“Peaceful vibes and comfortable guesthouse”

You will have the chance to meet a family of three generations living under the roof of this typical Mekong Delta house.

The Gite Năm Hiền is located in the heart of the luxuriant Chợ Lách region in the Bến Tre province, known for its fruit gardens and bonsai trees. Chợ Lách village is on the national road 57 which goes through lovely areas such as Rạch Miễu, Cái Mơn, Vĩnh Long…

This house is divided into two sides, each different from the other but very representative of the Mekong architectural style. On the first side, there is a small wooden house with red tiles in the middle of an orange grove. This house has two rooms, a Western-style toilet, and a hot shower. In front there is a spacious living room with an outside, the living room is where Mr. Năm keeps his collection of gardening tools, rice-picking tools. This small house is perfect for a family of 4 people.

Opposite of this house, in a garden filled with pomelo and longan trees, after passing a small bucolic bridge, you will finda big traditional wooden house. This house is decorated in the traditional style of Southern Vietnam with carvings and ancient artifacts. Mr.Năm tries his best to revive the ancient traditions and values throughout his house. 24 columns in precious wood, wood carvings, ancient furniture, an altar for ancestors… all this will give you the feeling of traveling back in time all the way to 18th-century feudal Vietnam. At the back of the large house are the bedrooms in a garden of the fruit-trees. This part of the house has private rooms, just as in a hotel.

At the end of the garden, after passing all rooms you will find a 4m wide and 14m long swimming pool in the middle of a flower garden, ideal to relax after a long day in the Delta.
