Fantastic.....Fantastic.....Fantastic. we absolutely loved our stay here. Great breakfast, great service, great room, great pool....just everything was great. Literally the only thing we complained about was how we couldn't easily light cigarettes on our balcony because of such a great ocean breeze. And we by no means really complained about that problem.

A charming and stunningly gorgeous boutique hotel that will make your Instagram friends jealous. Because it's a family operation, the experience is very warm and friendly. One recommendation I would have for Serenity is to have a small 1 page handout of recommended local shops, restaurants, cafe, etc. and 2nd page a small map. 100% recommend to stay at least 3 nights. Happy travels :)

A week of perfection
This place could not have been better run and maintained. The rooms were comfortable and immaculate as were the common areas. The pool area was great for relaxing or just watching the sea every day. Comfortable sun beds with clean, colorful mats made sitting by the pool very enjoyable. John, his wife Thuy, her daughter Phoung and her husband, Ray, go out of their way to make sure everything is perfect. They have great suggestions of things to do, help with arrangements and just do anything needed to make your stay full of great memories. Each room has an outside sitting area with tables and chairs. Aesthetically, the decorations, plants, textures and colors add to the relaxing vibe of the accommodations. Breakfast was individually made with a selection;of about 7 different mains, but always inlcuded fresh fruit, banana bread, juice, coffee and tea. Walk out the front door and you are right in the heart of Mui Ne and its great variety of restaurants and street food. This small boutique hotel is truly a gem and their owners are the shining stars that keep it that way. We wouldn’t hesitate to return and wish all of our accommodations in Vietnam were this well run.

Outstanding Hotel !
My wife and I just spent a week at this wonderful hotel. The ambience is perfect, they cook delicious breakfasts and lunches, the hotel design is stunningly beautiful. The views from everywhere on the premises are breathtaking. John and Thuy are always available to answer questions about the area. Their suggestions for dinner were spot on, we frequented two outstanding restaurants throughout our stay. Already, we are thinking about a return visit.

가족이 운영하는 작고 아름다운 호텔입니다. 매우 깨끗하게 관리되어 있으며, 직원들도 매우 친절합니다. 호텔에 요청하면 교통편이나 지프 투어 예약을 해줍니다. 조금 비싸더라도 see side room이 더 좋은 것 같습니다. 호텔과 연결된 해변이 있으나, 폭이 매우 좁으며, 밀물 때에는 사라집니다.

Underbart ställe.
Ett fantastiskt ställe. Otroligt trevliga ägare som kändes väldigt måna om oss. Fräscha och vackert inredda rum. För oss en oas i Mui Ne. Nära till flera trevliga restauranger(Modjo en favorit). Pool med havsutsikt passade oss med en femåring väldigt bra. Flera frukostalternativ. Stranden något begränsad på grund av jorderosionen. Skulle vi någonsin komma tillbaka till Mui Ne skulle vi garanterat bo här.

Beautiful hotel at the beach
The hotel is super beautiful, the pool area is perfect and there is also stairways down to the beach so you can swim in the sea as well and watch the pretty sunset at the beach. Breakfast is very good with eggs, fruits, waffle, coffee etc. The rooms are spacious and very clean and modern. The locatio is good, next to many restaurants and bars.

An cosy and awesome resort for our vacation :)
Even if we just stayed 2 nights in Serenity by the sea, it was enough to take memorable moments. There were innumerable good things we had: a modern style interior from entrance, beautiful swimming pool view, comfy room, responsive staff at the front desk, and cleanliness kept by the housekeeper. (I know I listed so many things but I would like to organize them cuz really good enough!) Best of all, the resort owners, John and Thuy's family were very friendly and kind. They did their best to give us better satisfaction. We really hope to meet all of them again in the very near future, regardless of the countries, Australia, USA, South Korea, Japan, even in Viet nam again! XOXO, Sophia and Jace

힐링이란 이런것이다
5박을 예약했었다. 두분의 주인분들과 직원분들 모두 너무 친절하셨다. 오픈한지 아직 1년도 되지않아 엄청 깨끗했으며 건축자재들도 고급스러웠다. 무엇보다 가족처럼 대해주셔서 저희 가족들에게도 5박의 무이네 여행은 정말 오래오래기억에 남을것같다. 위치도좋아 바로 주변에 다양한 식당과 가게들도많고 바로앞에 무이네편의점도있어 편리했다. 아직 오픈한지 오래되지않아 여행사버스직원이 잘 모르는것도 같았지만 메인도로변에있어 찾기쉽다. 수영장물이 너무깨끗하고 주인아저씨가 매일마다 엄청관리를 하셔서 그런지 수질도 엄청좋다. 엄청깨끗한 바닷물? 소금맛이 난다. 수영하고나면 피부가 뽀송뽀송...정말 5일간 힐링다운 힐링을 하고 온것같다. 규모가 크진않지만 좋은숙소로 추천하고싶다.
