Has potential, but not a resort
Pros:

Beutiful place, kind reception guy that helps with everything, room is clean with great aircon and beautiful mountain placement.
You can rent bikes, bicycles and they are helpful with tours and such

Cons:

It may be priced like a Resort and maybe for Cat Ba's low standards it is - but it is definitely not a resort, and you don't really get a "Bungalow", but small rooms in train arrangement.
Food is below average, maintainance needs to be improved, noisy children in the pool afternoon, the location is far from everything.

Kind of had to search for people if I need anything, even for breakfast.
You need to work to make it work, underwhelming for the price

Pros:

Beautiful place, away from the busy centre, Tran is very beautiful and helps me with lots of things. We will come back and can't wait to see Tran and everyone ☺️😄

If you are a climbers, it's close to most crags not too far from town and it's quieter here.

Thank you for helping us and having us.
Group of 3, we have 2 Bungalows.

Cons:

Love everything

Hơn cả mong đợi ! cảm ơn Papillon
Pros:

- Phòng sạch sẽ, Bể bơi to, sâu rộng,
- Vườn rộng, nhiêu cây, nhiều hoa vô cùng, xem bướm bay, có rất nhiều chim vào khu nay như lạc vào giữa núi rừng để nghe chim hót
- không gian sạch sẽ, thoáng mát nhiều góc để chụp ảnh
- Đặc biệt nhà hàng đồ ăn tươi, ngon, chị chủ cẩn thận, và yêu nghề, nấu ăn đúng bằng cái tâm, nhân viên ở đây cởi mở, không thấy cáu mặc dù chúng tôi gọi mọi thứ vì gia đình có trẻ con nhiều lúc chúng tôi thấy ngai mà họ vẫn tươi cười giúp đỡ.
- dịch vụ họ có tour thăm vịnh giá cũng như mọi nơi nhưng được đưa đón tận nơi và trên tàu có rất nhiều người nước ngoài, cơ hội cho các cháu nhà tôi nói tiếng anh, thấy rất vui.

Cons:

không được ở đây lâu hơn

Pros:

Prima prijs kwaliteitverhouding, leuk zwembad. Kamers zijn prima. Er zijn ook familie kamers. Je kan er fietsen en scooters huren. Je kunt er alles boeken van cruises tot transfer, je kan er geld wisselen. Echt niets is te gek.

You should absolutely stay at this gem!
Pros:

Everything! There were four of us and we would all give this homestay 5 stars. Lovely pool, lovely staff. There was a mix of styles of travel: couples, solos, friends and families. There is a restaurant, bar and scooter rental- what else do you need?!

Cons:

I wish the pool was colder bc it was SOO hot outside, but that is really not possible😅 And we still used it at all times of the day!

Pros:

Beautiful location, remote and peaceful and relaxing. Taxi from there to cat ba town was only 150 renting scooters was easy and another 150. Mini bar was well stocked and very reasonably priced, staff were kind and friendly and it had a very family vibe. Food was brilliant especially with us being veggies. The tofu was amazing. It's certainly somewhere to go where you want to disconnect from the world. WiFi was perfect too and pool was nice! Good changes in depth for those of you who are short and cannot swim well like me! Perfect for what we were looking for! Beds are really comfy and clean towels daily!

Cons:

Nothing it was all good!
