I had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful homestay for three days, and I must say, it was an excellent experience. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with 5-star service that made me feel right at home. The owner, who spoke impeccable English, went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. One of the highlights of my stay was the food. Every meal was a culinary delight, freshly prepared by the owner's grandmother. I savored authentic local Vietnamese cuisine that was bursting with flavors and made with love. It was a true treat to taste the real essence of the region's dishes. Beyond the exceptional service and delicious food, what truly stood out was the opportunity to immerse myself in Vietnamese culture. The homestay's countryside setting provided a unique window into the daily lives of the locals. From exploring the surroundings to engaging with the community, it was an enriching experience that allowed me to connect with the heart of Vietnam. In short, this homestay offered a perfect blend of comfort, hospitality, and cultural immersion. If you're looking for an authentic and memorable way to explore the Vietnamese countryside, I wholeheartedly recommend this exceptional homestay.

The host and his family are amazingly friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. We deeply enjoyed the Mekong boat trip, the bike tour and the delicious free coconuts.

We can truly recommend you spend a few days here. Everything from making you feel like part of the family to the tours and activities provided is a must see if you are thinking of spending time around the Mekong delta. Homemade fantastic food, cleanliness, they really do their best so you have a memorable time. We surely hope to come back here!

We really enjoyed our stay at Vina Ecolife, but there are a couple of things future travelers should know. First, the hotel is located in Phu Le village, in Ben Tre Province, not Ben Tre City. Booking.com wasn’t clear about this — it’s about an hour’s drive from the city, so just be aware of the location if you’re planning your trip. That said, the village itself is peaceful and charming and fun to cycle around with the free bikes the hotel provides. We had a fantastic meal at a local restaurant nearby (Tien Oc Hoi Xua), and the setting is ideal if you’re looking to experience authentic rural life in the Mekong Delta. The real highlight was the staff — incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. A special shoutout to Huan, who went above and beyond to make our trip memorable. She arranged transport, organised a brilliant tour to a Homestay on an island where we were warmly welcomed by the host family. We cut and drank fresh coconuts, cycled around the island, relaxed in hammocks with a cold beer, and enjoyed a sunset boat ride. She also took us to a nearby village to meet locals making bamboo baskets, and we shared green tea with them — a truly special experience. Breakfast at the hotel was also great, with tasty local options. The only downside was that the air conditioning wasn’t quite powerful enough for the room, so it stayed a bit too warm, and there was no fridge, which would have been handy. Overall, Vina Ecolife is a perfect spot if you’re looking to get off the beaten track and experience the local hospitality.
