Travel Tips

The hotel only has Vietnamese-speaking staff, so it’s helpful to save a translation app on your phone to avoid communication hiccups. Some extra amenities like towel and linen changes, laundry, and guided tours carry additional fees, so confirm pricing when booking. The best time to visit is between April and September, when temperatures are warm enough for swimming and beach days. If you’re traveling during the rainy season (October to December), the hotel’s pool has a rain cover, so you can still enjoy a dip even during light showers. Book parking in advance to secure a spot, as the hotel’s private lot fills up quickly during peak holiday weekends.
