The property is beautifully designed without feeling overly luxurious — just calm, tasteful, and connected to nature. I stayed for three nights and joined several excursions arranged by the resort, all of which felt carefully tailored rather than touristy. My guide, Tran, made a huge difference in the experience. He shared stories and historical context that helped me understand Vietnam in a much more meaningful way. Some activities included well-known attractions, but the quieter moments were the ones I loved most — hiking through the mountains, visiting peaceful parts of the national park, and learning about local medicinal plants alongside the resort’s gardener. Returning to the resort each evening felt incredibly comforting. The hot bath, the silence, and the fresh local food created the perfect balance after active days outdoors. More than anything, what stays with me is the kindness and attention of the team. Cabalina feels less like a hotel and more like a place created with genuine care.

Stunning rooms in a stunning location with incredibly helpful and kind staff. We felt lucky to be in this peaceful valley in the center of Cat Ba, perfect to explore the island from. Shout out to John for helping with transport at the end of our stay (but also the entire staff were lovely!). Beds/bedding were so cozy at the end of long days hiking around.

Comfortable, clean, convenient, mordent, pretty, delicious food, there is a swimming pool in the rooftop with nice view, has billiards and bar and restaurant, also a room for gym

I wish I could give more than 5 stars!! This place has stolen our hearts. From the amazing breakfasts, coffees, lunch and dinners we had to the jacuzzi pool and the comfortable beds it was just beyond perfect. Everyone coming to Cat Ba should definitely stay here. They offer laundry service, scooter rental, tour bookings and so much more. Our hearts go out to little baby Bun, Tuan, Long, Manaah and of course Linh and her mother. We wish you all the best in life an

Beach front - location away from town. Free bicycle available, and scooters rental at the property. Room was very spacious, cleaned daily, with very comfortable beds. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, especially the manager. Definitely a place to socialise and to bond with fellow backpackers, maybe less suitable for people seeking tranquility.

🌈Great cozy & chill hostel outside of the centre. There is a bus stop right in front of the hostel to take you to the centre or you can use free bicycles from hostel to get around in case you also don't drive a scooter :) Staff is really friendly and helpful! Looking forward to go back to this hostel again! 🎈

Friendly host and very professional

We had a wonderful stay at Kangaroo Homestay in Cat Ba. The staff were incredibly warm, welcoming, and friendly, which made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Mia, the front desk agent, went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, and her kindness truly made a difference. The food was delicious and fresh, and every meal was a pleasure. Our room was very clean and nice, providing a comfortable and relaxing space throughout our stay. Thank you for the great experience—we would definitely come back! 🦘✨

In a quiet place but also close enough to all the party places as well as the island attractions like the monkey beach or the bunker cave. The guys managing the hostel are very experienced and also provide you with food and drinks (Vietnamese and Western). Also everything is new and the rooms are not overcrowded and beds have curtains!

Staff were amazing, so helpful and friendly! The room and location were beautiful, really enjoyed my stay here.

The host was really accommodating and helped me book multiple trips while staying there. They have scooter rentals, and boat tours out of the hotel. They upgraded my room for me to have a view which was really kind. Included breakfast was great.

The hotel is very new and clean, the staff was super helpful in booking us a taxi from the airport, a motorbike for our stay and a transfer to Hanoi. They even got us cash without having to go to the ATM. The room was very pretty and comfortable! The free water in the lobby is an extra plus.
