I can't recommend Ba Be Jungle Houses enough (previously Mr Linh's). We booked only the day before. The team organised all of our travel for us - we got the 12:30pm "bus" from Hanoi to Ba Be Boat House. The bus was more of a luxury van - it was very comfortable and air conditioned. Arriving is serene and beautiful - very different from the crazy bustle of Hanoi. From there we were collected by their "boat man" who took us, by boat, to the homestay. Crossing the lake as the sun was setting was a special way to arrive! We'd initially booked a deluxe double however when we arrived I discovered that one of the king rooms were available and we upgraded. I am so glad we did. Waking up to views over the mountains was incredible. They'd asked us in advance what we'd like for dinner - there were 4 menus to choose from. The food was absolutely delicious - it tasted like home-cooking. The whole team made sure you were comfortable and having a good time. It was by far the best service we had in Vietnam. My partner went on the trek with one of the homestay's guides which he enjoyed a lot. I was supposed to attend, however I injured my elbow which made hiking difficult. I joined for the first part through the paddies and turned back when you needed to scramble up hill a little. We also went on a boat trip to an amazing bat cave. I would recommend that, too! We were only supposed to stay for two nights but we extended to 4. And we didn't want to leave. The team really, really looked after me - bringing ice for my injury and even driving me to the doctor's and pharmacist to help with translation to get medication. Special thanks to Nam for this. Ba Be itself is a hidden gem and not to be missed. People we met while travelling reported places like Sapa to be crowded with tourists. Ba Be is the opposite. It is totally untouched and untrodden.

The place has just been renovated. Everything is clean, the beds are very comfortable. The staff is very professional and helpful. I recommend this place.

a panorama ,beautiful nature, friendly host ,hospitable ,we will come back again

The location and price was great

The hotel owner was really lovely! Great location, good value, and the beds are AMAZING! SO soft! Cool little town to stop off on way to Cao Bang. 👍

The family who runs the homestay is super nice. The communication is not always easy but we try our best through a translation app. The food our host cooked for us was out of this world, probably some of the best food we had in Vietnam over a month of travelling there! Her husband took us on a day trip on the lake, we had the best time and the region is definitely worth a visit it's gorgeous. The common bathroom was clean and everyone in the homestay was respectful.

Very cozy and quiet place You can enjoy a pretty nice view with mountains and the lake

Excellent food! Friendly and helpful host. Location is lovely and immersive.

The staff was really nice and helpful and they have a really cute family ! We had a nice stay, the room was cute, we could have all the meals in extra if we wanted and had a view of the fields and a bit of the lake ! They also had boat options, and we stayed 3 nights instead of 2 ! For this cheap price, we recommend !
