Mango Home Riverside

As a part of a 5-week Vietnam and Cambodia trip, we chose to have 4 days in the Delta. Two of those at Mango Home Riverside. We experienced a warm welcome and met the owners as well when we arrived. There are a number of tours to chose from, all of which looked interesting. We chose to do a 1-hour sunset tour the evening we arrived and then a half day tour the following morning. The sunset tour left a bit early so we had returned before the sun had actually set however the views of life on the waterway and enjoying a beer on the boat were appreciated. The second tour was fabulous with a boat trip, a visit to a coconut factory, cycling to brickworks with “beehive” ovens, another boat ride to where we adventured up a small waterway in a long-tail boat padded by two locals. It was a bit of an adventure as we struggled against the current but perseverance won out and we arrived at a local home to enjoy tea and coconut sweets. The guide spoke good English plus a little Mandarin (we were a mixed group) and went beyond his brief by jumping in to help guide the small boats up the river current. On to Tuk tuks to another local home to participate in baking rice paper then off to two different rice wine distilleries. 40-50% proof was enjoyed by all in a small shot glass! Back to the resort for an included lunch (the trip was great value) then the afternoon to enjoy the palm-fringed swimming pool and bar service. The staff try very hard to meet the guest needs and. although the meal and drink delivery is not perfectly co-ordinated, the food and drinks are of a good standard. The grounds of the resort are lush gardens with a beautiful lily pond, and the restaurant overlooks the river. There is also a bar area with some games (pool, table-top football etc). We would recommend Mango Home Riverside as a unique place from which to explore the Mekong Delta.

Anyone going to this region I highly recommend a riverside location yo be based and this resort is beautiful.

We had a blast while staying here. The staffs were so nice, clean pool and tranquil atmosphere. Suitable for those who want to escape from the bustling of the urban :))) We had breakfast with the Ben Tre River view, chilled out at sunset lounge, watched the sky full of stars while taking night swim , and many more facilities to entertain. Such a good place to stay.

The most beautiful stay we have had in the five months we have been in Vietnam. The staff are super helpful and professional, the growns are incredibly taken care of and clean, the pool is in a great location with lots of sunchairs, and the most peaceful and quiet we have experienced in Vietnam. Thank you Mango home, see you next week . Mike and Kim from Canada 🇨🇦
