Blue House HomeStay

The host was very kind and helpful when I came late and had problems with my bicycle.

The washroom had ants in the shower. Location a bit remote.

Friendly owners. I will stay again.

Cô chú chủ nhà dễ thương thân thiện, phòng ở sạch sẽ, khá yên bình khi ở đây. Mang cho mình cảm giác như ở nhà

Warm welcome, the son speaks some English. Large, airy house, secure motorbike parking. Generous host who offered to do a wash for free and gave us some drinking water. You can order food, but it's expensive (100k for dinner, 40k for breakfast). We brought our own food, we have a kettle.

I should have read the reviews carefully beforehand. The room is very bare (no kettle, no wardrobe, no chair, no tv, no rubbish bin) and the bathroom is not private! It's overpriced, we've had rooms with all of the above and netflix and a pool for less (paid 290k/night). But worst of all is the host pestering for Google reviews. It's insane! Started in the evening, continued early morning and when I had been bullied into leaving a review, which I will have to adjust, as of course it could not be honest under those circumstances, he knocked on our door while my teenage son was still sleeping so he would leave a separate review as well! Insane! This has been criticized many times, but is obviously not having an effect. I was really upset and it made me just want to leave and affected my whole day. I felt bullied and it was also a major invasion of my privacy to come to our room repeatedly. The irony is that they would have received a much better review if he had let us be. The rest of the family seem lovely.

Sehr herzliche Gastgeber. Wir haben dort sehr lecker abendgesessen und gefrühstückt! Große Empfehlung!

Fantastic hosts, they were so friendly and kind! There was a delicious dinner and breakfast at a very affordable price and I had a great chat with the host. The room was comfortable, clean and had everything I needed

A lovely family-run homestay. The hosts are incredibly kind and welcoming – they hosed down our dusty bicycles, and served up a delicious dinner, one of the best we’ve had in Vietnam. Well located between Dong Hoi and Dong Ha to make for two modest cycling days.

Beautiful home, very spacious and comfortable.

Great host family - they want you to have a wonderful stay not only with them but throughout your journey. The basic room was spacious, big comfortable bed (unlike some of the rock hard beds I encountered at other places) and the room had both AC and a fan. I also ordered breakfast for the following morning and received very nice sweet potato pancakes and fruit. As I couldn't finish it all, the home owner packaged it up for me and told me I had lunch as well - very sweet gesture. If I'm in the area again, I would definitely stay with them again - truly good people.

Lovely homestay ran by a Vietnamese couple in a small village. They provide a clean spacious room and bathroom with basic amenities - air con, fan, side table and private bathroom adjoining the room. No fridge, kettle or tea making facilities in the room. There is on site parking for mopeds and bicycles and they lock the gate to secure at night. It is in a location where there are limited accommodation options available for a number of miles and a perfect stopover for us cycle touring as the also offer dinner (100000 VND pp) and breakfast (40000 VND pp) which is great after a long ride. The food is of excellent quality, tasty and very generous in its portions - needed when you have cycled 130km to get here! We were very full afterwards. They also catered for my vegetarian diet. It is highly recommended for an authentic Vietnamese homestay experience and especially for cycle tourers as it has all the things you need. We would definitely come back.

Was all great.

Very nice family, good food !!

We stayed here while bicycling through Vietnam. It is a true Homestay with a wonderful family. The upstairs area has a large community area with a balcony. Room is comfortable and basic with a fan and air conditioner. WiFi is excellent. There are a few stores close by and a bakery. Winmart is about 1.5 miles. The family offers dinner (100K per person ) and breakfast (40,000 per person). It is a great place to stay on your way up/down the coast if you like to be in a small town and experience the kindness of a Vietnamese family. There is no sign outside but just look for the blue house and Google Maps has it in the correct location.

All good!

I loved the warm embrace to a weary traveler who was banged up from a motorbike accident It was better than a hospital ! It is a family home and it is huge like a mansion I paid $9 It was worth $190

Nothing

Home cooked meal

The hotel owner was so pleasant and helpful, cooked me an evening meal and breakfast. He did his best to help me and make sure I had everything I needed. Need more hotel owners like this man.

