Lakeview Homestay Vu Linh

We really loved this accommodation! It’s an authentic homestay where you truly get to spend time with the family. We had dinner together with the host and her friends, and in the morning we went to a local market for breakfast. The place is clean, with a hot shower, two Western-style toilets, and an incredibly warm and welcoming host. 10/10

The bed was a bit firm.

Quiet place with fresh air and hot water in the shower. Relatively clean place.

The view was ruined because they built a shelter in front of the house, not a Lakeview anymore. Didn't provide any dinner, nor a breakfast.

The location is great, beautiful view from the terrace.

The owner will charge you the price on booking/person. It’s 153000VND each, with no breakfast no dinner not even a coffee. Watch out because she’ll offer stuff like a bath or anything but at the end you’ll have to pay without being aware of it. To sum up : a bit overpriced and the owner doesn’t speak a word of English so explaining everything by google translate was quite a challenge (I don’t know if she was not understanding on purpose or not…).

The family was so fun and lovely! Even with the language barrier, they made us feel like part of the family. The floating rooms were fun too! The scenery is absolutely beautiful.

All the toilets are squatty potties.

We had a great time at the homestay. Hường booked a bus for us from Hanoi and then picked us up. We went swimming and out on the lake with a boat, and we sang karaoke. For breakfast Hường took us to the market.

Location

They tried to scam us. When we arrived they told us that the price is 50% higher. BREAKFAST IS NOT INCLUDED IN PRICE. They also offered us coffee and didn’t informed that we have to pay 20k for each instant coffee we drink. No communication in English.
