Pham Gia Boutique, Homestay and Villas
5 star experience, 3 star price
Phu Tinh is one of those little gems you come across now and again and wonder if it is wise to tell anyone in case prices go up. The owner, Thy (Tee), used to work for a 5 star resort so you’ll notice 5 star touches everywhere. Rooms are spacious with compact daybeds on the balconies, showers have a rain shower and ledges to sit on, the dining area overlooking the pool (with rail for those with disabilities) offers a range of meals. Great value for money.

War & Peace Homestay
A stay here is one you’ll never forget! Beautiful.
If you are looking for something completely different that will leave a lasting memory long after you have left Vietnam, then make sure you stay at War and Peace Homestay. This unique homestay gorgeously combines paraphernalia from the Vietnam war with modern décor and comfort. Each room is distinctively different and full of personal touches from the founders who have a great passion in history. We love War and Peace Homestay which could easily double as an ultra chic, mini museum in which you’ll find many items dating back to the 1970s.