Nothing not to dislike.

Whole family vibe… really got to see how local, rural people live

Everything was A1

Great location for the distance I wanted to cycle. Great food. Very kind hosts but asking too much for reviews which makes you feel like the review is more important than you. Offered coffee with breakfast but then charged 20k for coffee on top of breakfast. Trick with hot water is to turn water on move handle to the left and when the pump kicks in turn back to the right to the desired temperature being careful to not initially be in the flow.

Our accommodation is a typical Vietnamese house with very high ceilings. The family is very friendly and responds promptly to all our questions. Our dinner was vegan and vegetarian, and it tasted fantastic. The pancakes in the morning were unusual, sweet but with vegetables. I would have preferred them with a variety of fruits and a little honey, and less fat. The accommodation is very poorly furnished. Only one bed! We had to put everything on the floor, and unfortunately, it wasn't very clean. There's potential for improvement: a mirror, a shelf for our things, and a bedside lamp, I'd suggest. The bathroom was large, and we didn't mind sharing it with another couple at all. Eventually, I even figured out the right setting for the shower faucet, so I could enjoy a wonderful hot shower after the long day of rain! The sink was also very greasy and hadn't seen a cleaning sponge in a long time. What a shame! Overall, though, it was totally fine, and the hosts are really lovely!

In a calm quarter, very easy to find and with a lot of space for vehicles. Close garden if you have bikes. Very nice people, you feel very welcome . Even if they don’t speak English they try to communicate and are lovely and funny. You can meet children and everybody is smiling and happy to see you. The dinner was perfect . delicious with plenty of things. The house is very big and clean. It used to be an house with a big family. The breakfast was simple but very good (local pancakes)

The furnitures in the room are a bit old . Could be better with new pillow, blanket etc Could be nice to be able to open the window.

Very nice family.big room. Clean. Good dinner.

A super friendly home stay! Clean, and comfortable! The host cooked the most incredible dinner and breakfast too!

We arrived here wet and dirty after cycling all day in the rain. When we asked if we could use their hose to wash our bikes, our host set up his pressure washer for us to clean our bikes while he washed our shoes! Mr Vinh was such a warm and welcoming host he made us feel very much at home. In the evening we ate together - a plentiful and delicious meal (see the photo). The rooms were spacious, the beds comfortable and the shower had plenty of hot water! If you’re travelling through and want to stay with a super friendly family you should definitely come and stay with Mr and Mrs Vinh!

Nothing

The family took care of me like a long-lost daughter, feeding me delicious vegetarian food for dinner and breakfast, sheltering my bicyclie from the rain, and helping me wash my bike the next day. The son who manages the homestay speaks good English and greeted me with the kindest smile. His parents joined me and the other guest for meals. Adorable kids tumbled around, happy and curious. The village has several markets and a bakery, which are conveninent for cyclists who need to stock up for the road For best results, communicate through WhatsApp.

The hot water in the shower is moody.

The family is the most sweetest ever!! So welcoming and kind! Made sure to accommodate my every wishes!

Bed was comfy for the night. More cushion than other beds I’ve slept on while riding through Vietnam. The home prepped meal was very good and one of my favorite meals in Vietnam. Very friendly family and accommodating.

A gentle and kind rural family. The food is very good, the 2nd floor has 2 large rooms. clean, food is delicious. Great if you're coming from Dong Hoi and staying overnight. It is a quiet rural village. recommend to everyone

Need stay more

Clean room, 2nd floor, husband and wife are very kind and cook very well. Great choice to stay 1 night and then go to Hue. Learn more culture in the countryside. Eating home-grown vegetables, eggs, and fish is great.

No

Convenient place to stay for a night, for me cycling between Dong Ha and Dong Hoi. Family was very open and fun to be with, including the older hosts and lovely children. Nice dinner (100.000 vnd) and breakfast (40.000 vnd) was offered.

