메콩 리버사이드 부티크 리조트 앤드 스파(Mekong Riverside Boutique Resort & Spa)

Mekong Riverside is a nice resort that’s located far away from town. In a sense, if you are planning to walk out, the nearest restaurant is 20min away, so be sure that you’re confident to use bikes. Other than that, their rooms are nice and cozy and they’ve got a beautiful view of the Mekong river. The manager is a friendly and helpful staff. Don’t expect to get free upgrades of your rooms tho, they don’t offer such flexibility even tho we were the only guests at that time along with another local group.

Great stay. Really helpful with good communication. We hope to stay here again in the future.

This was a real surprise. I was sent here by my travel agent, Nguyen Hoai at VivuTravel in Ha Noi. This is REALLY out in the countryside. The roads kept getting smaller and smaller until the car wouldn't fit any more and we had to shift over to a golf cart. Eventually, we worked our way through jungle trails until we came to this lovely pond with small individual huts on its banks. Each hut is a separate accommodation with its own deck. You can fish for fish or shrimp off your deck. Since this is Vietnam, you use rice for bait. I thought it was going to be a quiet evening alongside the water listening to the crickets until the karaoke started blasting me from somewhere off in the jungle. I don't know what it is about Viet Nam, but they seem to have these wonderful, peaceful, idyllic jungle or seaside settings that are perfect for reading, writing, or just sitting and enjoying the sunset. Then they destroy them by blasting them with loud, thumping drum synthesizers and off-key singing at volumes that could knock down a small building. Fortunately, the noise pollution didn't last too long and it didn't disrupt my sleep. I've had worse. Karaoke is the Japanese's revenge for losing World War II. It has been the bane of my travels throughout Southeast Asia. Anyway, it is a lovely location and definitely worth a visit. Bring ear plugs because you might get some bozo sharing his idea of thumping noise with you from several kilometres away. And it is HOT. Wow. Penguins are never going to migrate to the Mekong Delta. If your wife or girlfriend is always complaining about how cold it is, bring her here. No sane person could complain about being cold at the southern end of Vietnam. There is where Hell sends requests for more heat when it gets too cold down there. They have plenty to spare, believe me. But still worth a visit. You can get away from civilization and into the deep jungle. At night you can listen to the thumping drum synthesizers of the natives and pretend you are in a Tarzan movie. I have to commend VivuTravel and my travel agent, Hoai. I've been traveling in Southeast Asia for four months and every place I've been has been a unique experience. This is a relatively new facility but one which is worth a visit before it gets discovered and is swarming with tourists. That's the trouble with the world -- too many foreigners out there. See it now while you still can.

On first arrival, the resort looked amazing and very different to where we had already stayed within Vietnam. Unfortunately our outlook on this resort changed very quickly, the pathways to the huts were broken and most of the lights were smashed. The rooms were a reasonable size yet the beds were very hard and uncomfortable, also we were provided with dirty bed sheets and dressing gowns. We had allergens which was provided to the hotel before our stay and during, there were very limited options for both gluten free and vegan. The catering staff were very lovely. For our included breakfast, we were shocked to find the “fresh fruit” was covered in flies with a air con machine blowing air onto all the food… On a tour of the grounds around the hotel, we were shocked by how unkempt the are was, at the bird viewing stage the area Infront was all flattened and not a pleasant view. The area of plants infront of the hotel onto the lake was full of rubbish which would be easily cleared with a net (picture attached). There was litter all around the grounds. The showers were not working properly, going from extremely hot to cold as well as the pressure changing throughout the shower. We were provided with mosquito nets above the bed, unfortunately these had holes throughout the netting and also had a large centipede that fell out when bringing the net down. Before bed time we discovered two live cockroaches in the bedding, which then disappeared under the covers, we were unwilling to search under the mattress as we were having to sleep the night there and were worried about finding more bugs there. The hotel was advertised with a game area and gym, this was all broken and neglected, would be better off binned. The reason for the one star if for the restaurant staff, who were so pleasant throughout our stay. without these members of staff we would have rated a 0 if possible.

We stayed on night and it was amazing. The Bungalows over the water are perfect for watching the sunset and the boats pass by. Special thanks to Duy Who arranged for our transportation to and from Ho Chi Minh city as well as a wonderful tour of the floating market and cannel boat tour with a local guide

We were greeted with smiles in the carpark as soon as we arrived - great staff at the reception and we enjoyed chatting with the manager as well. Fresh fruit, grown on site, was a nice touch in our room. The room was good with a nice balcony over the lake. The bathroom was of a good size and light. The pool was the perfect temperature. We enjoyed borrowing the hotel bikes (free) to visit the nearby island and bike through town.

I visited with my family. It was a dream place near to big river. Every Villa is very well designed and well maintained. One can do fishing from his balcony above the river. Many fruits and vegetables, all organic. You can pick up some fruits from the trees. Really loved the place and enjoyed a lot with family. Team is very helpful and supportive.

Staff were super friendly and helpful. The hotel is just getting going again after Covid closures so they are working hard to get everything right. The over-water rooms are air conditioned and mozzie nets are provided if you prefer fresh air. The pool area was clean and well presented. The staff booked us a fabulous Mekong Delta tour on a boat which left directly from the hotel. In the restaurant I recommend staying away from the beef and enjoying the fish and chicken dishes. They had wine and cocktails on the menu. The cocktails I had were fab.

Das Hotel hat die besten Zeiten hinter sich. Lose Kabel im Pool. Service ist bemüht, jedoch komplett überfordert. Keine Englisch. Cocktails trinkbar, jedoch ungeniessbar wie das übrige Essen. Zimmer waren ok, aber keine 4 Sterne………………..
