This was an incredibly welcoming place to stay. They organized a jeep tour for us which was fabulous and included a boat trip in Trang An. The pool was a God send given the 36 degree heat. We had an early departure for Ha Long Bay, and they provided us a packed breakfast for the trip. Such a caring and friendly place to stay.

From the moment we stepped onto the property we were met with warmth and a very friendly attitude. Our rooms were immaculate and very well appointed. The bed was very comfortable and cosy. Our two rooms had everything we needed and included a table and chairs outside our room to enjoy the coolness of the evenings. The daily breakfast was excellent, offering fresh French bread and fruit with every menu option, as well as fruit juices, tea and very good coffee. The pool was a treat especially after exploring all day in the heat. We rented bikes from the site and happily went from place to place, comfortable and confidently. The family who own/ run the property are absolutely amazing and so kind. They helped us arrange our train transportation to the next stop on our tour of Vietnam and had a wonderful breakfast ready for us when we left early in the morning. We can't say enough about how absolutely amazing this family and their hotel are; definitely a highlight of our trip. We felt as if we were staying with friends or family and can't say enough about our stay at the Lys Homestay. Excellent, friendly, warm and inviting, comfortable and very well located. You need to stay here if you are looking for comfort, cleanliness and care. You won't be disappointed.

We had a lovely stay at Lys while exploring Tam Coc and the surrounding area. Ly and her family were so welcoming and helpful! The room was clean and spacious. The location was quiet, but you won’t miss out as it’s only a short walk to all of the restaurants and bars (also recommend Family Restaurant for food). Would stay again if we go back to Tam Coc :)

We really enjoyed our stay at Lys Homestay. So many positives - the owner genuinely wanted to help us, the rooms were large, clean and quiet with high quality furnishings, breakfasts were delicious and the location perfect, far enough from the noise, but just a few mins walk from everything. Only comment is that their rental bikes needed maintenance. Highly recommended!
