Traditional House in the beautiful Muong Hoa Valley of Sapa. Surrounded by mountains, rice fields and the river. Perfect for a real local experience. Come to enjoy the sound of the water stream, to appreciate the silence of the mountain and the peace of this place. We provide accommodation, traditional food and a local unforgettable experience. 5 minutes away from restaurants and 10 minutes away from the markets. 10 steps away from the river and right in the middle of the valley. Our property is not that big, but we have enough space to accommodate 20 people in total, raise our pigs, and own our garden.
We are a local family, living in this house for five generations, working in construction and rice fields, raising our children, and trying to give them the best we can. We are a real local family belonging to the Giay minority community. We have our language, cooking techniques and lifestyle. Unfortunately we have never learnt English, back in the day there where no money and time for it. That's why we are opening our house to travellers and people who want to discover our culture. We love fishing, weaving and cooking. You are more than welcome to join our daily hobbies and our family dinners. I love cooking, I prefer to use local food and traditional recipes that I can share with you if you like Vietnamese food. My husband loves fishing and walking along the river; he would be happy to show you our fishing techniques using the fishing net. We can show you how to weave, cook and appreciate our beautiful and peaceful land.
Quiet and chill area, the loudest noise you'll hear it's the sound of the river crossing our awesome valley. Very close from shops and restaurants. Our neighbours is our family, they also have their own homestay, that's why we like to have common meal, with our family and new friends.
