Program Details

The homestay is run by myself and my wife. It's a small homestay that welcomes a mix of local and international guests whom we love to show around Pleiku as it's a lesser known destination in Vietnam. The homestay is surrounded by coffee trees and next to a large lake. Guests often enjoying visiting many of the unique attractions around the homestay including, lakes, tea and coffee plantations, mountains, farms and a volcano.

Activities & Shift

Most days you will be free to relax or explore the area during the day and will only be needed in the late afternoon and early evening. At night, we have a rooftop bar/kitchen and are passionate bartenders, so if you have any interest in learning about modern Vietnamese cocktails, we'd love to teach you!

Strictly no drugs, according to local laws.
