Friendly people and a cozy place to stay. Helped us right away with every question. Very respectful communication. The place itself is just nice and surrounded by beautiful nature.

There were few minor things to fix in the bathroom and refilling shower gel : shall get a general inspection before welcoming customers.

Cute and cozy homestay coupled with well organized jungle tours, definitely the best choice for visiting the wonders of Phong Nha. Really nice food cooked locally, warm and smiling staff members, they were always available and also provided laundry service.

We had a very short stay at jungle boss homestay but everything worked very well also with our pick-up for the jungle boss tour!

Coffee/ juice was not included in breakfast and we didnt know till the end when we cleared our bill

What a great spot to enjoy the real Vietnam. Quiet spot with local cows and water buffalo. Frog spotting, start gazing. This is Vietnam not an area of attractions. We loved having a week of rest and riding bikes, going to caves, botanical garden etc (transportation is more expensive in this area)

I thought it was the same jungle boss homestay as the one you go to for the treks but it was actually about a 15 minute drive from there. This is my own fault but just wanted to say it here in case others make the same mistake.

Beds very comfy and they let us use the room past check out for a very small fee.

Our host was kind and welcoming! We were here a very short time but he was very flexible. Thank you for letting us checking in so early! We also rented a bike, got transportation from Dong Hoi and got some info for activities in the neighborhood.

While the location was quiet and at the very edge of the village it was away from restaurants and main centres of activity and doesn't benefit from river views although the countryside and farmland views are interesting. We spent more than we expected on transport costs compared to other locations in Vietnam. However arranging transport was very convenient and Mary was able to make arrangements at short notice.

Staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. Communication both before and during our stay was excellent with Mary arranging drivers to transport us to and from the bus and to Paradise Cave and the Botanic Garden trails. The room was comfortable in slightly rustic jungle lodge style with verandahs front and back and had facilities to dry swimming gear. The swimming pool was excellent. We ate evening meals which were very good. We very much enjoyed our stay. If we had been intending to do one of Jungle Boss slightly more adventurous cave tours it would have been perfect location.

Only one lovely lady could speak English. We would have ordered more food/drinks from them but the other staff did not seem to want to talk with us. Only a minor thing really.

Good home stay experience.

Lovely staff. Quiet location. Mary took me on her scooter down to the river to have a swim at a locals spot. She also gave me a better room at no extra cost due to heat.

What you can't see in the photos is that there is a house adjacent (1m away) to the homestay as well as another house directly across the narrow (5m) street. There are several young children who play there most of the day and are quite noisy. It's probably not an issue if you plan to spend most of your time doing tours, but if you are looking for daytime peace and quiet, you might be disappointed.

The staff (especially Mary) are super polite, friendly, and helpful. The surrounding scenery is beautiful and the restaurant food is good in quality and value compared to what is available in Phong Nha.

Location too far from town. Better view and accessibility would have been nice. Food was mediocre.

Mary is terrific! She was exceptionally kind and attentive and very helpful.

The only problem with our stay was a dog barking in a small cave for which we felt really bad for. Apart from that everything was really good

Very nice and clean room! People working at the honestly were super nice and friendly.

great location out in the countryside which is what we wanted, very homely/family and relaxed feel to it, the room was very spacious and the facilities were excellent, the food was also amazing - fresh home cooked food, all excellent value for money

Very friendly and helpfull staff! Beautiful location, with bicycle rent for free. Lovely food and great breakfast was served.

Stayed in June 2022

The bathroom was quite mouldy but fairly clean otherwise and spacious. The location is a long way away from any other restaurants (15-20 minute walk) and even further from phong nha town. But makes for a nice remote stay.

Very helpful staff, good breakfast and good dinner - very reasonably priced. For the price of accommodation it was as expected.

Loved this homestay, the owner was super helpful and helped us book a tour. Food was really good and decent priced. the room was lovely and bed was super comfy. would highly highly recommend! :)

Jungle Boss is a lovely homestay tucked a bit out of the town of Phong Nha. It has lovely views of the mountains behind and they provide you with bikes so you can get into the village. Although there is no need to if you don't want to as they offer delicious food, smoothies and cocktails. The homestay is based on a farm and so you know the food is fresh. The families on the street are extremely friendly and the kids are adorable. Booking with Jungle Boss was ideal as a solo traveller for their first time in Vietnam. They collected me from the airport, organised my cave tours and booked my bus journey onto Hue. They did all of this via WhatsApp before arrival which was perfect as I was only there for 2 nights so it was great to have it all organised. I would definitely recommend staying here if you want to be immersed in local life and tucked away from the main street.

Beautiful family in a gorgeous location overlooking paddies, mountains and farmland. The homestay is just far enough from the nearby restaurant/hostel street to feel closer to quiet, local life, but only a short bike ride away (provided free of charge) so you’re options are plentiful. Also, wonderful to book tours through. A perfect stay!

Out in the country peaceful

Great accommodation and friendly, helpful staff

Great place just outside main town area. Lots of restaurants just a short walk away and an even shorter cycle if you use the available free bicycles. Well laid out very comfortable rooms and staff were extremely helpful in advising us what we could do and with helping book trips and organise drivers and advice for self-organised excursions.

Stayed in August 2023

The mattress on the double bed was pretty hard. But we can't complain about other things.

We just have been here for one night (did a cave tour the entire day). The staff was super friendly and helpful + the food was amazing. We would come back again.
