Adequate stay, some issues need attention

friendly staff spacious room secluded location taxi cost

The front desk staff were friendly. The room was spacious and clean. The pool was also very well maintained (I especially liked the clear water!).

The resort felt a little secluded. It was peaceful, but there was nowhere to buy or eat within walking distance. Getting to town required a taxi, costing between VND100k to 150k each way.
