Excellent hotel, nothing to complain about, very good breakfasts, and most importantly, the Vietnamese, good-natured, helpful people. The only thing that spoiled the rest was the attitude of the meeting side of the "Biblio-Globus" (guide Anton) - he was only interested in one thing - to get more people on excursions, and when we needed a doctor, Anton did not even tell us on the phone where to find a doctor, butwhen we met by chance, he said that he did not understand what we asked him about.

Territory: clean, lots of greenery. It is immediately clear that the design was approached with a soul. Bungalow: everything is not new, but clean. It looks like they do repairs from time to time. Rooms: clean. The air conditioner was working properly, but the lights were not all on. Plumbing is old. Cleaned constantly, however, in the room more often just swept.

Territory: clean, lots of greenery. It is immediately clear that the design was approached with a soul. Bungalow: everything is not new, but clean. It looks like they do repairs from time to time. Rooms: clean. The air conditioner was working properly, but the lights were not all on. Plumbing is old. Cleaned constantly, however, in the room more often just swept. Too bad there is no kettle. Safe is free. Shower gel, shampoo, soap, hair dryer. Towels were changed every day. We didn’t really find fault with the room - we only spent the night there, and for this everything was in the tolerance. WiFi catches everywhere, even on the beach. Swimming pool: small but clean. During the day the water got very hot. Beach: its own, just excellent, the sand is leveled in the morning. Beds, mattresses. The entrance to the sea is gentle. Meals: quite tolerable, pancakes with bananas were excellent. The tables could have been cleaned better. Ants and birds could run along them.

vietnam yum yum Since the majority of tourists in Vietnam are Russians, the Vietnamese, respectively, have joined the primitive and almost childish Russian common rooms. One of them is “yum-yum”, which means “eat” in the broadest sense of the word. Even the Dutch and the Germans use the simple phrase “yum-yum” there, sincerely considering it to be a purely Vietnamese word.

vietnam yum yum
Since the majority of tourists in Vietnam are Russians, the Vietnamese, respectively, have joined the primitive and almost childish Russian common rooms. One of them is “yum-yum”, which means “eat” in the broadest sense of the word. Even the Dutch and the Germans use the simple phrase “yum-yum” there, sincerely considering it to be a purely Vietnamese word. True, the local aborigines have more in stock: “come on” (with a playful intonation), “nope” (deliberately drawling expression of disagreement), “good”, “beautiful”, “neither you nor me” (the main argument when bargaining) etc. In general, the Vietnamese are comfortable, friendly, calm in a Buddhist way and, according to our stereotypes, are dumb. Therefore, if you are bargaining, do not try to explain that you want to take not one product at 20 thousand dong apiece (for example), but ten at once, but 15 thousand for each.
In the Vietnamese case, you literally need to take all the counted ten items in your hand, clearly express a desire to buy them in bulk and immediately, then show one of them, say the amount per unit, then say the total amount again. And then there will be at least some chance that your desire to get a wholesale discount will be adequately perceived.
But I'll start over. We are a company and we always travel with a concession of up to twenty people. Vietnam was a controversial destination, everyone hesitated and took risks. But, my God, how wrong we were!
Part one. Road
Since we are from Sumy, and we already (or still) don’t have an airport, it’s five hours to Boryspil by minibus, and another five hours to transit Dubai by Ukrainian airlines Mau. They fed, watered, somehow served - modestly, not satisfying, but thanks for that. A six-hour connection, and from Dubai it is already 6 hours by Emirates Airlines to Ho Chi Minh City.
Emirates charm - Boeing "777", blankets, pillows, video recorders under the "belly" and in the cockpit, screens in chairs, films (including in Russian), music, games. And also hot wipes for hands, two meals a day, metal cutlery (this is on board the plane! ), cold, hot and intoxicating drinks ...They took off easily, landed softly - baldness! In Ho Chi Minh City, a transfer for our group - this was taken care of back in Sumy with the help of the sending company of the Argo company, which is part of the Last Last minute Shops network - thank you! A Vietnamese woman with a transfer name Asya, who speaks decent Russian, happily embraced Ukrainian tourists who were stunned by the road and tried to entertain us somehow for another 5.5 hours. Thanks, Asya! On the way, they tried to look at something, but they got the strongest impression from the dragon fruit plantations, where each bush is illuminated by a powerful lamp (so that the crop is reusable).
