What a hidden gem! The location is so beautiful. Our “cabin” was a truly unique stay. The views outside our room were stunning. The food was very good. The staff were absolutely amazing! They went above and beyond to help us. So glad we found this place!

I am traveling solo and I stayed in a blue pod type of accomodations. It's "glamping" at it's best. It's so nice, clean and high tech, including an automatic bidet. The Homestay is beautiful with beautiful plants, trees and pond. The lights at night really make this place looks like a fairy land! The staff here are so nice and helpful! Thank you Lucas and Max for taking care of me during my stay!

Lovely place and quite remote. About 15 minutes drive towards sites in Ninh Binh. We were freezing though. Had to sleep with an electric blanket and the heating on all night. So better to stay when it’s not as cold. We visited in January.

Super friendly staff going above and beyond to help with anything you need. They booked the full day local tour for us which was fantastic with a local guide and I would highly recommend. Rooms were comfortable and large. Coffee for breakfast was superb. Breakfast itself limited but sufficient. Visit Hoa Lu old town (8 min. Grab ride) by the river for a nice river front walk with tons of restaurants and super friendly people.

If you are looking for a Four Season style hotel then this is not your spot. But if you are looking for “glamping” with gorgeous nature around then this is it. Most notably is the hot shower runs out after about 10 minutes. So this is what I mean by “glamping” But otherwise a great serene place with amazing views of Ninh Binh mountains on the backdrop. Lucas (the hotel manager) was amazing as was the rest of the workers. The fish ponds around added so much to the taste of being the nature. The dogs are friendly and often came to say hello to us. We are dog people so we enjoyed meeting them.

Good location. Lots to see and do near by. Resort has potential but is more of a mom and pop quality . Nice chickens, ducks animals of lost kinds around. Restaurant is pricy with small portions . Cheap scooter rentals but ours had no working gas gauge or speedometer. Dogs barking all night and paper thin walls transmit all voices and noises . I would stay again but not for everyone.

Disliked: Amenities
I booked this place on the strength of the rating but I have to admit that I felt really let down. It all started with the poor welcome and reception that we received i.e. left standing outside a closed gate with all our luggage under the hot sun for sometime before the staff eventually arrived and no help offered with our luggage. The safe in the chalet did not work. The waste water from the bathroom basin was emptying directly into the pond (with fish) behind the chalet as the waste pipe had become disconnected. There was a strong sulphuric stench when we started using the water in the bathroom. I suspect that there may be bacterial build up in the water system. The food in the restaurant was disappointing and was really hit and miss on what was served with my orders. I ordered an omelette for breakfast and was served scrambled eggs, ginger tea was served instead of green tea. What was supposed to come with rice noodles came with rice instead. There were 3 power outages during our 2 days stay and no torch provided in the chalet. These last from 30 minutes to nearly 2 hours. No back up generator and communication was really poor. On the plus side, the staff tries their best. They were very helpful and friendly but cannot compensate for the poor amenities. The area around the chalet is lovely but the location is quite remote. It is a drive to get anywhere. Around 15 minutes to Tam Coc.

The property was peaceful and felt out of the way, but access to cars using Grab was always easy and fast, and inexpensive. The hotel was helpful in arranging transportation from Hanoi airport to the hotel, and from the hotel to Hanoi Old Quarter, which was cheaper than four of us taking a bus. The food was good, and the staff were incredibly friendly. Our room was clean, with bottled water added every day. The AC doesn’t run when you aren’t in the room, so it’s hot when you get back after a day out, but the room cooled relatively quickly. The kids wished we could stay longer!

I’m traveling from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City and originally thought about skipping Ninh Binh — I’m so glad I didn’t. I came across photos of Fairy Mountain Resort and thought, This place looks different from the usual spots I’ve been staying at. And it absolutely was. The resort is beautiful, peaceful, and surrounded by nature. The staff were friendly and welcoming from the moment I arrived. I had an early departure, so I settled my bill the night before. As I was getting ready to head back to my room, the owner — who lives on-site — invited me to have a beer with him and his wife. It turned into one of those unforgettable, genuine travel moments. That’s the real magic of traveling: connecting with people, hearing their stories, and sharing a laugh over a cold drink. Next time I’m in Ninh Binh, there’s no question — I’ll be staying here again. Oh — and one more thing: I was out at 4:30 a.m. and having trouble getting a Grab ride back. I texted the resort a picture of my location, and they immediately sent a taxi and made sure I got back safely.

The hotel was lovely, very beautiful grounds, extremely kind people. The only two negatives were there was a mandatory power outage one morning turning off our ac and WiFi and also the shower water pressure was just ok. The beds were comfortable, the food was good. Location is near many of the attractions but outside nihn bihn city center.
