Sapa Hillcrest Homestay was our favorite of the three popular destinations we visited in Vietnam. If you are looking for an authentic, low-key experience with a local family, this is the place to be. The location is not located near a main road so there is walking/hiking involved. Pe, the owner, will assist you with directions and meet you at a nearby main road. The mountain roads can be very steep and difficult to walk for a person with less physical abilities. We are a family of seven (16 years old and older) and had one person that struggled with the walk. However, Pe and his family are happy to pick up you and/or your luggage and get you to the house by motorbikes. They were very accommodating, fed us delicious meals, and welcomed us like family. We loved experiencing daily life in the H'Mong village. Their house is in walking distance to Cat Cat Village, which I would highly recommend visiting. Sapa is also nearby. The walk through rice terraces and clouds was breath-taking. Pe's English-speaking skills are great, so we had no trouble with communication. We loved hanging out with the little kids by the fire and watching them interact with the family. The food was amazing and fresh from their farm. The beds were comfortable and had very warm comforters. This experience was invaluable and our favorite time while traveling through North Vietnam. Thank you, Pe and family! We hope to visit you again!

This place is really beautiful. We only booked for 1 day but end up staying for 3 days. The location is perfect, in which you can hike by yourself or with a guide. Also the breakfast is so good.

We absolutely loved staying with Lan and Thuan. It was home away from home in the most beautiful setting with gorgeous views and waterfall on the doorstep. The food was a real highlight of our whole trip to Vietnam. We really enjoyed trekking with Thuan who is an excellent guide. 11/10 recommend - definitely worth the trip!

I don't think I could do justice to May and her family in my review but it was life changing! From the minute I booked to my departure, May and her family were incredibly welcoming. The three nights I spent here are sacred because I came as a guest and left as friends! May is a superwoman, she is an excellent tour guide, safe motorcyclist, fabulous chef and the best host I have ever had. The bungalow is in the most magical setting and to have delicious breakfast every morning immersed in a green oasis is special indeed. Cao (May's son) provided excellent communication and was always on hand to help. As a solo female traveller, I felt very safe my entire trip. I thoroughly enjoyed the trek, the herbal bath and motorbike tour! I also loved all the dinners I had and May's culinary expertise meant she was able to adapt the meals to my taste- i.e. extra spicy! I will make it a point to revisit Vietnam, just to stay with May and her family!