And fuli to us - the rivers in Vietnam are powerful, and Soviet specialists built power plants. They also smeared chemical plants, a military base in Cam Ranh, and much more. Despite the stupid Vietnamese night, on the way we stopped at a cafe where we tried Pho soup for the first time. And this, I’ll tell you, is just a Vietnamese sabotage, because you get so hooked on Pho soup that a real breakdown begins in your homeland due to pho addiction. In the Bon Bien Resort hotel, successfully located exactly in the middle of the Mui Ne resort area near the city of Phan Thiet, it was not us who arrived, but zombies, therefore, settling, poorly understanding who had a better room and who did not. The next day reconciled, showing that the suites are the same - at least on the second, even on the first floor. True, this next day did not come the next day, but the day after tomorrow ...
We start to rest
Having barely unloaded our suitcases, we immediately plunged into the pool to “unload the spine” (everything according to science - we have a medical company).
Naturally, “we took a sip for arrival”, and from morning until afternoon, our bodies, lifeless from lack of sleep, randomly scattered on beach chairs, were cheerfully filmed by more disciplined tourists on their cameras. The pool, by the way, is warm, heated around the clock around the perimeter, however, the jacuzzis are turned on with some kind of tricky button, and the light around the pool too - but you just need to peep how the Vietnamese from the staff does it and then it will go by itself. The charm of breakfast on the first day was not appreciated, but the breakfast itself is wonderful (more on that below). In addition, flip flops protected from the sun (up to cotton respirators and gloves) endlessly ply along the beach with a variety of fruits, their fellow countrymen with seafood, fellow countrymen with boiled tropical corn - awesomely tasty (you can bargain for 10.000 dong) and with pearls (about him too below). Immediately about the price equivalents.
Do not be afraid of scarecrows about confusion with money, flashing zeros before your eyes and constantly striving to deceive the Vietnamese. Vietnamese dongs are convenient, it is better to buy them in Mui Ne, the rate ranges from 20.800 to 21.000 dongs per dollar. Changers are everywhere. All Mui Ne or all Mui Ne (we inclined it somehow ruthlessly and to the word) are shops, restaurants, travel agencies and massage parlors in one bank. Vietnamese shopping is contagious and exhausting - every evening (except for the days of excursions, which are also discussed below), we rushed along Mui Ne and rowed until swelling in the legs: bamboo shirts, cotton and coconut suits, silk robes and sundresses, Adidas tracksuits, sneakers, ski sets and down jackets, magnets with Ho Chi Minh City, souvenir plates, crocodile bags and wallets, Vietnamese rice hats-pyramids "nona" ...Tip: in almost all Mui Ne shops, a colorful book "Guide to Mui Ne" in Russian is distributed free of charge.
Very nice edition and even for souvenirs quite worthy. Inside the phone numbers and addresses of stores, as well as coupons with discounts. By the way, for communication, buy a card in Mui Ne, activate it there with the help of the seller, replenish your account with him if you pronounce all the money. In a modest way, 7 dollars was enough for me for all 12 days.
Tours
One of the excursions was a gift for us from the sending company - Ho Chi Minh City on the last day before departure. The rest decided to take on the spot and did the right thing. There are many of us, so we always received a discount. Based on the reviews on the internet, we chose "Smile" - a travel agency and a restaurant of the same name are located about a hundred meters to the right of the hotel across the road.
The Russian-speaking manager Larisa would have received the highest score from us, if not for the last "chord" - when we decided to use the advertised right to the fourth free tour, while choosing the cheapest one, Larisa turned off the phone and did not go to work. Well done, - the company saved money, but we will not fail to write on the Internet that travel agencies, like restaurants, are dofiga in Mui Ne and their services are approximately the same. Well, we went by jeeps to the dunes and lotus lake - cool, to the fairy stream - just fun, to Nha Trang with the entertainment island Winpearl and Dalat - super-super-super, a crocodile farm and thermal baths with mud, waterfalls and elephant riding and ostriches - in the course of life.
