Mhontong Homestay

Me and my friend had an incredible stay at Mhontong. We were welcomed in and felt like part of the family. The location is in a quiet rural fishing town, the locals are all very kind and gave us lots of smiles as we explored the area. Our host went above and beyond to make our stay there the best it could be. We were given lots of reccomendations of what to do in the area and had a private boat tour arranged, taking us to all the less touristy places ! We were accompanied by one of the hosts who helped translate with the boat driver and looked after us on the trip. The view from the property itself is beautiful and right in the national park. We cannot reccomend to stay here enough! Thank you so much for everything. Alisha ans Hope

Loved my stay there. Located waterfront in the quiet local community. Sweet owner and her son. She lined up a great boat tour of the area. I highly reccomend!!

I am used to the dilapidated nature of bargain home stays but this was beyond that to actual neglect and disrepair. When we arrived the air conditioner was not working well and despite being the only guests there, we weren’t moved to another room. I can only imagine they were worse. They sent a repairman to fix it but it wasn’t fixed. There was rust all over, dangling wires, exposed holes etc. The shower had broken knobs, weak water pressure and was c very small. There are a couple nearby seafood restaurants that had fresh fish dishes that we enjoyed. There aren’t a lot of options in the area to visit the nearby temple and boat tours but I would try to find a different one from here. We stayed a couple nights and it got the job done but I wouldn’t recommend it.

This is one of our favorite stops in many many years of traveling. First of all we have to give major gratitude to Soisuda, who we affectionately nicknamed “Auntie” because she always made sure we had everything we needed, cooked amazing breakfasts, and set up one of the most phenomenal tours we have ever been on. She arranged transportation from and to two different destinations for us. We told her we didn’t want do a very touristy tour of the bay, and she arranged for us to visit all the hidden natural spots that were world class without any crowds at all great price. Hidden beaches, sea caves, nonstop adventure and we had these places all to ourselves! Exactly what we wanted! The rooms are very clean and had all the amenities we needed. The Wi-Fi is great as we work on the road! There are coffee shops, restaurants, local vendors, and a 7 Eleven within an easy walking distance. The temple in town rivals cathedrals in Paris in my opinion. The people all around the homestay were so friendly and would cheer us on as we ran in the mornings. 10 out of 10 Hostess and 10 out of 10 special experience! We’ll be back!

Superb view. Very nice host. Good for healing & relaxing. Lots of island to explore by long tail bot. Freshly delicious seafood
