The food in fine dining is over priced and not good. There are still scales on the fish.

Quiet and peaceful. Staffs are friendly and attentive. Breakfast are nice. Cocktails worth the price. Sunset on the private beach is breathtaking.

While we were there it was VERY hot. Our air conditioner worked perfectly. It would have been nice if there was a bar or eating space that was air conditioned. Maybe it was difficult because we are not used to the heat… it was snowing at home.

We loved everything! Cute walkways to our room. Lovely yoga space, gym and spa. The food was amazing! We actually took a ride down to the JW Marriot to have dinner. Everyone of our four dinners at La Veranda were better than the seafood platter we had at the Marriot. The people here work so hard and are so kind. It was a pleasure to stay here.

Hotel Beach area could be better but there is a free daily shuttle bus to white sandy beaches on the east coast 20mins away.

Fabulous old colonial building set in well kept gardens. Fabulous staff, so friendly and nicely attentive to your every needs. Food is out of this World. Chef Sin is exceptional….so so friendly and just a happy person.

I had a very wonderful time. I was hoping to relax and be in beautiful surroundings and that was exactly what I got. The best parts were the morning yoga, the lovely breakfasts, sitting on the veranda any time of day or evening. I enjoyed the facial very much, the rum tasting, the Vietnamese buffet. All the food and drinks I had were great - all very reasonably priced. The whole thing was worth every penny for me. It was a lovely experience and I didn't leave the hotel grounds for 5 days. I will remember it very fondly and thank the staff very much for their help (especially with the phone charger) and kindnesses.

The staff could have made suggestions of attractions to visit outside the hotel/resort

The breakfast selection was very good. The beach was very good and safe for swimming. The special seafood selection dinner on Saturday night was excellent. The pool was very relaxing

There is nothing to dislike about the veranda it's the best hotel on the island.

It's set in such beautiful peaceful grounds, that are like walking through a botanical garden everyday. The rooms are stylish, romantic and spacious all rolled into one, whilst also being private and quiet.

What a beautiful stay! We loved the French colonial style of the hotel. The room was super comfy. The beach and sun loungers were well catered for with more than enough space (unlike the surrounding hotels). Food was great. The best thing about La Veranda is undoubtedly the friendly, genuine and helpful staff. Extra special shout out to Sam, who was so incredibly proactive and attentive - he is a gem! The Vietnamese food experience was absolutely delicious! Madame Catherine's spirit was certainly felt! Will be back!

The resort was great! Staff were so service minded and friendly. Beautiful resort perfectly located by the nice beach.

The hotel surroundings though have changed quite a bit since 2010. A busy town is just a step away. Noisy and crowded bars on both sides of La Veranda beach, regular smoke clouds from garbage being burnt by locals somewhere in the city.

People and service orientation make this place exceptional, the team is eager to make your time at the resort simply wonderful and they succeed most of the times. We loved the beach - smooth sea entrance, super clean, well attended, spacious & picturesque; the design and relaxed & elegant air of the property; spa and yoga classes - thank you Thu!; great cocktails at Le Bar; and the eloquent cuisine of the Peppertree restaurant. We visited La Veranda second time after 13 years and were happy to find out that all good things we cherished from our first stay are still upheld. All in all, big warm thank you to Ms Van Cu and her amazing team for taking such good care of us!