About breakfast. And in general, about the hotel
Do you know what Vietnamese cuisine is? We didn't know either, but this is one of the best cuisines in the world. Without exaggeration.
In our restaurant: Pho soup, pancakes with bananas, scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs, sauces, rolls, chicken, dumplings, rolls, noodles, rice, salads, desserts, sausages, bacon, vegetables, fruits, juices, tea, coffee with milk, toasts etc. And outside - shark, ostrich, crocodile, barakudyatina - not so hard, I will continue without transformations. They ate scallops, piranha, venison, lobsters, shrimps, crabs, oysters, turtles, cobras, clams, mussels, eels, moray eels (it was still necessary to rewrite all of them). Everything was prepared in such a way that it was just wow. But I always wanted to return to the hotel, where the territory is chamber, like a home imperial theater, and ceramic piglets “live” on every lawn. Although everything was simple in the rooms - air conditioning, bed, balconies, furniture, refrigerator, mirror and the same gecko on the ceiling. When he walked from one corner to another, we died with laughter - his gait is vulgar.
You can get a hair dryer at the reception, ask for hot water there - they will bring it to your room. Tipping is not needed, and in general the staff is unobtrusively-inconspicuous. The hotel's restaurant overlooks the Pacific Ocean, or rather one of its bays, geographically referred to as the South China Sea, and in Vietnam as the East Sea. Waves, of course, but acceptable for swimming. The local entourage - kiters - a mixture of surfers with paratroopers and fishermen on boats-basins of an absolutely round shape. This type of water transport simply blew the minds of our homegrown aquadynamics specialists. According to Vietnamese statistics, one of the most common causes of death for tourists is the fall of a coconut on the head. In our hotel, mortality was reduced to zero, because constantly ripening coconuts were forcibly removed from palm trees.
buddha good god
We were convinced that the Buddha is a good God back in Sri Lanka, each time climbing the next mountain to the next pagoda as for the last time ...The Vietnamese Buddha turned out to be much kinder than the Sri Lankan one, and if the shrine was a little high, then either a cable car or highway. Buddha is predictable - he is either lying, or sitting, or in nirvana. That is to say, no one interferes with life. The Vietnamese behave in approximately the same way - no conventions with prohibitions prevent foreigners from relaxing. The funniest car we saw in Viet is a hearse with golden dragons, lanterns, flags and benches for the mourners. To the best of all worlds - fun and without sorrow, with faith in further rebirths.
Birthday Cobra
During our stay in Vietnam, we had two internal concession events. One of them, March 8, is just an excuse and nothing more.
But the second is the birthday of one of ours. And not just DR, but a half-century anniversary! In addition to a cake from the hotel, two bottles of Dalat wine from the host, the hero of the day received our gift - the ritual of killing a cobra and then eating it. I will not elaborate on the chilling topic, but the hero of the day still had to eat the beating heart of a barely killed cobra - the ritual does not tolerate deviations. Oh, damn it, at least once in my life and I have such a birthday with such an exotic! All in all, I still hope. Moreover, the DR, and everything that happened to us in Vietnam, was captured not only on cameras, iPads and other gadgets. One of our co-tourists, a charming doctor, generally combined her vacation with professional photography of our group and even training us under the program of the Vietnam Paralympic team in synchronized swimming in open and closed waters.
We are not small guys, and judging by the witnesses of the training, the spectacle was not for the faint of heart
But in Vietnam there will always be reasons for delight, to look at everything there - not to reconsider, to be surprised - not to be overwhelmed, so if it were not for the range of the direction, we would go there more than once. And so, the next, it seems, will be West Africa, such as Morocco-Mauritania, and about the results of her visit after arriving "from there. " Therefore, I finish and leave the phone for clarification. If I'm not busy, I'll be happy to answer all your clarifying questions. Happy trips to you, dear consumers of new experiences!

Vietnam, Phan Thiet, Bon Bien Hotel 3* April 2012! Vietnam is an interesting country, cute little, smiling people chirping like birds! The attitude towards tourists is good! The weather is pleasant, there is no suffocating humidity.

