寧平家庭民宿(Ninh Binh Family Homestay & Organic Restaurant)

We went to Ninh Binh Family Homestay to have lunch as we heard the food was organic and good. The meal that we had there was excellent. More importantly, we had a great friendly discussion with Thanh, the owner, and he arranged for a wonderful two days of sightseeing led by he and his brother. They showed the areas that tourist rarely see, the hidden sights of NInh Binh. I highly recommend the use of their good services.

We stayed here for one night and I wish we had been able to stay longer. Tang and his wife were super friendly and so helpful. We had a fabulous dinner here and somehow they found a bottle of cab sav for us. The location is away from the main sights but there are some wonderful caves close by and quieter and better than others. They will organise a driver or tours here also.

Was a nice quiet place to stay. The highlight was the night time tour of the Bai Dinh pagoda organised by the owner of the homestay. It was breathtakingly beautiful and our guide was extremely knowledgeable and set us up for the rest of our stay in Vietnam. Food at the homestay was yummy and as there was no menu always a surprise but a pleasant one.

We had a wonderful time at this homestay. Our hosts were fantastic and made us feel right at home. The meals were very good and there was so much food! Scott even suggested some rainy weather activities which were fantastic! Check out the Sao So King Herbal Bath if you get the chance! We would definitely recommend this stay!

A special shout out to Ninh Binh Family Homestay for making our time in Ninh Binh so wonderful! After reading reviews online I booked our stay here directly with the owner Scott. Scott was fantastic, he organised our transfers from Hanoi and to Halong Bay, and he gave us the best rooms for us and our teenager sons. The bungalows were gorgeous, super clean and peaceful. When we arrived Scott's wife cooked us a beautiful lunch and then Scott took us on a cycle tour through the old village, he then organised a boat trip to Trang An and drove us home afterwards. The next day Scott organised an amazing tour guide for us who took us to Cuc Phuong National Park, the turtle and monkey sanctuary and Mua Cave. Both nights we had dinner cooked by Scott's wife and it was just delicious! I cannot thank Scott and family enough for our wonderful stay here, my only regret is that we didn't stay longer! I hope this review is helpful for others looking for a trip to Ninh Binh, I'm so glad we did this rather than a rushed day trip from Hanoi.

The best part of our trip by far! I wish we stayed longer. Scott and his wife were amazing hosts, the food was fantastic and Scott even organised a birthday cake with my sons name on it for his 6th birthday. Scott organised a driver for us to take us to some amazing spots, the Bear Sanctuary was a favourite. I would highly recommend staying here, we hope to go back one day.

We had a lovely stay in this little paradise! The family did everything to make us feel home. The food was delicious and vegetarian friendly and the place was very well maintained! To top it all off: they have a very cute dog! ☺️

Super clean and beautiful place, with amazing Vietnamese restaurant - best place on our trip so far! Good for families, but also for couples. Very friendly, welcoming and helpful hosts. Many activities, sights and landscapes to see around, the trip from Hanoi was totally worth it!!

My wife and I absolutely loved our three night stay. Our hosts provided bikes (free) & rental motorbikes; amazing meals (breakfast included); great conversation; and amazing hospitality. While not located in central Ninh Binh, we preferred the quiet, idylic scenery of Gia Sinh. The Bai Ding pogoda - an absolute must visit - is just a few minutes away on a beautiful bike ride through farms and rice fields. The motorbike ride from Gia Sinh to Ninh Binh passes through beautiful Trang Anh - the best scenery around! Not much in terms of eating around the homestay, but the home cooking was wonderful to return to every night for dinner.
