Čudovito zeleno okolje, a slabe sobe
Pros:

Bazen, čudovito okolje, prijazno osebje

Cons:

Oprema je zastarela, posteljnina ni bila čista, soba je imela vonj po zatohlem in plesni, klime se ni dalo nastaviti na manj, hladilnik je bil zelo umazan. Za ta denar bi pričakovali več.

Prima voor als je rustig en wat afgelegen wil verblijven in Cat Ba
Pros:

Het is mooi gelegen in de natuur. Gelukkig niet in Cat Ba dorp. Daar wil je echt niet zitten. Zo druk en toeristisch.
Er is een groot zwembad. Bij de eigenaar kun je alles regelen.

Cons:

Doordat het wat afgelegen ligt, moet je voor elke verplaatsing of een taxi of een motorbike nemen. Dit telt wel op en had ik niet zo bedacht van te voren.

Het ‘resort’ is wat matig onderhouden. Je ziet dat het betere tijden heeft gekend.

El personal lo salva
Pros:

El ambiente está genial, todo es cómodo y el personal es muy amable. Hay opciones de desayuno y en el restaurante siempre hay algo que picar.

Cons:

Está un poco alejado, aunque si pillas moto son 15 minutos. La limpieza no es lo mejor, entiendo que hayan bichos, pero en nuestra habitación había una araña gigante que vivía debajo de la cama. Si limpias mejor lo puedes evitar.

Little disappointing
Pros:

At first glance, the property appeared to be a pleasant place, surrounded by greenery with several families enjoying the shared garden. The staff were also friendly, although their English was somewhat limited.

Cons:

However, both the outdoor facilities and especially our room felt somewhat dated and could benefit from some maintenance. Especially If you are considering booking the family room, it may be worth noting that it does not yet appear to be fully completed. There were a few openings in the roof that allowed insects, such as cockroaches, to enter, which unfortunately affected our comfort and made for a less restful night.

Fijne plek, maar kan beter
Pros:

De rustige ligging en de mooie tuin maakten het een fijne plek om te verblijven. De bedden lagen comfortabel en het diner met lokale gerechten was erg lekker. Ook werd de kamer dagelijks netjes schoongemaakt.

Cons:

De familiekamer was voor drie personen erg krap en bood weinig opbergruimte. De badkamer is toe aan renovatie en het zwembad voelde niet schoon. Ook vond ik het jammer dat het hotel na vertrek een e-mail stuurde met het verzoek om geen negatieve review achter te laten, waardoor de beoordelingen minder betrouwbaar aanvoelen.

Wonderful stay at Cat Ba, very nice location
Pros:

Very nice staff in a beautiful surrounding. A bit away from the buzz of the major town but easily acessable and just what we looked for. Very helpful staff. Nice place to relax and explore Cat Ba.

Cons:

The accomodation has a lot of cozy places but need some work to bring back to glory.

Lovely spot in amongst a beautiful garden . Not really a resort and bungalows a bit underwhelming - very small and boxed
Pros:

Great location out of town in lovely garden

Cons:

Beds were uncomfortable and bungalows not bungalows rather detached rooms . I was in the third row so the view was the next one , 2 metres away