Salt and pepper or rest in Mui Ne.

Salt and pepper or rest in Mui Ne. (a good thing will not be called a Mui Ne, a joke))))
I must say right away that I am writing for those who want to travel with small children and not very healthy people. Healthy, strong and beautiful youth can read the section of the cafe.
We thought for a long time where to go, because we were traveling with the whole family with a child of 4.5 years. Food was our number one choice. Everyone has health problems. Since my husband and I have been going to Thailand for 12 years, and the children were there 1 time, we decided to go to Vietnam. Read everything and a lot. I asked questions on turpravda, but for some reason no one answered! I should have thought about it right away !! ! but... everything is in order. There is now a direct plane flying from Kyiv to Ho Chi Minh. Tiring, but sat down, ate, slept and flew. BUT... If there is a financial opportunity, then it is better not to fly with an aerosuit, the food is bad (an instant rash went on cucumbers), the flight attendants practically do not pay attention to passengers at all. We flew normally - thanks to the pilots. Of the entire plane, only Ukrainians need to apply for a visa. The visa was issued for about an hour and a half (50 people were in line), the Vietnamese work very slowly. received the luggage, met the guide from the company - AMEGA. He speaks Russian well. We put in a minibus and drove to Fonthiet-Muine. I really liked the climate, there is no humidity, although it is hot, but if there is a breeze, it is wonderful! Mui Ne is a Russian resort. There are very few foreigners, mostly north, Siberia, Moscow and St. Petersburg.
The hotel was settled quickly. Passports were not taken. The guide was waiting for us to settle. We drove from the airport to the hotel -6 hours. (We were ready for this according to reviews). Hotel for a normal C grade, food for 2+. But you can eat. We were not satisfied with the food. Nothing is normal for kids. Everything with pepper - more or less, but there is. Our child does not eat eggs and rice. Breakfast: - Vietnamese soup - many people like it, but those who do not like spices and peppers will not do. I liked it, with cilantro, my husband did not. The usual, allegedly European soup was given 2-3 times a week, and for some reason it was sweet and smelled very parsley, hard fruit 4. fruits: watermelon, dragon fruit, papaya, bananas, pineapple. Green tea, black tea, coffee, juices not fresh - orange (more like a yuppie) - melon, tomato - fresh, but highly diluted, food: - rice, vermicelli, chicken with bones, with pepper, pork with vegetables and pepper, bad sausages and greasy bacon, scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs, banana pancakes (everything is fried on margarine), cucumber, tomato, cheese, ham, butter, pate and something else. No milk porridge, let alone seafood. A couple of times a dish ended - they just remove the bowls and push the rest apart. Replenishment (especially if it's potatoes) - no. Sandwiches with cheese and ham with cucumbers were thrust into the child. At the end of the rest, the child ate half an omelette! STARVED. Several times there were yogurts. Sweet - from rice vermicelli or biscuits. Fortunately, the child loves watermelons. yogurt we bought in a shop opposite the hotel-the crossroads is called. At the weekend - food under the Vietnamese - they come a lot for the weekend. There are normal ones, but mostly not very well-mannered ones: they scatter bulls around the territory, children pee in the pool, they clean their heels in the Jacuzzi (which does not work), women bathe in clothes that they walk down the street !!! ! Noisy, noisy. When the weekend ends, it's a wonderful time.
There are not many people in the hotel.
