Hmong Wooden Home

I don't think words can describe this beautiful place, but let's give it a try ✨ We stayed 3 nights at the Hmong Wooden Home and extended for another night because we loved it so much. The family booked our bus tickets and taxi so we didn't have to worry about anything when we arrived.(Hanoi to Sapa to Ninh binh). Everything went well and was so convenient for us. The place is about 20-30 minutes from Sapa and is located directly in the rice fields. The wooden house is so nice and cosy and the view is even better. We had a big cosy room with really comfortable beds, a hot shower and a balcony. They have a kitchen in the main house so you can eat in the house or on the big terrace upstairs. We ate there every day - breakfast and dinner. They have a large menu with vegan/vegetarian options. They take a bit longer to prepare the food, but it's worth it and the food is so fresh and good! Two times we had dinner with the family and they cooked local (vegan) things for us and we drank "happy water" (homemade rice wine in Guava). It was so nice. We felt like family ☺️ They also book trekking tours in the village for you if you want. And they have traditional painting workshops, which is also very nice. And the best thing is the family. It's a couple who run the homestay and they are so friendly and helpful. They don't speak English, but that wasn't a problem for us. We always used the Google translator. They told us so much about their lives, which we really appreciated. It was the best homestay experience we had in our 8 months travelling around South East Asia. We felt like family all the time and it was like coming home. So if you are looking for an accommodation in Sapa we can recommend this with all our heart ❤️❤️ Thank you for your hospitality 🙏🏼

Homestay owners are soooo lovely and kind! Really nice house in a rural neighbarhood, perfect for relaxation!

The property is immaculate clean, beautiful and with all the possible comforts in the room This family is simply fantastic, kind and generous We shared dinner together and the food was delicious They help you to organise anything you need as well I would recommend this stay to anyone and I would definitely come back Thank you 🫶

Everything: 1. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. They booked us the sleeper bus from Hanoi and the taxi for the accommodation for a great price. 2. The accommodation is wonderful, with great views, nice furniture and all the essentials! 3. The hosts organised the activities, we learned the art of Batik and when trekking!

We had a wonderful stay. The family who runs the place was really helpful and organised everything we requested. We learned a bit about the Hmong culture (e.g. tried sewing). They even drove us to the bus station in Sapa themselves when there were no taxis available. The room/bathroom was nice and clean and just recently built, so everything was in a good condition. The Homestay is in the middle of the rice terraces and a good starting point for hiking trips in to the valley.

A bit noisy from 6.30 am on due to motorbikes as the room was right next to the road. The main room/dining room needs a bit more decoration and "cozyness" as it is quite empty with only a few tables and chairs.

We loved everything there! The staff, hosting, stay, comfort, environment, everything!

The only issue is to get to the property, it's little remote away from city, but there are taxi services and the host can arrange a transport by themselves as well.

Comfortable spacious nicely decorated room, with modern bathroom and lovely views. Great place to relax for a few days (we spent 4 nights here). Beautiful mountain vistas. Restaurant on site. Outdoor balcony. Great to do hikes on your own to various local villages, or you can hire a guide. Owners will book you a private taxi at good rate back to Sa Pa if you want.

there are some neighbourhood dogs who may bark at night, so earplugs are helpful if you are a light sleeper

We had a wonderful time here. The family are lovely and great hosts. They kindly upgraded us to a VIP room free of charge. They permitted us to arrive at 3am (from Ha Giang). The room is the best room we have stayed in during 11 months of travel, the view is wonderful. The food provided by the homestay is good and reasonably priced. There are other places to eat within walking distance and we discovered grocery stores within 1 km. The location is great, you are staying where others are guided to for the view. You see them outside taking photos. The waterfall shower was hot and the broadband was good. The room very clean and the bed very comfortable. You can pay an extra 50,000 dng per day (currently) for the A/C, but we didn't need it, the fan provided was sufficient. We chose to avoid Sa Pa and the constant Mama hard sell, choosing to stay in Su Pan in tranquility, then walk independently (via hiking apps). But if required, the family has an English speaking sister-in-law who is the most reasonably priced guide we found. Staying here gives you an insight into Hmong people and their culture. The products being made and how they live, everyday was a learning day and we loved it. The best bit about staying here is the kindness of the whole family. They speak little English, but we became good friends through Google Translate into Vietnamese. If you do stay, do not translate into Hmong, Google doesn't really work. Sinh is really good communicating on Booking.com in English. This place was so nice, clean, comfortable and quiet, plus the family were so nice, we are sad to be leaving. They arranged our taxi from and to Sa Pa, plus sorted out our bus tickets to Ha Noi with a good company. Did I mention they had puppies and kittens, so cute.
