A Must do on your trip in Sapa! You get a deep appreciation for the people in the villages learning of their history and how they do things. The most beautiful views as well. My trekking guide, Bao was very lovely. Hope to see her next time. Would do it again for sure
The Hometrek offered stunning vistas that truly inspired our appreciation for nature. More options for breakfast would be appreciated.
Romantic and secluded. Perfect for couples wanting some quiet time together. Hometrek made our stay extra special. A private dining experience would be a wonderful addition.
Pure joy staying here! Love Hometrek! The landscapes were gorgeous, and the hosts were delightful. Breakfast could be served earlier.
I love Hometrek! Our hearts were filled with tranquility as we soaked in the natural beauty around us. The evening bonfires added a cozy touch to the ambiance. Limited availability of staff during late hours.
Hometrek tour exuded a relaxed atmosphere that instantly put us at ease. The gentle breeze and rustling leaves were incredibly soothing. Occasional noise from nearby wildlife at night.
Nestled amidst lush greenery, this homestay offered a soothing retreat for the weary soul. The traditional herbal baths were a treat for the senses. Insect presence in outdoor seating areas.
I twisted my ankle 10 mins before my trek so my guide had to help me a lot during the trip. In the end, I had to cut my trip short at the 3.5 hours mark due to the pain. My guide was nice and helped me book a bike back. am giving 4 stars instead of 5 because of seasonality - there wasn’t much going on in March.
For the price of stay, they are squeezing everything they can to provide us, the breakfast are enough. The room is good enough to just rest and sleep. The home's location is a bit difficult to find
Our room was a great size, over looking the mountains, a cute balcony. Perfect to sit with a beer and look at the amazing view. It has a steep climb to reach and their trek service helped us have great experiences. Internet connectivity may be less reliable.
