing

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit at this lovely farmstay. The staff was wonderful and the rooms were clean and very comfortable. The food was fabulous.

The outdoor chair cushions could use a little refreshing but still a great outdoor space.
