"Whoever issues this sort of review request should check carefully before sending it. We were not able to stay at the Retreat because our flights to Vietnam were cancelled because of the war in Iran. We knew that the Retreat booking was not cancellable, but they would not offer us credit towards a future stay if we manage to re-arrange this once in a lifetime holiday. All we can say is that the Retreat was the most expensive of the places we were due to stay on our travels and therefore would hope that it lived up to the cost. We wish them well but are not likely to go there when we finally get to Vietnam. "

"Not a huge choice in Breakfast menu but completely adequate. Did have options of freshly made eggs such as scrambled or fried etc as most we have seen. Friendly staff and helpful when required. The little bungalow room was ideal, really nice and clean, not a huge amount of space and a bit tight on suitcase space when just travelling for a few nights but no drama. Was within a 600m walk to centre of tam cóc which was fine, easy walk and nice to be a short way out of the bustle. Overall we were really happy with the stay and would recommend to others"

"Overall a great stay for my family and I. Location is super convenient to shops, restaurants, Tam Coc lake and the main road. The staff was super friendly and responsive to our questions. Would highly recommend this hotel."

"We had 3 rooms, and each was clean, beautiful and comfortable. Staff was responsive to our questions and needs. The countryside is beautiful, there are great coffee shops near by, and other interesting things to see and do. "

"The staff were great, the location was a bit far from hustle and bustle of the downtown area of tam coc about a 20 minute walk or 5 minute grab ride. "

"Staff was amazing "

"Staff and location very good. Miss Lyn, her husband and staff very nice and helpful. Avoid room 201 - no view and too close to staff quarters (loud and early noise). "
