This was my second time staying. I feel very happy there - the breakfast is amazing (the pho and the Vietnamese coffee and yogurt), the staff are very kind, the hotel grounds are beautiful (all the moringa and jasmine). The yoga and meditation and wellness classes were very valuable to me. I appreciated the kindness of so many staff members - Khoi, Tuyet, Sam, Patrick, Ms Tu. There were many more. I was glad that you added more wellness classes - it's one of the reasons I returned and I found them very meaningful. I also loved the facial. Thank you for everything. I hope I can come back next year.

Fabulous old colonial building set in well kept gardens. Fabulous staff, so friendly and nicely attentive to your every needs. Food is out of this World. Chef Sin is exceptional….so so friendly and just a happy person.

Hotel Beach area could be better but there is a free daily shuttle bus to white sandy beaches on the east coast 20mins away.

We loved everything! Cute walkways to our room. Lovely yoga space, gym and spa. The food was amazing! We actually took a ride down to the JW Marriot to have dinner. Everyone of our four dinners at La Veranda were better than the seafood platter we had at the Marriot. The people here work so hard and are so kind. It was a pleasure to stay here.

While we were there it was VERY hot. Our air conditioner worked perfectly. It would have been nice if there was a bar or eating space that was air conditioned. Maybe it was difficult because we are not used to the heat… it was snowing at home.

La Veranda truly is a magical place. Sure, as is evident from the pictures, it is an incredibly beatiful place. The idyllic boutique hotel, with its tropical garden and exquisite buildings, overlooks a wide pristine beach where you'll have plenty of space to enjoy the ocean. The main building is gorgeously decorated and it will be impossible to resist having one of the hotel's signature drinks on the veranda overlooking the sun setting in the ocean. The rooms are gorgeous and impeccably cleaned. The food is absolutely amazing. The breakfast is spectacular and was the highlight of our day - the Vietnamese dishes offered at breakfast could compete with most of the dinners we had had during our stay in Vietnam, not to mention the pho. Mix that with a great offering of Western options - do not miss out on the Egg Benedict - and a wide variety of options, coupled with bottled fresh juice, resulted in the most enjoyable breakfast experience I've ever had. Be sure to try out the many great dishes offered at the garden restaurant (Le Jardin) and DO NOT miss out on the Vietnamese buffet offered once a week or so. And, not least, the food at the main restaurant (The Peppertree) will guarantee to blow you away. The complementary daily activities offered by the hotel were really enjoyable and provided a really nice complement and touch to our stay. We made sure to attend all of them - the afternoon tea, the cooking class, the rum tasting were all great. Do not miss out on those, nor the great spa! But what truly makes this place so special is the service. The kindess, attention and hospitality that the staff - all of the staff - at La Veranda shows you will draw you in and make you feel right at home. At the end of the stay, it felt like leaving a family.

Beautiful building, lovely pool and very friendly and accommodating staff. Fun to be able to walk to the local shops and bars.

Bathrooms were a little basic but fine for the price. So loved the general feel of the hotel, I just wished the sea was a little clearer and it didn’t have such grotty next door neighbours. There was a VERY loud bar on one side and what looked like an abandoned nightclub on the other. It’s a beautiful hotel that belongs somewhere else, a real rose amongst thorns. If you’re sensitive about noise (I confess, I am, even hate music around a pool) this is not for you. Also not for young families - our teens are great with board games on rainy days but if you have younger or more active kids I’d suggest a bigger hotel. Great for pool lovers who aren’t fussed about the beach. And the breakfast on the wraparound first floor balcony is gorgeous.

The hotel is beautiful and very clean with a few minutes walk to the Main Street with bars and restaurants. Also very clean beach area and nice pool area. The standout is the staff, all very friendly and enthusiastic, everything we asked for was accommodated with a smile. The food and the cocktails in the restaurants were delicious.

The breakfast was very good with loads of Vietnamese foods, juices, fruit, cakes and egg, pancake, waffle and crepes station. $25 per person is a bit expensive though especially in Vietnam. Not an issue if included in the rate however.

We loved everything about this hotel. This has to have been the most beautiful and charming hotels we have ever stayed in. It was pure heaven. Every aspect about this hotel was perfect. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful, they couldn’t do enough for you. The room we stayed in (Ocean View) was magnificent. The attention to detail throughout the hotel was immaculate and so well thought out. The spa was wonderful, the treatments worth every penny. The food delicious, the beach was a little piece of paradise. Every night we watched the sunset on the beach and WOW we will never forget those sunsets they were so perfect it didn’t feel real. The pool a perfect temperature and beautifully maintained. We loved our stay so much we didn’t leave it over the 4 days we were here and many people we spoke to were staying for 2 weeks and came every year from the UK and Europe. We would definitely like to return for longer some day. Thank you to everyone at the hotel for making our stay truly magical.

Very good selection of fresh produce for breakfast.

Larger selection of Asian fruits for breakfast….lychee, rambutan….and pineapple would have been good.

Our stay at this hotel was absolutely perfect! It felt like stepping into a movie set depicting the luxurious life of the early 19th century, seamlessly blended with all the modern technological conveniences we enjoy today. The atmosphere was truly enchanting, allowing us to fully embrace the feeling of being on vacation and to truly relax. What truly stood out was the exceptional service provided by the staff. They went above and beyond to ensure that every guest, including us, had the best possible experience. Their dedication and attention to detail were remarkable. We felt completely taken care of and could fully immerse ourselves in the relaxing ambiance. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable getaway where they can truly unwind and experience a touch of timeless elegance

This hotel was the best experience of our entire trip, and I would gladly return again! It has a fantastic location and a beautiful, cozy beach—perfect for relaxation. The staff is incredibly friendly and professional, making you feel truly welcome. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a welcome drink, which set the perfect tone for our stay. The hotel has a wonderful atmosphere with its charming colonial-style design. The food was excellent, the grounds were beautifully maintained, and the spa was outstanding, offering professional massages that left us feeling completely refreshed. This hotel exceeded all our expectations, and I can't wait to come back!

We loved absolutely everything! The only thing I would recommend is bringing mosquito repellent, as there are quite a few mosquitoes when sitting in the garden at the villa. But of course, this is not a complaint about the hotel! 😉