You can have lunch and dinner in a cafe opposite the hotel - to the right is Madame Chi, to the left is Madame Ding. According to the stories, there were good reviews about the Deja Vu cafe, but we did not get there. In general, there are a lot of all sorts of "madams". Once we went to the Forester - it was very expensive and there was nothing for our child. We dined in many cafes, but the child is tired and asks for cutlets. For the first time we went to the Terrace-Russian restaurant. It seems to have eaten normally, although the prices are higher than in madams. The music, although a thug chanson, was not intrusive. We went on the second day - thieves karaoke yells so that you can not hear anything nearby. For some reason, drunken 50-year-old men imagined themselves to be Levs Leshchenko and Mikhailovs in one person and sang karaoke, elderly drunk aunts danced, then the staff singer sang - also a "great musician" - yelling about a glass of vodka on the table so that his ears were blocked. We asked the local “hookah” waiter - Russian, a little “stoned” uncle, to make the music a little quieter - DO NOT TURN OFF, but TURN THE SOUND ON LITTLE so that the waitresses can be heard - the answer is they invite customers like that and you can’t be quieter - you don’t like it - you can leave and added another sound, and then went pure Soviet scoop! get out of here, go to Vietnamese eateries and eat there, here they listen to music (criminal chanson), but do not talk, etc. etc. and to everything they brought soup with seafood - squids stank so much that they threw up. We do not advise people who respect themselves and have human dignity to go there, and they can simply poison them. Maybe we were so unlucky, but arrogance and rudeness are not welcome! and also "liked" the sign - the best hookah in Vietnam. Did the uncle even understand what he wrote? where is Vietnam and where is the hookah? those who were in the "Arabs" will understand that there is a real Soviet trick, and the local Vietnamese residents generally laugh and say - Russian (nai... ) is deceiving the Russians! By the way, if anyone wants marijuana, they also offer it near the terrace.
Once we dined in a cafe with singing Filipinos, they sing beautifully, but they brought me a fried shark that stinks of ammonia. I returned it and said that it smelled bad, apologized, but did not dare to take anything else. Mine ate European cuisine and shrimp.
In general, everyone can choose something to their taste. Cobra is served almost everywhere (with a slaughter ritual), crocodile too, ostrich too, by the way, very tasty, duck is also tasty. The price range is different. For ourselves, we chose Madame CHI. Fresh juices - not very diluted - very tasty, cooked normally - pepper on request. There is also Thai tom yam (delicious, although somewhat idiosyncratic) and Vietnamese food. They took boiled potatoes to the child, bought butter in the store and crushed it in mashed potatoes. Ostrich meat or fish was cut and the child ate. Good chicken soup. Portions are big. Prices are not very high - five of us with a child and a bottle of Dalat wine spent from 30 to 50 dollars. We had lunch at a German restaurant next to the hotel. The prices are high, they cook normally, but they brought something completely different from what we ordered and what was on the menu! Juices diluted. Two soups and two fresh juices - $13.
We went to the FISHING VILLAGE on the second day. Read the Internet - fresh seafood !! ! All of this is, to put it mildly, not true. Yes, fish swim in an aquarium, but spiny lobster, squid, lobster, shrimp, shells, etc. – mostly fresh-frozen! Yes, they lie in their basins of water, supposedly alive, but in fact they are defrosting. (If meat has come out between the tail and neck of a lobster, this is a sure sign of freezing). The price for a live lobster is from 70 to 100 dollars and more, there can be no question of any cheapness. In Kharkov, a frozen lobster costs 20-30 dollars per kg. 41 dollars - live. In Paris, we ate lobsters for 90 euros -live in a restaurant! We went around the whole village, looked into every cafe, we did not find live lobsters! they offered from the freezer, while they said that they had recently been alive))) but they saw how they wash dishes in basins, and how rats walk around the kitchen, with what dirty rags they wipe glasses and wine glasses. We didn’t go to the village anymore, and in Mui Ne the SAME PRICES! SO WHAT about cheapness is a MYTH! Maybe compared to Moscow or Kiev restaurants? the second myth about live seafood! Yes, they are not frozen, but not alive! Everything is designed for tourists and prices accordingly.
About the hotel: the hotel is good. Out of all the nearby pool location is the best. There is a shade. The pool is open until 10 pm. Such a buzz when you lie in very warm water, palm trees rustle around, sometimes coconuts fall, and above you there is a southern sky and stars....a lot. because of this, I would go there again. In general, in Mui Ne, a strong and very strong wind begins on the beach from 9-10 o'clock. Carries sand and big waves rise. This area is for skaters. But the trouble is that 90 percent are only studying. When you swim, you need to not only watch the waves, but also the skaters - they can run over, hit, or rather beat with a wing. and scooters also beckon customers by riding a meter away from bathers. A few days escaped from the wind by the pool. They clean the room well, though the linen is not quite clean - stained and grayish in color. At the reception you can take a thermos with boiling water for coffee and tea, there is NO kettle in the rooms. Coffee and tea were taken from home. You can buy either Lipton black or Vietnamese green (with various additives). There are small red ants in the rooms and there are geckos, but this is not annoying. The territory is beautiful, green. Sunbeds are not enough, but you can always find.
