Smoking friendly holiday rentals in Lao Cai

Lovely place, host was prompt in communication and noted our feedback.

Huyen’s home is far more than what we expected.. it definitely exceeded our expectations! EVERYTHING about the home is perfect. It is beautifully kept, so so so clean and tidy! It was spotless when we arrived. Mr River is absolutely amazing and so so helpful.. he cooked us so many delicious meals! The views are stunning and it is just so peaceful up there. Can not say enough good things about this stay. Only downfall is that we didn’t stay long enough! Thank you for having us Huyen & Mr River! We will be back one day ❤️

We loved staying in Mai’s beautiful guest house and sharing meals and conversations with her sister, Hien. Hien embodies benevolence and is a skilled chef and barista. Hien coordinated several taxis and cooked the best food we ate during our time in and around Sapa. Sadly, we didn’t get to meet Mai and her family in person but Mai was still very supportive coordinating a motorbike rental and checking in on us from afar. If we stayed longer, we would have loved to also get to know Sô (sp?), the Hmong maid, and hear her perspectives. We connected with other homestay guests during some of the shared meals and in passing. The home and garden are tranquil and inspiring (organic architecture). We loved eating fresh produce from the garden and being able to practice some spring roll assembly. Meow-Meow the kitten was hilarious as sidekick and Bo (sp?) dog is a chiller. There is a 4 km hike down the slope to Ta Van. Taxi to Ta Van~ 45 min, 450k VND depending on weather and road conditi

The place is peaceful and Tranquill. The host is very helpful. However the place is a bit walk from the main road. We didn't expect that. We went there during national day which is probably not the best time to visit Sapa. There's too much traffic the whole time. And we only had 3 days there. Anyways the home Stay is recommended.

A truly peaceful and beautiful place. The hosts have obviously taken great pains to provide for their guests’ comfort. The place was even better than I expected and very clean and comfortable. Trang is such a warm and helpful person that I’d coming back just to experience her hospitality. I had a wonderful stay and expect to be back soon.

Staying with Sue and her family was delightful and relaxing. Sue's family is very welcoming and kind; it is a true homestay - like staying with distant relatives. There are lots of activists on offer, otherwise you are left to your own devices. Breakfast and dinner are always delicious and plentiful - spring rolls were a highlight for me! Sue and Sung are very helpful in arranging activities and will take you on great private treks through the valley. I spent a day with Sue teaching me to create batik pieces, which I highly recommend. Otherwise, you can just relax: enjoy the view and the activity of the village. If you are planning a stay in Sapa, avoid the noise of Sapa town - a homestay with Sue is far, far more enjoyable and relaxing.

Beautiful place right in the middle of rice fields surrounded by mountains and waterfalls. Host was very kind and helpful with everything. Trekking trails within walking distance. The place is in a very unique and beautiful location but not the most accessible roads. However, that is part of what makes the location so special. The host is very helpful at providing directions and can arrange for transport of luggage and guests on request. Home cooked meals to order are amazing as well!! I highly recommend and I to go back one day.

Great stay, stunning views and peaceful space to stay. The breakfast is worth to pay and they have very good recommendations to visit. Special mention to Fade, who has been super helpful and made our stay better!

The location is perfect—nestled among the breathtaking mountains, offering stunning panoramic views right from the balcony. Waking up to the misty hills and fresh mountain air was an unforgettable experience. The room was spotless, cozy, and beautifully decorated with traditional touches that made it feel authentic yet modern Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)
