Mui Ne Lotus Village: A Hidden Gem
Mui Ne Lotus Village, tucked away in the heart of Mui Ne's traveler district, is a true hidden gem. It offers a unique experience with not one but two swimming pools that remain open late into the evening. What sets this resort apart are its distinctive parasols, adding a touch of uniqueness to the ambiance. I had the pleasure of staying in a Standard View Room for two nights, which was not only affordable but also comfortable.
Mui Ne Lotus Village welcomes guests with open arms, providing a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The moment you step into the resort, you're greeted by a serene atmosphere and warm hospitality.
The Resort's Highlights
The standout feature of Mui Ne Lotus Village is undoubtedly its two spacious swimming pools. The pool with a view of the sea and the one within the resort premises provided the perfect backdrop for capturing beautiful photos. Whether you want to take a leisurely swim under the sun's warm embrace or relax by the poolside with a refreshing drink, this resort offers it all.
Additionally, both pools remain open well into the night, allowing you to relax and enjoy the peaceful ambiance. Imagine floating in the pool under the starlit sky, the sound of gentle waves in the background - it's a memory you'll cherish forever.
The in-side pool is just exotic, where there are a lot of trees. You can feel utmost mood of Mui Ne, abroad from your daily routine.
Dining Experience
The resort's breakfast offerings ranged from average to excellent. The meals were both delicious and diverse, catering to various tastes. Considering the price, around 40 dollars per night for accommodation, the quality of the breakfast was commendable. The fresh fruits were a highlight, and the unlimited coffee and iced coffee kept me lingering by the pool and beach, savoring my caffeine fix while gazing at the stunning surroundings.
Out of the most, baguette bread is so amazing.
The dining experience at Mui Ne Lotus Village is not limited to breakfast. The resort also offers a range of dining options, including local and international cuisines, ensuring that your taste buds are tantalized throughout your stay.
Location and Convenience
Mui Ne Lotus Village enjoys a convenient location, situated midway along Mui Ne's traveler district. This central positioning makes it easy to access local restaurants and attractions. Using Uber scooters, I found it incredibly convenient to explore the area, with short rides costing just around one dollar. The resort's proximity to dining establishments adds to its appeal, making it an ideal base for exploration.
The resort's strategic location is perfect for those who want to immerse themselves in the local culture. Nearby, you'll find a variety of dining options, ranging from quaint family-owned restaurants to street food vendors offering delicious Vietnamese dishes.
I visited several restaurants, where they served nice meal at a reasonable price. 1) sindbad kebap) 2) golden shell, 3) Mr. crab. If I have a chance, I could bring some memories about these, and write a post.
Room Insights
While Mui Ne Lotus Village offers many advantages, the room conditions are not without their drawbacks. The accommodations display signs of wear and tear, standing in contrast to newer, more modern resorts. Although I don't have photos to share, I did encounter a few unwelcome visitors in the form of cockroaches due to the resort's natural surroundings. However, it's worth noting that the rooms are equipped with effective pest control measures, preventing the critters from entering the living spaces. The bathrooms, while functional, lacked the pristine cleanliness expected, and the low water pressure in the shower made for a less-than-ideal experience. Furthermore, the rigid room door posed some difficulty when trying to open or close it. Also, the use of a traditional key to access the room meant that I couldn't leave the air conditioning on when I stepped out, necessitating some wait time for the room to cool down upon return.
Despite these minor inconveniences, it's essential to remember that Mui Ne Lotus Village offers budget-friendly accommodations with several amenities that make it an excellent choice for travelers seeking both comfort and affordability.
