The owner of the property had a drunken party on the deck below our bungalow. It went on from 8pm until 2am. We did not sleep. There is hot water for about 1 minute. The bed sagged and was really old. This is a run down hostel. It shouldn’t be on Expedia. We left 2 nights early but paid for 4 nights

The staff at Carambola Bungalow were amazing. They went above and beyond by asking someone to pick us up at 4am and bring us to the place we were staying. The location was beautiful, service was great, and food was awesome. Would stay here again.

We stayed at Carambola for one night, after our two-day trek with Oxalis tours. It was perfect. The location is very close to the tour company, and the hospitality and friendliness of Ha and his family was genuinely warm. Rooms are super comfortable. Food is delicious. Perfect place to rest and regroup while traveling and after a long hike. Thank you, Ha!

Highly recommend this stay as it was a lovely atmosphere, well maintained and great service from the family running it. It looked much better than others in the area, its a bit out of town but thats the attraction and its easy to get a cab or ride into town. dining options around this area are a bit limited but the restaurant service on site is pretty good. If your here for the outdoors, this is a great choice. highly recommended.

Beautiful property on the river. We stayed in the river facing bungalow. Woke up to a beautiful view everyday. There is not much around but they had all the necessities. One night we walked into town to have dinner, only about 1km away. We were able to rent a scooter directly from property which was very convenient. The owner organized everything for us, in terms of getting to property, tours and then a drive to airport. It was fantastic! They have a restaurant on site where we had dinner and breakfast. Food was excellent!
