Mekong Home is a small family run lodge in the heart of 'coconut country', Ben Tre province. Comprising ten air-conditioned bungalows formed around a tropical water garden and coconut trees, the property is homely and charming. Access to the lodge is via a village pathway, allowing it to blend seamlessly into the surrounding hamlet.
The open kitchen and restaurant are the focal point of the property and guests are greeted here with fresh coconut drinks straight from the garden. Charming wooden furniture contrast the grey, concrete floors and Mekong handicraft items are dotted throughout. Cycling and boat excursions are available to experience while staying at the lodge and there is also a sunset bar from which to enjoy river life and Mekong skies.
OUR OPINION:
An ideal base to escape the city and relax in peaceful surrounds. Mekong Home also boasts several activities designed to immerse visitors into rural Vietnamese life.
