Lazy Bear Villa

The former owner of Lazy Bear Hostel has moved to a new address and got a new name: "Hoi An Baby Shark Hostel".

Rất tuyệt , sẽ tiếp tục ủng hộ cho lần sau

We arrived at this place in February and it had been shut for 2 months. We never got a response from the owner and booking.com took weeks to process a refund. Also meant at 9pm at night we were stranded in this area with nowhere to go during the Tet Holiday

Fantastic, I will be coming back

Overall nice place! Would get five stars if it was a little more affordable! Pool was surprisingly clean, and lovely blankets. Book exchange is cute (:

It was a nice and comfortable hostel. We stayed for three nights, so we were hoping to maybe get room service once to empty the trash etc. but otherwise everything was good. The lady at the reception was very friendly.

Very calm and spacious rooms.

Clean rooms and nice place to get to town!

Brilliant hostel, more like a villa experience ideal as a quiet base while you explore Hoi an and da nang. I would very much recommend particular for groups looking for a private room

A lovely hostel tucked away in Hoi An, just down the road from the old town. Rooms were extremely spacious and clean. Linh was also very accommodating, friendly and always ready to assist. I would recommend for friends, families and backpackers. We also loved the hostel bikes which were a lovely touch.❤️

Ich bin abends sehr spontan beim Lazy Bear angekommen, ohne vorher ein Zimmer gebucht zu haben. Die Besitzer*innen waren telefonisch erreichbar und mein Check-In verlief reibungslos. Ich habe dann am nächsten Tag beim Check-Out um 12:00 Uhr bezahlt. Das Haus ist gemütlich eingerichtet und liegt wunderbar ruhig: toller Pool, der super bei heißen Tagen zum chillen einläd, eine großer Ess-Wohnbereich und Fahrräder zum Leihen. Das Zimmer war super (mit Balkon), Bett war gemütlich und alles sauber!! Vielen Dank für die angenehme Nacht.

Great hostel, a bit far from old town, but you can just get a grab, rooms and the infrastructure is just the best ive seen so far.

Warning: this accommodation is closed. Please be aware that this accommodation is still available to book on Booking.com and Agoda, but it seems to have been closed for about two months. When we arrived, we found the doors locked and no one present. We were not informed in advance, which meant we had to urgently find alternative accommodation at the last minute. We were eventually informed and assisted by the neighbours. I strongly recommend choosing a different place to avoid the same situation.

Như homestay vậy đó. Nhỏ xin sạch đẹp. Nhân viên nhiệt tình dể thương. Cho chó vào. Bãi để xe hơi sát bên có mái che.

nhà nghỉ đẹp, sạch sẽ, yên tĩnh , giá cả hợp lí. Anh chủ thân thiện, nhiệt tình và chiều khách. Nói chung nhà như này đáng lên lựa chọn để nghĩ dưỡng . Nếu có dịp quay lại mình nhất định sẽ lại ủng hộ anh chủ🥰

Nó thực sự giống 1 ngôi nhà hơn là villa, thật sự thoải mái và yên tĩnh

Tôi đã ở đây cùng với gia đình và nơi đây thật sự yên tĩnh và thoải mái, anh chủ nhiệt tình và thân thiện

phòng đẹp và anh chủ nhiệt tìnhhh

Một nơi yên tĩnh thích hợp để ở dài hạn và nhất định sẽ quay lại nơi này

Phòng đẹp sạch sẽ, nhận viên thân thiện nhiệt tình dù mình không thường xuyên gặp mặt

If you’re looking for a privacy place to have a great vacation with your big fam/your colleague or your friend then this place is probably not a good choice Đồ dùng trong phòng (set kem đánh răng, bàn chải dùng 1 lần) không được fill đầy đủ,phòng có phòng không. Hơn nữa với quy mô này không fit với chữ ‘villa’ tí nào đâu ạ. Bên cạnh đó, team mình bỏ tiền thuê nguyên căn với giá gần 6tr vì muốn có không gian riêng tư nhưng đến nơi mới ngỡ ngàng nhận ra quản lý cũng ở chung luôn ? Trông cứ như cả đám đi đến nhà bạn chơi chứ không phải book nguyên căn ấy :) Đang nấu nướng thì khách hay người của home gì đấy không biết vào tìm quản lý xong ngồi luôn xuống khu vực bàn ăn bọn mình đang dọn ? Thêm nữa là bạn quản lý đi ra đi vào rất nhiều, cả đám đang chơi/nói chuyện các thứ mà cứ chốc chốc là bạn ấy lại lù lù xuất hiện, ngay cả buổi tối khi bọn mình đang ăn thì bạn cũng thản nhiên từ trên lầu đi xuống và đi thẳng ra ngoài. Sáng hôm sau bạn lại đi đâu đó và chả thèm khoá cửa cho cẩn thận, kết quả khi mình thức giấc thì thứ chào đón mình là hai con chó từ bên nhà hàng xóm qua đang đứng ngay ở khu vực bàn ăn ??? Đùa 😀 Chủ home có hiểu định nghĩa về việc ‘thuê nguyên căn’ là như nào không ạ 😀😀

Chúng tôi ở khách sạn này hai ngày đêm đồng thời chạy xe đi vòng quanh các con phố. Phố nhỏ nên cũng không cần nhiều thời gian để hoàn thành một vòng các nơi kể cả đường lên Vĩnh Điện.

