Da Lat Homestays: 3 Places That Feel Like Home (But Better)
Slow Down in the Highlands
The best way to experience Da Lat isn't from a hotel lobby — it's from a hammock on a misty hillside, or a garden cottage beside a stream. These three homestays capture the highland spirit.
The Wilder-nest
Nestled in a green valley near Tuyen Lam Lake, The Wilder-nest feels like a miniature Northern European village dropped into the Vietnamese highlands. Wooden roofs covered in climbing vines, a stream flowing day and night, and mornings that begin with sunshine and forest bird songs. It's the kind of place that makes you cancel your next destination.
LengKeng Da Lat
A poetic hilltop retreat near Xuan Huong Lake where every detail is curated for slow living. Gardens, hammocks, pine-scented air, and a quiet that lets you actually hear yourself think. Close enough to the city to explore, far enough to feel like an escape.
Mooka's Home
For the backpacker with taste. This family-run hilltop hostel has been welcoming travelers for years with spacious rooms, a communal kitchen, and warm hospitality. Ten minutes to city center on foot, with both private rooms and dorms. The traveler community here keeps people coming back season after season.
