"This was an incredible stay. The location, the breakfast oh that pool, so refreshing after long walks. You can access the entire area by foot. I stayed a week. Never rented a scooter and walked to Ninh binh twice. Freedom was such a relaxing wonderful experience and the little lady who literally sweeps, cleans and smiles all day. Made my day as the world goes mad. My mind was free. Thank you, it's not goodbye, just see you down the trail. 😍"

We are certainly going to come back to this spot the next time we are in Ninh Binh. The place is very new and everything seems chosen with care. Beds were very comfy and the rooms/cabins were very quite. The owners are super nice and very attentive. They are very handy at using Google translate to get past any language barrier.