Phòng ở đây rất đẹp, mới, sạch sẽ. Mình đặt phòng tối 20/05/2025 cho 4 người lớn và 1 trẻ em ( max 6 người ). sau đó thêm 1 người lớn và 1 trẻ em nữa, tổng là 7 người nhưng chủ nhà không thu thêm phí. À còn có máy giặt và sấy free nữa

Un petit hôtel tranquille et sympathique, joliment décoré. Il y a 8 chambres. Une toute petite piscine, agréable pour se détendre, après une journée de visites dans la chaleur.. Pas de service de chambre, il n’y a pas toujours quelqu’un à la réception mais chaque locataire peut rentrer avec le code. Il y a une cuisine et un grand frigo que chacun peut utiliser. Le lieu est assez calme et les chambres sont propres et bien conçu.

We loved our stay here! We originally booked for one night and received an early check in and room upgrade for free! Later in our trip we came back to Hoi An and booked another two night stay. The rooms are very clean, modern and have lots of personal touches. We throughly enjoyed our swims in the peaceful pool area. Reccomend Lazy Bear hostel to anyone visiting Hoi An 😊🐻

Phòng đẹp sạch sẽ giá rẻ, rất nhiệt tình view cũng đẹp gần trung tâm

We had a great experience at this hostel. The staff clearly made an effort to ensure our stay was as pleasant as possible. Excellent value for money. They also kindly allowed us to use the shower after check-out, which made a big difference before taking an overnight bus.

I really enjoyed my stay here. Very clean, modern yet homey, beautifully decorated, loved balcony, neighborhood near rice fields and quiet but easy grab ride or walk into old town. Delicious homemade breakfast, kind family, given a map and some recommendations upon arrival, responsive on WhatsApp. Binh has great sense of humor. Great laundry service and got me affordable taxi to airport last minute. Just what I needed for a solo break from dorms to recharge. Great WiFi and AC. Just bikes could be better, but I found one to rent in old town for cheap. They accept credit cards which not all places do and that was very helpful. I love little touches like the small library with books I could read :) Thank you for everything!!! Highly recommend staying here.

4 nachtjes verbleven bij dit hostel. Onwijs lieve en gastvrije familie. Het hostel ligt tussen het strand en de oude stad. Door de gratis fietsen die je mag gebruiken, zijn deze 2 locaties goed te bereiken. We hadden een fijne, ruime kamer met heerlijke bedden!

Mer som ett familjärt homestay! Fantastisk boende 15 minuters cykeltur från Hoi An Ancient Town. Gullig personal, gratis cykeluthyrning, trevlig frukost och lugnt område. Vi hade problem med luftkonditioneringen och elen som kom och gick. Vi sa till och ägarna löste det snabbt. Väldigt serviceminded och tillmötesgående!

The best place I've stayed in Vietnam. Run by a lovely family who couldn't do more to help you. Free bike rental made it so easy to visit the beaches and old town. The breakfast each morning was so tasty and a great way to meet other people staying in the Hostel. They even booked us transport to Da Nang for the same day with about an hours notice. Can't recommend enough.

Incredible place to stay in Hoi An, the staff were warm and dedicated to giving guest an incredible staff. Regarding the conditions of the hostel, all the installations were in spotless conditions. Simply perfect for the price.

Had a really great stay at Lazy Bear Hostel, booked a private room and was really reasonable, beds were comfy and bathroom all worked well. Really good to have choice at free breakfast and food was very tasty! Location is a bit out of town but is nice and quiet and close to a beach and taxis into centre were really cheap. We also had some issues with buses we had booked and hosts were super helpful in sorting out a new bus after we had a few cancelled.

Anbefaler virkelig dette hostellet. Vi skulle egentlig være i Hoi An i 5 dager, men ble i 3 uker på grunn av hostellet og de fine folkene som driver det. Familien som eier og driver det er veldig hyggelige, og det er lett å føle seg hjemme hos dem. I tillegg er de veldig hjelpsomme, og jeg følte meg alltid trygg hos dem. Hostellet ligger også fint til mellom gamle byen og stranden, og det er lett å bruke syklene man får låne gratis til å komme seg til begge steder. Hostellet ligger også i et rolig område, noe vi satte stor pris på det man fikk en pause fra bråket i byen. Hostellet i deg selv er veldig pent og åpent, samtidig som det alltid var fint og rent i alle rom. Vi bodde både på trippel rom og i sovesal, og begge hadde god plass, gode senger og fin innredning. Alt i alt er dette virkelig et sted jeg ville anbefalt, og er sted jeg kommer tilbake til! Tusen takk til familien for all den fine tusen hos dere❤️🐻

Honestly the cruisiest place to stay in Hoi An. If you are looking for relaxation and comfort then come here.

