I love staying in this resort (although it's a little small), sunbathing in morning/ late afternoon and breathing fresh air of the ocean, listening to the waves. I stayed in a garden view bungalow where can see many kinds of colorful flowers. It made me feel peaceful when i wake up and quite enough for me to enjoy my laziness... More

One of the best resorts we ever stayed. The view was amazing, the room clean and comfort with a large balcony. The restaurant was very good with breakfast included. The service was excellent. The staff was very very friendly and helpfull, especially Mr Thang and Ms Trang from the reception and also Ms Hang, Ms Ha and Ms Loan from... More

We had very bad experience in this resort. The superior room is a very low budget bungalow that you pay as a 5 star hotel. The pier is not prepared for landing boats. With a not so bad sea we had to jump from a boat in the middle of the sea and arrive there swimming. The reception stuff, specially... More

I went on the 2 day tour of halong bay with the monkey island cruise. 1 night in the boat, 1 night in the island. First day was fine, food in the boat wasn't bad at all. But then on the second day, everything went wrong. The transport across cat ba and into monkey island is not well prepared, and... More

The setting is beautiful and staff are fine and helpful. However, a couple of things on the hotel website are misleading to say the least. Although Air conditioning is available, it is only available between 9 at night and 6 in the morning. Fans are available in the room but very weak so when things get really hot there's only... More

Reading the other reviews with lower rating I have to agree with most of them. The only thing different for us (me and my partner) was that the staff we talked to was very kind: Ha, the girl who served food, was always very polite and kind, Thang (I'm not sure exactly what he was incharge of) gave us helpful...

We took the 2 night tour - one night on boat and one night on the island. The boat section was great. Great food, great boat, great helpful staff. Next day, it did do downhill. The boat to Monkey Island was rough and dangerous. One bloke fell from boat when docking. Could have ended badly. Got to our room and... More

Went here with monkey Island Cruise. The Cruise itself was greate, but the Island is quite boring. The Beach isnt very good and the water has trash floating in it. The Common rooms are nice though, with pool, tabletennis and a volleyball and foodball field on the beach. The staff is very friendly and the food is greate. The monkeys... More

This is a great place to stay if you want to do a Halong Bay day cruise, go kayaking and enjoy the beach, scenery and unique location. But not if you are after luxury or even high standard! We stayed for 3 nights with 3 kids and enjoyed it. But 2-3 nights is enough. The staff was great and the... More

We stayed there in a "Superior Bungalow" during our arranged 3d/2n Halong Bay trip. The bungalow was pretty nice (all other bungalows (more expensive) look better from the outside but we didn't see the inside). The bed was big & comfy and had a mosquito net. The aircondition and the fan worked well. The food was great (especially the breakfast... More
