King Bavi Resort

The grounds are lush, with everything from little patches of grass to big trees, and the layout feels carefully planned. Even when it rained hard for a bit, I still enjoyed my time there. There’s a clean pool, a fish pond, a natural well, a wine cellar, and several room styles, including wine oak jars, two-level suites, mushroom rooms, and standard rooms for different budgets. The staff were helpful, and it’s pet-friendly. Mr Vu is the big boss, and Mr Rich is the vice boss, or the “wise boss.” I liked the wise one best. He’s nine years old, very chatty in a funny way, speaks good English, and paints lovely pictures that aren’t for sale but are there for guests to enjoy at his exhibition. The big boss charged us 20 k each for the small bottles of water in the room, which I’d usually expect to be complimentary, so they should put up a note about the price. I also wish the lady owner would pick the ripe guavas and make some tasty jam for guests’ breakfast. Still, a lovely place.

The food was delicious, and the service was good. It’s also close to Hanoi.

A lovely spot for a family getaway.

I brought my third-grade students here for a field trip. They loved the water spray in the small pool, which was clean, and the food was delicious. The rooms were clean too, and the grounds were well kept. Staff were friendly and enthusiastic. I’ll recommend the place to other groups.
