    Loved it here! So beautiful and easy to be social with the family dinner. Hoa can arrange hiking with local guides (if you can, ask for Zu, she was AMAZING. So informative and it was a highlight of my trip walking around with her for the day learning about her life and culture) and also gave me tips to hike to a waterfall alone. Dinner was great and the beds were comfy. With the mosquito net around your bed, you get a little more privacy as the beds are all open plan.

    The owners are everything you would hope when you check in to a home stay. Welcoming, warm, helpful and ready to meet all your needs. They don’t speak English but that just added to the experience for us. Location is also perfect so you are close to the main street without it bothering you at night.

    I really enjoyed my stay with Hoa! She was always attentive, helpful and tried to integrate everyone. She was also able to organise all the tours for you, such as trekking or the Hagiang Loop. The rooms were simple but clean and adequate for the price. The breakfast was delicious and especially the family dinners were unique! I would go back anytime.

    The accommodations themselves aren’t perfect BUT all of the positives (such as what the hostess offers) overshadows anything negative. Also, note that you will pay considerably less (nearly HALF) by booking direct or even through the hostel world site versus booking through this booking app. Wish I had realized that in advance.

    The hostess is the queen of all hosts and hostesses. She goes above and beyond to help you plan your stay. The location is good if trekking is what you’re looking to do, the food is outstanding, the services offered are over the top, and the surroundings are beautiful.

    It is a basic stay and can get very cold at night but as long as you’re prepared for that it’s lovely. The homestay is about a 30 minute drive from Sapa but you can get a taxi if you don’t drive yourself.

    Hoa and her family were wonderful hosts. The free breakfast was great and they invited me to join their family dinner. The views were wonderful from the homestay. Hoa’s little cat was also a delight.

    The homestay is in the most amazing area of Ta Van, surrounded by the beautiful mountains. Hoa was the best host you could ever ask for at a homestay, she was always available for help and also very friendly and hospitable and nice to chat to. She arranged transport for us as well as a trekking day with a local guide which was amazing. If you stay you have to try the family dinner which was absolutely delicious. Our room was spotless and very comfortable, and also had a mosquito net too. All the staff were very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. If we ever come back to Sa Pa we will definitely stay at Hoa’s again.

    The bed was a bit hard for my liking, but everything else was great.

    The location & the staff are unbeatable. Hoa & her team are incredibly hospitable. The meals were excellent accentuated by the fabulous company. It really felt like family dinner. We arrived in the dark & to wake up to that view was jaw dropping. Hoa organised a walking tour with 'Mous' (sp?) which was amazing too. Mous & her family are lovely as well.

    Only drawback was that the Homestay was 30 mins out of the town centre so it’s best to taxi travel with friends for affordable transport.

    Hoa is a superhero! She is very communicative, will help you with anything you need, from getting taxis to toilet roll, and has a heart of gold. Her home is beautiful and the rooms were great, she also has very very good food! The perfect Homestay!
