Fodor's Expert Review Phong Nha Farmstay

This small and stylish family-run colonial villa, a short distance from the national park, is probably the best deal in town. Beautifully furnished rooms decorated with sandstone Cham statues open on to a wraparound balcony that provides the most spectacular sunset and mountain views. Downstairs, an open dining area has a roaring open fire to keep you cozy in winter. There's also a beautiful pool.
