From the second I booked Rose and Rex were both so helpful. I was arriving late night into Sapa and they arranged a taxi for me. The room was beautiful with an amazing balcony view. The bathroom was also very nice and clean. The breakfast was perfect and the trek organised by them was ideal!

I liked everything.

The property was beautiful. They have a lovely indoor and outdoor space with an amazing view of the paddy fields and village across the other side of the valley. The room was cozy and had a balcony that overlooked the similar view as communal spaces. Bathroom was stunning, beds were comfy and we had all the amenities we could have needed. The food was spectacular (particularly the spicy eggplant, would recommend to anyone). Both the owners were extremely friendly, helpful and accommodating. They let us borrow wellies for muddy treks, organised taxis, and gave recommendations. Lots of options on the included breakfast as well, with access to many other food options in the local village. A massive bonus was the amount of puppies around! If I ever come back to Sapa (which I intend to do) I’ll be staying at the Plum Eco House again!!

Smokey haze over the Village. Access was tricky.

Rose and Rex were wonderful hosts. We spent 2 very relaxing days in this quaint little village. Food was great with big portions. I would recommend 👌

The sound-proof is really bad - could hear every word the person was saying next door but I guess the material used to build the ecohouse is like this.

The view at the room balcony is superb. Hot water in the room is stable. Logistics from booking, transportation to tour arrangement was smooth with clear instruction. Breakfast and the food was amazing, we did not expect that at all! Location is perfect - not too remote (can be accessed by taxi easily) while we could enjoy the nature quietly.

Can’t think of anything except perhapes the insistent street vendors on the first day

We liked it all. Located in a Valley 25 minut drive from Sapa - quiet area. We enjoyed the ducks, chickens and waterbuffaloes near by. The owners were really great and always ready to help. The best food in the area - Booth vegetarian and non-vegetarian. Our treeking-guide, Mimi, was also very good and patient when needed for non experienced trekkers. The area has a few restaurant/cafees and local shops.

I cannot say enough good things about this place! The location was beautiful and quiet, the food was good and plentiful, and the rooms were nicely decorated with comfortable beds. But the best thing about this place are the hosts, Rose and Rex. Truly amazing people that are willing to do anything to help. I got extremely sick (something I ate before arriving in Sapa) and Rose came to the clinic with me and stayed with me for 3 hours and made sure I was ok. They were always willing to organize taxis, buses, activities, etc…They truly care and I can’t think of better hosts. Definitely stay here if you are coming to Ta Van!!

Staying at Plum Eco House was undoubtedly one of the highlights of our trip, especially for my kids. Location: Situated just a 25-minute ride from Sapa Center, Plum Eco House feels like you're in a different world compared to the very busy town of Sapa. The view on the way to this homestay is very scenic and breathtaking. The mountains and rice fields are so beautiful, especially when the rice had already grown and on a clear day. Reason for Choosing Homestay: The main reason we chose a homestay was for my kids' cultural immersion. The area surrounding Plum Eco House was inhabited by locals and had a few homestays around. Our local Hmong tour guide took us into their home, prepared meals for us, showed us how indigo batik fabrics are dyed and made, and shared many fascinating stories about their culture and life in Sapa. It was a truly enriching experience for the whole family. Rose and Rex also shared insights about their little community in the village, how they help and work with each other is so inspiring, which added another layer of appreciation for the local way of life. Room: The accommodations were fantastic. The room was very spacious, which was perfect for our family. We especially appreciated the special area upstairs for the kids. Having a separate toilet and shower was convenient, and the beds were large and cozy; we could even have one bed each for the four of us. Food and Drinks: The food at Plum Eco House was simply divine. It was evident that Rose cooked with love, as every dish tasted fresh and delicious. Even the peanuts were served warm! We had a few cocktails during our stay, and each one was expertly crafted and thoroughly enjoyed. Guests must try the Banana Crepe, Salmon Hot Pot, Lųròn ga chiên xù (crispy chicken breast meat), cā tím xì dâu cay (spicy eggplant), and nem thit (pork spring roll) (we ordered them twice because they're so delicious).

We had an amazing stay in Sa Pa, Rex and Rose were very helpful and friendly! They helped us by booking a trekking and taxis to the city and the Fansipan mountain. The room was very clean and confortable, the breakfast had good options and the restaurant was excellent, with great prices and fresh food, we certaily recommend this place. The location is 25 minutes far from the city center by car/taxi/motorbike, it was great to know the local community. The neighborhood has restaurants, stores, markets and cafes that you can walk to.

The beds are very hard(special for side sleeper). There could be some light on the way to the bungalow.

Very nice owners(Rex and Rose) that help with everything and that care a lot.Very good breakfast!!The Bungalows are well located ( a 100m from reception) and have everything you need(Fan for warm/heater for cold)

Absolutely nothing.

The heater is perfect for cold weather at night. Good food portions, multiple choices for free breakfast. The owners are very nice and helpful. My room has a superb view.

The weather but there's nothing our hosts could do about that!! :-)

We had a lovely stay at Plum Eco House, despite very thick fog which obscured the views. Rose and Rex were super friendly and welcoming. The bungalow was quiet and comfy with plenty of space and useful touches like a heated blanket (desperately needed on our stay), a kettle, umbrellas etc. We enjoyed watching the ducks from our window (as couldn't see further than a few metres!) and loved hanging out with Whiskey the dog. But the stand out for us was Rose's food which was the best we had on our whole trip in Vietnam. She loves cooking and it shows. Home-cooked food with creative touches. We didn't eat anywhere else! We especially enjoyed the family meal with them and their friends. We learned a lot about life in the mountains and the tribal minorities. Rose was very helpful in arranging transport from Sapa and booking a bus for us back to Hanoi Airport. Highly recommended!

Everything is good. They have warmer in the room and in blanket too. The view is superb must come again.. Food is nice. Receptionist staff Rose and the other guy is so helpful. They booked us taxi to town. If U want to run from a hectic life this is a good place to chilling down.

We had a great stay. Especially since the rooms have heated blankets and electric heaters, we had no problems with the temperature. We also got great tips on what to do from the owners.

Nice clean confortable room. Good breakfast and nice food at restaurant. The hostes had the skils to give us the necessary informations for our stay and they speak also very good english.

Finding the location of the property was tricky but I think many home stays are the same in this area. The bungalow may do well with some heating during the colder evenings but we had an electric blanket which did the trick!

The property was scenic and quaint. It felt cozy inside the lobby as they had a warm fire place! Rex was so accommodating and dried our wet shoes by the fire all night (after we had trekked for 17km in wet conditions). The bedroom was so cosy and we had a beautiful bungalow with everything we needed!

The scenery outside the room was beautiful. Everything was very clean and Rose was very helpful throughout the trip. She helped us booked the trekking, the sleeper bus and the taxi tours! She is really amazing and really helpful which was far beyond my imagination. She even personally fetch us to the massage place with her motorcycle as the weather was getting cold! Impressive service!