Booked for 2 nights and ended up staying much longer. It was very easy to feel at home here and convenient to get to the beach or town. Free breakfast and free bicycles if you are chasing a budget stay! Also, there are no bunk beds so you get more privacy in your dorm room.

Very fine stay, Clean and homely and the hosts are very helpful to make sure you have a benefical time in Hoi An. Will definitely come here next time.

Fantastic service! 🙏🏻

This is one of the most pretty hostels I’ve stayed in. Speaking of which, if you stay in a room and not a dormitory, like I did, there’s nothing hostel about this place. I’ve stayed in hotels that do not come close to the Lazy bear hostel in regard to interior, cleanliness etc. And at this price? Lonely planet is right, this probably is the best bang for buck in town. The only downside I guess would be the location. It’s a little off, but if you unlike me don’t mind borrowing one of the [free] bikes you reach the city centre in just a few minutes. And riding a Grab is dirt cheap so if your feet are sore after walking, there’s no reason not to grab one. Pun intended. I should also mention the owners are both sweet and attentive. And they’ll happily arrange both pick up and drop off at the airport at a lower cost than say Grab or taxi. Would I stay here again if I come to Hoi an? Yes. Without hesitation.

I honestly wouldn’t recommend this hostel. I had booked for 5 nights and stayed for 1. I arrived very late at night to find I had to stay in a very damp room that stank of mould. The walls were actually damp as was the bedding. I explained to the owner in the morning that I would t be staying. She asked me to cover the fees from booking.com which I did. I paid them 1.1m vnd (about £37.50). I was incredibly annoyed when I was whatsapped by the owner and she threatened to charge the entire amount on top of that! Utter scam! I have attached pictures of the damp room and the WhatsApp’s sent by the owner. Overall I wouldn’t stay here. The mould was so extensive (it looked like it had been wiped off) that it caused me to have a cough for quite a few days after.

I was a little hesitant when I saw the name of the hostel. But it was not like that, on the contrary, it was very clean, very well designed. and it was very quiet. I really liked their branding and attention. The staff was very smiling and kind, we had a great conversation.

Highly recommend this hostel to those looking for a place to relax in Hoi An. The dorm is great with 2 ACs, fans, and a balcony, bathroom is excellent and clean. The family running the place are very welcoming, friendly, and helpful! They also have really good banana pancakes for breakfast! 5 min drive/40 min walk to old town or beach, or you can use bikes here for free too.

Wir wählten dieses Hostel aufgrund der vielen positiven Bewertungen, wurden jedoch enttäuscht. Die Lage außerhalb von Hoi An war uns bewusst, jedoch waren die zur Verfügung stehenden Fahrräder in einem sehr schlechten Zustand, was uns zwang, häufig Taxis zu nutzen. Zusätzlich war die Straße vor dem Hostel während unseres Aufenthalts im Bau, wodurch der Zugang erschwert wurde. Uns wurde gesagt, dass wir nicht vor 20 Uhr zurückkehren sollten, da die Straße trocknen müsse. Als wir um 21:30 Uhr zurückkamen, war die Straße jedoch noch immer nicht passierbar, und wir mussten über Latten in den Eingang klettern. Es war unverständlich, warum wir trotz dieser Umstände überhaupt aufgenommen wurden. Die Gastgeber schienen mehr an eigenen Geschäften interessiert zu sein und empfahlen uns hauptsächlich Läden von Freunden und Verwandten. Besonders unangenehm war eine Situation beim Frühstück, als die Gastgeberin sehr aufdringlich wurde und uns zu einem Spa ihrer Freundin drängen wollte, obwohl wir kein Interesse hatten. Nach mehrfacher Andeutung, dass wir früher abreisen könnten, taten wir dies, erhielten aber keinen Rabatt und mussten die vollen Kosten plus Gebühren zahlen. Zudem stellte sich heraus, dass das Hostel gegenüber Booking angab, wir wären gar nicht dort gewesen, vermutlich um negative Bewertungen zu vermeiden. Die Sauberkeit der Zimmer ließ ebenfalls zu wünschen übrig, mit Flecken auf der Bettwäsche und tierischen Besuchern. Das Frühstück war in Ordnung, aber etwas zu fettig. Insgesamt haben wir uns in diesem Hostel nicht wohlgefühlt.

Absolutely marvellous stay, everything was perfectly in order! Big recommendation if you want a nice place to stay, away from the intensity of the city!
