It does take a bit of an effort to get here, when you get there you will be very happy. Mr Kimma and his staff are fantastic, it is very basic accommodation, but that is what you go there for. It is a very peaceful place to stay, just wonderful to watch life on the Mekong and quite cool at... More

Based on the great reviews and photos, we booked into this place. Only once we got there, we were informed of all the limitations/restrictions: - Hot water only from 8am to 5pm (forget about a quick shower before bed after a hot day - this is the Mekong and it gets hot...) - once you are in the cabin, you...

Rooms are basic but really nice and clean, there is a hammock and a seating area outside. The staff was really friendly and helpfull. We didn' t expect that there was nothing to do, so we were a bit unprepared for that. The only way to get your own food and water is to go by boat. the boat will... More

The houses are great and clean, the bed comes with a mosquitonet, and the shower is seperated from the toilet. The food is great and you can enjoy your diner at you own terrace. The downside is that there is not much to do on turtle island itself and at night the motorboats are really, really annoying. Overall it is... More

When my wife told me about the possibilty of staying on a floating house I was excited, but unprepared for the outcome. We were warmly greeted and shown the property by the owner. Every need was attended too. We were fed like royalty and waited on hand and foot. This as some of the best food I had while in... More

All the food served there on cottage terase were really exciting. Each menu was extensive and provided a delicious range of Vietnamese... More
