Monthly Rentals in Phù Yên District

Staying at Van’s place is a very special experience. It is beautiful, remote, rustic and authentic. It is a bit challenging to get to, but well worth it. Perfectly off the beaten path. Van is a wonderful host, we enjoyed dinner with her and seeing her farm. We spent one night, getting there via motorcycle. The road up to the house is challenging to ride, so if you don’t have much experience, highly suggest walking.

Definitely an aesthetically pleasing lodging facility for cloud-hunters in Ta Xua! The sheer rawness and relative lack of development in the area makes it one of the very few places left in Vietnam where foreign tourists are more of an exception than the rule. The ecolodge itself is a nice spot to relax, unwind and observe nature in all its brilliancy. However, if you’re here for cloud-hunting, beware—the roads, especially the back-end of the Dinosaur Spine peak may make you crap your pants if you’ve no experience in mountain-biking. Highly recommend hiring motorbike taxis if that’s the case. Also, come prepared if you’re vegan/vegetarian; I was expecting little to no options at their restaurant and that’s indeed the case. The staff are friendly though, but only one of them speaks conversant English. As a rule, always carry cash in Vietnam; cards aren’t accepted here. Remember, this is remote Vietnam! Overall, if you have realistic expectations, this place won’t disappoint you.

We spent 3 days in two different villages: the village of Sung and the village of Da Bia. In both villages, we were greeted by host partners. In the village of Sung we were able to experience the culture of an ethnic minority from Vietnam in the heart of the hills. We reached the village of Da Bia on foot and via a private boat. We discovered a pretty little fishing village there. During these three days, we were hosted very well by our hosts and the inhabitants of the villages. We felt a real sincerity and their desire to communicate with us despite the language barrier. If you want to take a few days away from the hustle and bustle of tourist regions, this stay is for you. These villages are a real haven of peace. Small bonus: The food was excellent and carefully prepared. Probably one of our best memories of the trip.

This is one of our favorite places we’ve stayed in Vietnam. It is a beautiful location, the staff is so friendly. We arrived in rain-soaked clothes from riding motorcycles and they kindly dried our clothes. The food was perfect. The room very clean and welcoming. We would have stayed longer if we could!
