We had a wonderful time at this homestay. Our hosts were fantastic and made us feel right at home. The meals were very good and there was so much food! Scott even suggested some rainy weather activities which were fantastic! Check out the Sao So King Herbal Bath if you get the chance! We would definitely recommend this stay!

A home away from home in the country
The first good impression was when Scott picked us up at the bus station in the city of Ninh Bing and drove us through the countryside to his home in a small village about 20 km away. The homestay was clean and modern, and indeed the home of a multi-generational family that lived among their guests. The individual rooms had superb views of the idyllic neighborhood, and the common area was sheltered outdoors with tables for dining. Scott’s wife consistently prepared the best and most abundant meals we had in Vietnam, prepared from foods chosen freshly each day from the morning market. We dined with other guests from all over the world, making for good company at the homestay and on tours that Scott guided or planned out for us on bicycle. He provided a depth of insight that only a local resident could know. He is truly interested in giving his guests the fullest experience for the time they are there.

Paradise in Vietnam
My daughter wanted me to experience staying at a home stay as we were travelling through SEASIA and staying at hotels. How charming our experience was at Ninh Bin Homestay. Scott was warm and accommodating. From the moment we got picked up at the train station by him until we left he made sure everything was to our liking. The room we had was lovely with a view surrounding us of nature. The dinner we had was amazing shared with other travellers and new friends. I highly recommend staying at this homestay.

Great experience
Wow, we booked this accommodation on the morning of our stay, and failed to take into account how far it was from railway station (17kms). We arrived by train and required a taxi to get to Ninh Binh Family home stay. We arrived to a very welcoming oasis, welcomed with a tea in the beautiful courtyard of the home stay.
Our fellow guests were unanimously positive about their stay at the hotel, it all seemed too good to be true, but we were to discover it was our best stay in Vietnam. Scott and his family are incredibly helpful, and really love their small piece in paradise. Scott will assist you to make an individual plan to maximise your time, arranging visit to beautiful places with no tourists, and to see the life of the local people. The Ninh Binh province is magnificent and should be on everyone's itinerary.

Charming con artist
Home stay tucked away in a small quiet community away from the town of Ninh Binh. Nice to be away from tourist areas and stay in a local community. Be aware that the isolation leaves you dependent on the home stay owner and his family for transportation and meals if you bused to the area. Nothing is walking distance and you will be charged premium prices for meals and drinks including water as well as transportation and sight seeing options. The area is a tourist destination with professional packages available. Do your homework before you arrive.Tang suggested options for sight seeing which were adhoc, poorly planned and executed and put us in questionable situations that were not safe. Our cave trip had only our handheld flashlights to lead the way for 45 minutes into a dark hole no one knew about. When it was time to leave for Hanoi I paid for a luxury bus ride to Hanoi with a promise that I would be dropped off near my hotel. Then an hour before leaving I was told I would be dropped off within 3km of my hotel and could take a taxi the rest of the way. I was in fact summarily dropped off at the side of a busy road in rush hour traffic in south Hanoi 7km from my hotel in the Old Quarter without any information as to where I was or how to catch a taxi from that location.Traffic so thick and frenetic I could not cross the street. In the end it cost me more for the taxi to the hotel than the ride to Hanoi. Overall felt taken advantage of and duped. Lessons learned.

Perfect Experience
Thanh and his family were unbelievably welcoming. They knew all the best places to go around Ninh Binh, including the ones that were not nearly as crowded by other tourists. The dinners that they cooked at night were some of the best food I've had, truly not something to be missed. I recommend renting a motorbike for the day, as simply cruising around through the beautiful limestone mountains is awe inspiring and not something I'll soon forget. I can't thank Thanh enough for his hospitality, and I would absolutely recommend this homestay for anyone.

Oneerlijke praktijken
De eigenaar is vriendelijk, zijn vrouw daarentegen veel minder. Hij is heel behulpzaam, doch lichtte ons wel op door een veel hogere prijs te vragen voor het boeken van een treinticket dan de officiële prijs die door de spoorwegmaatschappij geafficheerd stond in het station toen we daar arriveerden.

Inoubliable
De l'accueil au départ, tout fut parfait. Au delà de la chambre et des locaux très propres et de bon goût, le propriétaire au travers des repas fournies très bons et très copieux nous a fait visiter sa région dans des endroits calmes et magnifiques durant les 3 jours que nous y avons passé. Un séjour inoubliable avec une famille très agréable loin des sentiers battus que nous recommandons fortement.
