Wonderful stay, highly recommended. The owners are a very kind and welcoming family who helped us with everything, from tours to arranging our bus. Free bicycles are available for guests, and the location right by the river is beautiful, peaceful and you can also swim there. The internet was reliable for working online and video calls, with an amazing view. We liked it so much that we stayed longer than originally planned

We had such a lovely stay at Carambola Bungalow. The staff were incredibly kind, generous, and attentive from the moment we arrived. They always made sure we were comfortable and were so warm and welcoming throughout our stay. The food was absolutely delicious. Every meal felt fresh, homemade, and full of flavor. It was honestly one of the highlights of staying there. Our room was very comfortable, clean, and peaceful, which made it easy to fully relax. And the view of the river is just beautiful. Waking up and seeing the water and the surrounding nature was so calming. Overall, it’s a special place with wonderful people who really care about their guests. I would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

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

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!
