What recent reviews say
The owners earn consistent praise for their warmth and willingness to go beyond bookings, even buying extra breakfast when guests seemed hungry. Guests return repeatedly for the calm setting, spacious grounds overlooking rice fields, functioning pool, and clean rooms suited to family gatherings and group outings.
One recent reviewer noted cleanliness gaps and water problems, though another apologist pointed out that critic was not present. The homestay handles last-minute bookings well and staff readily share local knowledge. Most find it a relaxing retreat at reasonable rates.
