Nestled in amongst rice fields is a beautifully constructed French Colonial style accommodation hoste by the loveable Ben (from Australia) and Bich (a local Vietnamese).
From the minute you arrive at Phong Nha Farmstay it is like your home away from home. The staff are amazing and friendly, the food is great, you can kicki back and play some pool (you'll quickly get the hang of the Vietnamese gravitational pull that causes the ball to follow an exciting adventure to the hole, just like the Phong Nha area), swim in the pool or just kick back with a beer and relax in a hammock.
Ben and Bich are heavily involved with the community and promoting the amazing natural wonders. This gives you the advantage of exploring the local area, especially the underground caves, from the view point of a local which makes the experience ever better.
There are many ways to get here. If you are in HCMC or Hanoi there are flights to Dong Hoi every second day, followed by a 30 minute taxi ride, which Ben or Bich can arrange for you. Otherwise you can go by train, bus or motor bike.
