We were on a budget, all expenses covered Ha Long bay cruise with APT (Hanoi) and opted for 1 night on the boat / 1 night in the bungalows. To get here the boat meandered through some stunning scenery, the bicycle ride through the lush island was a nice intro to the area. Bungalows are also surrounded by steep Karsts,... More

I stayed here on my 2nd night of a Halong Bay trip. Whilst many of my group opted to stay in a hotel in Cat Ba town, I chose to stay here thinking it would be an authentic choice and a chance to chill out. The bungalows are set against a jungle in a small village. There is nothing to... More

Whisper of Nature is a true gem on Cat Ba and for us made the trip to Halong Bay worthwhile. If you want to get away from the usual tourist B.S. and dubious proprietors of Cat Ba Town, this is the place to go. The setting is amazing and secluded, the family that runs the Bungalows are incredibly friendly and... More

a perfect place to explore cat ba and surrounding areas. lovely owners, good food, beautiful cimple bungalows with really comfy beds. this place is paradise but probably not for too much longer as cat ba is quickly being developed. don't bother taking a tour round halong - go here, rent a kayak or take a boat round lan ha which...

Very nice people, great hiking-possibilities, good food. Good alternative to sleeping on a chartered boat. Don't expect a palace. Enjoy staying in basic, good bungalows and a nice family that does its best to accommodate you.

Even thou it might not be the easiest place to get to, it is so worth it in the end. The location is just awesome, in the middle of no where. So quiet, almost no honking motorbikes, what a relief. The bungalows are basic with AC, floor fan, mosquito nets (clean and no holes), big bed, shower (hot water) and... More

We have got at Whisper Nature Bungalows with APT travel (Hanoi) and stayed for 3 nights in their small and cozy wooden/concrete bungalows. To get there you've to take a boat from Cat Ba town that will take about 45 minutes. Them a motorbike will pick you up for a ride of 5 km. We liked the hospitality, the service... More

I've been to this Whisper Nature bungalow once, and I found it quite good. Although the bungalow is a little far from the beach but it is really a good choice for tourists who want to enjoy the tranquility of nature. Staying there, you will have the chance to stay away from noise or any disturbing things of a modern... More

I realise many tourists, even locals, lacking information abt it. If you ask Cat Ba inhabitants abt Whiper Nature bungalow, you receive an amazing sight. My suggestion is not to use the English noun "Whisper Nature" to ask bcz most local people do not know both English and the concept "Bungalow". Therefore, we should use the term "VIET HAI village"...

We booked and arrived on Cat Ba island, but dispite sending them many e-mails we had no reply as to how to get there. Most people in Vat Ba town had never heard of it and the only ones who had wanted $35 dollars to take you to the park entrance, plus the entry fee and then over a 10km... More
