We went to Vietnam after Sri Lanka with caution, and even read the reviews. What is scary at first is the traffic: a sea of ​ ​ bikers following their own rules and a transfer bus driving to the hotel at an average speed of 29 km/h and that's 7 hours. We got to the hotel in the dark, hungry and exhausted, even where we arrived at first did not pay attention. The porter tried to take my backpack straight from the bus. The poor boy (although he may be 30-40 years old) was able to pick up my backpack only at the reception. Our group was small and we were seated quickly. I observed the settlement of the Chinese - they were still given cool green tea. The porter took us to our room. He showed everything, and calmly left for himself - here they surprised me. And when we did give him a tip, he was very surprised - either a terrific actor or...
We rested, it was raining, we didn’t want to go anywhere - but oh, how we wanted to eat. And we went to a restaurant from the hotel. And they were the most satisfied of our entire group: chic service, incredibly tasty and hearty cream soup and pizza with tuna. And at the end of a terrible day with a 10 hour flight and a 7 hour transfer - we were finally full and satisfied. But these were only flowers.
Morning 5.30. I'm going for a run with thoughts that I'm going to explore the territory. I leave the room and... there was no limit to the squeals - the sea is a few steps away !!!!!!!! ! Having fulfilled the plan - after running the territory of the hotel for 10-15 minutes, I went to run along the beach in sneakers. And this is a bad business. Since then I have only run barefoot.

Breakfast was different, not in terms of variety, but different. When more vacationers came, and this happened on weekends, the locals also rested, there were a lot of dishes. But there are always cucumbers, tomatoes, a few salads, greens, pho soup or some other, I didn’t understand. Tea, coffee, milk, water, juices were natural - even with foam, fruits, pastries, for those who wish, scrambled eggs and toasts.
We dined at the hotel restaurant several times. The service is always top notch and everything is delicious. And they gave us a bonus lunch, just as great.
The staff speaks English, but they also understand pointing gestures. Although their English is so Vietnamese - melodious and blurry.
Cleaning was daily - the floor washed with something from mosquitoes, clean towels, fresh linen, new shampoo, gel, toothbrushes, comb and cap! The hat that made me smile the most, although my sister found it very useful. True, cleaning can come at any time, and now they only speak Vietnamese! If you didn’t have time to put up a sign, come back later - express all requests in Vietnamese or put up - since they came and you didn’t warn them in advance, they will remove it. We somehow got used to the fact that they save us somewhere after dinner, and returning after breakfast did not expect to meet the cleaners, but here's a surprise. I had to dress like this.
Wi-fi always catches at the reception, and in good weather looks into the rooms. If the rain is torrential only the reception.
And the lizards came to us. We went to the reception - the girls probably thought that I was showing off. And when they realized that we were afraid that they would bite us, they friendly explained that they were safe and everywhere, even at the reception. Maybe then they laughed at us from the bottom of their hearts, but not during work. We personally laughed.
The beach, as mentioned, is close. And since it's out of season the sunbeds were free. There is one very terrible fungus - it is low even for the Vietnamese, we tested its strength with our heads - it hurts. All the rest are normal, we did not come across other low ones.
The pool is great and the water is always warm. I only swam there in the morning. Officially you can swim from 6 am to 10 pm. Jacuzzis are turned on by request: there is an employee near the pool, if you show a little curiosity, the employee will turn on the jacuzzi for you.

And the most magical thing about the hotel is rocking chairs! This is brilliant! I want one like this for my home. Not ordinary rocking chairs - they work by lifting and lowering the legs!
In general, we really liked the hotel! Just like Vietnam!