Excursions: we were in Dalat - very interesting for the child too. Fishing on the lake - nadurilovka. They give tourists bad tackle and bait too, so that they don’t catch all the fish))), and lakes are a very big word. In general, I liked the rest, although it constantly strained - what to feed on? Another VERY IMPORTANT. THERE ARE NO PHARMACIES AS SUCH IN MUI NE! take all your medicines! When the medicine ran out for the child, we went to the clinic and there we were able to explain in English what was needed.
The last 2 days we were in HO CHI MIN. We thought to look around the city, shopping, excursions, etc.
We stayed at the Sapphire Hotel. The hotel is not bad, but the standard rooms are WITHOUT WINDOWS. Very depressing state of being in the room. YES, This is not Baiyoke Sky)))). The hotel is undergoing renovations. Tourists are not warned about this. We were settled on the 9th floor, the children on the 8th. Repairs were made on the 10th floor. The first day we went with the child from the grunts-knocks walked in the park. Hot, but beautiful. The playground is not broken, everything is clean. Motorcyclists are not very loud to hear. Then we got tired of the festivities, we wanted to relax - we went to the administration - the children were moved to a deluxe room on the 6th floor - WITH A WINDOW, but smaller in area than the standard. There is no pool in the hotel. Since we were picked up from the hotel at 24 o'clock, we extended the room. Money is taken per day. They don't have late check out.
Conclusion: Vietnam is an interesting, beautiful and unique country. The climate is good in February-early March. Rest in hotels 3-4-5 stars is from expensive to very expensive. If you want seafood and wine for breakfast, white sheets and a kettle, you are at -5 stars. The deluxe room cost us 115 dollars per night, I would not say that it was cheap. Although the country is not rich! The Vietnamese, for the most part, do not know Russian, English, or German. (Except for guides) People with healthy "bellies" can go, but with small children, it is problematic. I don’t know how they didn’t go to Nha Chang, but Mui Ne is not for calm swimming, but only for jumping on the waves. In the evening there is nowhere to go except restaurants. Things are expensive compared to Tai for example. And one more thing I didn’t like! - No offense is said for the Russians. Many hotels, restaurants, cafes, shops were bought by Russians, service and prices are higher than those of the Vietnamese. Quality-scoop! And the Vietnamese look at them and slowly take an example. We often heard how they laugh at us - Russians fool Russians. Agree - very annoying!
Actually go to Vietnam. It's always fun to see new countries! Especially beautiful! YES, WHY SALT AND PEPPER?? ? BUT BECAUSE IN ALL CAFE AND RESTAURANTS US WE WERE SERVED IN A POT OF SALT MIXED WITH PEPPER. SUCH A GRAY MIX!
I must say right away that I am writing for those who want to travel with small children and not very healthy people. Healthy, strong and beautiful youth can read the section of the cafe.
We thought for a long time where to go, because we were traveling with the whole family with a child of 4.5 years. Food was our number one choice. Everyone has health problems. Since my husband and I have been going to Thailand for 12 years, and the children were there 1 time, we decided to go to Vietnam. Read everything and a lot. I asked questions on turpravda, but for some reason no one answered! I should have thought about it right away !! ! but... everything is in order. There is now a direct plane flying from Kyiv to Ho Chi Minh. Tiring, but sat down, ate, slept and flew. BUT... If there is a financial opportunity, then it is better not to fly with an aerosuit, the food is bad (an instant rash went on cucumbers), the flight attendants practically do not pay attention to passengers at all. We flew normally - thanks to the pilots. Of the entire plane, only Ukrainians need to apply for a visa. The visa was issued for about an hour and a half (50 people were in line), the Vietnamese work very slowly. received the luggage, met the guide from the company - AMEGA. He speaks Russian well. We put in a minibus and drove to Fonthiet-Muine. I really liked the climate, there is no humidity, although it is hot, but if there is a breeze, it is wonderful! Mui Ne is a Russian resort. There are very few foreigners, mostly north, Siberia, Moscow and St. Petersburg.
