Homestay

The Top Homestays in Da Lat

In southern Vietnam’s Central Highlands, the city of Da Lat, nicknamed “Le Petit Paris” due to being developed as a French resort town in the early 1900s, is surrounded by an abundance of pine trees, farmlands, and small villages. While there are plenty of options for overnight accommodations, choosing a homestay is both an affordable option as well as an incredible experience.

With low nightly costs, access to friendly locals, and the comforts of home, these options will most certainly enhance your experience in this European-inspired, university town. You may even be able to stay close enough to see Da Lat‘s miniature replicate of the Eiffel Tower!

When planning your trip, make sure to consider the time of year as the summers can be very humid. The best time to typically visit is between November and March, as a winter or spring retreat.

We’ve put together a carefully selected list of the best homestays in the Da Lat area below, in no particular order. Each one has its differences, but all are sure to satisfy with convenience and comfort. If you’re still looking afterward, maybe a local hostel would suit you.
