This was a charming rustic spot with a nice pool, lush surroundings, great staff and good restaurant. The rooms were dark and cool, our bathroom was outside which is charming — though I kept my eye open for mosquitos and anything else that might bite! We loved our morning boat tour of the floating market, with so many bonuses — coffee, breakfast, meeting a rice paper maker, seeing how a family lived on their boat, and we had a great guide. The old wooden boat was giving some trouble which added to the novelty of it all, as our driver just opened up the engine crate and fixed it on the fly — twice. We went for a bike ride, got slightly lost, and learned how kind the locals were, who spoke not a word of English. Well worth going out of the way to experience a side of Vietnam in the Mekong Delta we had not yet known, though my companions found it too hot in the south and this gorgeous place perhaps too rustic after our lux hotels.
