It is a couple of km outside the main area of Phong Nha, but otherwise great. And the owner offered competitive travel to and from the airport/train station and even to Paradise Cave. ##### Stephen Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Inri 8 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent hotel. lived up to the picture's expectations. I had a breathtaking view of the landscape. The staff was phenomenal and friendly. Mr. Ha was extremely helpful in assisting me with a tour company and which cave would suit me. Mr. Ha. and his wife and kids are warm and friendly. Thanks for looking out for the scooter and dropping off my USB charger at the bus stop. ##### Inri Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carrie 14 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was my groups favourite accommodation while in Vietnam! The rooms are spacious, well kept, and clean. The owners are what really makes this stay special. They went above and beyond, offering to arrange a taxi pickup at 3am and driving us around Phong Nha at a competitive rate. The bungalow is in a great location, it felt very safe and is walking distance from the main street. The food was also amazing, the included breakfast is delicious and we decided to have dinner at the bungalow both nights because it was so good! I would absolutely love to stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Phong Nha! ##### Carrie Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Vanessa 2 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A little older property, but clean and affordable and very helpful staff. A bit far from some things but they have bikes which made exploring easy.

Easy to coordinate a ride with the staff there or using grab or town is about 20 min walk away with stops to eat and watch the river along the way. They offer food for all meals and the breakfast was good, cooked to order :) I would stay here again. Plus everyone in town told me they know the owner and are good friends ##### Briana Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### christian 10 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff at Carambola Bungalow were amazing.

Room 6 overlooking the river was fantastic. The mountains are beautiful along the river. The staff here is great from the owners to all the staff. The language barrier was a bit of an issue even with google translate and we often didn’t get exactly what we ordered at meal time but everything was delicious. The owner was great to organize everything I needed from taxis to a private guide to the caves. I would return here in a heartbeat and highly recommended. ![Room ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/C2FDCDCE5BF0BDC4E33941C3A74CD0E5A56385961710572412711.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Bungalow from outdoor dining area](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/30BC26131D2382162E6D556D780452AA39BDF10A1710572411464.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Room](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8AC6AF26101E660A146D0F842E2BE26242030B391710572413408.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Shower ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2BEA67F39FF65D53E987459E09FE3952321B38061710572412507.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Mark Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Nenad 6 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice property,frendy stuff ##### Nenad Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matthew 14 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great location at the quieter end of town, good swimming, friendly service, nice secluded bungalows, free use of bicycles to get around, great advice on tours and what to see and do.

It looked much better than others in the area, its a bit out of town but thats the attraction and its easy to get a cab or ride into town. dining options around this area are a bit limited but the restaurant service on site is pretty good. If your here for the outdoors, this is a great choice. highly recommended. ##### Christine Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Korral 20 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Best service.

Perfect place to rest and regroup while traveling and after a long hike. Thank you, Ha! ##### Logan ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrea 15 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Beautiful property on the river. We stayed in the river facing bungalow. Woke up to a beautiful view everyday. There is not much around but they had all the necessities. One night we walked into town to have dinner, only about 1km away. We were able to rent a scooter directly from property which was very convenient. The owner organized everything for us, in terms of getting to property, tours and then a drive to airport. It was fantastic! They have a restaurant on site where we had dinner and breakfast. Food was excellent! ##### Andrea Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### michelle 16 Dec 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The owner of the property had a drunken party on the deck below our bungalow. It went on from 8pm until 2am. We did not sleep. There is hot water for about 1 minute. The bed sagged and was really old. This is a run down hostel. It shouldn’t be on Expedia. We left 2 nights early but paid for 4 nights ##### michelle Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Belford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Belford-Hotels.d6084837.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Luxury Hotels in Ripon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ripon-Hotels-Luxury-Hotel.0-0-d5667-tLuxuryHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Welbeck Street Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Attractive-1-Bedroom-With-Open-Plan-Kitchen-Oxford.h45215654.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Corona](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cartagena-Hotels-Isla-Corona.h113062621.Hotel-Information) > > [Oasis Lanz Beach Mate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Teguise-Hotels-Oasis-Lanz-Beach-Mate.h4479608.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near The Halls Wolverhampton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/The-Halls-Wolverhampton-Hotels.0-l6254430-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Whiskey Pete's Hotel & Casino](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Primm-Hotels-Whiskey-Petes-Hotel-Casino.h694253.Hotel-Information) > > [BH Business Hotel Group](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reynosa-Hotels-BH-Business-Hotel-Group.h39666358.Hotel-Information) > > [Pet-Friendly Hotels in West End](https://www.expedia.co.uk/West-End-London-Hotels-Pet-Friendly-Hotel.0-n6144914-0-tPetFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Beach Resorts & Hotels in Lamezia Terme](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lamezia-Terme-Hotels-Beach-Hotels.0-0-d6056441-tBeachHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Holiday Homes Swanland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Swanland-Private-Holiday-Homes.d3000714401-aaPrivateHolidayHomes.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels in Horden](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Horden-Hotels.d3000461588.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Gqeberha](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gqeberha-Hotels.d2824.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [hiltonhotels Hotels in Langkawi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Langkawi-Hotels-Hilton-Hotels.0-0-d6126505--bHiltonHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Whatley Manor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malmesbury-Hotels-Whatley-Manor.h3341.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Hounslow (LHR) to Malacca City (MKZ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/mkz/london-to-malacca-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Nadi (NAN) to Yasawa Island (YAS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/nan/yas/nadi-to-yasawa-island) > > [Flights from Aberdeen (ABZ) to Sa Khu (HKT)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/abz/hkt/aberdeen-to-phuket) ### Cars ### Packages > [Romford Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Romford.d6144833.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Cave Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cave.d6229021.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Salalah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salalah.dx6132442) > > [Visit Cleveland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cleveland.dx6141824) ---