The description said private bathroom but it was shared with another guest. This was no problem but the description wasn't accurate. Also I felt pressure to give good reviews which I was reminded of multiple times. I'd prefer to not feel this pressure as reviews should be honest.

It’s very genuine to see how a Vietnamese family lives in a regular neighborhood

The owner seems nice but he wasn’t there and the grandma seemed nice but didn’t speak any English (not that that matters) the rest didn’t make me feel very welcomed. Also was asked to go to my room at 19:30 wtf. It wasn’t bad but I definitely had better homestays during my trip in Vietnam.

I have been travelling in Vietnam for 3 weeks, and I can honestly say hand on heart that my stay at Blue House Ta Ha is one of the highlights of my tour. I turned up soaking wet after cycling through an all day storm. The host offered to wash my cycling kit (for a nominal contribution), which was a godsend. There was a secure area where I could park my bike. The homestay is situated in a village surrounded by rice fields. It is situated in a quiet area away from the main highway. I consider myself very fortunate to experience an evening at a Vietnamese family home, eat a tradition home-cooked dinner & breakfast (which was delicious) with the family, learn more about Vietnamese culture and even met 3 of the owners grandchildren. The host and his wife were kind, attentive and very hospitable.

Amazing family , nice stay and good dinner recommend this homestay to every one

Very nice family, good food.

No

Lovely and friendly host. Amazing dinner

If you want a real vietnamese experience this is the place to go. We had an amazing dinner and great conversations with the family. Lovely elderly couple :) This in my opinion is a true homestay.

Perfect place to stay for a night or two - the family are very welcoming and helpful.

This homestay was incredibly welcoming, with a beautiful and big space to stay. They made us dinner which was an incredible home cooked meal (one of my favorite meals while in Vietnam!!), and delicious pancakes for breakfast. The hosts were very kind, and showed us around their garden which they harvest from for meals. The town is small and very sweet and welcoming. Highly recommend!

This was the best homestay we stayed at our whole trip in Vietnam. We stopped here halfway between Phong Nha and Hue. The room was spacious and clean, with air con. Bathroom also clean and good hot water. The best part however was the family who welcomed us and another group as their own children. We got an amazing dinner and breakfast, and they sent us off with water for our journey. The family was so kind and I felt like I was with my own Vietnamese parents.

Nothing

Pure warmth and friendliness. Dinner and breakfast provided. Shower has hot water and a good rate of flow.

Extremely friendly hosts. They really tried to make us feel comfortable and at home. They gave us delicious local food and plenty of it. Had a good sleep as well! Don’t expect a hotel, the host knows he cannot compete with that, but everything came from a very kind and warm heart. Would visit again anytime!

Lovely family. Clean accommodation. Provided us with dinner, bed and breakfast at a very good price. It’s good to be able to support a local family business.

Lovely family...we missed dinner but breakfast was great...we were in motorcycles and did not have time to make our destination. Great place to stay as a diversion from ho chi Minh road. Gives you an insight into life in Vietnam away from the tourist stuff.

Nothing, we did have to share a bathroom but only one other room so it was not an issue for us.

Really new and modern, family member built the property 1 year ago. Nice spacious rooms and shower room, A/C and locking door on bedroom and toilet. Beds really comfortable for Vietnamese standards. The best thing about our stay was the family and the food they served us. I’m a picky eater but it was easily my favourite dinner and breakfast whilst in Vietnam. All food is locally sourced as the family have animals and plants in the garden.

Big, clean and confortable house with very friendly people. Quiet place.

Very nice Family. Good dinner with family.

Hospitality! Real vietnamese dinner with the family. They also own a little shop where you can buy drinks and sweets. Clean room and bed. Google translator needed ;)

Location? For me, as a bicycle traveler was not a problem, maybe for some it could be

Really friendly host, nice family and a big, clean house. We ate dinner with them (which was very tasty) and talked for a bit - felt like home - so I highly recommend staying with them. The area is very quiet but beautiful so maybe give it a try.

Thanks for Family Ông Vinh. Great experience
