Description

The Dates Villa is a homestay in District 3, 2.1 km from the centre of Ho Chi Minh City, with air-conditioned rooms that each have a private bathroom and a kitchen area. It is built for travellers who want to cook for themselves and have more space than a standard hotel room gives, with rooms ranging from 25 m² doubles to a 70 m² family room.

Each room has a private bathroom with a shower, a bidet and a hairdryer, and a kitchen area with a refrigerator, microwave, kitchenware and electric kettle. Most rooms have a balcony or a terrace, and the terrace rooms look onto a quiet street. The Family Room is the largest, with two double beds, a dining area and room for four guests. Guests can relax in the garden or on the terrace, and a work desk is provided.

The villa suits families, couples and small groups who want a self-catering base with outdoor space near the city centre. Reception staff speak English and Vietnamese, and the property is non-smoking throughout.
