Enjoyed several peaceful nights in a delightful bungalow with private deck over looking the pool, river and karsts. Drinks watching the sunset will remain a highlight of our time in Laos. Staff friendly and helpful and happy to see Vang Vieng was not the party capital we heard it might be. Do not pass up the chance to see this... More

This place is a pretty decent choice for Vang Vieng. It's a little more pricey ($35/night) than many of the other places in town, which was good because it kept the drunk backpackers away. The view of the river is beautiful. When we ate breakfast at the restaurant the sun was still coming up and it was incredible. The rooms... More

This little gem was a quiet oasis located near the main area. i stayed in a river view bungalow with a lovely bathroom and view. Fresh baguettes with coffee and homemade pineapple jam every morning made my day. The reception staff are very friendly and the breakfast area which included a second-storey terrace overlooking the mountains and river made me... More

Great little hotel, very rustic and quiet. Spectacular views of the limestone kasts. Food was nice. No tv was a blessing. Room has opening glass doors on 2 sides so it feels like you outdoors. Only complaint i couldnt get the hot water to run. It is clean and rustic.

The hotel is located on the riverside with the mountains as a backdrop Very picturesque. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was served by the riverside. The rooms were very quaint and walls are made with bamboo and cane very nice.

We chose to stay a second time at Ban Sabai Bungalows after enjoying a few days there last August. We stayed in the same bungalow as previously. The view is just suberb and the breakfast still delightful. The staff are always smiling and friendly. We saw no rodents and enjoyed the noise of the Tokay gekkos and frogs in the... More

I had a terrible experience here, the room was plague by rodents which came into the room from the gaping holes in the floor! At night I could hear the rodents running around and eating my belongings, I never had any food in the room as advised but still had the unwelcome visitors! I was very dissappointed with the room...

Dear Trace, I am truly sorry about the bad experience you had at Ban Sabai. I believe I have replied to your partner, who already posted a review (Pushtar). We have taken a series of measures to fight against rodents in an ecological way. Our bungalows are traditional and made of bamboo set in a lush garden, surrounded by all... More

We stayed in a bungalow and it was great. We were right by the river and had a good view. No rodents. No noise. Clean. Locking doors. Security box. Great breakfast served by the river. Pool is small, but fine for cooling off. The bungalow was roomy. Wifi connection was good - no slower than anyplace else in SE Asia.... More

Great experience at one of Vang Vieng's best places to stay. The river views are sublime with the cliffs in the background, and lanterns lit in the evening in the mature garden. Staff are very helpful and attentive without being obsequious and the restaurant looking out over the water is the perfect spot for lunch or an evening sundowner. My... More

Stayed in a Bungalow facing the Nam Song River Make sure you enjoy the sunset by the balcony/riverside. Breakfast was good too. Location's good, about 10mins walk from the main street. Reasonable price. Wifi connection was good. Pool is a little bit too small. Apparently acoustics between rooms are not that good, didn't sleep well.