The hotel was settled quickly. Passports were not taken. The guide was waiting for us to settle. We drove from the airport to the hotel -6 hours. (We were ready for this according to reviews). Hotel for a normal C grade, food for 2+. But you can eat. We were not satisfied with the food. Nothing is normal for kids. Everything with pepper - more or less, but there is. Our child does not eat eggs and rice. Breakfast: - Vietnamese soup - many people like it, but those who do not like spices and peppers will not do. I liked it, with cilantro, my husband did not. The usual, allegedly European soup was given 2-3 times a week, and for some reason it was sweet and smelled very parsley, hard fruit 4. fruits: watermelon, dragon fruit, papaya, bananas, pineapple. Green tea, black tea, coffee, juices not fresh - orange (more like a yuppie) - melon, tomato - fresh, but highly diluted, food: - rice, vermicelli, chicken with bones, with pepper, pork with vegetables and pepper, bad sausages and greasy bacon, scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs, banana pancakes (everything is fried on margarine), cucumber, tomato, cheese, ham, butter, pate and something else. No milk porridge, let alone seafood. A couple of times a dish ended - they just remove the bowls and push the rest apart. Replenishment (especially if it's potatoes) - no. Sandwiches with cheese and ham with cucumbers were thrust into the child. At the end of the rest, the child ate half an omelette! STARVED. Several times there were yogurts. Sweet - from rice vermicelli or biscuits. Fortunately, the child loves watermelons. yogurt we bought in a shop opposite the hotel-the crossroads is called. At the weekend - food under the Vietnamese - they come a lot for the weekend. There are normal ones, but mostly not very well-mannered ones: they scatter bulls around the territory, children pee in the pool, they clean their heels in the Jacuzzi (which does not work), women bathe in clothes that they walk down the street !!! ! Noisy, noisy. When the weekend ends, it's a wonderful time.
There are not many people in the hotel.
You can have lunch and dinner in a cafe opposite the hotel - to the right is Madame Chi, to the left is Madame Ding. According to the stories, there were good reviews about the Deja Vu cafe, but we did not get there. In general, there are a lot of all sorts of "madams". Once we went to the Forester - it was very expensive and there was nothing for our child. We dined in many cafes, but the child is tired and asks for cutlets. For the first time we went to the Terrace-Russian restaurant. It seems to have eaten normally, although the prices are higher than in madams. The music, although a thug chanson, was not intrusive. We went on the second day - thieves karaoke yells so that you can not hear anything nearby. For some reason, drunken 50-year-old men imagined themselves to be Levs Leshchenko and Mikhailovs in one person and sang karaoke, elderly drunk aunts danced, then the staff singer sang - also a "great musician" - yelling about a glass of vodka on the table so that his ears were blocked. We asked the local “hookah” waiter - Russian, a little “stoned” uncle, to make the music a little quieter - DO NOT TURN OFF, but TURN THE SOUND ON LITTLE so that the waitresses can be heard - the answer is they invite customers like that and you can’t be quieter - you don’t like it - you can leave and added another sound, and then went pure Soviet scoop! get out of here, go to Vietnamese eateries and eat there, here they listen to music (criminal chanson), but do not talk, etc. etc. and to everything they brought soup with seafood - squids stank so much that they threw up. We do not advise people who respect themselves and have human dignity to go there, and they can simply poison them. Maybe we were so unlucky, but arrogance and rudeness are not welcome! and also "liked" the sign - the best hookah in Vietnam. Did the uncle even understand what he wrote? where is Vietnam and where is the hookah? those who were in the "Arabs" will understand that there is a real Soviet trick, and the local Vietnamese residents generally laugh and say - Russian (nai... ) is deceiving the Russians! By the way, if anyone wants marijuana, they also offer it near the terrace.

The hotel has the largest and best beach, very decent food! Rooms are cleaned with high quality, without causing inconvenience to vacationers. The area is well maintained and the staff is friendly. The hotel is located in the center of the resort, so there is always a choice: where to eat and what to buy. Price-quality is even better than Terracotta.
